      Of course they could fire on civilians. This ain’t new folks.

      Tin soldiers and Nixon coming

      We’re finally on our own

      This summer I hear the drumming

      Four dead in Ohio

      Gotta get down to it

      Soldiers are cutting us down

      Should have been done long ago

      What if you knew her

      And found her dead on the ground

      How can you run when you know?

      (Funny anecdote, step-mom was a student at Kent State and was on campus. She had no idea the shooting was happening.)

      I am beyond tired of this thoughtless take. “You can’t murder me, that’s illegal!” “You can’t harass me for being homosexual, that’s illegal!” “You can’t slam me into the ground and arrest me for nothing, that’s illegal!” Just. Fucking. Watch them. It was illegal the first time they did it too.

      My #1 issue with the Democrats. I’m not sure how they talk about unprecedented times so much without actually acting on it.
