Catie Laffoon on Instagram: "LA is in the midst of a MILITARY COUP and nobody is talking about it except the people they are trying to arrest and imprison. The chief of police of the LAPD, Jim McDonnell has openly stated he will not enforce laws against 🧊. He has openly stated the LAPD will not enforce misdemeanors against 🧊. The LAPD is picking and choosing which laws they enforce and against whom and they are ignoring the explicit directives and instructions of the Governor, Gavin Newsom @cagovernor , the Mayor of LA Karen Bass @mayorofla and LA’s City Council. They are following the directives of DHS and 🧊 to violate our rights and arrest community members for dissent. I don’t know what else you call that but a military coup. This should be one of the biggest stories in America. Ask yourself why it isn’t? This David and Goliath story isn’t one of faith. It’s one of community. Goliath isn’t afraid of David’s rock, but Goliath is scared of what David’s fearlessness to throw that rock represents - when communities get inspired, power becomes vulnerable to cooperation because REAL power isn’t gained through fear. Real power inspires people. Real power comes from every day people who have the courage to come together and stand as one ✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 📹 @ericanders 🙏🏼"
