I served as a neutral legal observer during the protests. I documented law enforcement and officials’ interactions with protesters. #SantaFe #NewMexico #LawFedi 2/
My photos from the event include many of #NewMexico state police vehicles’ location and license plates and of state police themselves. Ditto for Santa Fe City Police. 3/
Other photographers concentrated on the protestors. Here are some of their images. 4/

“Signs of Fascism” protest outside the Lensic, where Amy Coney Barrett was promoting her book. 6/
Protest took different forms. The group Dare To Struggle was there, loud and profane. A different approach than the singers from Indivisible Santa and the Signs of Fascism group. 7/
Democracy and free speech, in all its glorious messiness, on the streets of Santa Fe. 8/8
Don RayOne important thing is to make the fascism and tRump enablers feel uncomfortable.
John Breen@donray @heidilifeldman One reason I've carried a sign saying "ICE is a Gestapo, CECOT is a Concentration Camp" for over 6 months to local #Indivisible street rallies (which some fellow protesters thought extreme) was so little boys and girls driving by would ask their parents "What is a Gestapo mommy ?".
That's almost been my entire purpose and goal.
But to make the parents uncomfortable if they can't explain why a Gestapo is bad, and what it is.

Our species should never underestimate how chillingly brutal some of our number can be.
Far, far more dangerous than all other primates.
