CW: Death, Police Murder

Hundreds of people have taken to the streets over the last few days, to decry the police murder of Sayed Faisal, a 20 year old CVS employee and student in the #Boston suburb of #Cambridge, #Massachusetts.

Responding to a 911 call, police arrived on the scene to find Sayed cutting himself with a knife and claim that after asking him to disarm himself and then shooting a "less-lethal projectile," he lunged at him, leading police to open fire, killing him.

However, local media reports that "surveillance video and witness accounts suggest Faisal was running from police, trying to hurt himself," when he was shot and killed.

Community members claim that Faisal was in the midst of a mental health crisis and needed support and instead was shot and killed by law enforcement. This killing follows an ongoing pattern of police murdering people in the midst of a mental health episode.

I've been researching how ancient civilizations cleaned their butts after pooping (I'm writing a book!) and y'all, the Ancient Greeks were SUPER punk rock. They used bits of broken ceramic like a scoop (don't worry - the edges were smoothed out) and sometimes THE BITS OF POTTERY WERE INSCRIBED WITH THE NAMES OF THEIR ENEMIES.

They literally wiped their butts with their enemies' names. I am in awe.

Computers used to scream out in pain when we connected them to the Internet.

This was a clue and we just didn't listen.

Semafor said today that "a critical mass of conservatives do not trust McCarthy to lead them..."

Conservatives. Is that what they are?

John Boehner's description of the same crowd in his memoir:

"What they're really interested in is chaos... They want to throw sand in the gears of the hated federal government until it fails."

Are the sowers of chaos properly called "conservatives?"

Is MAGA conservative?

Why do #journalists with a commitment to accuracy maintain this fiction?
