Way before Jan 6, when a Trump speech was followed by his fans storming the capitol, there was the PBA riot, when a Giuliani speech was followed by NYPD cops storming NY City Hall, calling Dinkins, the city's 1st Black mayor, the n-word, and threatening him with harm.

Giuliani won the next election.

Why were the cops so mad at Dinkins?

Well, NYPD were beating and killing a lot of people, mostly Black and brown. The board responsible for police oversight was ineffective, as it was half cops and half civilians. That's like the "Chicken Safety Oversight Board" being half chickens and half foxes.🤡

After a Dominican man was killed, mayor Dinkins committed two unforgivable sins:

1) He met with the victim's family, and invited them to city hall.

2) He recommended that while policy boards should have both law enforcement and civilian members, the civilian oversight board should be... well... 100% civilian.

Then the Giuliani speech and city hall riot happened.

Then there was a very racist campaign for mayor, that Dinkins lost and Giuliani won.

Then Giuliani did his "broken windows" policing, resulting in significant pain to NYC Black and brown communities.

Then he supported the Patriot Act to further "War on Drugs" poor Black folk.

Then he did the election stuff that he is still paying for.

He was never "America's mayor."

Life is like… A box of chocolates…

Getting more expensive and the taste is being ruined by corporations skimping out on what makes it good

MAGA: Throw them in jail for burning the U.S. flag!

Me: Actually, throw those in jail for proudly flying flags of the traitorous Confederacy. Those assholes may as well burn the U.S. flag.

MAGA: NOOOOO!!! That’s my … heritage!
