Boycott US

Overview:
The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.
Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.
America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.
America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.

Authorities are claiming they were unable to know who he was at the time, and treated him as a potential threat.
You are going to get to hear that kind of verbiage a lot over the next few years
They were only following orders
happily
Fucking hate cop talk. The language they use in their reports is disgusting. They probably have a template that they just slightly modify. Template is already full of lies.
Of course they have a template, cops can barely read or write, they wouldn't be able to report anything without serious hand-holding.
He stood up and announced he was a US Senator. The very first thing he did was identify himself. If they're deaf then they shouldn't be on active duty outside a desk job.
I'd like to hear (from the Authorities) what identified him particularly as a threat amongst all the other people in the room.
This is almost copy pasted from the shit they actually re saying.
