My fear is that the next one will be worse.

With the artillery that’s out there these days, it’s almost a certainty.

Police have been taught that the only way to deal with anyone who doesn't immediately comply is through violence. And increased militarization doesn't help. We live in a police state but the narratives created by the ruling class have made people forget it

But what if a nuclear bomb drives a truck through the crowd and stabs everyone?? Please disregard the police beating and gassing people over there, think about how horrible it would be if a bad actor made it in there!
