The sniper squeezed off more than 70 rounds from his rooftop perch, randomly picking off victims below at the July Fourth celebration in the affluent Chicago suburb, police said.

I'm sure this won't be used as fuel to ramp up the war on trans people :doomjak: beyond terrified for my trans siblings and basically any gender non-conforming folks.

    I saw the PSL out in Chicago on Sunday. 16 communists in a park shouting into a megaphone and holding signs was enough to elicit 4 Chicago police and the paddy wagon driving in circles around the park. The intent is very much to suppress any kind of leftist organization. I think the increasing anti-trans rhetoric is part of the suppression because every left organization I've been in has had several trans members.
