Love it when a news outlets uncritically just parrot whatever cops tell them.

        Nah you're not wrong entirely. If he's convicted then libs will just wipe their hands clean and claim this as an example that the system works. I know this is borderline accelerationism but its also pragmatic, we know the system doesn't work and that cops like this almost always get to walk away. Remember the riots in LA didn't really start until after his attackers were acquitted.

            That's the worst outcome and my fear as well. We can only wait, watch and also FUCKING AGITATE.

                Talk to people. Force people to remember this. I did all day today at work, most people didn't even know this trial was taking place. People really are tuning out right now because they think things will get better with Trump gone and its our responsibility to constantly remind them that they aren't.
