    One encouraging thing about protests is how far they've come in organization since the early days. I'm starting to think all of this is training us to the point where we can have multi-day protests as part of a national strike.

    The most revealing part about the charges is that they show the system cannot contemplate situations where cops can do wrong. Civil lawsuit alleging federal causes of action? There's QI for that. Internal affairs investigating? There's police unions (who are also internal affairs) for that. In the rarest of cases, a DA investigating you for criminal charges? There's grand juries, a complicit State Supreme Court that grants immunity to its prosecutors, and an uncountable number of Supreme Court-enshrined defenses, for that.
