4.15.21. Chicago
The mayor, police, and prosecutor lied about Adam Toledo being armed to justify that a CPD officer murdered a 13 year old who was unarmed and had his arms up (according to body cam footage released today but that I will not share). And the mayor has the audacity to ask for peace before releasing the video. Downtown is already closed. There is no reforming police, they are not an institution of public safety, all they can do is cause further harm.
They lied! In order to smear the name of a 13 YEAR OLD SEVENTH-GRADER the police killed!
Abolish police!
Rest in peace Adam Toledo.

Here’s a hot take: villains should be relatable.
Not every villain, not every time, and certainly not to everyone at once, but there should be moments. We should, occasionally, be able to see ourselves in the bad guys, be able to understand how they got there.
Because it reminds us not to fucking go there.
Antis who get upset about villains having relatable qualities (often couched as being “romanticized” or “woobified”) are people who cannot bear to ever think of themselves as having the capability of being wrong.
Every human alive is capable of being a horrible person. Relatable villains remind us to keep an eye on that shit.

Horne gained national attention in 2006 when she said she stopped officer Greg Kwiatkowski's chokehold on Neal Mack.
"Neal Mack looked like he was about to die, so had I not stepped in, he possibly could have. He was handcuffed and being choked." —Cariol Horne

Not to get emo on main but you ever think about how the troop sang about their dreams of finding “a girl worth fighting for”, and they think their girl worth fighting for is one of romance, but the song abruptly comes to a halt when they find a different girl worth fighting for.
A tiny girl that had been killed at the hands of the Huns. A child too weak, too small to have any chance of withstanding the murderous invaders. That is their girl worth fighting for.
