‘light ’em up!’

“A deep­er look into the records of 34 of­fi­cers who shot un­armed peo­ple in 2015 and 2016 shows that more than half had ob­tained two or few­er hours of de-es­ca­la­tion train­ing since at least 2012. Only one of­fi­cer had re­ceived 40 hours, which is con­sid­ered op­ti­mal.”
—Cur­tis Gilbert, Not Trained to Not Kill

I watched a video where over a half dozen cops in a line fired into a crowd, and I flashed on the Rev­o­lu­tion­ary War.

The way the two op­pos­ing armies would stand in a line in front of each oth­er fir­ing their weapons. It was freaky and kind of hor­ri­fy­ing.

No, they were not us­ing lead bul­lets to­day, but bul­lets just the same.

I fear one of these days the cops will push just hard enough to force peo­ple to bring guns to fight back.

It will hap­pen, it is des­tined to hap­pen, it is in­evitable.

A blood­bath will en­sue, the Kent State shoot­ing will seem like a pic­nic.
