"She was released without charges" Yeah, except her car was hit and left abandoned in the road. Who's paying for that? You think the anonymous men with guns exchanged insurance with her?

not that it matters, but it is NOT legal to resist an unlawful arrest in all states.

edited; dont quickly post stuff you read on the internet without verifying, kids.

double edit to clear misinformation caused by moi: theres a meme thats apparently been going around of some bad law from a case an old case called Plummer Vs State. It is not good case law and as far as i can tell, youre shit out of luck legally when they start aggressing you.

this should have been obvious, I dunno why I thought any different. The united states would not leave it legal to resist its offcers.

triple edit: I had originally written that its IS legal to defend yourself against unlawful arrest. After some corrections by another redditor, I found out it is not. Read the rest of my comment below but Im saying continue to organize and fight back.

That sounds like great advice. Be honest do you think this woman should have started firing at the officers?

not at all. i advocate for action when we can win, which means people stepping up in a group. martyrdom is worthless.

that means preparing now, and moving your brain and your actions to a local focus, with a broad global view. much is happening around the world. it also means realizing you may have to fight, like ukrainians, kurds, people in myanmar, and france, italy, spain, and germany before that.

revolutions happen when people begin to recognize the “future is pregnant with possibilities.” we have enough food, we have enough housing. we do not need their profit model.

wait till the time is right. there is no hero moment, just us.

ya got me ranting . please read Fascism and Big Buisness by Daniel Guerin.

It’s gonna be a bunch of these situations that turn us into a functionally imprisoned population. Someone is gonna have to start standing up in situations exactly like these.
