   Both. I live near the epicenter of the George Floyd uprising; ask me about “letting LE do their job.” My answer will be that they •started• the uprising.

   But I do have some hope that local police are not cut from the same cloth as, say, National Guard.

     @strangeculprits @inthehands I suppose that if law enforcement fails their oath to defend the Constitution, we'll muster out to do their job for them. But they deserve the opportunity to do the job they signed up for and not to have to deal with a counter protest. Local governments asked activists to stay home on #Jan6 and that was the right call.
