   @StephanieMoore Hope your son’s otherwise ok + please thank him from me :)

   (Assuming it’s too much to hope for they the pig fell flat on his face?*)

   * no disrespect intended to actual pigs, who, unlike cops, are lovely creatures

     So I learned that yesterday, a cop tried to sucker punch my oldest. The cop missed. My oldest had participated in a gathering commemorating their campus’s encampment to protest the Gaza genocide. The (weak sauce, pansy) university president called in cops to monitor the peaceful gathering. I guess they got bored because it was peaceful and decided to arrest a student for carrying a sign. As they hauled that student to a van, my son and others walked alongside and some cop tried to swing at him.
