Democrats in Tulsa

if you're in good health, and wear a mask please note that the trump goons just had a protester arrested for wearing a "I can't breathe" shirt and sitting in the street praying. She a ticket to the event. I encourage others to follow her example if you're so inclined.

Imagine how they'd feel if they had a cop's knee on their neck for over 8 minutes.

And I wear one because inconvenience is no excuse when lives are on the line! This needs to be explained to these deplorables?

I was one of very few in my nearby tourist town wearing a mask yesterday, where I'd gone to buy fresh (organic) produce. It was classy, and matched my outfit. 😆

They surmised that the cops did not get rough with her was the fact that there were do many people videoing the incident. You could see the shirt she was wearing and she did have a mask on. Her actions were totally peaceful. If she did have a ticket and she was acting peacefully they had no grounds to remove her.

we need more like her. Do something peaceful, express your opinion, and get removed by the cops. Get on the MSM. Get the message out.

It's their mess. Leave them to it, and only demonstrate from distances safe in every respect.
