After yesterday's mass shooting at a church in Minneapolis, this cartoon by Bill Bramhall from a few years ago is once again making the rounds on social media.
"A rifle, a shotgun and a pistol had been lawfully bought by the shooter recently, O’Hara said, adding it was believed they acted alone."
~ Guardian
"Trump tanking the economy, going full socialist dictator, & unleashing the National Guard is perfectly fine - ditto mass shootings & gun violence. MAGA only cares whether the shooter is transgender."
~ Wajahat Ali

Just kidding. It was over a restaurant logo."

The current air quality index for #Minneapolis, #Chicago, almost all of #Minnesota, #Wisconsin and much of #Iowa, #Illinois and #Michigan is currently hovering around 175-200, unhealthy for everyone. Protect yr lungs and wear a mask out there fam!

In Nov, a federal #jury found Brett Hankison, the #Louisville #police officer, #guilty of violating #BreonnaTaylor’s #CivilRights during a March 2020 police raid in which she was fatally shot, becoming the first officer directly involved in the case to be convicted on #criminal charges.
Hankison faced a maximum sentence of life in prison.
#BreonnaTaylor died weeks before the #Minneapolis police killing of #GeorgeFloyd. The deaths helped ignite nationwide protests seeking greater police #accountability over the use of #ExcessiveForce against #Black people.
Dhillon’s memo says the #DOJ *respects* the jury’s verdict & that the conviction means Hankison will probably never be able to serve as a police officer or own a firearm. [unless of course #Trump pardons him]

A Minneapolis pediatrician said he felt pressured to “fall in line” with child abuse specialist Dr. Nancy Harper and her team.
Then he was given a choice: resign or be fired.
