(#5971) Pick a side: Try to protect human rights for all or not

      Only you can decide how your existence is lived. Do you want every human being to have freedom, liberty, and justice or do you want that only for yourself and those who you think deserve it? Because anything short of wanting each human being to have the right to their own life is discounting democracy. We are at a crossroads in Los Angeles. The trumps are playing out a scenario where they use extrajudicial tactics, nothing short of vigilantism, to arrest and detain individuals who are being deprived due process. The trumps are using masked individuals to kidnap people off the streets with no warrant issued from a judge.
     We here in America had been a beacon of liberty up until the trumps and now with the trumps using the same oppressing playbook as the tyrant putin we are no longer a "shining city on a hill". I don't normally use passages from the bible but in this case it is applicable. No more is there a beacon of hope as an example for the rest of the world. Instead it is the opposite. Where the downtrodden are treated to the same effects that made them downtrodden. So pick a side. Do you support the method of trump because this has always been his method, bullying, cruelty, and brutality to force his agenda of destroying democracy to bring about a life time power role like putin has for himself.
     California is now the flashpoint although other states are also involved. But here is where trump is coming full bore to exert his force. There is only one way to stop trump and that is through defiance. If we Californians do not stand up to trump and block him from using us as his tools of division then he will succeed in turning our state into his playground. Democracy is on the line here and if we don't nullify trump through resistance then we are all next for subjugation and punishment. We here cannot relent in our effort to stop the harm that is breaking our democracy. Pick a side wisely because the rest of your existence depends upon it.
