This is gonna piss people off maybe.

But I look at this picture and think that there's a hell of a lot less police than civilians there. The way we tend to accept authority, even when it is vile, without even considering the possibility of using numbers to just overwhelm and deny the bullshit is depressing.

Conservatives have always been oppressors. It's just who they are at their core. There is no room in a modern culture for oppressive, hate-based ideologies like conservatism. Action will be required to treat this disease. Be prepared.
