People in California are fuming about all of this. Many people around here are comparing the police response to today’s event, to the police response to BLM protests over the summer.

 

Because police is apolitical and acts the same way no matter who's in charge of the country :dunno: However I don't suspect the woman who got killed today will get as much if any respect like some of the BLM martyrs did.

Well. At least more Republicans turned against Trump after this including Loeffler (which may also show that she knows that she lost) who didn't object to the Georgia result afterall 

Republican Establishment knows it has lost. They tried to stop him from becoming Republican nominee in 2016, failed and then tried to control him and again failed. But now that he has lost, they will have their revenge. They will make sure that any remaining Trump supporter will become persona non-grata in Republican party. Of course, there will be a significant portion of Republican party that is still firmly with Trump, but RE would be hoping that with Trump out of picture, they can force a similar split in Democratic party also with Progressives going against Democratic Establishment.

    • I’m home with the flu. Tomorrow I will start my job as Swedish jury. It will actually be something good to do when I’m not feeling well. 
    • preliminary entry list for the World Championships (non-Olympic weights) 2024   https://uww.org/article/world-championships-non-olympic-weights-2024-entries   Abdulrashid Sadulaev won the Russian trials yesterday (he didn't look good though) and therefore his name is here, as well as another Olympic Champion Zaur Uguev. with David Taylor, Jordan Burroughs and Reza Geraei we have at least 5 Olympic Champions in the list    also interesting to see lots of guys (Berdimuratov, Ganbaatar, Tsakulov, Kaipanov etc) cut weight massively from their usual Olympic weight to wrestle here.  which shows the importance of a World Championship title    ps: 2024 Olympians are not allowed to wrestle here.
