Dozens arrested after authorities fire tear gas at 'No Kings' protesters

More than 70 protesters were arrested Saturday evening after authorities shot tear gas and pepper balls into the crowd, leaving at least one teen with an eye wound and others with skin burns, according to demonstrators and police.

I consider that "one" to match up to "Tank Man" (e.g. Tiananmen Square)

Some day - someone will commission a statue of this interaction.

Unfortunately, it is a timeless image.

This famous photo was taken in San Jose, CA during the George Floyd protests. SJ cops shot their bias trainer, Derrick Sanderlin, in the nuts. They are violent freaks. Her love & courage inspire. Solidarity forever.

@FranceskaMann @mastodonmigration Thanks, I hadn't seen that one.

@avuko @mastodonmigration I often think of how better the world would've been if Clinton or Harris had won.

[avuko@infosec.exchange]

@CStamp @mastodonmigration agreed. Although ideally we’d get actual matriarchic societies eventually, not women as temporary leaders in a patriarchal political hierarchy.

But perfect is the enemy of done, so hell yeah.

[nadiapurge@musician.social]

@mastodonmigration the person in costume seems keenly aware too. Lol

[cstamp@mastodon.social]

@avuko @mastodonmigration Gotta set precedents.

@mastodonmigration Adam Curtis has no doubt got this bookmarked for his next documentary already

[nazokiyoubinbou@mastodon.social]

@mastodonmigration I do think you're right about that. This one is going to really blow up on them. They had to have known this would happen. Imagine not caring...

[dekablack@mastodon.social]

@mastodonmigration Iconic for this era indeed.

[atraidez@infosec.exchange]

@mastodonmigration same as it ever was.

[pauldavisthefirst@fosstodon.org]

@nazokiyoubinbou @mastodonmigration when you say "blow up on them", what do you imagine happening, and who is "them" ?

@mastodonmigration

Well played. This is exactly where we are rn

@nazokiyoubinbou@mastodon.social @mastodonmigration@mastodon.online It's a protester in cosplay. It's a neat symbolic photo, but it's not like there's gonna be any more consequences for arresting "lady liberty" than any other of their abuses.
