“Black people need some peace. White people need some peace. And we are going to have to fight. We’re going to have to struggle. We’re going to have to struggle relentlessly to bring about some peace, because the people that we’re asking for peace, they are a bunch of megalomaniac warmongers, and they don’t even understand what peace means.” – Fred Hampton

Not sure who knows this already but 6 months ago, Denver started having mental health professionals respond to mental health incidents instead of police. Some early data:
0 arrests were made among 748 incidents
41% of people were taken to a shelter or hospital
0 incidents were violent
6x a day, police were freed up to work on more serious criminal activity
“Defund the police” materializes through progressive steps like this. We need to pressure more law enforcement agencies to follow suit.
I’m grateful someone in this world has the artistic sensibilities necessary to think “I will do graffiti of Touhous smoking joints not just once, but with the consistency of a professional committed to his work.”
