Yea, a lot of keyboard warriors talk a big game. Simply filming an officer is still fucking heroing, you are documenting brutality because the cops definitely won't. I was toe to toe with the CPD in 2020, and it was fucking terrifying. I don't blame anyone who doesn't want to kill themselves for not jumping into the fray. Most of us stock shelves for christ sake, and I teach music to 10 year olds- we don't know how to fight. Even if we did, knowing how to fight and ACTUALLY fighting are VERY different.

I was in Eastern Oregon for my cousin's bachelor party, and we went to play volleyball at the park. In the court next to us, there was a beefcake skinhead tatted up with swastikas and all of his friends. At this point "punch a Nazi" kinda goes out the door when my 6'2" and 150 lb bean pole ass goes up against the MOST RIPPED NAZI I HAVE EVER SEEN. I just asked the guys to maybe go slackline in the forest instead.

Yep, that why we need to organize. Even if some people may act bravely, it will not enough.

We need to create the conditions of those action: spreading info on demo, teach ourselves our to react collectively, our to defend our fellow in front of justice, making solidarity funds, ...

Can you show me which code section in the law says officers can commit crimes without intervention?
