  • We had sustained national protests for months just a few years ago. The problem isn’t that we’re placid, but that the barriers we face to organizing mass movements are close to insurmountable and there’s no available and responsive avenue to successfully lobby for change in our so-called democracy.

    It’s the state and all of its carceral powers against a politically uneducated population that’s one arrest away from getting fired and then one missed paycheck away from homelessness, or one injury at the hands of a too-excited cop away from medical bankruptcy.









  • The legislation also bans the sale, transfer or import of gun magazines with more than 10 rounds unless they are owned by law enforcement or a military member or were owned before the measure’s passage.

    Exempting the police from gun control laws and giving them control over the permit process isn’t gun control. It’s just funneling arms away from the vulnerable communities that need means of self defense (and are the ones usually on the receiving end of disproportionate state violence) and giving them to the communities that oppress them.
