The assertions by Kimbrady Carriker were made to police in the hours after Carriker was arrested while wearing body armor and a ski mask and carrying an assault rifle and ghost gun on the 1600 block of South Frazier Street, said the sources, who requested anonymity to discuss the ongoing investigation. Carriker first told responding officers who made the arrest that they had done a good job, the sources said. Carriker then told them the gunfire — which spanned several blocks and struck people, including children, who had no apparent connection to one another — was an attempt to help police because “all these guys are out there killing people,” the sources said.

Waterloo Police on the hate-motivated attack carried out by Geovanny Villalba-Aleman: "We believe this was a specific and targeted purpose for him to be there..that was his purpose, to make a statement, to purposely target that subject matter of gender identity and gender expression."
5:54 PM CDT, June 28, 2023 Toronto (AP) - A professor and two students were stabbed Wednesday during a class on “gender issues” at a university in the Canadian city of Waterloo and a suspect has been taken into custody, police said. The wounds were non-life threatening, police said, adding that the motive for the attack was not immediately clear. The suspect was being questioned by investigators. “There is no further threat to public safety either on campus or outside in the broader community at this time,” Waterloo regional police service said
nonplussed cop hesitated just long enough to give the queen time to run off into the crowd. The cops themselves hardly escaped scot-free. Somebody managed to drop a concrete block on one parked police car; nobody was injured, but the cops inside were shaken up. At another point, a gold-braided police officer being driven around to survey the action got a sack of wet garbage thrown at him through the open window of his car; a direct hit was scored, and soggy coffee grounds dripped down the officers face as he tried to maintain a stoic expression. Still later, as some hundred people were being chased down Waverly Place by two cops, someone in the crowd suddenly realized the unequal odds and started yelling, "There are only two of 'em! Catch 'em! Rip their clothes off! Fuck 'em!" As the crowd took up the cry, the two officers fled. Before the police finally succeeded in clearing the streets—for that evening only, it would rum out—a considerable amount of blood had been shed. Among th
Stonewall (1993) by Martin Duberman One of the most important moments of resistance from the 1960s was the Stonewall Rebellion. On the night of June 27-28, 1969, a multiracial group of gays who had gathered at the Stonewall Inn on Christopher Street in New York City's Greenwich Village resisted when police sought to shut down the bar (allegedly for serving alcohol without a license) and to arrest patrons. They fought back, as the historian Martin Duberman recounts here, and, in doing so, helped spur a new, more militant phase of the struggle for gay liberation. —Introduction from Zinn and Arnove's Voices of a People's History of the United States As the police, amid a growing crowd and mounting anger, continued to load prisoners into the van, Martin Boyce, an eighteen-year-old scare drag queen, saw a leg in nylons and sporting a high heel shoot out of the back of the paddy wagon into the chest of a cop, throwing him backward.

What can Pride organizers do to protect community members? If Pride event organizers receive threats or know that a vigilante militia group plans to patrol or otherwise synchronize protest movements, they should consider the following options: Understand local gun restrictions and anti-paramilitary laws: Become familiar with the laws related to firearms possession and paramilitary activity in the jurisdiction in order to understand the types of armed conduct that may be unlawful. Communicate with law enforcement: Share information about threats and vigilante militia plans with local police departments, alongside ICAP's video guidance and written materials to provide them an opportunity to prepare for potential disruption, prevent illegal coordinated activities, and establish safety plans. Be specific about potential unlawful activity. Communicate with threat researchers: Get in touch with ICAP and similar organizations, such as your local ACLU chapter, to become better aware extremist
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, Senator Rick Scott issued a formal travel advisory for all socialists visiting the state of Florida. The travel advisory comes in direct response to the Biden Administration attempts to erase capitalism and the system that has brought prosperity to Florida and the entire United States. "Florida is openly hostile toward Socialists, Communists, and those that enable them. Before traveling to Florida, please understand that the state of Florida devalues and marginalizes the contributions of, and the challenges faced by Socialists and others who work in the Biden Administration." "Let me be clear - any attempts to spread the oppression and poverty that Socialism always brings will be rebuffed by the people of Florida. Travelers be aware that attempts to spread Socialism in north Florida will fail and be met with laughter and mockery," said former Governor and now Senator Scott. "However, in much of Central and South Florida, the situation is far more dangerous for

“If you can make it hostile to that group of people, that small sliver of society, and have them move elsewhere, that does a huge amount to shut this down,” Peters said. “It’s both sides of it: You need to attract the good people here, and you also need to make it clear to the bad people, this isn’t gonna go well for you.”

Today, Human Rights Watch respectfully asks this Committee to oppose HB 20 and HB 7. Together, the bills amount to a dangerous and extreme effort to expand Texas’ border policing program including the creation of a state-sponsored vigilante border protection unit and the codification and expansion of a border policing, court, and jailing system that has to date resulted in injuries, deaths,[1] racial discrimination,[2] abusive detention conditions,[3] and a chilling effect on freedoms of association and expression.[4] HB 20[5] would create a “Border Protection Unit” whose head would answer to Governor Greg Abbott. The bill would allow the administration to deputize any “law-abiding” citizen to serve in the unit, and thereby participate in enforcement actions against people thought to be migrants and asylum-seekers crossing the border between the United States and Mexico and throughout the state. People serving in the unit would be granted criminal and civil immunity against claims of
Authorities have not released a motive, but a patch on his chest said “RWDS,” an acronym that stands for Right Wing Death Squad, according to people familiar with the investigation. The phrase is popular among right-wing extremists, neo-Nazis and white supremacists, they said, and while there is still a great deal of evidence to analyze, and authorities have not reached any conclusions yet, investigators are approaching the shooting as a possible hate crime.

If something does not seem right, simply drive away and do your shopping at a safer place. Gas station parking lots are particularly hazardous when it comes to criminal activity. Before stopping the vehicle, drive around the lot and see who is there. Are there suspicious-looking characters leaning against the wall, hanging out in a vehicle at the periphery of the lot, or hovering in the darkness past the lights? If so, get gas somewhere else. When parked and pumping gas, don’t stare at your phone, but have your head on a swivel and monitor who is coming and going. Seeing it early allows you to take any action necessary.
