My partner asked for a last minute sign today. 3D printing to the rescue!
Made a sign for today… 3D printed letters, foam core, spray paint… then added a 3D printed handle.

Trump’s Police State (ROBERT REICH SUBSTACK, 9 Jun 2025)
#resist
The only jury I've ever been on faced a question about resisting arrest. The defendant was tackled by an officer and initially fought back (or so the officer claimed). The officer was wearing a police uniform, but we acquitted on the charge, because the defendant was tackled from behind and there was reasonable doubt as to whether the officer actually identified themselves verbally in a way that made it clear to the defendant they weren't being tackled by some random dude.
This ain't legal advice, but in situations where a kidnapper refuses to identify themselves, show a warrant, or even a badge number, I suspect a sufficiently white bystander might not be convicted on interference charges if they did something like a citizen's arrest of a suspicious out-of-town paramilitary type who was in the process of an extrajudicial kidnapping. If there are multiple kidnappers, to be effective you might need multiple people willing to face jail time for such interventions to be successful...

Just thinking about this in light of the recent kidnapping in the next town over where some fools called the city police thinking they might actually protect the community from an unlawful assault. Can't blame the fools too much because of how deep positive portrayals of cops are embedded in our media diet though...
I missed today's protest because I had client work but clients paying me for work helps fuel the efforts in put into the community.
I got a bunch of supplies recently to make more unhoused person care packages and I purchased art from marginalized people that will be made available in the Free Little Art Gallery.
We all gotta do what we can, when we can, in the ways we can.
