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.
