In an Irish context this was called βfelon settingβ; a favourite tactic of Dublin Castle to punish via RIC/DMP visits to employers & landlords. But after #EasterRising Irish Times eagerly leaped to print detailed lists leaked to them, not realising how this would soon be a roll of honour #spΓ©irgorm

Christin is a dear friend and I'm so glad she's running for School Board. No one will stand for Minneapolis Public Schools, the students, the teachers, the families, like she will. Christin has literally been on the front lines fighting the ICE occupation for them. I'm proud to support her candidacy

Iβve know Christin for 15 years, since our babies went to preschool together. Sheβs been a tireless, passionate advocate for her community for as long as Iβve known her. Sheβs also brave af and speaks up even when it could cost her. You couldnβt hope for a better school board member!

Yup! I even had a friend in NYC who was lefty (and is today, thankfully) but had a terrifying bloodlust post-9/11. We both lived in Brooklyn and I was shocked by how different our reactions were.

I think a lot of people were, but it was also established when most people were at their least rational about their sense of safety. The Shock Doctrine covers this very well.
