The same cop city where, on the planned site, the cops shot a protester in the chest....57 times, and then lied about him being armed to justify the killing?

That is correct, and only one aspect of what makes this so appalling...

Fuck this. Does anyone know if there are going to be solidarity protests in other parts of the country?

I'd hope, but the media does a great job of providing stories daily for folks to despise, so hopefully it doesn't get lost in the shuffle...
