“Cop City” protester Manuel Teran did not have gunpowder residue on their hands, despite officials claiming Teran fired the first shot at a state trooper.

Officers responded with gunfire, killing Teran and leaving the protester with 57 gunshot wounds

Of fucking course the body cam footage of police murdering confirms that the injured officer was due to friendly fire.

They think we're stupid, they intentionally lied, pretended the body cam footage didn't exist, and didn't admit that the cops predictably shot each other.

“When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.” In any normal country this climate activist would have been arrested and dragged away to a waiting van. Not in America.

Pic from the vigil tonight for , the protest slain by cops in this week.

It's crucial we support the movement right now. The cops cannot win this fight simply through the aggressive authoritarian tactics they've used that got this man killed.

Weekend : the update and the original story. Read all of it, if you’re thinking about how to save and use green space in areas with lots of people.

This is on violence and non-violence. And forests and “Cop City.”

There's a vigil tomorrow at 5pm in for AKA

Tortuguita was the anarchist protestor killed by cops in this week. Of course the cops claim there is no body cam footage and that they are not to blame.

If you wanna learn a little more, here's a good article about them: bittersoutherner.com/feature/2

What happened to Manuel & Jessica is not random. This is part of a broader attempt by police and corporations to silence- and in the tragic case of Atlanta- murder- those who stand up for the land and waters.
Rest in eternal Peace & Power .

“The murder of Tortuguita is a gross violation of both humanity and this precious earth which they loved so fiercely. Do not turn away from this violence. Do not allow the callousness of the police state to numb your heart.”

— Anonymous forest defender in a statement sent to @democracynow

from @fayer on their twitter, 1.18.23:

“Police murdered someone in Atlanta today. The city council murdered someone in Atlanta today. The mayor murdered someone in Atlanta today. Brasfield and Gorrie murdered someone in Atlanta today. This can not continue.”

> “The abolitionist mission isn’t done until every prison is empty,” Teran told me. “When there are no more cops, when the land has been given back, that’s when it’s over.” I must’ve shaken my head a little at the grandiosity of this statement because Teran immediately broke into a sheepish smile. “I don’t expect to live to see that day, necessarily. I mean, hope so. But I smoke.”
