It's truly wild how SPD has misjudged this movement at every single turn.

They thought the teargas would drive us away from their precinct. We set up shop on their doorstep.

They thought more teargas would cut our numbers. Twice as many showed up the next day.
They thought lifting the curfew would be enough to get us to go home. We built a bandstand.

They thought protesters were moving the barricade to attack police. Protesters were just getting close enough to engage in dialog.
They thought erecting a permanent barricade yesterday would keep us back. We dismantled it and used it to stop a mass murder.

They thought we would burn down the precinct they abandoned. Protesters are giving speeches on the front steps.
They thought they could use misinformation over the police scanner tonight to cause a panic, but it only proved how equipped and prepared we are to create a safe space for each other.

It is genuinely remarkable how wrong they have been. About everything.
