I have been taught to yell “stop resisting” and “drop your weapon” after firing a gun, because bystanders will remember you said it and their memory will automatically reverse the order of the events to make it make sense. Their testimony will support yours, because of this. I have been told to “loosen up and have fun, it’s fun! Why are you so serious?” When doing a shoot/don’t shoot scenario training.

Let’s have another quick thread about something I think needs to be addressed. Ok, it’ll probably be not that quick. So let’s talk about Trackers. 🧵 So for those who don’t know trackers are paid and legal political operatives that stalk candidates and politicians to record them.

I do a few things more to say beyond my official statement, but for now I just want to say I’m sorry. I’m sorry for all the people who will hurt by the policies that many of those who win last night have promised to enact. I’m sorry I didn’t fight harder. 🧵 I’m sorry for every door I didn’t knock, every call I didn’t make. I’m sorry for every time my body reminded me I live with chronic illness and I had to take a knee. I’m sorry for every turf I didn’t cut. I’m sorry I didn’t fight harder.
