Kenosha, WI needs help! 😢

[Heartstrings]

From a friends facebook post that wasn’t shareable: “Okay Kenoshans, round three is scheduled for noon TODAY! While looking for ways to assist this morning we spoke to credible sources that let us know the message being sent out is "to burn Kenosha down" starting at 12. Be safe!!”

This is really bad, folks! REALLY, bad! And I can’t do a thing to help! I’ve never felt this hopeless before in my entire lifetime. I have some long time friends living through this, and they’re all scared shitless!

1. No one is going to burn Kenosha down

[Heartstrings]

2. They're doing a pretty good job of burning it down...

My fear is trump is going to send his goons in....that’ll surely deescalate the situation....Not!

3. Stay home.

What I suggest you do is take the message you posted and send it to your governor and mayor and city councilors with the message that you are scared that Trump will get involved, and ask that they use the National Guard if things get bad, and let Trump know that he is not welcome in your city.

4. Very sensible advice

7. The friend who posted that did contact Gov. Evers office.

I no longer live in Kenosha but have many friends who do.

5. Credible sources, eh? Huh.

6. Oh, Lordy, here comes the fat white gun-kooks...

... to wobble around that area.

8. Kenosha Has A Chance To Help Itself.

Arrest and charge the shooter and his accessories then issue a, sincere, public apology. Get the black community involved now rather than waiting until it's all on fire. At this point, I'm not even sure the names of the offices have been released as I type this.

9. Has the mayor or police department

even suggested that the officers involved might face consequences for their actions?

That might cool people down a bit, if they thought there could be some form of justice.

It is unlikely that there will be, but we can hope.

11. Nope.

12. I can see why the community is angry

the way I look at it, the cops, police chief, and mayor figure that since he isn't dead, they don't have to do anything.

No body cams means that they can spin any narrative they want to and discount eyewitnesses.

We've all seen this before. If the people in charge act, things will calm down.

Glad that Gov. Evers spoke out, but he has little power over this particular thing.

10. The same kinds of messages were posted all over the country to scare people.

It's white supremacist propaganda. They are the same people that will start rioting.

Most likely.
