APPLY HEAT, MELT ICE — This Weekend, We Protest Everywhere!
ICE shot a mom of 3 in the face just after she dropped her 6-year old off at school. Renee Nicole Good was a prize-winning poet from a red state. She was the widow of a veteran. She was also raising her kids to be kind and compassionate. She did missionary work and sang in the church choir.
Trump and his thugs went on TV and called her a “domestic terrorist.” I know of only one primary Domestic Terrorist, and he and his fellow terrorists are about to be removed from Congress later this year. Can we last til then?
There are over a thousand protests, vigils, and other actions to demand an end to ICE on Saturday & Sunday, all over the country. Find the one closest to you here.
They shot a mom of 3 in the face.
Let me say that again, because if that sentence doesn’t stop you cold, something is wrong: They shot a mom of 3 in the face — just after she dropped her 6-year old off at school.
Don’t let this weekend pass by without shouting about it.
Our silence will be deafening.
And history shows — silence is what lets them get away with it.
We cannot wait until November to stop this violence. No one is coming to save us but ourselves.
See you in the streets!
** In order to have a troll-free, hate-free comments section — and because if there’s one thing I know about my crazy haters, they would rather spend an eternity in hell with Elon Musk than send me $5 if forced to become a paid subscriber — my Comments section here on my Substack is limited to paid subscribers. But, not to worry — anyone can send me their comments, opinions and thoughts by writing to me at mike@michaelmoore.com. I read every one of them, though obviously I can’t respond to all. The solution here is not optimal but it has worked and my Comments section has become a great meeting place for people wanting to discuss the ideas and issues I raise here. There is debate and disagreement, but it is refreshing to have it done with respect and civility, unfettered by the stench of bigotry and Q-anon insanity.
The murder of Rene Good is every bit as bad as the murder of George Floyd. Both due to the arrogance, stupidity and inhumanity of law enforcement.
The officer responsible must be held accountable. Any others who were complicit must also be brought to justice.
I'm actually in Japan at the moment with the choir, but I do have a real whistle around my neck with the words ice blows on one side and a phone number of help on the other.
