I'm out of the loop. What happened?
Unnecessary I.C.E. raids in California led to a protest that was unnecessarily escalated by police and then apparently the president deployed national guard troops there against the governors wishes. Which is abnormal for US procedures as governors tend to handle that. I have yet to see if the guard troops had any involvement before it got worse though.
Saw a video of a journalist who got shot by police rubber bullets.
Damn. Thanks.
