It's so exhausting to stay on top of what's happening; it's very tempting to just check out. But we can't allow the narrative to become one in which the unjustifiable is justified. We have to stay awake and not be lured into complacency. wbur.org/cognoscenti/2020/07…

A Deputy US Marshal told me, "I am worried for my life, every time I walk outside of the building" & that feeling extends widely. They are offended by being told to get out of Portland. They live there, work daily to take violent criminals off the street & it is their city too.
