In relation to this, thinking about a new community for Political Activism. Calls to action, that kind of thing.

The rules would be super simple:

  1. Purpose is for protest organizing. [Country, City, State]

  2. Absolutely no calls for violent action.

  3. No links to fundraisers. Too rife for fraud and abuse. Stories about fundraisers would be fine, but no GoFundMes, etc.

Think there’s room for PolticalActivism?

      Standing next to a car which was turning the opposite direction at their instruction? Sure.

        Being near a vehicle during a stop isn’t the same as consenting to be run over. The relevant question is whether, at that moment, the officer reasonably perceived the vehicle as an imminent threat — not whether the car had been turning earlier.
