I was going to post this a couple of weeks ago, but didn't because...cowardice? (Who am I afraid of on here, people whose usernames begin with the letter K? Pffft.) That said, this writer, Kimberly Jones, gives an excellent history and economics lesson in this short video. (Some NSFW language.)

can anyone be responsible for something they didn't do?

history has many examples of the vulnerable paying for the sins of the invulnerable 

just look at any war  (am i making any sense? probably not)
 

Heck - just look at parents picking up their kids' messes.

Police link Calif. cop killing suspect to ‘Boogaloo’ movement
OAKLAND, Calif. (CNN) — A suspect in the shooting deaths of two officers in California had symbols linked to the extremist Boogaloo movement, a loosely knit group of heavily armed, anti-government extremists, US Attorney David Anderson said.

Steven Carrillo, 32, faces a federal murder charge in the May 29 drive-by shooting of David Patrick Underwood, a federal protective services officer, in Oakland, Anderson said. At the same time, a protest against police brutality was taking place nearby.

Carrillo, an active-duty staff sergeant stationed at Travis Air Force Base at the time of the shooting, is also the suspect in the June 6 death of a Santa Cruz sheriff’s deputy, Sheriff Jim Hart said last week.

“The Boogaloo term is used by extremists to reference a violent uprising, or impending civil war in the United States,” Anderson said. (...)

Stuff making the rounds at The Other Place trying to convince people NOT to go to Tulsa next week to protest shithead's redneck rally.  This thing is no doubt a brainchild of that wannabe nazi Stephen Miller and there's little doubt that there will be right-wing provocateurs there to insure that any peaceful demonstration is turned into a brutal shitshow. Nothing would energize shithead's racist base more than images of disorder and looting - because they know that only their hero can stop it.
