Federal agencies should be holding them accountable.

But "moderates" only like protests when they're not in power.

Look at how they're treating the people protesting US support of Israel's ongoing genocide.

If you protest while republicans are in power moderates do the "fellow kids meme" and talk about how important protest is.

If you protest while Democrats are in power, the moderates start calling protests a threat to our nation and making shit up like republicans.

I don't know why anyone thinks moderates are on our side, the main problem they have with republicans is the letter by their names. Not their policy or actions.

there should be a goddamn constitutional amendment requiring every police agency to have a civilian oversight board to hire and fire police and the board must be composed of people from the areas they police and elected by the district they police exclusively.
