Thank you for your bravery in witnessing the protests, and your erudition in contextualizing what you saw and what this all means.

Lady I'm conflicted. On one hand I am glad you are observing and reporting on events at the LA protests. On the other hand I am concerned for your safety because consider you a friend. Please be as safe as you can while there ok?

I've always appreciated your in-the-streets form of journalism. It was your dynamic footage of Proud Boys vs. Antifa duking it out in Portland that first put you on my radar. And it's been real hard to know what's going on in LA, even though I have a friend who lives downtown. He says the usually busy streets are deserted where he is. Folks are scared to go out, understandably. I look forward to your next missive from the frontlines.

Rioting in LA

Rioting in Chicago too,

Will LA be the next Lebanon?

Chicago the next Beirut?

San Francisco the next Tiananmen square?

Squashed beneath the government boot?

We live in a Free Fire Zone.

The seeds of the GWOT are here in full bloom.

Strength and Luck to us all.
