There were lots of police and tear gas in Gezi protests, but nothing militarized like this. #Fergusonhttp://t.co/e6yLSbMmqy

It's terrifying to see this militarized suppression of dissent in a town of 20,000 and know that accountability only goes up to a mayor.

I mean, what should I say? Point out the obvious? We can use weapons of war to subdue entire towns...but we can't jail a single banker?

Newsflash. Civilized societies do not allow regular paramilitary police armed with weapons of war to declare martial law in entire towns.

I spent 4 hours in #Ferguson jail. @AntonioFrench may spend 24. We were charged w/ same offense. Why are they holding him? Bc they can.
