We can protest many more days in the future..... Protesters are a target now and there is an active shooter on the loose, dressed like a police officer....it is too high a risk for the innocent.

Yes.... protect the public...the peaceful protesters...

Why in the fuck would he kill Democrats - or anybody of course - but why would a supporter of NoKings kill Democrats above all?

I wonder if he was REMOVING the flyers, which may be why they were in his car.

So they likely don't have the personnel to cover rallies today. Understandable. And they don't know about those "persons of interest" they mentioned. How many, how widely spread?

They were moving it to the State Capitol grounds was the last thing I heard.
