Tyra Hunter fucking died. She died. And lawyer twitter is going "well actually you have the right to privately sue..." She fucking died.

She died because she was denied care and no one went to jail. Her family got some money, ok. She's still actually dead.

Where was her right to have EMTs provide care at the scene of a car accident. Where was her right to be served by our public servants?

1-in-4 of us are being denied medical care. Over half of us denied coverage. ACLU and Lambda Legal don't have the bandwidth for this.

What a lot of people not in this also seem to forget is that, even with bandwidth, you might not have the time. It's DoS, denial of service.
