Hiiii, you shot me in the face w/ (expired) tear gas as I walked to my car following your orders to disperse. 1/4 mile away from the protest. Public safety & respecting constitutional rights ≠ ordering us to disperse while simultaneously surrounding & violently attacking us. ❤️
Let's all take a moment to bask in how @senatemajldr must feel over losing his majority thanks to a Black pastor.

Wow. Losing hope in the press. you never took up the offer for my account. I even filmed the whole thing. According to attorneys I had the worst injuries from RPD's most violent night (Saturday). How can you aim to tell the story of the injured if you're not talking to us?
Indicted, removed from all his committees (but prob still lists them on his website), and shunned by party leadership, Collins won't even have town hall meetings he promised he would and continues to hide from constituents. His challenger holds town halls for him!!

You just described the September 2020 protests in Rochester, NY to a T as well. They ordered us to disperse while simultaneously surrounding us & hiding in parking garages, then opening fire at everyone with tear gas & pepper balls. Compliance wasn't their goal. Violence was.

Good luck faking the party loyalist. These constituents are smarter than your crappy consultants have suggested. This district has had enough detached politicians named Chris born w/ silver spoon in mouth. They deserve an independent voice w/ working class roots!

We have a severe lack of unbiased, investigative reporting in our region and it's doing nothing to improve the state of things, and everything to empower a loud minority of dangerous individuals who love a good dog whistle and perpetuate misinformation.

Here’s my thing Will, you continually disparage, disrespect, & condescend hardworking journalists, including myself, on a daily basis. If you think you can do better, leave the (failing) PAB and get back in the business.
The facts are that tenants filed over 2k heat and hot water complaints. We don't have to bury our heads in the sand.
It's all cultural. You can call it personal boundaries all you want. Clearly this threatens your ability to give unsolicited compliments. Unsolicited compliments out of nowhere from a stranger are weird power dynamics in cases like this, not kindness. Most women don't like it.
Including 100 children. But did that go as viral as the missing billionaire dingleberries who admittingly "broke rules" to essentially commit suicide?
Why is it acceptable for the rich to break rules for fun, and not for the poor to out of survival.

Nobody intervened to help a boat at sea level. After hours of surveillance before it sank, somebody decided to let 750 people drown.
This is a heartbreakingly disappointing statement. Completely hollow as it pertains to the biggest threat against women of our generation, but also because it's somehow supposed to make sense on the heels of the city changing its protest policies, which reflect prior RPD abuse.

3 yrs later I still struggle to articulate the govt sanctioned attack on peaceful protesters. & there still hasn't been any accountability. A change in protest policies that the city thought would appease lawsuits. No justice, no peace. No community healing w/o accountability.

Just because that's the ease of a retweet, doesn't lessen the meaning or heaviness. Don't gaslight.
You're a journalist & yet you make these wildly biased & unprofessional comments about PAB and beyond? doesn't take issue with this? I wonder if they would if you were making comments that didn't align with anonymous bigots in the suburbs. 🤔

Sorry but no. Don't normalize their violence and unconstitutional assault. Setting off a firework or throwing a water bottle does not warrant the insane series of events that ensued. And last night they started it. They trapped us on a bridge and fired, without notice.
As a Ukrainian woman I am appalled by the excessively disparate responses to Ukrainian asylum seekers & Black & Brown asylum seekers by some leaders in recent weeks.
Can you imagine if they led w/ "workforce requirements" when speaking of Ukrainian immigrants? Yeah, me neither.
To all of the women in politics, locally & beyond, who get labeled "difficult", "argumentative" and "not a team player" for speaking truth to power. Reminder that's just weak leadership desperately clutching to power. Make it their problem, not yours. 🫶🏼💪🏼

Hey @$$hole, stop being a vile creep and leave Shaun King's family alone.
don't waste your time. Single celled organisms don't have the emotional intelligence for objective thought. The blind subordinance of boot licking makes them feel a part of something bigger because they deeply long for human connection that they're incapable of.

Free speech doesn't include threatening sexual violence and hate speech. Peo should have to choose between his seat on council and his 30 follower podcast. At a time when women's human rights are being rolled back, standing against all forms of violence against women is critical.
Seriously, WTF?? They're some of the best paid out there and make serious OT bank. Pretty sure locally starting salary average is $45k, no experience.
Sorry but I've seen little accurate/fair reporting from most sources. The only ones bloodthirsty tonight were RPD.

Seems kind of hypocritical to criticize not using the funds when certain city officials have obstructed the PAB's hiring process & securing office space for the better part of a yr. *Hopefully* that & comments like this aren't intended to undermine public faith in the body.

Replying to
1/2 Shame on you. I agree with . "Imagine if the news covered disparities in our community with the same enthusiasm that they cover fights and violence 🙃"
You do nothing but feed a cycle that dehumanizes people living in systematic poverty.
You can teach them that their anger, overwhelm, hopelessness etc is powerful. You can free them from the guilt and shame that a capitalist society imposes on us for having such feelings. Empower them to find joy as protest, & equip them to dismantle these broken systems.

Time to have a convo w/ the Dem executive vice chair of MCDC/ NYSUT regional rep to ask if he's capable of objectively serving in both. Tearing down progressive, party designated women who also happen to be teachers, while simultaneously propping up family members ain't it.

Opinions on this case completely aside, instead of demonizing victims, recognize that these lawsuits are often their only form of recourse and to bring attention to inequity or abuse. Not saying it should be that way, but it is.
1) I never confirmed I left the campaign. Wonder who the Dem sources are?
2) That's the real story. Why, at a time when corporate shills & Trump lapdogs like Jacobs are destroying our region & country, are Democratic insiders suppressing Democratic votes & electoral successes?
The success is attributable to community orgs on the ground making sure ppl are getting basic needs met in these crises (housing, MH/ addiction.)
Statistically, law enforcement does not prevent crime! My God, we need to break this asinine culture.
