In other totally-not-a-slide-into-fascism news, peaceful protestors who had a permit to march were teargassed on the way to vote.
They have elections in all those shithole dictatorial countries too. They just make sure the wrong people don't vote.
The participants in Saturday’s “I Am Change” march had intended to conclude at an early-voting site to emphasize turnout in the final days of the presidential campaign. Those plans were thrown into disarray when law-enforcement officers in riot gear and gas masks insisted demonstrators move off the street and clear county property, despite a permit authorizing their presence.

I'm preparing to shelter in place again for about a week. When the cops are booger boys and only the FBI is interested in preserving the Constitutional order, we're in for a world of shit. Record gun and ammo sales. Well if men have to run around killing each other in an orgy of violence, making themselves a minority again, maybe it'll be fun to watch from my balcony.
Though if I'd been thinking I should have made myself an armored smoking enclosure.
