mikekarnell Weird because a few hours ago the frontline of our peaceful protest took a knee, put our hands up in the air and, right on cue, the NYPD charged at us with their batons before arresting us for “disturbing the peace.” If you think there is going to be some Kumbaya bullshit healing than you’re giving the NYPD too much credit and standing in the way of real progress. #defundthepolice
mikekarnell ANTIFA was an organization founded by Jewish WW2 vets in the 1950s - originally called The 43 Group. They came home after liberating Jews from death camps to find a fascist uprising going on right in London. Edward Mosley and his Blackshirts terrorized Jewish communities by physically assaulting men, women and children with impunity and painting swastikas on Jewish owned buildings. Sound familiar? When the Jewish community asked for help from local govt and the police they were turned away. Sound familiar? So, fed up with inaction, they formed a secret and underground organization to do what elected officials refused to do - protect the vulnerable. Sound familiar? Yes, their tactics were violent but it was only ever directed at The Blackshirts. Besides, when your enemy has no compassion, what other option do you have? After FIVE YEARS of fighting Mosley and his fascist Black Shirts, The 43 Group was able to finally beat their enemies down and get their fascist little group disbanded. I truly just want people to understand ANTIFA’s origins and what I believe they stand for - JUSTICE. Those white people in masks escalating tensions across the country are not ANTIFA, they’re just dumb, racist white people in masks. I’m not surprised Trump wants to designate them a terrorist org but I implore everyone to learn about The 43 Group, ANTIFA and to decide for themselves. For me they are HEROES
mikekarnell Moving this to my main feed so as many people can see it as possible. These were peaceful protests until the NYPD cut us off and attacked us. They blindly pepper sprayed us, hit us in our backs with nightsticks as we FOLLOWED ORDERS and, in general, escalated the situation by being fucking psychotic and violent. Ill never forget the look on the cop’s face - like a fucking rabid dog - as he went to go swing down on a girl he had just pushed into the trash. But I’ll always remember the protestors that protected her and countless others.
To my white friends: GET INVOLVED #justiceforgeorgefloyd
mikekarnell One of my favorite parts of that Amtrak trip was riding with Jeff in his tiny ass helicopter 10k feet up in the air. This first photo is where the Continental Divide crosses into the United States.
mikekarnell I’ve run out of things to do so now I’m going through old rolls of film from my cross country Amtrak trip. Here are some shots I had forgotten about
mikekarnell Happy birthday @sarahdschneider !!!! I turn into a high maintenance rescue dog whenever you're not around so thank you for agreeing to marry me!
mikekarnell We love Jake and Jill so much that me and the boys decided it was only right to force all of their loved ones to kneel Lord of The Rings style at their wedding and it was glorious. Such an amazing wedding thrown by two of the best people I know!
(If you are able to identify anyone not kneeling please PM me and they will be dealt with)
