The whole thing seems like a psyop to me.
It's too . . . perfect diabolical.
and the mayor and shills here trying to fan it to make it hotter.
I think we were all played for 8 years during the Barry Years, Furgeson, etc.
and then they tried 'charlotte'
what other 'named place' where truculent people mouth off at roid rage cops?
it take two to tangle.
