We got caught with our pants down, sure, but people all over the country are preparing & organizing to defend themselves & their communities - that doesn't happen spontaneously or overnight https://twitter.com/OrangePartisan/status/1298107321755799553

They can just go outside & smash windows - you & I have families & a future to think about, & there's nothing cowardly or cynical about taking that seriously

(There's also something to be said for giving law enforcement time to get this under control - as bad as things are, we can make them a whole lot worse, & it's wise to be circumspect about that)
