They catch them with Etsy and LinkedIn. Or at least construct that evidence path post facto? Ok, sure. Seems normal.

But is there a Kickstarter legal defense fund?

I'm curious if you really think that it is ok to set fire to a police car? If so, what's the logic? Because my understanding of the first amendment (i.e. the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances) does not protect you if you commit crimes.

If the police are indiscriminately killing members of my race simply because they're afraid of people from my race, I don't think a little property damage to draw attention to that fact is really an equivalent response. So yeah, I'm OK with setting fire to a police car in this circumstance.

But the bigger question is, did they really find the person doing the work they claimed or did they use parallel construction to hide illegal use of surveillance tools?

Based on the metrics I have seen, police are not indiscriminately killing any particular race - deaths from police are not too far off of the crime rates by race. Police killings is a problem, but does not seem to be a problem targeted at any particular race.

You might want to cross-reference those deaths with the rate of wrongful arrest (don't have it in front of me, but high ~48% black), and a clearer picture will form: it is clear that black people are simply policed more and often for exceptionally petty charges. It turns out the rate of criminals in a place is directly related to the amount of police in a location that are motivated to arrest people. The number is highly misleading, purposefully so. And of those alleged "criminals" how many really deserved to die? So, yes, there is definitely a racial element to this.
