While cops mace children, the black bloc protesters carry them to safety and immediately search for their medics.
When cops try to mace disabled people, members of the black bloc will escort them to safety as fast as possible, continuing to shield them with their bodies even when the police try to pull them away.
When cops try to mass arrest protesters by blocking off their exits both from the front and the back, the black bloc organizes and charges forward to break through and allow people to escape.
While the black bloc damages property, the cops damage people.
Black blocs love and want to protect people more than cops ever will. The image of black blocs being evil and disorganized chaos is a lie fed to us to stop us from showing solidarity with each other.
We need to protect each other and love defiantly against the state. We need to help each other, because the law won’t.
To everyone wanting proof that these things are true, there’s video evidence of these things from the J20 protests in DC. Please keep in mind that these do show police brutality, and may be very distressing.
For the video showing the other black bloc members escorting the disabled bloc member who was protecting an elderly person who was maced by the police at disgustingly close range, as well as seeking medical for a child who was maced by the police, the video is [HERE]
For the bloc breaking the police line, the video is [HERE]
Black blocs are your friend.
