communities will develop their own street networks of journalism as they are needed. as it has always been, always shall it be. i lived in DC for 4 incredibly happy years and one incredibly mirerable one. the people of DC are diverse, and strong, with a sense of community that has held them together through many things. these ice kidnappings are an attack on that very social fabric. the white house is freaking because they know their attempt to break DC's spirit has failed. what opressors don't understand, what they'll never understand, is that we the people see ourselves as we the people. we don't just virtue signal that the way the plantation owners who founded this country did.
we hold these truths to be self evident: all humans are created equally with certain unalienable dignities. when in the course of human events these dignities are ignored, it no longer benefits the people to submit to the power of the status quo. if there is to be no benefit complying with the status quo, then we shan't.
I want to read a book in your diction. I greatly enjoyed reading this.
Also you're 100% correct.
if i do it will be titled
Assigned
Criminal

Birth:
Tales of persistence from the mountains of Appalachia
