In the first case targeting #antifa, we are seeing chillingly- long sentences.
50 fucking years in prison for shooting off fireworks (which they are classifying as explosives), wearing black, and being associated with someone who shot an ICE agent.
This is while we have #ICE murdering folk in broad daylight without a hint of consequence.

Welcome to the next-level of fascist repression.
