The murderers are in the equivalent of witness protection and they're arresting journalists. Not a good look.
I wonder if the US population understands that the entire world now knows the US is under a fascist regime and is cutting ties as fast as possible. The economic repercussions of this regime will be felt for years to come. Look at the USD/EUR or USD/CAD exchange rates over the last year.
edit: thanks for the downvotes. I know political comments are frowned upon on HN and that is fine. I tried to be factual but my tone was probably off.

This is not HN material.
It’s nice to see laws enforced. Unfortunate that it has become such a controversy when it happens across a growing range of law and order.
This is not surprising. America is basically engaged in a tit-for-tat.

They're using the "two wrongs make a right" theory again? Still haven't figured out that it's just double wrong?
Even worse, it's not really a tit-for-tat, it's a theater of tit-for-tat, a slow-boiling theater which habituates more and more oppression. Why wouldn't both sides use it - it gives them exactly what they want.

> "Don has been a journalist for 30 years, and his constitutionally protected work in Minneapolis was no different than what he has always done," Lowell said in a statement. "The First Amendment exists to protect journalists whose role it is to shine light on the truth and hold those in power accountable."
I mean.. he posted the videos so we can all see that this isn't the case. Journalism doesn't normally produce the chaos that they report on.
