We are witnessing the first stages of a Trump police state » The Guardian

"In this country, the cop riot is an institution. It’s part of how the government functions, just as much as legislative hearings and lawsuits. It’s how the ruling elite enforce their will when conditions become intolerable and people cease to tolerate them. The cops are always ready to riot—to manifest the violent power of the state—when enough people get in the way of the elite project."

The Mass Dump's Andrew Quemere

In light of ICE riots in LA, Andrew Quemere argues that police violence isn't an aberration but a core function of American governance, used to uphold elite power and suppress popular resistance when the status quo is threatened.
