A clarinet player was arrested after playing her instrument to the tune of the “Ghostbusters” theme song outside of a Portland ICE facility, which has recently become a site of daily clashes between federal agents and demonstrators.
This is lawlessness. No procedure, no rules, no guidelines, no restraint, no empathy, no accountability. Their violence will only escalate. America, you need to start standing up to this administration. No more sitting on the sidelines of politics. The footsteps are heading your way now.
Since the 80’s USA has been a society mostly driven by sociopathy, with Republican policies being decidedly and uncompromising sociopathic. So it’s not surprising that there are a lot of sociopaths in USA, who are willing to disregard all decency and all norms to trample on those they consider to be below them or against them.
I just read an article stating that Americans are lining up for a job with ICE, and they consider it an “adventure”!!!
Absolutely zero empathy.That’s what largely unregulated capitalism and a culture that exalts greed about all else will do to a people. We have literally brainwashed our entire populace into being sociopaths because it made a profit. And we are surprised that there were consequences.
Too late.
They won’t.
And if you suggest they should, they’ll get defensive and belligerent. They’re clowns.
Arrested for, and while doing, nothing illegal.
Just remember, if one person has no rights, we all have no rights.
First they came for the woodwinds, and I said nothing because I play in strings.
Edit: It’s a silly joke, but I do think instruments in an orchestra is a good metaphor for the importance of diversity to society.
Everyone here is joking about this, but it’s not funny at all.
The USA got some very special freedom, but at least their guns will protect them from overreaching state actors.
Arresting musicians is very Taliban
She was probably playing it menacingly /s
If you don’t side with the Constitution, no one knows where the hell you are.
Clarinets have reeds and they can be sharp enough to cut someone up in a heated frenzy. Be careful out there ICE! /s
I could understand if it was a bagpipe player but the licorice stick?
