As Bolsonaro tries to destroy environmental protection organizations, Brazilian journalists continue to protect them.

Minneapolis and Minnesota thugs slashed tires of specific people's parked cards during a protest, then told some of the victims, laughing. Some were caught on video carrying out this vandalism.

The thugs later claimed they had done this to prevent dangerous driving and other unspecified sorts of "harm". One must suspect that in some cases the harm that they feared was journalism. If such concerns justified slashing tires, slashing cop cars' tires would always be justified.

In some cases, the thugs did this indiscriminately to every car in a lot. If you define the people as the enemy, you can justify vandalizing any car.
