If peaceful protest is met with violence, the contract is broken.

When the state beats unarmed people obeying its own laws, it tells us: your rights don’t matter. That’s not democracy—it’s domination.

And those who enforce it? They don’t get to hide behind the badge. If you brutalize the innocent, you’re not a protector—you’re an enemy of the people. And you shouldn’t feel safe while those you hurt suffer in silence.

This isn’t about chaos. It’s about consequences. No justice, no peace wasn’t a slogan—it was a warning.

When justice is illegal, resistance becomes necessary.
