Boosting the Signal: A Voice for Neli

[logansrogue]

Help this poor young man who has been wrongly arrested.

He is autistic, and has been arrested for assaulting a police officer, even though the police officer basically attacked him out of the blue and used excessive force. The story breaks my heart. This shit is not okay.

There's a petition his mother is trying to get 1000 signatures on. What do you say, LJ? Reckon we can boost it beyond that number? I reckon so.

Boost the signal. Sign the petition.

Done. That is absolutely sickening. Police often attack people with autism or mental illnesses...and then say, "oh look, they're CRAZY!" When hello, if you attack someone, or try to drag them out of their house against their will, they're gonna act nuts.

UGH this pisses me off. Not only because of this particular case, but because it is SO prevalent!
