Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

You're seeing the effectiveness of community organisation efforts to impact larger groups of people. That community was largely established in response to events like Floyd, González and Garcia.
The event with Pretti was filmed from multiple angles by community members. The evidence is unequivocal.
There was zero justification, and it's documented. That is why there's such a major uptick in response. ..and that documentation was in direct response to the prior wrongdoing which was not in response to white people being threatened.
This is a lot of people, from different backgrounds, looking out for each other. What more do you want?
