I did miss that it was ACLU specific, but I will repeat that emphasizing the water is testing fine/is safe is a dangerous road to go down.

Fuck you.

Not the city. The city was being run by the governor appointed emergency manager, and the decision to switch was theirs (and signed off on by the state treasurer).

Awesome. Thats the way to do it.

Can’t star this enough. And fwiw this nonsense does sometimes happen in the Catholic Church too  - the great priest atmy born and raised church had to go fall in love and got excommunicated (that’s another discussion) and the guy who replaced him bought a SUV and renovated the heck out of the house he lived in, to 10s…

Lord. Yes, I understand how the water works. Now you do realize that the damage done by neglecting the corrosion controls when under Flint water varies from house to house, that some are NOT testing under, that there is no way every house has been tested, that it’s more than just lead to worry about, and that people…

I can’t tell you how much your heart breaks when you talk to a Mom who had been giving her 3 kids water for months upon months without knowing, because she was told it was fine.

Fuck you.

Again they’ve been supporting citizens in suing the state and folks arrested for speaking up at town halls.

FUCK YOU.

FUCK YOU.

FUCK YOU.

FUCK YOU

You can make lots of things out of Flint Water Bottles. There’s a fucking apparent never ending supply.

Yeah, you know what support the state was providing when they finally stepped up?

ACLU has been supporting lawsuits by citizens. They’ve also provided counsel for folks like my friend arrested for speaking up at a town hall. Granted she wishes they’d be more active, but as far as legal counsel goes they are stepping up.

Not fucking surprised. Michigan reading scores as a whole have PLUMMETED (middle of the pack to bottom 10% in 10 years); of course Flint is gonna be worse. Fuck Snyder, fuck the Republicans, fuck gerrymandering, support Voters Not Politicians and at least get Lansing looking like our fucking population to SOME degree,…

Wow, these are fantastic. I just focus on work/personal relationships on Instagram so miss these kinds of finds... Thanks for sharing!

Well, the entire effing state of Michigan is within that BS suspended rights border zone so...
