Who needs to have their minds changed about this? DHS, local PD, reserve, national guard, etc. And maybe their families/friends if those folks aren’t afraid of them.

So, I think the original comment is right: the most impact would be had if the panel looks like the folks we see using horses to trample protesters (or in military leadership etc). Or like tank-on-Tesla guy.

That said, the conversation’s gotta start somewhere, and I appreciate these folks doing it and putting their names/faces out there in this climate.
