All I can say about this is that it's a courageous act.
I genuinely don't know whether it was well considered.
I hope she's able to inspire others to fight unjust treatment of others. This feels like an extreme act of courage from someone with a lot to lose, and she is not just a brave woman, but this should be seen as an admirable action by anyone, no matter who they are or what they believe, because it's a level of sacrifice that most of us would never be able to take on.
As many people as we have on near every post here these days talking about why no one is taking any action, they're still safe behind their screen while this lady marched, announced, right through the front gate of the enemy's house. People like Marcy are who have gotten us to this point of the rights we have, not the critics, no matter how vocal they get.
