Of course, true violent crime rates against indigenous communities are likely much higher, because the overwhelming majority of it goes completely unreported. When your assailants have been given a get out of jail free card, why would you even bother?

Garbage country :(

I guess I'm kinda hesitant to raise awareness though?

On one hand, it's obviously absolutely fucked up and needs to be rectified.

... But we can't raise awareness for just the people who want to help, and I'm very scared about bad people learning about a vulnerable population that can't do anything to hold them accountable.

And what's the fix? Are we gonna try overturning a supreme court decision? With this supreme court? Under this administration?

I think the realistic option is that communities use The Power of Incredible Violence, and I don't think they need more folks aware of their situation to do so.

(Edit: want to clarify - I don't think you should take this post down! Hexbear is probably the closest thing to a spot where you can raise awareness only for folks that want to help. I meant the above about sharing outside here.)
