The OCP building was in Dallas Texas though, the City Hall. Not a skyscraper: just the bottom was real.

My daughter has friends who live practically at the edge of it, and nobody wants to be anywhere near a mock battle zone.

I talked to my daughter last night, it turns out that she knew the boy who was shot, "Tort" (short for "the little turtle"). She didn't know him well, had only met him a couple of times, but one of her friends knew him somewhat better. She said that he was mid-20s, gay, and a total pacifist who regularly told people "No violence! We can't be like them!"

A group of them were camped out in "the Forest" (as they called that area), and he was shot in his sleeping bag inside his tent, from the outside. The police said that they had heard a shot, but there were no guns found in the area.

It's a difficult road for pacificists, but Ghandiji did it, boycott industries (homespun).

equivalently, if young people today stopped eating/using animal products, that would erode a huge chain of capital going towards today's worst climate/ political influencers.
