and will now be emboldened on the killing of activists.

Heather who I understand was a Wobbly, was not killed just by an individual, she was killed by a system of terror and supremacy. A system that sees this as a necessary part of their "Free Speech". It's a "Which Side Are You On?" moment.

The Nazis didn't go after the Jews FIRST. They had to get rid of the people who would actually FIGHT them. So they first went after Communists, socialists, anarchists, and trade unions.
