Maybe this is why they moved to Washington from Florida?

Lacey, Washington is getting a new police station. It's bigger than the current police station and included new areas for training. They are also going to destroy 12 acres of forest to build it.
Leftists here are calling it a second Cop City because of that which is Deeply misleading.
They are NOT building mock cities like the facility in Atlanta is, but "Lacey is building a second cop city!!" Is still starting to gain traction on tiktok. Google now shows me that's it's a topic on Reddit and people have quickly written news articles about it as well. This is a bad thing.
Who said they were building a cop city and why nobody is fact checking this is beyond me but here is a screenshot of the new plans including a size comparison with the old station. But if you wanna check their site yourself then here is the link.
By all means protest the police station, it's ACAB everyday around here but ffs can we do it without stealing language and spotlight from another BIPOC movement and one that's gotten people killed??? Especially when its the ONLY movement that's actually protesting an actual Cop City?
Do not water down that movement by including non-Cop Cities in the call to action to stop Cop City.
Honestly, my concern is it's a psyop to take attention from the actual Cop City. This area of the PNW is a hotbed for Nazis and white supremacists in general. I do not like that a bunch of pissed off "leftists" are co-opting language and fucking with Google searches for the only actual Cop City. Especially when the plans for the Lacey police station are EASILY found on their site and nobody seems to care enough to fact check.
If y'all see this, please correct it
Also if you're in the area and wanna harass some government employees about it: They have public city council meetings coming up on Feb 13, 14, 20, and 21.

Please. West coast people. I need you to stop broadly stating that American bullfrogs are invasive online. They are not invasive to North America in general. They are invasive only specifically to parts of western North America. Don't blindly encourage people to kill them without clarifying it they are in the regions in which they are non-native 😭
They're good boys in their native range, which includes the majority of the continental US and southeastern Canada.

In the last two games of their season, the Caps:
-Brutally and painstakingly forced their way into the final wild card spot, eliminating the Red Wings, Pens, AND Flyers from the playoffs
-Kicked the Bruins in the nuts and shut them out, allowing the Panthers to swoop in and take the Atlantic Division crown, thereby forcing both the Battle of Florida Round 3 and Leafs-Bruins Round 4
