- Note: Many people are suggesting NOT to try and get it raised to the first degree because it may be very difficult to prove that the murder was pre-meditated, giving Chauvin a higher chance of being declared not guilty. Because of this, I am removing any “raise the degree” petitions

- Update (6/4): “It’s amazing that we got 490,000+ signs on this petition. Unfortunately, I got an email saying that I would be exposing myself to legal liability because the police department made a Twitter post that claimed it wasn’t Jared. Regardless, they still admitted that an officer did mace the child. They are not releasing any information about who they suspect it to be. I do not know if it is a cover-up or not due to the lack of facts. Until they post evidence, I will keep this up. DO NOT SEND HIM DEATH THREATS. Don’t sink to that level.”

*Do not donate to change.org
*The White House has a history of giving vague, unhelpful responses or ignoring these petitions but I’d still suggest signing and making your voices as loud as possible. It can’t hurt to try.
- @icatboy on Twitter: “you guys don’t sign those white house petitions sadly they don’t do shit, those were only effective under obama’s administration and mean nothing in 7rump’s term. they aren’t obligated to give us a statement after 100k signature sadly”
- I still have them linked below for those who want to sign
- “Donate here towards helping us hire a PR Firm to get this petition the media exposure it needs. The court of public opinion is a powerful resource that is needed to help this petition reach its ultimate potential and also get it on the desk of the people who can actually implement the change that we're asking for.”

- Do not sign: Don’t sign anything ICE gives you without talking to an attorney
- Report and Record: Take pictures and video unless you’re on federal government property. Take notes of badge numbers, number of agents, time, type of car, and exactly what happened (UWD hotline 1-844-363-1423)
- Fight back: Get a trustworthy attorney to explore all options to fight your case. If detained, you may be able to get bail - don’t give up hope! Join your local team to defend yourself from enforcement!
- Wait at least 5 days to avoid a false negative
Educate yourselves
- JACOB PEDERSON of the St. Paul PD is widely believed to have been the undercover cop vandalizing stores and starting fires during protests.
