(31,408 posts)because it seems to be everywhere, including on the huge doors to the loading dock of our apartment building after the not so peaceful protests a week ago here in Raleigh on Saturday/Sunday nights.
Didn't know that 12 was slang for police.
Thanks for posting the photos.

(86,839 posts)Thanks for being there. I was there the day the buses surrounded the WH entrance... got my first taste of tear gas that summer.
Some things haven't changed a bit, like police brutality.
Stay safe!
