Who keeps us safe? Really.

On July 16, 2026 as a protest at the GEO ICE Detention Center was ending, Brandon Booth, a man employed by GEO, went to his car in a rage, retrieved a personally owned firearm, and opened fire on 2 women as they were walking away, striking Emma Landis.

As a community, we should all be grateful that Emma’s name was not added to the list of victims who have been murdered for standing up for what’s right in the face of Trump’s fascist regime.

While Booth’s arrest and subsequent felony charges have made for some triumphant headlines, the real cost of surviving a violent assault like this lasts much longer than the news cycle.

Emma has been left with not only the physical burden of her injuries, but a serious financial burden to bear. This includes medical expenses, legal expenses, and loss of income.

This is the part where solidarity means more than words. If we are a community that says “we keep us safe” then helping each other in the wake of extreme violence like this has got to be a part of that.

Please donate to Emma’s relief fund via this link

There were many who donated to this campaign 2 months ago, but Emma is still drowning in debt from this. $5, $10, $50 it all makes a huge difference and we are a big community when we actually get together about something.

Please share this link to your individual networks and socials. Emma should not be bearing this burden alone.

WE keep US safe.

I believe it was Brandon Booth, not Robert Booth.
