Looks like there's a pattern of the police going after the press in multiple cities
I don't see how this is supposed to help their cause
Looks like there's something bigger going on, this ain't the run-of-the-mill unrest

(29,219 posts)for three days the police sort of let "protesters" do what they want... which is to say that most protesters went home after night fall and looters came out to smash and grab AND some right wing infiltrators tagged along to escalate the violence. Now, all at once in cities across the nation we have the cops becoming highly militarized, flashing "white power symbols" and possibly aided by armed white supremacists, attacking the peaceful protesters before nightfall and attacking journalists at will. Police INSTIGATING the violence.
Coordinated across the country.

(6,847 posts)Could be that white politicians are all just cowards. Yeah, they know right from wrong. But do they have enough conviction in the power of justice to lead? It's a spine thing. Brain on one end, ass on the other.
