Another killing at the hands of the Police (2 Viewers)

Are you watching Kiro?  Looks like a couple of guys, that would normally be at the peaceful protest, trying to talk sense into the agitators group. In between them and the cop line. 

Then boom, faster than I can type. 

Escalated. Cheesecake factory broken into. 

Violence.

Guess you could loot their bar.  What the hell do you want from Cheesecake Factory?   Nike store is a block away.

I have heard that some of the people doing this are white supremacists. I have also heard that some are extreme leftists (antifa). I have no idea. In truth it doesn’t matter to me. Why it matters to some of you I have no idea. Is it that important to keep a ####### scorecard? 
 

Antifa are scum, the lowest of the low. White supremacists are also scum and just as low. The hell with them all. If any of these people are out destroying buildings, looting, #### em. I wouldn’t mind seeing deadly force used against them; to that extent I agree with @irish eyes. 
 

But the problem is there are also some protestors out there who are legitimately angry and they are also doing violence, because they have let their emotions get the best of them. These folks also need to be stopped, but gently. I mostly feel bad for them.

Good grief this is so insanely tone deaf.

My SIL lives in Minneapolis and today was talking to us and said a lot of the people up there protesting/arrested were white and reports of it being pretty organized and specific.  

It would be sad if groups like white supremacists are taking this opportunity to stoke the fires more and make it seem like BLM is much more violent. 

 
These guys are the worst. They come with back packs with extra changes of clothes, bottled milk and projectiles.  Fat ##### seen leaving the broken in to cheesecake factory with a nice fresh cheesecake she thinks she is entitled to.  wtf

Sigh. The video evidence clearly shows people of all colors looting and rioting. Sad when reporting tries to slant the news to fit a narrative.

And the bar and bottles are, were, lined along the outside windows. 

Please just #### about stuff you know nothing about.

Been watching the police in Minneapolis on CNN as they have advanced down the street to clear the protest area.  They all seem to be coming down one street.  Couldn't the protesters just go over a block and circle back in behind the police line?

This wasn't reporting, more just what was seen and heard in people in the area.  Didn't say it was fact, I said it's what she told us.

She went on an ill advised rant about how Black people think interest on payday loans is looting. In any study, you throw out the extreme samples. She is one. Why we aren’t seeing a more introspective study about what this is really about (inequality,) and how most rioting don’t know what their end game is, is a condemnation of our media structure. Anyone fanning flames should be called out.

Throw out the extreme samples YOU say huh?

It’s not about race. It’s about markets in eyesight of historical highs while tens of millions don’t know if they can eat in a month.

For 90% of the rioters (not the true protesters) this is using the death of Floyd to go grab some free stuff.  It's disgusting.

 
Mr. Ham said:
...and when government blows through all of these norms, it’s not harmless. It creates a sense that revolution is needed to be heard. Very dangerous stuff.

I feel like you’ve said all this with this anti-Trump tone.

But Trump didn’t create this in 4 years.

Biden and Obama didn’t fix it in 8.

How long has Pelosi been in office?  McConnell?

It’s a total systems failure.

With respect, you’re missing the point. That’s the outliers. This ripped open a scab and it’s badly infecting and oozing.

I am missing the point of destroying your own communities, robbing innocent people that aren't against you, and then those same people doing the destruction will be looking for the government handout to fix everything next month.  

I totally get the point of protest police brutality.  That crap needs to end immediately everywhere.  Every cop should be forced to wear a camera.  Every cop beating someone when their life isn't in danger should be put in jail immediately.  

 
The Grove fire was at one of those kiosks- the kind that sell cell phones. Doesn’t look like any of the actual buildings were damaged. 
The Grove is a major outside shopping center. 

 
Mr. Ham said:
The point is when government doesn’t care about you or represent you, you look for something else, and it isn’t pretty. 

I am not condoning nor do I understand the sentiment. But buckle in.

This confuses me too.  Not saying you're wrong and in fact you are likely correct.  I'm just saying all we hear day in day out is the libs are the party for the black folks yet all these riots are happening in major cities mostly run by liberals.  And before I get the riff raff jumping in and responding I don't think either party cares about people they just care about votes.

He makes cancer look like getting a hummer from Gal Gadot while lying in a hammock on Oahu. He's the worst thing in the world. 

Naturally, instead of calling for calm, he just tweeted about how the weak Democrat mayor in Minneapolis should have had this under control 2 days ago. What a piece of garbage.

All he knows how to do is attack and lay blame.

I forgot cans of spray paint.  A.C.A.B. Spray painted everywhere downtown.  Just in case you've never heard of that before: All Cops Are Bastards.

There was an opportunity here to show his support of the black community.

I don’t think he said “Racism, “equality,” or “civil rights” once.  

Really piss poor job, and just confirms the mindset that the system doesn’t care about you.

 
ACAB just set another cop car on fire and somehow this is Trumps fault. Take a long look in the mirror, these are extreme leftists.

I don’t think it’s pawning off.

It’s entirely possible Antifa found a reason to do their thing and they’re just terrible people.

I don’t know why Burning buildings is default “the right.”

The problem is...over and over...its not just Antifa...it makes a nice scapegoat for those on the right, but we have seen its not just them right now.
