On Saturday some dude, covered in dyed pepper spray walked up and down the no man’s land between the Police and protestors. He made the following paraphrased soliloquy
We outnumber you
You say we are violent
You say you use batons, pepper spray and flashbangs to protect yourselves
We have been here standing up against this for 4 hours today, none of that will stop us
We can take you down whenever we want
We know who you are
We know where you live
You say we are violent
But we can take you down any time
Everyone here can show up with a bat
Everyone here can throw Molotov cocktails
Most everyone here can show up with a gun
We can take you down any time we want
We don’t because we are not violent
We don’t because that is wrong and we are on the side of being right
We do this because you make us do this to be heard
Listen and we can have peace
I thought it was pretty eloquent and to the point. If people are afraid of these people who can stand and get beaten silly for hours night after night after night, imagine how afraid you should be if they get pushed to the point where they abandon the idea of peace. The idea of civil disobedience is an American tradition. When normal channels fail to work this is what is left. Disobedience is breaking the law by definition but is not lawlessness, people need to really understand the distinction.
Only a matter of time...
i guess dhs stormtroopers will be providing protection......

Outside police agencies pulling out of Democratic convention
Wisconsin police departments are withdrawing from agreements to send personnel to help bolster security at the Democratic National Convention in Milwaukee next month, citing concerns with a recent order for the city's police to stop using tear gas to control crowds. A citizen oversight commission

Looks like Seattle's goon squad is going home. The political bandstanding that pressure from local politicians is laughable. There is no Federal property near any of the local protests and any action would have been illegal and undefendable.
What's going to happen when you get a bulk push back the other way? At a certain point, it will likely happen. You have 50 cops? Great. There's 1000 people who are done with your shit. People fighting back is becoming more and more prevalent. What is the tipping point for people with nothing left to lose?

The narrative that blacks will rise violently started as a means to get the support of poor white southerners during the Civil War. That narrative has become ingrained into American society, despite 200+ years of evidence otherwise.DHS stormtroopers

Apparently her crime was putting stickers on security cameras. NYPD is claiming the arresting officers were pelted with rocks and bottles.

Guns are only for scaring or shooting black folk over there man!
You can't use them on the man!
That's totally not what the NRA have trained them for!
constitutional right to not be snatched from from the streets by unmarked cops/cars without a warrant/due process, aka kidnapping > right to not wear a mask.
Surprised american media appears to be so cool with that.
I know of ex-presidents sent to jail for that once the term ended.
That was a fairly common practice of dictators in south america.

I think history will show most of the violence was initiated by these fuckers.

Head of NYPD union gives Fox News interview with QAnon mug in background | CNN
The head of the New York Police Department's second-largest police union gave a television interview Friday afternoon while sitting in front of a mug emblazoned with QAnon imagery and slogans.

Pretty sure Qanon is going to the be the equivalent of what regan did in the 80s with christians to secure a voting block.
And these are the shitheads that complain about virtue signaling............. "see my mug guys? see it? see it?"

Further depression sets in. I spent 25 years enforcing laws, trying to be the good Cop, trying to treat good people well and bad people well, badly. I didn't want to be a Cop, I was a punker kid who ran from them all the time just to see what they would do, and if they could catch me (Never did...)...the Air Force said this job is a good fit, I said okay, lets have some fun...and you'll give me some college $$ along the way, right?
Fast forward more years than I care to admit. I did (almost) all of it. Training, plain clothes, Standardization and Evaluation, Anti and Counter Terror, straight leg patrol, supervisor...yeah, a lot of stuff. Graduated from 3 academies (Civilian and military...) along the way. I learned a lot about that world, loved some of it, hated some of it. The good days were great, the bad days horrible. Along the way I got tired of dealing with good people at bad times and resolved that when I was done, I was done. When I retired I went into the fitness world, and never looked back. Until now.
When I look at the things going on around us, I am sickened and shocked, but not surprised. Use of Force (UoF) protocols are routinely ignored, probably by small, under/non trained individuals who hide behind big badges, credentials and qualified immunity. They are supervised by others who are simply happy to go along to get along, something I was warned about routinely by my training officers way back when. In short, it is piss poor police work. Those protesting police brutality are told from the cradle that they can trust police, that these are the people that they can go to with a problem...yet when they are beaten down, gassed and chased away from their very own neighborhoods and often front porches by those they are told to trust it becomes a vicious cycle that has no end.
I grew up a frustrated and marginalized kid. A have not in a world of haves. Looking back, like many of us, I realize it wasn't as bad as I made it out to be...it was never as bad as it could have been...I was a suburban white kid. Why do those with badges and their overlords continue to make it worse for some of us? The answer is power. Absolute power. And you guys know what they say about absolute power.
I stayed in that world as long as I did because I deluded myself that my contributions mattered, and that the bullies that I hated as a child were being defeated through my efforts. Then I realized that those same bullies were all around me, and were often in charge of me. That sickened me, and left me ashamed and feeling that I wasted much of my life that I can never recover.
There is but one race, the human race...why cant we get along?
