Bullshit. The criminal element (and false flaggers, as confirmed and reported) that attached itself to decent protesters was a tiny segment of the people there and who were causing harm. City and state officials said so themselves. Yeah, really.

Why? You will always side with the police. Look at them spray her in the face with pepper spray! Oh didn't the cop tell her to move away from there... If protests are legal why did the police ask them to move if they were just standing there? If you are such a big proponent of Constitutional rights then you should be very careful about the police who have the most license to violate your rights at any moment using any justification. Again, when the armed people stormed the state capital in violation of the curfew, why didnt the police gas them to get them out of there and to go home? You keep mentioning looters and rioters but the police were not gassing looters and rioters in most of the cases, they were doing it to people marching. Police should be limited in their powers to decide in one case we need to obstruct yor rights but in others we are ok with it.
These cops handled this poorly, that's for sure. But she is resisting an order to disperse. The cop is kicking her shoulder to get her to roll over and be handcuffed. Still, they need to be aware how this looks to further enrage the crowd.
1. Again I don't know all the details of the kids in the car and I'm guessing neither do you. Therefore I cannot explain the action. Cops were fired. 2. Don't care about the media, they are fueling and facilitating the violence. They get what they get. Fuck em 3. Looting is not the only crime. If I am out in that crowd, refuse to comply with police commands to move, the I get what I get in response.
Some of these videos are during the day time... Again why so quick to defend police who have very few restrictions on violating your rights.
