I think 90% of us agree that- Bad cops who murder people by sitting on them for long periods of time: BAD Good cops who apply the law in a fair and just way: GOOD Peaceful protesters who want to voice their opinion: GOOD Rioters who want to destroy property and beat and shoot people: BAD It seems like a few bad apples are about to force a race war.
Miami. So far lots of sirens, burnt cop car and a couple of beat downs on civilians by thugs. The Cops have done a great Job. They have all exits leading to black town on 1-95 with patrol cars blocking the exit and ready to move in. about 15-20 cop cars per exit blocking and ready to whoop ass. Cops have like snipers on the roof of their station right off of I-95. I went to Miami beach yesterday and was calm.
One bad apple tear gassed a bunch of peaceful protestors so he could look tough. I actually kind of get the rioting. The social contract is broken. They kneel and are told that’s not the way to protest. They see white protestors walking around with ar-15s and are told that those people are “fine.” How else are they supposed to be heard? It’s populism the other way.
These protests will end soon. Think people will protest for weeks and months?? Never going to happen.
Once they show up the show is over, everyone will be back inside playing video games, eating avocado toast, streaming movies and planing their next sweater purchase.
The left leaning Govs and Mayors are hoping to force that on Trump. That way the media can say he’s a racist dictator. Fortunately half or more of the protesters are white so I’m not sure that argument will hold up.
Politicians only care about power, money and votes. The elites promote abuse of power until only they have power. Violence hurts small business, not the global corporations flush with red money. How do everyday people make the abuse of power stop?
