Joe Rogan and Bill Burr talk Seattle....
It's gonna keep getting crazier and crazier until the elections dude (things might even kick off then). These people want martyrs and are gonna go outta their way to get them.This is getting insane.
Atlanta Police Chief has now resigned.
Atlanta police chief steps down after black man shot and killed by an officer
Why is a citizen of a fake country a moderator here?Last warning. Keep this thread on track. We have a whole thread of political bullshit.
Got a link to that?For anyone watching the Floyd protest videos and wondering why fireworks/firecrackers are being tossed at the police... turns out the 'protestors' were/are tossing bottle of gasoline at riot cops and NG guys in formation. The useful idiots doing this were trying to set our guys on fire, but failed.
If anyone remembers what happened to that captured Jordanian pilot... that's what the these people were trying to do.
The people who set this in motion need to be treated like enemy HVT's. Same with their spies and collaborators. Any foreign assets associated with this movement should be dealt with as well. These people are enemy combatants and traitors.
Add on: Any politicians giving top cover for these protestors are part of the problem as well.

I feel like there is much more to this story. Lotta variables at play. Press being used as cover by some of the rioters. Rioter scouts cosplaying as press to gather data. In one case a camera crew was sitting right on a rioter supply cache. Not clearing the area, etc.I first heard about the police attacking protesters on Joe Rogan but haven't watched any of the clips until today. The cops aren't doing themselves any favors not disciplining the police seen in these videos.
I understand in a lot of cases they're enforcing curfews or clearing crowds, but doesn't the 1st Amendment still cover the ability of Press to cover these events?
Police Attacking Press in Several Cities
Denver is doing the same thing....Seattle continuing to get really dumb.
Seattle schools chief, School Board announce intention to suspend partnership with police
Only thing I can find* is a LEO being set on fire in Mexico. Nothing CONUS side, nothing about protestors dousing LE with gasoline. Nothing.
*I didn't go so far as to look on Breitbart, Info Wars or some small ass conservative podcast that's flying under the Google radar.
Deputy Commissioner for Intelligence and Counterterrorism John Miller said there is a high level of confidence within the NYPD that these unnamed groups had organized scouts, medics, and supply routes of rocks, bottles and accelerants for breakaway groups to commit vandalism and violence. There are strong indicators they planned for violence in advance using at times encrypted communications, he said.

Dude, as Salt said, "got a link to that"?Got a link to that?
So... I do have a source. I've got an archived post from a NG guy who dealt with the protests on the West Coast, guy was venting. The post was scrubbed, but not before people saved copies. Reason I'm not posting it is I have no way or knowledge on how to scrub that persons identifiable info.Dude, as Salt said, "got a link to that"?
Living here in MN I literally had 4 separate monitors going with YouTube livefeeds throughout that whole weekend. Not mainstream shit, but the YouTube kids who embedded themselves in these groups, to include Unicorn Riot.
I saw nothing even remotely close to what you are describing, so again...got a link to that?
This site takes a lot of pride in the fact that we try ensure that 'reported news' is backed up; not just rhetoric. Sometimes your stuff slips by because I/we have literally no idea what you are even talking about.
For the record, I/we are not 'suppressing your speech' but you need to be better about posting links to the ideas you post 'as fact'; otherwise you will be called on for it.

Get the feeling these press people don't know what the heck they're doing or are actively impeding police forces out there. Can't just stand around with a camera and expect people to move past you. Like it or not you're gonna get involved in the melee. Rioters were tossing rocks at the press in MN... don't get why the press acts like they're immune.
I totally get what you're saying and there are some bad examples out there. Thing is we're not seeing the whole picture... the camera only captures a narrow FOV, it doesn't capture all the angles. Were not seeing what led up to that event or the abuse those officers suffered up to that point.A couple of those anecdotes might explain some of.the violence against the press, but of you go on YT and watch a few videos, you'll see several instances of cops shooting clearly marked press with camera crew with pepper balls from less than 10m away, police in full gear spraying a camera through a fence when the majority of the crowd is dispersed and on the other side, a proned out reporter holding up his press ID getting Maced in the middle of a gas station parking lot, the CNN crew getting busted on live TV, etc.
I don't even like Vice and CNN et. al , but I like tyranical behavior way less.
