I just saw this on CNN and couldn't believe that they actually did this. The guy puts the front of his suv up against a barrier and then plows into the crowd with it. Just amazingly stupid!

Apparently those guys didn't get the memo. Driving over people at a protest is not OK. Oh wait, they're cops, they're used to getting away with murder.
Watching police use excessive force / brutality at protests brought on by police brutality just reinforces the already existing notion of who the police force tends to hire and what they're trained to do.

Was coming to post that. Asking people to wear a mask in public? Tyranny. Police opening fire on people standing on their own porch. A OK.Your cops don't really believe in deescalation do they?

I've seen some of it and a lot is simply impossible to justify and makes the whole point of this situation clear. Excessive force, force without provocation, targeting of the press, etc. If the idea was to exhibit professionalism and that the protesters/rioters don't have a legitimate grievance then many (though not all) departments utterly failed.

DeBlasio: “I blame President Trump for creating this environment!”
Also DeBlasio: “The cops driving into the crowd did nothing wrong!”
This guy needs to get cancelled. Now. Bye bye.

White people storming a state capitol with semi-auto long guns caused a legislature to flee the building and minimal police response. If armed black people stormed a capital building the Air Force would drop a JDAM on them.

It seems like Floyd's death unleashed a vicious circle: unjustified police violence prompts protests, which leads the police to find more excuses for unjustified violence, which results in more protests.
I know this can't last forever, but I'm not sure where it ends. If Biden wins in November (hopefully!), he'll have a gigantic mess to clean up.

Theres one I find really disturbing and its not that violent . Its the one of that hyped up cop looking like an extra from a dystopian nightmare movie bouncing around and waving his riot gun. He just looks like he's itching to kill someone.

There was a push for it long ago but then it got hyper militaristic as basically departments became a dumping ground for ex military and tactical assholes.Your cops don't really believe in deescalation do they?
Went from "verbal judo" to nuetralize the threat...everyone is an enemy combatant

What I am afraid of is if the protesters are forced to take up arms to defend themselves from the cops who across the country have also targeted the press.......these are sad times...

I'm still waiting for a mass of molotov cocktails ballistically entering the Whitehouse barrier.
