One man got out of his truck, confronted the mob and started screaming at them to get the f**k out of the road!

Here is the Catch 22. Law enforcement stands down, people do it themselves (not an ideal situation, which is why we have law and order in the first place). Once the people handle it themselves, law enforcement comes and arrests or kills them. That’s where we are. We didn’t get here overnight; it won’t be solved overnight.

"Do you expect us to mass arrest the protesters? You know that’s not going to happen."

If it were a Trump rally they'd figure it out.

“Negotiate”?

Seriously?

Smells like appeasement to me. How's bout ‘negotiating with the armed thug who holds up the quick shop?

I know officers in Plano PD and they all say the protesters should have been arrested. Couldn’t tell me why they weren’t arrested but looking at the mayor and police chief I guess we can see why.

Police Chiefs do what they are told to do.

They are employees, not elected officials.

Zoomed in on the picture.....not a paintball gun or electronic device....appears to be a .25 or .380 semi-automatic....you can see the slide.....

Yep, which means that the Plano police chief lied about the threat - twice. Paxton needs to deal effectively with this.

In his case, yes. He would hold his dog while it was being raped. He would undress his wife for her rapers. He would help them load up all his stuff. And last but not least, he would furnish the materials and light them to burn his house down. And as they left, he would call after them, “ What did I do to you to cause you to hate me.”

The fact that Soros expects certain things in exchange for those bags of cash - that's probably the root of it.

You mean outgoing Mayor? Mayor Harry is a good guy. He's done lots of good things for Plano ... and is especially devoted to the youth in the city. Not sure what his views on this incident are.

Bunch of lilly livered faggots..

I guess we should expect such talk from an Okie.

Stop lumping in all TX law enforcement officers together over the judgement of a few.

“You have to understand the situation.” urged the Chief. “We have to negotiate with these people. Do you expect us to mass arrest the protesters? You know that’s not going to happen.”

How about doing the onee of the jobs you are being paid to do and restore order for illegal protesting.

Citizens need to provide top cover.

The protests are well advertised so providing "overwatch" shouldn't be too difficult.

And yet groups like Oathkeepers get demonized for doing exactly so...

Let’s not post ridiculous comments that will be used against us here, ok?

Protesters need to be spanked (metaphorically speaking), not killed.

In LE you are required to use the minimum amount of force necessary. Rubber bullets, crowd dispersal, mass arrests of CROWD LEADERS would get the job done.

If only the snowflakes in their cars could have gotten a pair and formed up with the big guy there would have been enough to shut down the BLM protest and cleared the street.
