Thanks for posting some good, accurate information.
That said, having a family member with DPD, I’d rather not see any riots, personally. I think we’re forgetting that some people will be hurt and some may even be killed in these riots. The anarchists did a similar one in Italy a while back and managed to hit a policeman with a Molotov cocktail.
When they had a bunch of leftist/anarchist protests in Denver (I can’t even remember what it was about!) a year or two ago, the police collected weapons and parts of weapons of all kinds that had been hidden around the protest area by sympathizers already in Denver. Some were things that had been broken down into parts to be assembled by the “protester,” who would clearly have been informed in advance where the parts were located.
These people are not your old-style “shout and scream and maybe throw some rocks” protestor.
I agree. If the leftists just make fools of themselves that is one thing. I worry for the DPD, Secret Service, Denver residents and property owners. I really don’t think DPD should show much restraint in the face of threats that have been made. If I was the mayor it would be like this: “First two rounds are rubber bullets, all the rest are real ones”.
