Forget guns. Ban all concrete blocks ( and D party concerts blockheads).

(from the article) : "We were just informed that the officer who had a concrete block dropped on his head during I-94 riot has broken vertebrae."

And if the police had thrown that concrete block back at the demonstrators,
they would have been charged with exacerbating the situation.

As soon as BLM protestors show up and try to block traffic the police need to be VIOLENT and take them out so they get the message that there crap will not be tolerated.

broken spine!!!! stupid question, does that mean you are paralyzed???

everybody, every FReepers, watch out for these mother ####ers and give it to them before they give it to you if attacked.

I talk a tough game and am pretty tough but this has me a little shaken. Concrete blocks!!

Throwing concrete through a cops window to kill him and family.

I live in NYC and have taken drastic steps to protect me and my own. I know many are prepared.

But a concrete block thrown from behind at your head makes any means of self defense useless.

The solution is quite simple, actually. Police should keep protestors encircled by whatever means. Tell them that since these protestors have become a threat to police and they don't respect the authority and judgement of police, they'll have to set up their own security where they are. If anyone enters or leaves, it's through a specific location. Give a flier to anyone entering that it's a self-policing zone.

It NEVER should have happened that large groups were allowed to protest or march without a permit. When they blocked roads, intersections, and public access to things, that was totally out of hand. Does anyone have a clue why they weren't arrested when this BS first started?

Not necessarily, but it's a serious injury, with serious risk of permanent, life altering damage (to include paralysis).

Yesterday, before I knew any police were injured severely, I said: “Police should have video that zooms in on the faces of every single thug at these riots, so they can later identify the criminals who initiate violence. This was assault with a deadly weapon and battery. The violent rioters should be locked up for at least a decade each for their crimes.”

Whether they are good at aiming and actually cripple their targets, or bad at throwing and miss, anyone who threw an object capable of causing injury at the police belongs in prison for a long time. The one who actually hit this cop deserves at least 20 years behind bars, and I’d prefer life without parole for him.

Saw my first concrete block thrown by one of Obama’s sons from an overpass onto a car in front of me while on a freeway in Detroit. Early 1980’s. Just bounced off the trunk, but could have been deadly. Always check overpasses since then.

Philando was a man of peace and dignity.

I would dispute this assertion.

According to the FBI blacks are more likely to kill cops than be killed by cops.

A law should be passed that if protesters block traffic drivers are permitted to make them a hood ornament.

Shouldn’t single white women, ESPECIALLY mothers, be going 5 to 1 FOR Trump instead of against him????

I think more will come around but I dont think a lot more because i think they are idiots.

I think white men will beat the spread with a 30 point margin and we WIN!

That’s all we need. White men, 25 to 30 poing margin.
