I’m curious about how many of the rioters were imported from elsewhere, funded by Soros and others.
But, but those “SOUL BROTHER” signs in windows worked so well back in the 1967 riots!
One of my favorite cartoons from that time showed a fat white home owner cleaning several shotguns. His wife says to him... “For heavens sake john, can’t we just put a SOUL BROTHER sign in the window like everyone else?”
The officer used excessive force. And he will pay the price. And
But that does not justify the looting and burning of stores.
The Left says the Police Officer did this ONLY because the Perp was Black.
If the Perp was White, would there be Rioting in the Streets and Looting?
THAT is the question, and everyone here already knows the answer.
Either way, the Video(s) are damning. The Officer’s entire body weight was pressing on the cuffed and subdued Perp’s Neck.
“Where were the Koreans?”
That’s not in an area where there are Korean businesses, but if these thugs had tried to loot the businesses, the Koreans would have been on the roofs firing their weapons.
Excellent social distancing tools
You have a valid point.
If the facts do not fit the narrative, we will not hear those facts outright. They will have to come out later from credible witnesses and physical evidence.
The only fact I am certain of is the media will stir the pot in an effort to create as much divide and violence as possible.
Many years ago a journalistic narrative was built around facts. As with everything else the left has turned upside down, today the facts are built around a narrative. And repeated by each MSM outfit until the created facts become the believed facts.
“One of my favorite cartoons from that time showed a fat white home owner cleaning several shotguns. His wife says to him... “For heavens sake john, can’t we just put a SOUL BROTHER sign in the window like everyone else?””
Haha! Good one!
Not sayin’ he was high on anything, but you asked for a “ how else.”
Were they black-owned businesses?
Hmmm... no mention of this in the MSM so I guess so.
Rioters are lawbreakers who are just looking for excuses to get away with lawbreaking, and love to dance on the corpse of dead people because it fuels their addiction to violence.
In this case, a cop seems to have killed someone. All 4 officers involved have already been fired, and there is a local, state, and federal investigation of the crime.
So why are they protesting? The government did what they have asked, so the protest is just a way to be violent.
Interesting video. This man seems quite objective.
Better yet; "Snakes for sale".
In certain places, Portland comes to mind, anarchy and violence is considered part of the city's charm.
they’re all dems.… do we car if solid blue cities burn? I sure don’t
Dr. Clarissa Cole on After Hours AM April 17, 2019
(Start at 1:18:31)
Dr. Cole: He had an epiphany; he was going to become a cop!
Eric Olsen: Ha ha ha what??? Uh, so, wait a minute, he was told by a former employer, if you ever, you better never get a job where you have influence over others, an authority position, or I’ll do whatever it takes to stop you. So wouldn’t becoming a cop kinda give him the ultimate authority over people?
Dr. Cole: Well, you know, lucky for all these other people, he kept moving from county to county so they weren’t really, uh, yeah, it is the ultimate authority he was just moving around so people wouldn’t know what he was doing, and I think getting out of the teaching profession they didn’t know what he was going to do.
He eventually applied to the Broward County Police Unit; he was rejected, though, because he failed the psychological test.
Eric Olsen: Oh that’s it he’s out of the career. No career for him He’s obviously unstable…
Dr. Cole: One, you know what? One would think so, and I actually used to perform these psych tests, and oh, do I have stories! You would think that it would even, it’s supposed to, let me tell you how it’s supposed to work, it’s supposed to prevent you from getting a job as a police officer or a prison guard.
Eric Olsen: Sure.
Dr. Cole: Does that always occur?
Eric Olsen: I would hope that it does.
Dr. Cole: No, no, no, I would say 50% of the time.
Eric Olsen: What?
Dr. Cole: It’s supposed to be a be a requirement, a REQUIREMENT, if you don’t pass, if you are not psychologically fit, you are not supposed to become a police officer or a prison guard. Does that actually preclude you from becoming a police officer even as long ago as what, 2005? No, I was doing them in 2005. Half of the people I rejected still became a cop.
Eric Olsen: How does that happen? How do they get around this?
Dr. Cole: Oh God there so many ways
Eric Olsen: Is it a buddy, a dad?
Dr. Cole: My son, he’s the son of my buddy, his dad is a cop, he has to be a cop, he’s going to work in this county and we’re really understaffed, we need people, we know he failed, but it’s OK. The amount of excuses I heard to employ people.
And that’s the thing, just so the general public is aware, it’s difficult to fail, it’s difficult to fail one of these psychological…
Eric Olsen: What would cause one…
Dr. Cole: It’s not like the bar is so darned high that no one could pass, it’s nothing LIKE that, this test is just to find out is this person basically psychologically stable, are they non-sadistic, do they not have criminal or punishing tendencies or narcissistic tendencies themselves. Basically you’re trying to weed out anybody that has a like God complex; I’m judge, jury, and executioner. You want to get those people out of there. You’re trying to get people out of there that are just psychiatrically so unstable that they can’t control their emotions so, maybe some sort of bipolar thing going on or somebody that absolutely clearly has a personality disorder, like narcissistic personality disorder, antisocial personality disorder, borderline personality disorder. They are not
Eric Olsen: Checks and balances. Checks and balances to protect the general public from somebody that would not do well in that position.
Dr. Cole: And I was very, yeah, I was extremely, forgiving on these psychological tests even when somebody would sort of hit sort of some of those marks on the tests we would give, I would ask in interviews I would ask a ton of questions just to be very, very sure that this person was indeed failing the psychological exam, and I did not fail that many people, but the people I failed, please believe me that it was for extremely good reasons, extremely good reasons, and half of them became cops anyway.
Eric Olsen: So when they‘d leave would they go to a different state and do it?
Dr. Cole: Hah no, they would get hired by different a county, like a couple minutes over usually. Somebody knew them and “Now let’s pick them up.” “No, no, no, he has really strong sadistic tendencies and fantasies of rape and murder, you really shouldn’t hire him” and they would. And that’s exactly, I hope it’s different that was like I said, this was in 2005, it scared the heck out of me and I said I would never have a career doing that I don’t want to know that those people are becoming officers.
Eric Olsen: Tell me it’s in the minority, though, that this happens.
Dr. Cole: It’s in the minority that people fail, the majority of people passed. But those that do fail, like I said it’s for very good reason, but half of them. Half of them got picked up. So no, it’s not a minority a full 50% got hired.
Eric Olsen: That is truly a scary number out there that 50% of...
Dr. Cole: It’s a small sample, a small sample that was in a place that was economically depressed and needed officers…

Interesting. The two “armed rednecks” I saw interviewed, packing heat, protecting business, former military — were black.
Shades of the LA riots; armed Korean (legal immigrants) protecting their businesses with shotguns. I don’t recall them being called “rednecks” or KKK at the time...
