Kenosha Riot Live Thread

Posted on 08/24/2020 8:44:50 PM PDT by Mount Athos

After only a couple hours rioters have set multiple buildings on fire, looting and methodically smashing windows on one building after another.

Camera crews and national guard are standing in place on the courthouse block, but the vast bulk of rioting is elsewhere.

There are several reports of shooting, and I've seen heavily armed private security at a still operating gas station shown. (look like regular civilians not pro)

Sizable group of police establishing perimeter so fire department can put out one fire. But there are so many fires.

Report of someone shot in face by homeowner with buckshot from shotgun.

The Democrats are gonna ratchet up the violence, the looting and burning of more cities in America as we get closer to November. What the hell else can they do? They have to scare America into voting for them!

Did I just see what I thought I saw. A cop had Antifa people with guns on the ground and he let them pick up their guns and leave. What have things come to in this country?

Yea, I saw that too. I'm surprised he didn't give them each a crisp $20 and firm handshake.

That is my understanding as well. Protect critical buildings/infrastructure and let local police handle the rest. Personally, I would have 500 NG troops patrolling the city as well.

A severe thunderstorm is heading towards the Kenosha area. If it holds together should be there in less than an hour.

Lawlessness continues for a second night in #Kenosha, Wisc. @Julio_Rosas11 records shocking footage showing a rioter calmly pouring accelerant inside a truck and then setting it on fire. #BlackLivesMatter pic.twitter.com/zCGGB864td— Andy Ngô (@MrAndyNgo) August 25, 2020

HOLY SH*#: while interviewing this #BLM rioter in Kinosha he pulls out a real pistol and points it at my camera while explaining what we would do to cops if they rolled up on us right now

It’s been a while since I had a gun pointed at me even if it was just to make a point pic.twitter.com/hjQqO9Ccbb— ELIJAH RIOT (@ElijahSchaffer) August 25, 2020
