Kind of like that old phrase, “nothing good ever happens after midnight”.

Let’s see - there are laws against setting private property on fire, against breaking and entering, against looting, assault and so on. So, do you think those that intend to loot and burn are going to pay attention to a curfew?

He’s right...there were about 300 still on the streets after curview and many unwilling to move out.

Maybe the ‘Rats should stop funding, enabling and encouraging ANTIFA/BLM?

It’s good to protect the city from liability.

Not quite as good as protecting the city from riots.

But these days you gets what you gets.

He says that while his officers were lounging two blocks away. The young man with the rifle was actually clearing the streets, albeit clumsily.

And if the Communist Rat mayor, Communist Rat DA, Communist Rat Governor, and Communist Rat Police Chief ever decided to do their jobs instead of being on the Antifa payroll, then these riots would end immediately.

Gee...

Don't you think that horse is out of the barn if it comes down to blaming things on violating a curfew?

Also not trying to kill a guy holding an AR-15 might help.

So that’s two things right there that could have prevented the shootings.

... appeared to shift the blame for the shooting to those who broke the city's curfew

It's a true fact but it's just like the press to utilize such language as weaponized criticism. Jacob Blake wouldn't have been shot if he hadn't wrestled with the cops, if tasing him hadn't failed, if he wasn't carrying a knife, if he wasn't resisting arrest and putting everyone--children included--in harms way. If he had stayed away from the girlfriend, where he was not welcomed, he wouldn't have been shot because the police wouldn't have been called.

He had been down this road before at least once in 2015, resisted arrest, and had a gun in his vehicle. It's not like he should be surprised by there being consequences to his actions.

From what has been reported, Kyle Rittenhouse was on militia duty that evening and would be exempt from curfew.

And Jacob Blake wouldn’t have been shot if he had complied with the police officer’s orders.

Guy is a moron...

So, those of you in favor of curfews: will they be made mandatory nationwide? Under what authority?

Hearing those rioters get the karma they deserved was hilarious..from “DEFUND THE POLICE” to “OMG WHERE ARE THE COPS SAVE US SAVE US” guess there were not enough social workers to help assist such a pity

Is he referring to the shooter? Or the shootee’s?
