The NYPD had defended the tactics, with then-Commissioner Dermot Shea claiming they were “executed nearly flawlessly.” Shea also noted that some of the demonstrators were found to be brandishing hammers, lighter fluid, gas masks and fireworks.

It is just a different way to transfer funds to the left and their causes and organizations and a powerful encouragement for future demonstrators to show up and work for the payday.

Right you are. People learn what you teach them

Lesson #1 is for the rioters: If you riot, we will pay you.

Ah, but there is a second lesson here.
Lesson #2 is for the NYPD: Don’t be too quick to break up a riot. It’s not worth it.

$21,500 for each one of the “kettled” BLM negros. Serious prison time for each honky JSixer. What’s wrong with this picture. Crackers need RACE CARDS TOO!

Protests are part of the con as anyone with a grudge gets a settlement instead of the police being defended for being in the right.
