Greg Gutfeld made an excellent point today on The Five. He asked why we have to pick a side. Why can’t we call for justice AND calm?
That’s where I am. I hate the militarization of the police and the looting.

See, that is racist. Everyone knows that the Tea Party is all white. Your race card account will be revoked over racist comments like that. At least at DU.

This is America????
The imbecile GibMeDat Blacks shot themselves in the head to call attention to the militarization and brutal Police State tactics against citizens - but seeing what amounts to martial law on the streets - the precedent and the desensitizing of this people to an every-day a brutal Police State is frightening.

Ryan Reilly of HuffPo and Wesley Lowery of WaPo both arrested. No idea why.

Sign of the times. As America resembles Ferguson, MO more and more, the cops must - at least be better armed.

First they’ll use it against a group that everyone wants to see whipped, then they’ll start using it on peaceful protestors.

I wouldn’t expect looting but I would expect “stand your ground”.

They may have gone to a tactical frequency that is either scrambled or digitally encrypted. Or, in this day and age they may simply be using cell phones.

I care nothing for these protestors, but this scene of this militarized police is disturbing. Bingo.
When they came for the Jews, I didn't speak up, because I wasn't a Jew ...
What we have here is a crowd of not very sympathetic people, who are over-reacting to a shooting. Now the government is close to imposing something like martial law, and a lot of Conservatives are saying, "Yeah! Go cops! A little crowd control, please!!"
You know, when Obama cracks down on us, it might not be so heart-warming. We live in a police state now. People shouldn't cheer about that.

Ubama gave his civilian army the “go” signal to start the civil war.

Just looked up the crime stats for the area where SWAT is set up.
It is not a “High Crime” area, not even close.
Either they are putting on a show or they are concerned about troublemakers coming in from other locations.
I get the impression that this is a SHOW !!!
