Your very first post in this thread was absurd...assuming...and frankly insulting....and directed at “all”....you accused us “all” of defending the rioters when in fact NO poster has done do....
And now several times you have baited and switchedterms “off the street” go home”....”riot area”....
As was pointed out to you in post 404...there has been no state of emergency or curfew put in place....and you completely glossed over the fact that the cops threw tear gas directly at the press...
Crim, I know you’re doing the best you can. Unfortunately, it isn’t good enough on this one.
Whether you like it or not, or whether you understand it or not, the police have the right to demand you clear an area. No curfew has to have been called. No national guard is required.
Try to think of all the special circumstances where the police limit access and have to demand the public do certain things without a curfew or national guard involvement.
This is the same thing. Police have the right to direct the public to obey their demands. The public is required to follow their orders.
Try not follow a policeman’s orders and see just how far you get in court before you are fined or jailed.
As for my comment that folk were supporting the rioters, it may surprise you to know that if you trash the only people who are there to stop the rioters, what that in essence means.
It means the rioters are free to do what they want.
Duh!
