"The crimes they are arrested for - unlawful assembly, refusal to disperse, obstruction of a roadway - are usually treated as misdemeanors, and the protestors are released as soon as police processing is completed, free to resume their illegal acts."

I have very little sympathy for the cops and the city administrations. If they were to start handing out 5 year sentences this BS would end pronto. They want to make nice nice with the protestors (most city mayors where these protests have taken place literally provide board and shelter for the protestors for example) the cops love the overtime and everyone thinks this is all a game. Disgusting all of them.

Good points.

Watch what the police do if any merchant tries to use his God-given right to defend his property from looters.

Confinement is a felony. A protestor blocking my way should go to jail, end of story. if the sheeple does not want to be shot and raped like the 6 million jews, the sheeple is going to have to wake up and hold charges.
