There is such a thing. When most of the people are peacefully protesting that means mostly peaceful. Also, law enforcement provoked and started some of the violence, just as they did in Denver and tried in Austin, there was absolutely zero rioting or anything in Austin and cops showed up (DPS, so violence is expected from them)and peaceful protesting was met with gas. Denver was peaceful then a few decided to sit in the street. People peacefully protesting and you decide fuck it weāre shooting gas? Yeah, in some cases violence needs to be met with violence and a badge doesnāt protect you from that.There is no such thing, amigo. "Mostly peaceful" doesn't work. Mostly drunk. Mostly pregnant. No. It doesn't work in my vocabulary. Mostly, means, there also is.
Bass (mayor) said it was only confined to a few streets (no mention those streets surrounding Fed buildings.) I have ZERO problems with legitimate protest. These aren't in some situations. And those need to be spotlighted, addressed. Or rather, removed.
Ya got a dude losing his life's work because they decided to loot his sushi shop...no.
I have never been to LA. I don't want to go there. But, I know enough about LA to know if you stop traffic on the 101 you're choking the city out. Those streets are in the midst of chaos. I'm sorry, but I don't see looting an I phone store as "peaceful protest." I mean, come on. If you are throwing bricks at LEO...ain't peaceful.
There is a story behind one of the Walmart folks financially supporting this ... I think it's Saturday. I haven't researched it yet. But, consider ...
Oligarchy? While ... where is it Walmart ranks in livable wages? Do you see the irony?
Walmart isnāt going to support these protests in any fashion, that family is right wing and Trump folks. So, if theyāre supporting anything it would be the overreaching cops.
Youāre bringing up a few instances, 12,000 people protesting, a couple hundred rioting which according to any math would suggest mostly peaceful. I donāt support looting or rioting, but the same people against these protests are the same people that supported the rioting of J6, wonder why that is?
