Ferguson, MO

Breaking now on ABC News National: the other three police have been charged and the murderers charge has been upgraded. I’ll try to find a link on the inter-webs.

CNN

so can everyone stop protesting, rioting and looting and just get back to social distancing? Or are the protests not about George and instead about the false narratives that there is systemic racism in police departments all over America, black people are targeted by cops for murder and whatever other myths the BLM movement has come to be about?

 

[sggatecl]

You're very welcome.

U.S. Park police are saying they DID NOT tear gas protestors at the White House and further claim that demonstrators were attacking cops. Spokesperson says the crowd was disbursed with smoke cannisters (which DO NOT have an irritant in them) because park police were being pelted with water bottles and rocks and protestors had climbed on top of the structure that had been burned the day before. He further says, as Tinsel pointed out they were unaware of the impending Trump visit at the time. The skeptical part of me is not the least bit surprised.

Edit: and of course, I'm now less disappointed as I find out maybe it didn't go down the way they said it did.

Police have investigated the police and found the police clear of any wrong doing. Sounds like an Onion article.

More like police have read lies told about them and countered with the truth. Sounds like reality with how the media covers this garbage - they're dying for stories of overly aggressive police action and they jump to conclusions without verifying and are almost always found to be full of shit.

Oh...?

Did you see the footage of the Australian news crew who were doing nothing at all but filming and reporting, the camera man was struck with a riot shield in the gut, and the reporter was chased off and eventually shot with a rubber bullet....IN THE BACK

It's actually caused the state department to have to investigate now, but yeah...it's probably just more MSM full of shit.

Damn, can't even trust the AP now. I'm down to Reuters now. I hope y'all don't shun that next. How can we have discussions when nobody trusts anyone's source at all? BLM says they were attacked first, BLM supporter only believes that. Police says they were attacked first, police supporter only believes that. Shit is fucked up.

 

[sggatecl]

Unfortunately your AP links didn?t work for me for some reason.

Still working for me, I dunno.

Don?t know I?ve ever heard that Fox News is controlled by either George Soros or the Deep State - now that there - that would be some breaking news!

Nah, that's the Rupert Murdock show.

Anyways, this link within my previous link, confirms that Park Police claim that violence had indeed erupted, and reports the responding Park Police were unaware of the ensuing Trump visit.

So...again, one will perceive things as one will.

They sure will, that's more and more apparent every day. You linked a Fox News article, most people that post here will believe that over an AP article. But then the same people will complain about CNN or MSNBC.

Maybe she crop dusted them. That might be construed as assault. State department won't do shit. America first and all that.

Yes. Did you see that it was a big crowd? it's mayhem out there, the peaceful and innocent are sometimes going to get caught up with the bad guys and sometimes a cop may go too far, especially after being pelted with rocks. It's not an excuse, but it is evidence that maybe something other than a 100% peaceful protest was taking place there. Besides, I didn't say the MSM was full of shit about that - I said the MSM was full of shit about the police using tear gas (they were) and that the protest was 100% peaceful (it very likely wasn't, but shockingly we're not being shown any footage of what led up to the police action). Good try though.

I'm not shunning anyone but the idea that the AP or Reuters are above reproach or that they're even any more objective is nonsense.

Shit is fucked up, no doubt and neither side is perfect but it's pretty clear the body of evidence supports the cops in the majority of cases. That would appear to be the case here as well - it's no so hard to believe cops were being pelted with rocks and water bottles at a scene where terrorists set fire to Church less than a day ago. Your Trump vs Reality video which apparently came from the AP starts with the police action - doesn't show anything before that. Don't you find that a little odd?

Oh sorry, rubber bullets in the back being much more preferable then tear gas, also they used tear gas.

And watch the video, they didn't get caught up with bad guys.

First link is because you'll dismiss the second right away.

Also, note that as the reporter was fleeing, as ordered, one of the cops swatted her in the back with a baton, but go ahead and make some more excuses.

The video was not released by the AP. News footage was spliced with the extremely distasteful propaganda piece put out by the White House.

I linked several AP articles/sources to corroborate the images shown. I thought that would be enough, I was clearly mistaken.

As far as beyond reproach? No. But they're closer than anything else out there. I stand by that. It's reporting without opinions stuffed in. Exactly why they dont have multi million dollar cable channels. It's be boring as hell to watch and America can't handle that.

They're going to have to.

Our State Department made a pretty big stink (and rightly so) over the murder of Jamal Khashoggi, it would look pretty bad if we simply ignored this, considering we have very good relations with Australia.

What minute?

When the cunt was standing still instead of running?
Or when the other cunt was sitting down instead of running?

A big stink... But ultimately did nothing.

Okay.

In #733, I said I heard a report on KABC radio that the Park police said they were responding to violence and they didn?t even know Trump would be walking through the area shortly there after. So I looked that up on the Internet and one corroborating story was from Fox News. Then I clicked on a link within the link and in #735, I posted that link; apparently Neal Augustine, a reporter with a Washington DC radio station, claims to have a source at the park police who made these statements, and Augustine seems to be Fox?s source for the story.

I don?t know the reporter and I don?t know the radio station but I do know this ? if I am a reporter, and I am reporting on something that the Park police did, the first thing I?m going to do is I?m going to go to the park police. ?There are reports that you teargassed peaceful protesters in order to allow President Trump to walk through the area shortly there after for a photo op at the church. How do you respond to that??

Now maybe the Park police are going to deny it, which is apparently what they?ve done. Are they lying? I have no idea. I also don?t care. If I am a reporter I?m supposed to report the facts. Let people come to their own conclusions.

It seems to me that no one in the press who is claiming that the police action was done to make a way for Trump to walk through the area has confirmed that was the reason with anyone who would actually know - at least, I haven?t heard that they did. The only one who has gotten anything from the horses mouth is this Augustine guy, assuming he actually spoke to someone with the police - again, if he really did, we don?t know if he was lied to or not.

He seems to be a local in DC guy who may have better access to information from police than people at CNN or MSNBC.

What are you talking about?

Standing still or sitting down is not a crime, so what fucking difference does anything you posted make?

And the only "cunt" here is you.

Can't wait to see Trump's tweetsplosion on this. Should be good.

the coroner will rule the cause of death as COVID-19. he was clearly having respiratory problems.

Just when you thought shit could not possibly get any more fucked up.

watched the video. The reporter said that the police did not discriminate between the violent crowd and the reporters. See, the protests are working...the police aren't discriminating anymore. :tup:

Just when you thought shit could not possibly get any more fucked up.

The medical examiner?s office had issued an additional report on Monday, listing his manner of death is homicide due to ?cardiopulmonary arrest complicating law enforcement subdual, restraint and neck compression.? The report also noted he had arteriosclerotic and hypertensive heart disease, fentanyl intoxication, and recent use of methamphetamine and cannabis.

So this guy had a heart attack. A guy with heart disease, Covid-19 & taking a drug cocktail, is restrained and has a heart attack. If these cops get a decent lawyer they are going to get off light.
