The origin of the American Police lies in enforcing slavery, intimidating voters, and breaking unions. They were always political tools.

That you can't differentiate between "not under the control of the government" and "paid for", means only that.
SophieClockwise
They do this because they know there'll be no repercussions. America will rage, then give up, and everything will continue as it always has.
You have to push harder if you want something, *anything* to change. Don't sit thinking your only duty is to vote once every four years.

By the way things are being handled, this could escalate to semi-revolution. I know some cops are nice people, but the 90% does this stuff..

Imagine if those protestors suddenly CHARGED the cops? If reversed how different would this have turned out. Just disgusting
If the protesters charged the cops I'd give it about five seconds until the live ammo started to fly and another cop led massacre began

No it's not. This is demanding fair treatment for a minority. Hong Kong is losing its democracy. We will get this right. HK lost

For any lawyer out there: Is it illegal to fight back in self defense from an incoming attack from the police?

I think it was an Australian mews crew i the US. At least thats what i got from the headlines ive seen.

It's not even remotely equivalent to Hong Kong. Thousands of journalists and protesters aren't being tortured or disappeared.

It’s not common, but look up “cia secret prisons”. They were allowed after 2001. Most overseas, but some in us too (Chicago has one)
Well once you declare a made up group of people terrorists and demand they start to be hunted down like ISIS...

HK resident here, we are laughing how Americans were all about "supporting us" but as soon as something like our situation happens to them..
suddenly protesters are thugs. and groups like antifa are now terrorists

Not really the same though. There's individuals in PDs that are doing this while others are deescalating just fine. HK's is FAR worse

Is it though? https://old.reddit.com/r/PublicFreakout/comments/gu3s6j/police_shoots_protestor_for_no_reason/fsg94zy/
um, have you SEEN the HK protests? this is chump change compared to a system where protesters are getting shipped to godknowswhere
What I was trying to point out is that trying to minimize this by comparison is grotesque. The cops are seriously out of control.
I'm not minimizing it by comparison. Likening what's happening to systemic oppression by an authoritarian state is a gross misunderstanding
jutsi90127001

HK being worse doesn't put us anywhere near okay.
and where did I say that?
It was my impression you were implying it. Looks like watering down the original argument.
justonemorepicturepls
It's happening and nobody holds them accountable. The moment you have to compare which one does more of the bad thing you have already lost
uhhh, have you ever seen HK police deescalate at all?
I'm not saying it isn't worse in HK. I'm saying your'e seeing very clear parallels which should worry you. But sure, argue semantics instead
I'm not denying there isn't a problem. But the fact that there is deescalation AT ALL means the underlying problem is completely different

Don’t forget they tear gassed the peaceful protestors and shot rubber bullets at the crowd for a Trump PHOTO OP before DC’s curfew began.

So a curfew to not protest at night for safety and yet people are confused as to why they are getting their ass beaten? Go home
Protest again in the morning.
MrBoogerPig
It was before the curfew even began

Its our fucking RIGHT to have a PEACEFUL protest. It was BEFORE curfew. What the hell is wrong w/ you? Ur condoning this police brutality!?
[deleted]
Why do you think people not breaking the law deserve to be fired upon?
Looking out my window in DC right now, Because that protester is spray painting a coffee shop. That is closed down again...
I like how you are reporting my comments. This is why you will never have a voice. Your are a hypocrite.
Tear gas and rubber bullets were unleashed before the curfew started. The protestors were exercising their constitutional right to be there.
Don’t feed the trolls. What is happening in the US & in this moment in DC is dire. No time to waste on someone who supports police brutality
They have a constitutional right to back the fuck up as well if directed. Show me there occupation permit? Yes you are required one in DC.
It is not peaceful just because you showed the fuck up and declared it one person doing one dumb thing is going to be met with force
Enjoy getting your ass beat for walking with sheep and not driving change like a wolf
This doesn't even make sense. What are you talking about? It was a 100% peaceful protest. What one dumbfuck? What one dumb thing?
Imalwaysready
At a church where even the pastor said he wasn't invited, didn't alert them, didn't even bother to pray, took some pictures, and left.
acme64
well, the church is closed, why would anyone be there
There were people in the courtyard, probably protesters fleeing after police pushing them out of other areas
The church is behind a public park that is often used for protests. No one was at the church they were in the park/on the street
You have to walk through the park and in the street where the protestors were to get from the White House to the church.
The pastor immediately condemned Trump for using their church and his treatment of the protestors.
