What that cop did to that poor mans neck by kneeling on it was inexcusable, but it seems that now the protests are turning into pure anarchy.

Here in Birmingham, the protests weren't that ugly...at first. Things got stirred up when the protest turned from justice for a wrong deed, to tearing down monuments(a fight that was started a few years ago). THOSE agitators, (i might add accompanied by our MAYOR) when finished with the fine job of defacing public property, then moved on to destroy nearby private property. They even broke into the Alabama Power Company Museum and destroyed artifacts from the early days of electricity. As is the MO of most of these criminals, they stole from hard-working business owners and cost them thousands of dollars in repairs. These low-life thugs then threatened MY small town's police department with fire-bombing because the Chief there has really cracked down on crime-which of course is racist don't ya know. State wide curfew issued(first since 1955) and road blocks at all entry points to town with well-armed officers at each. And, in the 5 minutes I was talking to one of the officers, I saw 3 people volunteer to assist in protecting our town.

Legal protest is fine. When you spit, throw objects, assault, or damage property you are no longer protesting you are a criminal. And if you will allow these people to hide in your group, then you will have to deal with some pushback.

In St. louis 4 police shot, one retired policeman dead.
This kabuki theater of anarchy has played here before. It's playing just like BLM/ANTIFA have it planned. Better for them than Jussie Smollett’s act.  The “useful idiots “ in the media will call for unity, while lecturing you on privilege. The stimulus money is already being funneled to “social justice” causes. Local prosecuting attorney's, judges , and mayoral candidates of “hope & change” etc will be promoted for election by Soros funded groups.
NPR and MSNBC will do”‘driveway moments” and fake grieve while promoting their continuing viewpoints , but instead of Russia- Russia -Russia it will be protest - protest - protest. CNN will be offended by orange man, Fox News will run eternal Breaking News and the little web sites like Twitchy, Weasel Zippers, and Babylon Bee will entertain readers with the idiocracy the USA is immersed in.
The beat goes on, Hot town summer in the city,  it’s 1968 again ... on steroids.

My thoughts go out to those officers' family.
The only news radio station i can pick up is NPR, so if I am not listening to internet podcasts or music it is usually on in the background.. My neighbors likely think I'm a lunatic. They can't hear that I am listening to the radio, but only hear my escalating shouts of anger. You are spot-on in your characterisation of them, and their preachy, slanted and incomplete coverage.
Side note, guns and ammo sales in my county have predictably risen in the wake of the weekends rioting and looting. [ Guests cannot view attachments ]
