You’re posting here to young lads who still believe that we can make all society utopia if we try hard hard enough. They’ll mature and come around in time. Be sure of it.
Mate - the protests began with policemen unable to control themselves and has escalated due to policemen unable to control themselves. It doesn’t look like they’re much better at the control of crowd either as this continues without respite and the whole world looks on aghast. I’m not sure the training is all you crack it up to be.

The cops have overreacted in some instances but there cannot surely be any suggestion they started all of this? The rioting and looting came first.
It’s interesting you are defending thugs. How do you think mass looting and rioting would go down in a European capital? Ever seen a riot in Paris? No kid gloves from the cops there mate.
It’s probably best if you list out which cities you’ve seen the rioting live in because it may demean your efforts to dismiss opinions contrary to your own if it turns out you’ve just been mainlining Fox News from your lazy boy.

New York was destroyed last night and the cops were nowhere to be seen. Cuomo was on earlier about possibly relieving mayor De Blasio if he doesn’t start taking it seriously.
There has been a distinct lack of leadership from everyone involved here including Trump. Americans want action against these criminals not politicians enabling them with failure to condemn.
I live in Oakland mate, and we are under indefinite curfew every night. Drove through the downtown today it is absolutely wrecked. Do I need to have a home invasion or get shot to meet your street cred standards?
Very similar to a certain Sunday in derry back in the early 70s
What’s significant here is that almost all the cities that have been looted and wrecked are run by Democrats and have been for decades.
They’re entitled to batter the looters but they seem to prefer to batter the easier targets. Just as well they have it on camera or the likes of yourself would say reasonable force was used on Floyd.
Oakland and Sacramento aren’t in the best of states at the best of times
Really? Paratroopers shooting live rounds into the crowd?

Downtown Oakland is a lovely spot mate, not at the moment obviously but it’s a nicer downtown than San Fran for several years now. Parts of Sac are grand as well.
You mean all the rioting is in large urban centres with a high percentage of black people?
Edit: you could be on to something here.
So it was the cop in oaklands fault he got shot dead?

I remember being in Boston one time after dark and I stopped and asked a cop for directions. Fucker nearly took my head off, I was scared for my life.
They haven’t been battering anyone is the thing, although the looters need battering. Tear gas and pepper spray is not battering, are you a snowflake?
Grossly excessive force was used on Floyd and he was murdered, don’t put words in my mouth asshole.

Nope, large and small urban centers, and many of those rioting are white.
Try and keep up.
