Simmer down.


Apparently someone shooting -at- the protest makes the protest itself not peaceful somehow. Huh.


Oh of course sorry I didn’t realize gunfire was a normal or peaceful thing. Whoops!

No, you just said that the protest itself was not peaceful, when the evidence is that the protest was and someone shot at them. Which does not track in terms of logic.

Well the NBC source you provided was useless. It did not at all back up your strong implication that protesters shot 3 people.

You guys are honestly retarded, I never once said the protestors started this.

This isn’t a normal situation. Both sides are engaging in violence, I merely was trying to say this entire situation isn’t normal.

But good ahead and keep making assumptions. It’s very white of you all.

Which two sides? Because your wording singled out the protests. Which is the other side, mm?

There are vigilantes with perhaps racist intentions defending shops

Then you have cops

And then you have a small subset of violent protesters

All involved in the same conflict

Hence my post saying this situation isn’t peaceful

It won't stop. The police are incentivized and encouraged to be violent, and are often shielded from any and all consequences of their violence.

Google exists and this just happened

Mannixa Prime, Vassenor and Nobel Hobos 2: A three page threadjack over posting a link, or not, to a breaking news story is particularly childish from all concerned. Do not expect other people to Google and find the exact same story you're referring to when you talk about breaking news, and in a similar vein do not simply decry a lack of a source on breaking news when it is easily searchable and confirmable. 'Do your own research' applies to everybody.
