DC City Council passed regulations requiring the police to deescalate with protesters after the BLM riots.


Would be more accurate to say "after the police riots" because police started them.

Because they are protecting a traitor and threat to democracy. Walking off the job would be the right thing to do.

Yeah they are. Someone needs to get the guard in there. Just pointing out the apparent double standard in Trump clearing protestors with tear gas for a photo op versus the apparent no-show from the Guard at the moment.

From the pages of "How to make a bad situation worse..."
"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.
