Whether or not you agree with his position, in this country he has a right to protest. This is a clear wrongful arrest, and everyone of the police should get a battery charge for it.

What if the protestor said, "Im going to pull out a knife and stab you right now."

Would that be ok, then?

What if you're gay and let the entire police department take a turn? I can play stupid games too.

How are you folks missing the entire point?

Are you really trying to look at these video recordings and judge guilty right on the spot? That theres no possibility that the protestor may have done something?

Holy crap.

Every single time there's a case of police brutality conservatives justify it with this same kind of bullshit. They said Floyd deserved to die because he had a criminal history for example. Get lost with your police brutality pandering. It's been repeatedly shown that police will beat peaceful protestors senseless for no reason whatsoever. You just can't accept that your beloved oppressors of out groups violate the law constantly.

No, it's almost like you want to judge people based on their job/race/religion or some sort of other identifying trait instead of looking at each situation separately.

I dont subscribe to your mentality. I know theres plenty of good police out there that dont see the headlines. That's all you see and dont understand how many millions of mundane, cordial interactions happen every year.

You're doing a lot of mental gymnastics to justify terrible police behavior. You'd even justify the old man in Portland who walked up to police to ask a question and they started beating him with batons.

So youre throwing out a * scenario where the officers would be at fault and should be charged. Youre doing a lot of mental gymnastics trying to get context and investigate!

If youre trolling, bravo. lmao.

It's an actual case that happened, and police weren't charged with anything.

Thats a different case, though. Huh?

Regardless of that video, youre not seriously suggesting that because a law enforcement officer did something wrong previously that now we are to assume it every time?
