You're literally posting a tweet from a MSM reporter. Good grief, Emjay. :rolleyes:

But this encapsulates the issue perfectly. NYPD letting these looters do their thing while attacking unarmed protesters.
Same as happened in LA.

LAPD focused on peaceful protesters while ignoring looting, business owners say

Despite efforts by the mayor and police chief to strike the right tone in their response to the protests over the death of George Floyd, many in Los Angeles say they missed the mark.

Yes, Twitter is main stream media.

Edit:

Sorry, let me elaborate.

It does kinda epitomize it though. Lazy thought processes. They did not realize there is more than one side and this was the wrong side. They thought they be safe. "First they came ...". Much like the journalists.

I was watching an Aussie newscaster today in the thick of it, a tad more balanced. She was a wee petite blondie. A big black dude asserted himself to the bodyguard role for the film crew. Some other people of all colours doing their peaceful protest thing. Cops there trying to do there thing. All good folk. Then a certain crowd moves in, not the same caliber. Even the reporter comments on the new group, the old group leaving.
 
Quite difficult to watch, but a good highlights package to end the day.

@buka001 won't spot a single looter in here of course.

Hey lefties, the key swing voters in the suburbs are heavily favouring 'law and order'.

Overplayed your hand, you're a bunch of destructive MFs!

You miss the other part of that poll, Chris? Must be coincidence you left this out, eh?

Voters Trust Biden Much More Than They Trust Trump to Address Police Reform, Racial Inequalities

As America grapples with racial inequalities and discriminatory police tactics amid the nationwide protests over the death of George Floyd, a black man, while in custody of a white Minneapolis police officer, the circumstances have placed President Donald Trump on fraught political turf.
morningconsult.com
The former vice president leads Trump by a similar spread — 44 percent to 32 percent — on the broad issue of police reform among voters overall and key constituencies, and by 11 points, 44 percent to 33 percent, on whom voters trust the most to handle the current protests.

'Domestic terrorist actors’ could exploit Floyd protests, DHS memo warns

The memo cites “previous incidents of domestic terrorists exploiting First Amendment-protected events” as one reason for DHS’ concern of additional targeted violence.
www.politico.com www.politico.com
It also reveals, citing the FBI, that on May 27, two days after Floyd’s death, “a white supremacist extremist Telegram channel incited followers to engage in violence and start the ‘boogaloo ’— a term used by some violent extremists to refer to the start of a second Civil War — by shooting in a crowd.” One Telegram message encouraged potential shooters to “frame the crowd around you” for the violence, the document said.

Where have I ever said it's only white supremacists involved? That's obviously untrue.

Or are you arguing with strawmen again?

Trump has spoken out public ally a few times. He has prepared the Military. More than the Democrats running those States.

You are just so Trump deluded you have lost all common sense.

Which prominent leaders in these communities has he visited?
 
Pegasus said:
Yep.
He even quotes Trumps speech in this very thread. Just hours ago. Now he claims he was quiet and said nothing.

Which leaders of the various communities has he visited and spoken with?

Calling for domination is not speaking to protestors.
