US protests/riots 2020

[Brenden_E]

I've been browsing Reddit, specifically a subreddit dedicated to Minneapolis.

People are actually making excuses for the looting and rioting.

''With what happened in nearby Wisconsin, it is understandable that people are on edge''

They even blamed the police for arriving in riot gear to confront a mob that had just been rioting. Police came out to physically show the protest leaders the video but they also came with the support of anti-riot police, so the mob then blamed the police for escalating when things got out of hand again.

That dude shooting himself in the head though. It feels like Resident Evil vibes, peeps got infected by the virus

"You killed him"

Idiots

If the police didn't try and confront him and just left him alone he wouldn't have shot himself.

Many believe police shot him. They're blaming police.

And your point is?

The defund the police movement don't want the police there at all. They are happy with this guy going around killing people.

Cops should have prevented him from killing himself by killing him #policemustfall

Terrorists trying to murder police officers by barricading them inside then trying to set building on fire

As I've said numerous times, this is how silent voters and Middle America will give Trump another term.

Wait for the Democrats to lose every state...
The majority dont want this chaos

The guy with the gun is on the ground with the mob attacking him. He then opens fire. It's not what the BLM/Antifa mob wanted, but it's what they deserved.

Well done to the kid

They'll still win their Pacific coast and north-east states, but the real political battleground is in Middle America which includes numerous swing states, among them Minnesota and Wisconsin which have seen looting and arson recently.

The Dems are doing themselves no favours and are not being helped by the actions of BLM/protesters.

Guys, just to let you know calling a riot a riot is racist

Police Declare Portland Protests A Riot But This Definition Could Be Rooted In Racism

The city has seen nightly protests for about three months. And police have declared riots or unlawful assemblies about half the time. But some argue the meaning of riot is too vague to be useful.
