i actually posted 2 videos and I've just been seeing loads of videos like this on my timeline so could probably find more.

Also, I was never implying that it's only white people just wanted to get rid of the notion that its mostly black people doing this.

No-one was saying any race involved was entirely innocent or entirely guilty.

I agree it's pretty bad to do it even with a "reason", but maybe that's what some of the white people involved think they're doing :shrug: it'd be pretty barmy to say the whites doing so are only doing it to make the rioters look bad :laugh: just as likely they're AntiFa types.

A*riot is the language of the unheard and what is it America has failed to heard?

A quote that Martin Luther King made which is every bit as relevant today

Kazanne 31-05-2020 09:58 AM

Its all a bloody big mess, the officer has been arrested and is being charged , what else can be done ? I don't think all the rioting will help at all,it will probably make things worse, and I really don't see why London has to join in, everywhere is so peaceful and quiet at the minute and now we have this to look forward too and I doubt the social distancing will be a thing then, :shrug: I would hope they will keep it peaceful without destroying things but I wont hold my breath,Its abhorrent what happened to that man but hurting other people will not help imo.

Just as likely they’re far right activists doing it to make the black protesters look bad

1 arrest isnt justice for the thousands who cops murdered and it wont stop them murdering again

Liam- 31-05-2020 09:59 AM

All four officers need to be charged and with a charge that fits the crime, not some bs lower charge because they’re cops and got friends in the force, that would help, people want justice

Denver 31-05-2020 10:00 AM

The Americans also moaning about the rioting and looting,you built you country on violence, riots, looting, theft and Racism and installed it into all generations

I wouldn't mind seeing this version of the socially aware Denver in UK politics. You supported the boastful racist in our last election.

lol no-one alive was involved in anything to do with the formation of their country. A majority of them also have nothing to do with murderers in the police force. You don't inherit the sins of the father.

Far right folks are often too dumb to do such things. Sure they're violent thugs, but not chess players lol. AntiFa types always resort to violence too, and protesting against murderers in the police is right up their alley.

If you think this start's and ends with George Floyd then you haven't been paying attention.

armand.kay 31-05-2020 10:08 AM

George isn't even the first high profile police killing this year...

Liam- 31-05-2020 10:13 AM

More of this please


armand.kay 31-05-2020 10:15 AM

Literally a few weeks ago two white men were charged with the murder of an innocent black man (Ahmaud Arbery) in a racially motivated cold blooded attack when he was on a walk. They killed him in February and only in the first week of May were they charged.

I agree it’s extremely ignorant to think “well the police officer has been charged,time to call it off now,job is done! what else can be done !” this is problem that is still HERE.

and like a month or two ago cops broke into 26-year-old EMT Breonna Taylor's home looking for a man THEY ALREADY HAD IN CUSTODY and murdered her. Those officers still haven't been charged.

Arresting Georges Murderers and charging them with 3rd degree is not enough.

especially when said officer is conventionally on suicide watch

Just saw a glimpse of last night’s riots in the states .. aside from the guy with the bow and arrow .. and the guy wielding a huge sword ... both getting crushed by the out of control mobs - the most distressing thing to me was seeing a mob fighting a long line of police .. who threw exploding tear gas bombs to disperse the crowd .... then I noticed a frantic dog going absolutely crazy right in the middle of everything :(

the problem is that with 1000's of people out on the streets intent on causing trouble, you can take your phone out and capture footage to support whatever agenda you fancy and then post it on twitter. It's nonsense
