Look, they rioted because they wanted the cop arrested. He was arrested and then they rioted because they wanted tougher charges and all four cops arrested. Tougher charges came and all four arrested. Nothing stopped.
Oh, the SCOTUS ruled that states can close churches to protect the populous. I guess that means peaceful protestors can be arrested too.
I was going to write in the Constitutionalist candidate this November but now I'm voting for Trump...This is BS.
Don't do that, that would be most unfortunate. You'd vote for a destructive option in face of destruction.
I am pretty critical about some forms of the protest too, but I don't think you can safely assume it was just about what these specific cops should be charged with. There's quite obviously a more systemic issue, that makes this one killing a sad deja vu.
