OH NO! Cops cancelled and now LIVE PD! ***? I'm sorry but why? I won't have anything to watch but fake news ! What a society we have become? Ban the Confederate Flag, knock down statues, what's done hundreds of years ago didn't affect you. If reality is too much for you, go get your participation trophy! What about heritage and history?

Did you see the Christopher Columbus statue get toppled at the Capitol in St. Paul. Really F...uped situation. They (law enforcement) knew it was going to happen. And what time it was planned for. News anchor asked the police commissioner about it a half hour before it was supposed to happen. He said they were aware of it, and would have state troopers there. But these dumb *** officials let it happen. I am SO PISSED OFF about that. What in the world is the thinking to let it happen. Don't think they even arrested anyone for it (not completely sure though). Supposedly a trooper was there to explain there is a LEGAL way to bring up removing the statue. They even could have covered it while the process was happening, to give the protesters a sense of things going the way they wanted. But to let them topple it and damage it, IS SO WRONG. Sends the message they can do what ever they want. What a **** show.
Like the first night of curfew. Didn't move into the area around the 5th precinct for 48 minutes after the curfew time. Then these BOZO'S come from upwind launching tear gas. It just blew back at the officers and guardsmen. Didn't even get on the protesters. If they'd of come from the downwind side, and let the gas engulf the protesters, they'd of been headed home to shower and change clothes. But since no one got gassed, they just re-grouped several blocks away. Then stand off against them. No wonder we don't win wars anymore, with tactical planning like that. How hard is it to figure out which way the wind is blowing. Lick your finger stick it up in the air, what ever side feels cold the wind is coming from. Really goes to show the rest of us that civil disobedience is acceptable. Pretty sad as far as I'm concerned.
Whats their next demand going to be? Cash payments for their 400 years of discrimination?
The media with all their coverage of the funerals for George, and not so much as a single word about David Dorn. The retired police captain from St. Louis, killed by looters during the riots. Or the other officers killed during this bull****. Where's the justice in that? Sure makes a guy want to go POSTAL.

I hear you and I agree ! I lived thru the riots in Chicago in 1968. Mayor Daley said shoot to kill. My Grandma had a candy store about 5 blocks from the fires my Uncle stood armed guard. We pussy foot around and let everyone do what they want. Where was the water cannons ? Wash em down into the gutters. Last night watching Hannity they had live videos of the dumb asses in Virginia taking down statues. As I watched them I said they ought to give some room down below , no sooner I thought that, the statue comes down and critically injures one of the future Congressman or Senators . Now we're letting them have their own autonomous zones . When the s**t hits the fan don't call the cops!

Why cities are allowing left wing extremists to take over sections of their cities, camp out and protest endlessly is puzzling to me. Can anyone enlighten me how these take overs are constructive for the residents that live in these areas?? Sooner or later law and order will have to return. Just seems crazy to me!

Something is coming and it's not going to be "peaceful".

You don't deal with bully's with negotiation. Sorry, they don't play by your rules and don't want to understand anything you want to say. Only way law and order will be restored is with force. A portion of the population won't like that and won't get it. It's a good thing that same group wasn't part of forming this country.

This is a fair question: Have we reached the ultimate stage of absurdity where some people are held responsible for things that happened before they were born while other people are not held responsible for what they themselves are doing today?

Imo state or city government has to go in identity platforms of these extremists ask them what specifically they want? Then react to their demands with logic. Also communicate you can’t take what you don’t own state the laws that are being broken. Then give a reasonable schedule to vacate the precinct with exactly what will happen when law and order clears the area. If ANTIFA it will not be a peaceful end these people are extremely violent. Always worth talking before anyone gets hurt imo.

EXACTLY!!!!

the world has gone crazy

cracked me up this week when walmart was accused of being racist for locking up "beauty products" used by a certain segment of the population. Its just good buisness practice to take steps to keep products from walking off the shelves on their own and sneaking past the cash register ... probably those crazy amish people doing it to make others look bad

They are still looting stores in Chicago, now over two weeks, but now, they choose not to put it on the news? CRAZY how the media works this.

You guys need to quit watching the news. I didn't know anything about statues coming down until I read this post.

In my world, the angriest people I come across are customers who have talk/opinion radio blaring in their trucks and shops all day long. It cant be healthy listening to someone telling you 24/7 what they think you should be angry about.
