Thanks man. It looked like one of the officers was going into the busted window. So I wonder what that was all about. One of the comments on the video said it wasn't the full video and that they were doing it so "Looter" wouldn't hurt themselves. Curious as to why the video was only three seconds long, and why they cut filming as soon as the officer was going into the store.

Thanks bro, its gives me the media could not be played bullshit. I think I can find it elsewhere though since you gave me a link.

Seattle is a fucked up place now. It used to be a good spot though that I loved to visit.

Both of those tweets look to me like the cops are clearing off already broken glass instead of leaving the spiky spikes sticking out

The first one, it seems that way. But the Seattle one, it looks like they are hitting glass not yet broken. But I also got pretty bad eye sight :lol

It was hard to see, that one looked worse for sure. I 100% believe cops are doing shady stuff to try and curb protests that shouldn't be defended regardless if you agree with the protests, but I'm kinda with Swamps in that I've just heard people mention it without seeing a whole lot of substance there.

I saw a few more things. I just was able to find that one easily again as I sent it to someone. Hopefully I run across a few more. I saw one that was just pictures so it's not much to it cause you can't prove much by pictures, that said they was staging a dumpster fire. Really wish they did it as video and not just pictures because it's hard to believe unless I see them doing it in motion.

I don't mind protests. Its the riots that piss me off. Some (not talking about anyone on this site) can't seem to understand the difference. Most of the rioters are pencil neck white kids, who don't give a damn about the cause and only want to act out. The sad thing is that people are getting killed during this shit, and everyone is still posting (again not on here) the same old crap.

What is said was when some rioters were interviewed and asked, "How do you think George Floyd would feel about this"? Response was "Who"? Speaks volumes,

It's two separate problems that most people (and the media especially conflate into one). Floyd's death was absolutely terrible and deserved to have protests come about from it (now during 'Rona time there's an extra debate there but I digress from that for now), rioters are scum regardless and are most definitely not the same group that are protesting peacefully during the day. I swear some people seem to think protesters turn into werewolves and just start lighting shit on fire bc the moon comes out when it's pretty clearly different groups of people that don't give a fuck about Floyd causing most of the problems.

I'm sure there's some overlap between protesters and rioters, it would be ignorant to not think that, but I do believe it's pretty small.

So does anyone else find it weird that George Floyd did porn? Google if you don’t believe...videos don’t lie......Just weird how, of all people in the world, it’s a dude that acted in a porn video.

A silver lining that's once again separate from the riots in my mind from all of this is that I think the cops were handled better than any instance of something like this happening in American history. Fired pretty quick, instantly condemned by other cops and Trump (don't really give a fuck if they're sincere or covering their asses, words still have some meaning), and then arrested. Obviously there's still a whole legal process to go, but this is significant change that I've been wanting to see for a good while.

Nah not really, lots of dudes act in porn :draper2 Sounds like when a chick is raped and people are like "but isn't it weird she had lingerie pictures online" to me.

The second part of your post is definitely not the direction I was going in at all. Literally wasn’t even a thought in my mind, it just seems like a small world when you find out someone has porn videos in their past.

Fair enough, could see some news stations running with it to show he "wasn't as good of a guy as we thought" but only the trashiest ones that most people don't rate anyway.
