Plz stop. They have a dictator now who has decreed that everyone that comes in should be searched for weapons at gun point if need be, and people have been threatened with baseball bats for alleged stealing. So much for de-escalation tactics :roll:

Radicals do not equal most people out there, yet radicalization increasingly dictates you take one side over the other.

Raz showed up for a few days and made a fool out of himself. Some people talked to him the other day, and he left. Classic de-escalation right there. A good conversation about how he isn't helping the movement, and he leaves in his Tesla. That's what de-escalation is. It turns out even untrained people are better at it than the cops.

At this point you are telling someone who is literally a few blocks away from the zone right now about how it is. It could be less rainy.

Really you get all your news from Hannity it is no surprise you think this way.

Anyway back on topic, good protests are going on.

Hey bridge do you mind starting a thread about Chad for these people? I kind of hate this interface on my phone, and it's clear they want to discuss it badly.

And leftists get too hung up on words like "superpredator" which having met some actual Gen X gang members who are now reformed, can be white too, you know!

The issue here isn't about the good apples, as you say. It's the hate mob coming down on police. Hate, hate, hate, nonstop seething hate. And that simply makes us versus them more ingrained and harder to fight. Mr. Witwer shouldn't be compelled to bow to pressure in defending his police friend, as I trust his word that he is honorable, and you got users like Fuzzy Necromancer still showing such disbelief toward that. More of the same "collective war criminals" rhetoric. How do you deal with a society that is being increasingly radicalized? Maybe we should stop in thinking the other side are traitors out to destroy the US. That would be a start.

They hate police because it's trendy now. There's always a legitimate reason to get upset about some new thing the human race has done.

Right. Nothing happened that made them mad. Brilliant speculation Chomsky.

They hate police because they or their friends were poisoned or bludgeoned or arrested by police for protesting police brutality. It's something you can see. They got video and everything.
