Feel free to hop off your cross, and stop virtue signaling any time. So, since I’m actually asking questions about what led up to this reporter’s arrest, that means I respect the constitution less than you? Really? You know riots are chaotic events right, they’re fast and fluid, and the situation can change in a matter of seconds. Humans aren’t robots that are programmed to deal with situations like this. If you have ever been in a situation that was life or death based on snap judgment, maybe you wouldn’t be overreacting. The fact remains that you have no earthly clue about what led up to this reporter being detained, nor do you know the motives of those who detained that reporter. So how about knocking off the whole “you don’t respect the right of the press, since you’re not casting black & white stones.” Next, you state that you don’t entirely trust police , or the military, but you support them. I think that’s actually a pretty smart position to take. Why not apply the same standard to the media? I mean I’ve witnessed a fully partisan media, as well as a media that’s acted as a mouth piece for the government, why not be critical of what they have to say as well?
CNN is not the press. It is a propaganda outfit that promulgates fake news and pressures social media to ban the alternative press (the actual free press). It would be a fair assessment to label them as a hostile foreign agent at this point.
No, no conditions. I'm all for protecting free speech. CNN, however, is not. They've been caught numerous times lying, doctoring audio (the Zimmerman call), editing video. They're not a free speech organization, they're a propaganda organization. They have no interest in free speech. Their only interest is what kind of slant they can put on a story. Just like VOX or TYT.
No, it's not "case closed". They are clearly news reporters and the police knew this and they still lied in their statement and the world can clearly see this lie. You love the police and they can do no wrong, we get it.
I said rightwingers defending the reporter because of the constitution. So you're going to defend his right as part of the free press or not....
Yawn, silly strawman aside, they were detained and released. Nobody was thrown in jail, or physically harmed. Can you be anymore dramatic?
You may get a Twitter removal for even suggesting that. How dare someone question a Democrat city run by Leftist Radical Democrat Mayor who had but this to add.Keep in mind, all you deserving precious Rioters.Make sure and social distance and wear your masks. What about the Mask of Hypocrisy.Exposed yet again by Democrats and their ilk.
You mean people that believe in enforcing the law, or follows the direction of their superiors? Directions that include arresting anyone that is in the area of the protests. Do you include the female teachers that sleep with their underage male students? Maybe you should have said Catholic Priests as your example. I think that would be a better example. Due to the fact that the majority of teachers are not molesting their students, but it does look like a larger percentage of priests are involved in these type of activities. Cops in the conservative South are famous for killing blacks. Are you really that ignorant of the history?[/QUOTE]
Nothing about the optics here are going to be favorable at all to the police. What were they thinking? the crew was happy to move back to wherever and they decide to go full gestapo instead. Whoever approved this should lose they're badge.
Here's one of the Martians who was marched off because he was told to move and didn't. The non-Martian was allowed to stay where he was because he was not in the way and didn't ignore police. Democrats never have a shortage of excuses to feel aggrieved. Democrats who also happen to be minorities feign grievances on steroids because it's simply a way to use race, ethnicity or other excuse to attract attention. Once they have the attention they seek, they burn their own neighborhoods. Ferguson & Baltimore are other examples. One thing you won't find in Minneapolis, Ferguson or Baltimore are Republicans. I guess after fighting a war to take away Democrats' slaves, Republicans tend to stay away from Democrat hell holes.
As universally unionized members, aren't these the same folks who have their incomes extorted to pay for the campaign funds of the city leaders and democratic party their union contributes to?
its you with thier head in the sand ignoring the fact this happened in a democrat ran city by a democrat hired cop but you insist its republicans that are the racist that are the fascist
I'll await the rest of the story. I note he says they were just standing on the corner but the events took place in the middle of the street.
I'm no fan of CNN, but when we start arresting reporters for reporting events is when our society is truly on the brink of totalitarianism.
So, Freddy Grey was not killed in Baltimore? Eric Garner was not killed in Detroit ? Sam Dubose was not killed in Cincinnati? Alton Sterling was not killed in Baton Rouge, LA? Jamar Clark was not killed in Minneapolis, Minn? Jeremy McDole wasn't killed in Wilmington, Del? Tamir Rice was not killed in Cleveland, OH? Akai Gurley was not killed in New York City? Over half of the police related shooting included in this article were in cities that had Democrat Mayors. https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/list-police-related-deaths-usa-1.4438618 So, your claim of "conservative South are famous for killing blacks" is completely unsupportable.
They were in an area they were not supposed to be. Knowing CNN, they did it intentionally to get arrested so they could once again scream racist remarks at the police and cause discord. Once they were identified as reporters, they were released. Being CNN, it must have been a pretty hard sell to actually claim they were reporters. lol
