    A man now identified as a police officer in St. Paul was caught on video smashing store windows to provoke looting and arson as black youths tried to stop him:



    How many of the rioters, looters and arsonists are actually police officers?

    The hoops the left has to jump through to try and deflect from the obvious.

    People, mobs of rampaging leftists are looting and destroying cities all across the country. Get a grip on reality, deal with it, and stop with the dumb and fake distractions.

    People are incredibly gullible, yes.

    The question is whether there are more leftists provoking violence, or cops.

    The latter seems far more likely than the former.

    The obvious?

    That these are the Lockdown Riots, and have nothing to do with the left?

    Mobs of rampaging leftists!

    :roflol:

    Is the cop in the OP a leftist?

    :roflol:

    Conservatives are trying to use riots - riots that could be properly blamed on Democrats who insisted on insane lockdowns - on imaginary leftists instead.

    The left likely doesn't care, but conservatives may need to get a grip on reality, deal with it, and stop with the dumb and fake distractions.

    You are divorced from reality.

    The outrage mobs are a beast of the left's making, and your monster is out of control. Stop the silly deflections and distractions, and deal with it.

    What percentage makes any sort of difference? Greater than zero, less than a hundred. The table's set. It was set by a media that has been groomed by the public to promote stories that generate outrage. Outrage grabs eyeballs. Eyeballs generate revenue. If it's the media's job to generate outrage, then outrage is what you get from both sides.

    And I don't mean media like CNN and Fox. I mean this. Right here. This conversation we're having right now. This thread does not appear to be intended to mend the divide between the two sides. It's an outrageous accusation meant to grab attention.

    Welp, it's time to cancel someone. We have a definite blurry video of an eyebrow that someone on Twitter is pretty sure is a police officer.

    Getoutcher pitch forks, boys!

    I’ll worry about police violence when the cops start throwing Molotov cocktails at peaceful protesters.

    It happened in NYC. Two leftist attorneys threw a Molotov cocktail in a cop car with four cops inside. Fortunately, it didn’t blow up. Now both attorneys will be going away for a long time.

    There have been several others thrown across the country.

    North Carolina for just one example. And the idiot managed to set himself on fire in the process.
    Rioting leftists- a danger to themselves and others.

    I get it. I hadn't heard it had happened which is why I asked. You don't have to keep giving more examples.

    Actually, the reach of the AntiFA operation is deeper than we realized, recent intel(on twitter) shows that they have friendly's in police headquarters, virtually across the nation. The US has never dealt with an insurgency of this magnitude before, not even the KKK had this much power, steathily and secretly.

    I'm not even worried about police violence. I'm worried about the authoritative power grab by the people who direct them.

    Somebody sure is.

    The "outrage mobs" are the inevitable result of Democrat & Republican corruption and refusal to lead. Stop the silly deflections and distractions, and deal with it.

    Given your definition of leftists limits the term to you and about 5 or 6 other people...

    It may seem outrageous, but it's simply making the painfully obvious point that cops are looting and fomenting in the same numbers as Antifa and imaginary leftists.

    If that flew over your head, stand up straighter so it doesn't next time.

    As far as mending, when did that become a standard for discourse here or anywhere else?

    If you're so easily outraged, & so challenged in grasping intent, maybe this isn't the thread for you.

    And to think you were responding to a thread about gullibility. It is always the problem I have with supremacists/nationalists/authoritarians. Their need to create myths, especially of pretended enemies to conquer.

    It's literally not my fault if you're not keeping up with the intel.

    Has been identified? By whom? Is he arrested? Fired?

    Sounds like fake news to me.
