Keep in mind that some people like to slip clips like this that were actually from years ago or not even in the USA.

The police car looks like it’s vintage 90’s to me

Buffalo appears to have their spending under control. :-)

Several major police departments horde Crown Victorias since they are the last police car made that was body on frame rails. Meaning even if you trashed the car so badly it warped the frame you could put it on a jig and resquare the frame, put on new panels where needed, and send that car right back out. Whatever PD you see running Crown Vics still is a PD that is run well fiscally at least on the motorpool front.

Screw that, we have a need for speed here in CO! All new cop cars here are probably $55k and up.

Author a little unsympathetic on the base issue, but he asks some good questions:

"...This is all part of the media’s narrative, you see. The protests function as a partisan propaganda operation to impugn Republicans as racists, to make the damaging accusation implicitly, without the accusers being forced to defend such a claim in open debate. If the claim were ever made explicit — if the protest leaders ever dared to assert that Republicans were to blame for George Floyd’s death — the rebuttal would be as simple as one word: “How?” As previously explained, Minneapolis is a bastion of liberalism, and the site where Floyd was arrested (on suspicion of trying to pass a counterfeit $20 bill) is in Minnesota’s Fifth Congressional District, whose current representative is Ilhan Omar, arguably the most far-left Democrat in Congress. Republicans are quite scarce in that vicinity, so how could the GOP possibly be blamed for the unfortunate death of Georgia Floyd?

Logic means nothing when Democrats start playing the race card, of course, and the party’s publicists in the media establishment went into 24/7 coverage mode as soon as video of Floyd’s arrest hit the internet. Having decided to whip up a mob fury, the Democrats and their media henchmen simply did not care about the consequences of their irrational race-war propaganda...."

Black politicians are saying people should vote for change. That means throwing out all the Democrats running the cities.

This should be its own thread alongside self defense tactics

That was happening in Philadelphia as well. You’d see a guy running down an alley with loot, and see another guy jump him, and take the loot, while others swarmed around.

Other than some social media and a few news clips, I haven't watched any protest stuff the last few nights. Rather ignore the idiots in the large cities and enjoy the quiet nights where I live. That being said, they had Fox News on TV at lunch in place we were eating and had live shots of NYC and LA. Made me wonder:

Do these people not work?

What is the point of walking around the streets holding a cardboard sign like a fool?

also was a little surprised at how many white folks were protesting

Of course they don’t work. We just put a shite ton of them on a bloated unemployment check.

Most of the cities in question are currently still locked down, and even more are out of work, so no...no jobs.

This is the flagship Macy’s store featured in Miracle on 34th St. Not a miracle anymore.

It was also vandalized and fires were started on the inside.
