I'll do that as soon as you name every one of the people that the "illegal" officers allegedly beat. Deal?
The_Piper wrote:Nobody working for the unidentified illegal police force was blinded by lasers.
The article says otherwise and I'm sure the court system is going to find things in your favor regarding the "illegality" of these feds, right.
I ask again: what do you think those lasers were for?
The_Piper wrote:Peaceful protestors were tear-gassed.
"Peaceful" "protesters" ripping down federal courthouse fencing, starting fires, shining lasers in the eyes of the feds, shooting fireworks at cops and aforementioned courthouse etc.

That really is unfortunate but cops have still been doing pretty much the bare minimum in crowd control, which is why there have been violent riots in Portland every night for well over two months now.

And I have videos of violent rioting too but you haven't looked at any of them.
Since we've already crossed the Godwin's law threshold in this thread, I have to say you remind me of Holocaust deniers I've interacted with. I lay out massive heaps of evidence for them, up to and including Heinrich Himmler admitting to "die Ausrottung des jüdisches Volkes" on audio and they ignore 100% of it, like you've been doing here.
In some sense it's actually worse because the Holocaust happened a long time ago and the primary audio and/or visual evidence of what happened is far more limited than what we have now with the Internet and the ubiquity of cell phones that can record video. You are living in thorough denial about things that were documented very well mere months or weeks ago in this fashion.

George Floyd autopsy shows no signs of traumatic asphyxia or strangulation, attributes death to 'being restrained, his underlying health conditions, and any potential intoxicants in his system'So now we need to beatify this man who was a violent career criminal who once pointed a gun at a pregnant woman's stomach by putting up renditions of him with literal fucking halos as if he is to be fast-tracked to sainthood. That's what people are doing for this guy who didn't even die of asphyxia, rather because he had underlying health issues and was high as a kite, speedballing on extremely high doses of meth and fentanyl. Perhaps getting arrested was the straw that broke the camel's back but there was no evidence of asphyxia.

Yes and that is why people throughout this country now
MUST loot Gucci and Louis Vuitton stores, besiege a federal courthouse, reduce minority-owned small businesses to ash etc., all for
GREAT RACIAL JUSTICE. And as we all know, rioting totally doesn't result in conservative backlashes in the polls!

What was that little comment about burning crosses about then? You really think I was born yesterday don't you?

All I'm doing is posting primary evidence direct from on the ground in Portland.
