Didn't BR do a great job last time with peaceful protest?

Wasn't Baton Rouge lauded last time when the vast majority of the protest were really peaceful compared to almost every other city, and that was with the paid agitators from out of state that came down?


You had the one lone-wolf piece of trash that came down from KC specifically with murder suicide by cop on his mind.


So why is all this 'brace for looting' threads and sacking and burning of the city being predicted?

Am I missing something?

It was largely more peaceful and less destructive than Baltimore or Ferguson...until the BLM terrorist attacked people in July.

Because people want it to happen so they can come here and gnash their teeth/puff out their chest over it

This is different. Those protesters were hanging on to the idea that the officers could be charged. It's over now and no one is going to trial.

I had people being belligerent real close to my house. Tear gas and everything. They were trying to get onto the interstate. Idiots. If you shut down an interstate, ambulances cant get by and people will die.

Anybody that blocks an interstate should be run over.

I'm not concerned about BR residents. I'm concerned about the outside agitators like the Black Panthers bussing in.

It was peaceful until people were bussed in to protest. Who funds all of these people to be bussed in anyway?

Nothing is going to happen, people are being dramatic... But if you see the busses roll in then there might be some type of problems, but other than that.. Like I said, people are being dramatic. It makes for good news headlines.

Yes, arrested those that weren't peaceful and then the metro council gave them money.

FREE MONEY IN BR!

Yes, an election. Kip's no longer mayor, Sharon Weston-Broome is. One of her closest advisers is this woman:


Broome also wants the BR Chief of Police's head for being too "brutal" on last summer's protests. People are afraid that she'll follow the Baltimore/Portland/Berkeley example and tell the police to stand down and give the protesters "space to vent their frustrations". With Carl Dabadey out at State Police, we can't expect help from the boys in blue is BRPD is told to stand down.

We could be in for a hell of a ride.

The new mayor is a joke, and will allow things all in the greater good of blackness.

Thanks for voting BR.
