the cops have riot gear on.

if you're afraid of an old dude with obvious scoliosis when youre donning full riot gear, you shouldnt be a cop. I'm sorry.

Should have brought his walker with the tennis balls on it to the protest.

I do have an issue protesting police violence by getting into the police’s face and egging them on. If you don’t want an issue with police, keep your distance.


wait...the old guy was "egging" the cops on?

what video are y'all watching?

Not by the cops. A couple of guys in fatigues(guessing National Guard) tended to him after the cops walked on by him to arrest another peaceful protester.

An imaginary one to justify the taste of boot.

There were no other protestors near the police, and the cop had time to assess the situation.

I'm really starting not to care anymore. They all know what's happening they all bitched at every one to wear masks and stay home. But now they want to bitch for getting roughed up at a riot over a criminal during a global pandemic.

frick em.

or twitter people seem to think he may have had a fake blood bag that was lined to his earhole.

Looked to me like he was trying to explain where he found the helmet he was returning and the cop that tried to help(or continue beating) wasn't the same one that shoved him.

Lots of "small government conservatives" seem to be totally cool with armed actors of the state battering a law-abiding citizen, leaving him bleeding and then saying he "tripped". Weird times!

I didn't approve of what the cops did at all (but you just filled that part in yourself, per usual).

All I said was people think they can put themselves in any situation these days with an expectation of no negative outcomes. It's not based in reality.

You seem to be filling in a lot of blanks yourself, pal. The guy walked up to the cops with one of their helmets in one hand and his phone in the other and was shoved to the ground and left bleeding and they tried to cover their asses with a lie. Not sure why you're focusing so heavily in on some vague idea of expectations and reality.
