Funny how the past 2 months pretty much half of America has been prohibited by law enforcement from "doing their jobs" and they were called "selfish" for complaining about it.

So does this mean this board is back to telling everyone to follow police instructions again? Because for the last few months there were no shortage of people telling others to resist stay at home orders by the police


That hypocrisy you are pointing out goes both ways...except for the fact that those on this board are only mocking CNN for that very fact. They don't really believe journalists should be arrested or that police can decide that peaceful protesters must leave.

Did you actually watch the video of the arrest? They identified themselves, repeatedly told the State Patrol "tell us where you want us to go, we'll get out of your way, just tell us where you want us", they were 100% cooperating when the reporter was placed under arrest.

You still want to defend that?

Democrat governor, mayor and police chief. Nah. What would make you say that?



...all coordinating with CNN, the Democratic Party's propaganda apparatus. Nothing to see her. Move along!

Exactly.

You can oppose the lawlessness that led to CNN’s headquarters getting trashed while still relishing the bitter irony of CNN consistently defending and excusing such hooliganism over the years.

Some posters on this board need to have their irony meter checked.
