it wasn’t george floyd’s protesters who started reacting violently; it was the cops.

the protest was peaceful until the cops showed up in riot gear, and started using water cannons, followed up by tear gas and rubber bullets. i got videos from friends who were there, of people screaming and running away from the cops shooting the water cannons, rubber bullets and throwing tear gas at them. they were even shooting at the protesters dragging people away to get medical attention.

speaking of medical attention, dispatch refused to provide any medical attention to the protesters. people literally had to drive their bleeding friends to the hospital because they refused to send ambulances.

cops are using non-lethal weapons in a lethal way. they shot rubber bullets into people’s heads and injured them. there’s dozens of photos of protesters with bleeding head wounds from the rubber bullets.

multiple people used police scanners and heard that there were undercover cops pretending to be violent protesters who were throwing rocks and whatnot at the police, with dozens of eyewitness accounts confirming that information.

the person who instigated all the chaos last night (it was a fire at an autozone) with the looting and burning buildings is highly suspected to be an undercover cop pretending to be a protester, because the video of him keeps getting taken down. protesters tried to stop him but couldn’t because he had a hammer and they were scared for their safety.

the cops jammed cell phone towers and cut live streams to interrupt broadcasts and to prevent people from seeing what was really going on and who actually started the violence.

the cops lied about protesters being armed and about throwing rocks and are literally trying to continue the violence happening and yet no one is holding them accountable for that.

and during all this, the cop that murdered george floyd still hasn’t been arrested. he has had more than ten complaints filed against him and was involved in three other civilian shootings in the past. and yet he’s still out free along with his three other buddies involved, probably sitting on his couch while all this chaos is happening.

news outlets have mainly been reporting on the burning buildings and looting instead of the people still peacefully protesting. mainly showing black people looting, and not the dozens of white people and others who looted places either. they also aren’t really showing everyone who’s cleaning up (especially all the black people cleaning up) or the protesters who have tried to stop the looting (especially the black people who’ve tried to prevent the looting). they’re painting a nasty narrative. so here’s a gofundme page for a black man who’s been trying to clean up with some helpers and give people water, food, etc during their cleanup.

cops are still using tear gas, rubber bullets, pepper balls, etc against peaceful protesters. i watched a facebook friend go live last night and they were peacefully protesting and still got hit with tear gas. so don’t let the media and cops fool you into thinking that they’re only using those means with the looters or people acting violently. if you’re a protester, you’re a target. so to anyone out there protesting, please be careful.

the governor called in and got the national guard involved with all the rioting and protests, which are starting to move away from minneapolis into the surrounding cities. he also held a press conference this morning, saying that he “recognizes our generations of pain and anguish, but order must be restored”. here’s an article about it.

cops arrested a reporter and his crew live on cnn. they ended up releasing them. but the fact that they’re arresting reporters for doing their jobs and who are really trying to show what’s going on, should concern you. the fact they were arrested before the man who murdered george floyd is disturbing. here’s an article about it.

if you don’t think the federal government or cops just want to resort to violence against the protesters, well, think again! last night, trump and the white house made this tweet (click view to see it once you get to the page) about the situation saying that military is on the governor’s side and they’ll resort to killing protesters for looting. here’s an article about it.

and again, while all this is going on, the cops involved still haven’t been arrested for murdering george floyd, despite some of them having a prior history of doing not so stellar things during their careers as cops. in fact, the man that killed him (derek chauvin) has cops protecting him at his house. they’re protecting a murderer to protect their own, and have made their stances clear on the matter.
