Pretty fucking vile

So before this is taken in a certain direction. They were given the command to mask up. When you put the mask on, youkneel on one knee and put your mask on. So it wasnt faking to kneel. It was confusion

fuckers dont give a fuck stop trusting them

Yeah, it was the protesters who jumped the gun this time.

i also wondered if it was actually just that a couple cops were kneeling, like... normal kneeling, not protest kneeling, and then the crowd moves up, the cops don't know what for, and pop off gas because they think they're gonna get bumrushed

i've been to two protests so far and hear "lots of take a knee"

do not do this

if they do, it's just propaganda for them, photo op bullshit

they do not give a shit about the reason for these protests that's why they are brutalizing people all across the country

Well no, you see them mask up. They were planning on deploying tear gas and the protestors thought they were taking a knee as a part of the movement

The police are there to re-establish order in the city. That means dispersing crowds. You can choose to leave, which is your safest option but sadly ends your protest; fight back, which is the most dangerous option but at least you are still actively involved; or you can stand there with your phone out recording because you have no training and understanding of crowd control tactics and dont realize youre about to get tear-gassed to the face.

A lot of people have been choosing option three.

Dont be simple.

I support everyones right to do what they feel is best. In fact, there are a few (Im guessing its just a few) of us here on CE who have always been pro-Second Amendment. If you want to fight the power, then good luck with that. Its worked several times in history around the world, though not every time. Just be aware that law enforcement, Guardsmen and their supporters arent going to stand around and let you do whatever you want. For better or worse, the choice is everyones to individually make.

They taught us to kneel when putting masks on. idk why >_>

---

Twitter morons are still citing the Geneva convention, as if this is a war and the police are part of the military and that the rioters are combatants.

What a bunch of clowns.

Same idiots are also spewing off random non-sense that the military is probably using hollow-point ammunition and how that too is a violation of the Geneva convention. Even though that's actually the Hague convention, and on top of the US not signing on to that particular page, the treaty specifically states "expanding ammunition specifically designed to increase suffering" to which hollow points are designed to kill, and boat tails are designed to fly better.

Fact of the matter, the cops action of kneeling relaxed that crowd. They were no longer standoffish. People were cheering and it sounded like many people were getting ready to take a knee themselves in solidarity. The situation was on its way to being deescalated....then the cops immediately escalated it again. So protocol or not, how about just exercise a little thought and common sense and dont shoot the tear gas when you dont need to.

To draw in peaceful protestors so you can get a better shot off with your tear gas.

This.

Whether they kneeled on purpose or not is irrelevant, tear gas didn't need to be fired at all.
