    1. @Just another day in the salt mine my bad. I didn’t know. So, it’s cognitive dissonance, not naivete.

    1. Nah, these are examples of behaviour by the same police force that is on your streets every day. This culture didn’t appear overnight due to the Tangerine Tyrant.

    2. This is what’s known as a “police riot”. The Indianapolis video starts with that pig groping the black woman.

    1. That,s right.And its seems it,s going to stay that way sadly. Because no one wants to apply change to sick behavior. Its got to do with racism.

    2. Seriously would not want to live in the US right now.. You guys have serious problems. That was crazy.. No wonder things escalates.

    3. @Ben
      What’s sad is that some fake patriotic Americans take the word of ex-KGB leader Putin over the word of multiple US intel. agencies. Sad that FAKE AMERICANS like Jenna Abrams are still blathering sputnik propaganda. The aholes.

  1. The NYPD kidnapped the mayor’s daughter. Arrested her, held her in jail, and then broadcast her address to the public.
    The mayor may be under duress.

  2. Some of these officers look like they are juiced up on steroids just itching to pound some skulls. That poor elderly man in Buffalo was just sickening to watch.

    1. @Eagle Eyes lol maybe he should have followed the police orders and then he wouldn’t have got his noggin cracked
      If you’re going to confront the cops during a riot then you should prepare for the worst

    2. The poor elderly man confronting a police line looking for trouble ? How about not jumping to conclusions.

    3. @Adam L Haters gonna hate. If you hate the police, then if you are victim of a crime , please call Antifa or CNN.

  3. Cops are still cops. It’s the quality of many of the people attracted to the profession.

    1. bdjohnston1 Thank God they do, otherwise we would not have the proof of the Police Brutality causing death. Please let Good come from this failure in the law,
      Regarding racism, and Rights of the people, not just the U.S. but everywhere.

  4. “If we define an American fascist as one who in case of conflict puts money and power ahead of human beings, then there are undoubtedly several million fascists in the United States.”
    –Henry A. Wallace

    1. Brandon Bodwell – Did you mean “quote”?
      Yeah, I understood it was a quote. I can still disagree with it. If we define “good people” as cops who deliberately abuse their power than I guess the cops who killed Floyd are good people.

  5. “The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerated the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than the democratic state itself. That in its essence is fascism: ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or any controlling private power.” 
    ― Franklin D. Roosevelt

    “The biggest mistake of a democratic country is to underestimate the power of a democratically elected pro-fascist leader because it is always easier to destroy a castle from within!”
    ― Mehmet Murat ildan

    1. Nah…. I Don’t Think so we’ll Find a Better Fit for NYC of Course Background Check up the @$% to Make sure He or She is Good for Us !

  6. Police unions are blackmailing politicians across the country, its standard operating procedure

  7. Wow” those Cops are out of control. Shooting a woman with pepper balls and then beating her down to the ground with a baton. 🤨
    Trump’s America 🤔

    1. Was it unprovoked ? Are protesters allowed to abuse the police without consequence ? You think a normal resonable person could stand that hour after hour without losing their temper ?

    2. @Andrew S The problem is they are professionals and they should hold themselves to a higher standard regardless. Words are just words at the end of the day If you let them define you then you have a dilemma On top of that protesters have freedom of speech🤷🏾‍♂️

  8. this is exactly what needs to be reported, this is exactly what needs to change, continue reporting on these kinds of encounters with police

    1. This doesn’t make any sense. Are you talking about the police? Do you understand how hiring practices work? The Governor and Mayor don’t do hiring…they are colluding here though.
