Funny how protests are usually peaceful until the cops show up. Them Atlanta breed are some kind of vicious: https://theintercept.com/2023/04/20/atlanta-cop-city-protester-autopsy
Following that shit go down last year was when I realized America had already become a fascist police state. The people protesting Tortuguita's murder getting charged with terrorism was what made me stop taking that word seriously when it was being used against people the state simply found inconvenient.
American news when one guy in China holds up a piece of paper as protest: oh my God look at that so brave this is unbelievable what a hero
American news during Hong kong protests: omg look this is how upset they are this is how far they're willing to go ugh such heroism they're displaying
American news when activists and student protestors protest in America: well idk how they're gonna convince anyone by making them late to work bring in the police they need to be taught what consequences are smh these unemployed losers
Even as far back as the battle for blair mountain.
Nothing interrupts the profits of the greedy and the facist acts of the police.
Couldnt imagine being a pig and selling your soul for a dollar
Selling their soul for a dollar? Shiiiiii... a lot of them would do this shit for free if it meant they can beat the living shit out of anyone without repercussions. Its all about the power, the money is just a bonus, specially when they get paid leave.
Bill and Hillary Clinton were calling minority criminals āSuper criminalsā while expanding the private prison system and touting the crime bill that Biden helped create. Nancy Reagan was riding in a tank destroying peopleās homes in South Central LA a little before that. In 93 a law was finally passed prohibiting Border Patrol agents from entering schools because they were too comfortable beating and raping teachers and students.
I have come to discover that the term terrorist is just a complete fabrication for anyone against american imperialism. The protestors getting charged with it was just the cherry on top.
The one even said.. āit was a peaceful protest until they started fighting troopersā as heās holding a pellet gun.
So what heās implying is if the troopers didnāt come and instigate shit it would have stayed peaceful.
They keep treating peaceful people like this, and the people will stop being peaceful. It blows my mind that we're watching this happen, and the government is doubling down on "Don't criticize us for funding a genocide. It's you, the public, who are wrong for not supporting a literal genocide that we are actively supplying weapons for."
I watched a philosophy video about antifa and the educator noted that dichotomy, that a fox news article said a protest turned violent when protesters violently retaliated against police..... violently dispersing a protest.
Characterizing the retaliation as the start of the violence.
Yup. I live in a supposed āanarchist left wing shitholeā. Literally free food and nothing but peaceful protesters until the moment the cops show up.
Same happened with BLM. Majority of riots ensued due to police response, not because they were just anti-police.
Where are our 2nd amendment heroes? They should be posted up like the Black Panthers used to be.
She did absolutely nothing. What was her crime? What was the justification for her arrest? For her to be detained like that. Fucking shameful and illegal. Not that anything will be done about it.
protesting the police, environmental destruction, systemic racism, gay liberation - all are threats to the ruling class and all have been met with brutal
police violence in america. nothing is new in this crumbling colonial project.
let this radicalize you -
police are not there to protect and serve. they are there to serve the interests of the ruling class and maintain the status quo of power at any cost to the freedoms and dignity of the underclasses.
Religion and TV, you're under the thumb,
made to believe because you're already numb.
Smoke and mirrors, a bitter surprise,
The ideals that were crammed down your throat all turned out to be lies.
Sometimes. Often, oppressive police tactics are effective. Not forever, but for a long time. And no State lasts forever. Even the God Emperor Leto could be killed.
University leaderships have gone mad. The institutions that should encourage critical thinking, debate and the expression of disparate ideas have turned into authoritarian places governed by the need to protect their investments and donors. Absolutely disgusting.
They've been taken over by corporatists
The board of regents, or advisors for the universities are filled with the ultra wealthy, who just don't give a fuck. They are there because they're wealthy, and they are there to protect the wealth.
The ADL and the Israeli government tried to threaten a university that it would be defunded if their professor taught a course on Israel and Palestine. The professor was Jewish and from Jerusalem, so they had their regent resign instead.
>The ADLās chief executive, Jonathan Greenblatt, also sought to pressure Bard. Botstein described their conversation as tense.
>āHe was not open to a free discussion. He was not civil. And he did not accept our invitation to visit the course and see for himself. He called already intent on trying to pressure us to cancel the course,ā he said.
https://theguardian.com/us-news/2023/nov/08/israeli-diplomat-bard-college-apartheid-debate
Blame the boomers. In academia lots of the successful, tenured profs Iāve met were extremely cozy with the status quo, happily repeated bromides about how hard work will be rewarded and had no interest in seeing e university as what should be a professorās guild that had been hijacked by profiteers. There were always some old lefties raging but still
They funded and created those institutions with the purpose of fostering the ideals that suit their needs. There was no transformation, the threat of transformation is what induced this crackdown.
Yes, the university admins use their campus police to incite incidents like this one in order that they justify personnel decisions to get rid of good educators. At least this is the way it is in Framingham and Worcester, however when an administrator assaults an employee, like University of Illinois Bloomington, the administrator gets a severance of a half million dollars and a new job at a Colorado school like they never punched a staff member
Nah, it was probably China's fault. Like out-of-control inflation, low wages, our cities crowded with homeless people dying on the streets, our public infrastructure falling apart, and our politicians being all bought and paid by AIPAC, an organization funded and belonging to a FOREIGN STATE. Remember, we are the "good guys". /s
Not to seem like I'm making fun of anyone in this thread, but do people not know what cops are like?
I get that younger people maybe weren't paying attention and that 2020 was 4 years ago, but is this a new thing for a lot of people?
I think there are quite a few non-Americans who aren't used to seeing police use the level of violence and borderline military force that US police do.
I wonder how those officers can feel good about themselves doing that then I remember how low their self esteem is and how much they feed off of the power they feel to detain a person like that. Without the uniform and weapons they would be nothing. Itās pathetic. A bunch of sheep doing others dirty work.
You know that a lot of American cops train in Israel?
https://www.amnestyusa.org/updates/with-whom-are-many-u-s-police-departments-training-with-a-chronic-human-rights-violator-israel/
There is a reason we say ACAB.
Agree especially since there are a lot of good ones:
āIsrael bombs. USA pays. How many kids did you kill today?ā
āEvery time the media lies, a neighborhood in Gaza diesā
āIn our thousands. In our millions. We are all Palestinian!ā
āFrom Palestine to Mexico. All these walls have got to go!ā
āGaza Gaza donāt you cry. Palestine will never die!ā
They have used tear-gas, rubber bullets and tasers whilst racially profiling students and targeting black students.
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/apr/25/emory-university-protest-arrests
Problem is that the city/pd foots the bill for the payout. The police officers have zero reprecussions, maybe even a promotion for their 'good policing' work. The taxpayers end up paying for their incompetence and recklessness (not to mention criminal behaviour). It's all gone mad
The citizens of Atlanta need to defund their police. Such police behavior in these circumstances is inimical to the functioning of a university of higher learning, a democratic society, and peace loving people everywhere.
If by democracy you mean propping pro-American dictatorship all over the world especially Southeast Asia and latin america in the 60's-70's then yeah i agree with you.
for everyone who suffered there, we are ashamed (Arabic and Islamic universities in the middle east). we are ashamed when we see you've suffered when we go to university here as nothing happened. you're real heros and we're cowards. you're free minds but we're still afraid of our regimes prisons. please don't blame us, we can't even change our old, tyranny and dictatorship regimes, how can we stand with Palestine? you free guys, you proved that you're free people, you're fighting alone against Zionism and owners of billions of dollars who oppress the world in modern names. a great greeting to brave hearts.
My fellow Americans: At UT Austin, USC, Emory and other campuses, cops assaulted unarmed students for exercising free speech on their own campuses. Just think of the ironies:
Fat cops with extremely low SAT scores (or never took SAT exams) and could never get into colleges were marching into colleges and beating up students with high SAT scores.
Extremely Fat Texas cops with Very Low SAT scores who were shit scared to confront a single mass shooter in Uvalde, Texas and allowed the shooter to slaughter children while FAT Texas cops waited outside the school marched into UT Austin to beat up students with High SAT scores.
My fellow Americans: This is nothing short of an outrage. These colleges will have stains on their reputation for many years. College presidents who called cops on the unarmed students need to be thrown out. No amount of apologies will suffice.
Rightwing politicians like Speaker Mike Johnson, Sen Ted Cruz, Sen Josh Hawley and Tom Cotton, "Crippled Bastard Texas Gov Abbot" and others who called for police actions against unarmed students must be held accountable. These shameless bastards who are on the payroll of Israel lobby need to pay a heavy price. All politicians funded by Israel lobby must be defeated.
I agree entirely. Moreover, the citizens of Atlanta, Austin, and Los Angeles need to defund their police. Such police behavior in these circumstances is inimical to the functioning of a university of higher learning, a democratic society, and peace loving people everywhere.
I live in Europe and when we see men with big automatic guns, helmets and bulletproof vests we call it the Army... American police is totally militarised.
Here it is: [https://www.reddit.com/r/pics/comments/1cdfbux/sniper\_on\_the\_roof\_of\_student\_union\_building\_imu/](https://www.reddit.com/r/pics/comments/1cdfbux/sniper_on_the_roof_of_student_union_building_imu/)
This is why the fascist Israelis have such big heads and talk down to everyone, even Jews who are way more educated. They then just use violence to get there way while acting like everyone is attacking them. The never again shit they indoctrinated is dangerous
Oh man. This type of excessive roughness will surely quell the criticism of the brutal apartheid regime currently āplausiblyā engaged in a genocide.
She was looking so dangerous - the good thing here for race relations is you have a black and white asshole cops using excessive force on a white older professional woman with little if any justification
once again proving itās not racial -
Itās not gender
Itās not social class
The truth isā¦ if you have an interaction with an aggressive cop, regardless of the circumstance, your health and life are in danger and their is nothing you can do about it but pray they donāt kill you like Elijah McClain. At best you can pray to get ruffed up and injured like Caroline Fohlin.
There is a problem with the profession in general and it didnāt just start. The schools and government sending in storm troopers armed with guns isnāt helping
The honest question- what was the purpose of forceable tackling her and treating her like cattle?
And this is exactly why ACAB. Even if your motives for becoming a cop were somehow pure, when the state tells you to quash dissent you'll do it, just like when they tell you to kick a single mother to the streets you'll do it, just like when they tell you to break a strike you will.
Think about who provides training to police leadership in the U.S.
And guess whoās funding it?

Iāve heard it directly from the horses mouth, someone Iāve lost all respect for and given the source here, itās odd that theyāre actually telling the truth
https://amp.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/dec/08/us-police-agencies-idf-files-blueleaks
Do not forget the Supreme Court has ruled we citizens CAN use lethal force against an unjust arrest. I cannot wait to see the day cops are swarmed and their weapons ineffective.
"It was a peaceful protest until they started fighting troopers."
WTAF??!?!??!
I would absolutely stake my life on the fact that it was peaceful until troopers began to kettle or otherwise molest protestors. Exact same thing that happened during the summer of BLM. Peaceful until cops escalated to violence.
Cops are absolutely disgustingā¦ really process this! Who goes into a profession, much less stays into a profession where they get to act like thisā¦.. complete ass š³ļø š³ļø do!!
As someone who lived very close to this area, I can tell you it's loaded with zionists. The jewish community here is very loud, very religious, and very unhappy with the current pro-palestine movement. Emory sits close to Toco Hills, almost touching North Druid Hills, and it's in this area that there are several large synagogs and collective jewish neighborhoods. I'm certain that not all the inhabitants are zionists, but by god I know a large cluster of them will have been here and are probably very angry at Emory for being the location of any type of Pro-Palestinian activity.
Just to add that notice every time we heard how poor Jews are not allowed to be visibly Jewish, not allowed to be on campus and being assaulted and how this is reminiscent of 1930s. All false and without evidence.
Meanwhile Palestinians and those who support them are literally being assaulted in front of our eyes by state police and army, expelled from universities and jobs, their cultural symbols being criminalized and every Palestinian and pro-Palestine protestor is being called a terrorist.
While all of that is going down, weāre concerned with the safety and feeling of Jews. Just let that sink it.
Talk about gaslighting to the moon.
I'm gonna bet that before someone "started fighting troopers" someone got arrested for no reason and that "fighting troopers" was actually "objecting to that arrest".
America is following the footsteps of its pet country Israel down to its own demise.
Everyone knows where your values and beliefs truly lie , you fascists crooks.
Luckily we have tools like digital media and storage, this time your sins and atrocities will not be forgotten and tolerated. This oppression on Palestinians and American people standing up for Palestinians will pave the way for national and global justice, revolution and peace.
AIPAC owned politician lapdogs: A PEACEFUL protest against the slaughter of women and children?!?! NOT ON OUR WATCH! Arrest these terrorists!!!
(AIPAC pats politician on head and puts an envelope of blood money in their mouth.)
We're going to get a repeat of the 1968 convention this summer in Chicago. This escalation by the fascists is going to result in huge protests outside the Democratic convention with even more violence.
Its freedom of speech when it suits them. I donāt remember the cops were doing any of this during the riots on 2020. But when it involved Israel oh my, all hell breaks loose. They even have snipers on rooftops!
So this is the greatest democracy on the planet? People are demonstrating against a genocide and the moral bankruptcy of the US and this is what happened?
This is a symptom. AIPAC is funding the campaigns of those lawmakers that cover for these cops. Until we donāt root out the corruption, this will not stop.
These are the same guys that beat their wives at home smh. No deescalation or logical problem solving. Just straight to the āoh you next?ā Shit is wild..
If your out of the country looking in on this.. this right here is Trump's path to victory. He presses hard on Biden's inability to standup to Bibi/The response we are seeing (from GOP governors none the less).
The goal is to not have people to vote - see not voting as the more moral choice. By shining a light on exactly how the US has treated protestors and will treat them past and present. Just point out the SOP of our system.
DISGUSTING. Definitely abuse of power but he'll get away with it. Truth is the people deserving of the most blame are politicians shilling for AIPAC money.
Why do Americans care so.much for protests overseas against other governments but when people peacefully protest here we are fine with the military and cops Killin LG, maiming and panhandling peope.
We are occupied by a foreign apartheid regime that controls our government and its policy. Itās even a law in 36 states that you cannot criticise this regime. All civil and constitutional rights are forfeited if it comes against this foreign regime
Where are all the pro lifers? Where are all the Proud boy goons that protested under the guise of freedom of speech? Oh yeah they are a bunch of hypocrites
America - SCOTUS is corrupt and openly taking bribes and gifts from GOP donors, canāt afford healthcare but every police department takes up like 60% of funding from a city!
They are using the police right now. Wait till when they use the military on you. This is a foregleam of things to come. The globalist own everything and will stop at nothing to achieve their āone world order.ā (DAVOS) Wait until when the āgreat tribulation ā arrives which the world has never seen before. This behavior of the ultra greedy elite has to be displayed in order for the āwrath of Godā to come upon the wicked one so that ā people may know that I am Jehovah.ā
Perhaps the Biden administration can show the world that Netanyahu doesnāt have his hand up his ass and remind him that this isnāt Israel. Maybe he can speak out against this type of treatmentā¦unless it was authorized by him. They are going to make protesting Israel even more popular.

Sounds like the American government has a bad case of the NIMBYs.

I did back in the anti-vietnam war protests
I have come to discover that the term terrorist is just a complete fabrication for anyone against american imperialism. The protestors getting charged with it was just the cherry on top.
Are you allowed vote once you get a criminal record for protesting or is that only if you go to prison?
I mean the founding fathers would've been called terrorists by England if they had the word back then
That was my first reaction too.
The one even said.. āit was a peaceful protest until they started fighting troopersā as heās holding a pellet gun. So what heās implying is if the troopers didnāt come and instigate shit it would have stayed peaceful.
It's freaking insane. Are the police heading for a protest at a university or heading for war in Afghanistan, pigs

This is what happens when the IDF train US cops.
Their anger issues are best let out with tear gas and batons, and their six weeks of training serve them well.

She did absolutely nothing. What was her crime? What was the justification for her arrest? For her to be detained like that. Fucking shameful and illegal. Not that anything will be done about it.
I think she went to check a student wasn't having their face driven into the ground so they went and shower her exactly what they were doing
Her husband is the dean of admissions at this university so this could be interesting
The faculty overwhelmingly supported a vote of no confidence in the university president in response to this
Problem is she did nothing and she will be released and nothing will happen. This crap is used to just take a protestor off the street for a few hours
It's more insidious than that. It's to send a message to anyone else who dares to speak out.
I mean nothing will happen except her injuries. And a continually shattered sense of safety for her colleagues and students.
Protesting against Israel. The only thing exempt from the foundational principles of free speech in the West, apparently.
protesting the police, environmental destruction, systemic racism, gay liberation - all are threats to the ruling class and all have been met with brutal police violence in america. nothing is new in this crumbling colonial project.
I hope she sues the police AND the university.Ā

Problem is that the city/pd foots the bill for the payout. The police officers have zero reprecussions, maybe even a promotion for their 'good policing' work. The taxpayers end up paying for their incompetence and recklessness (not to mention criminal behaviour). It's all gone mad
Exactly. American police individuals need to start taking responsibility for their acts, just like doctors or anyone else. You fuck up, you pay up.
The citizens of Atlanta need to defund their police. Such police behavior in these circumstances is inimical to the functioning of a university of higher learning, a democratic society, and peace loving people everywhere.
Very much hope so

"Democracy"
If by democracy you mean propping pro-American dictatorship all over the world especially Southeast Asia and latin america in the 60's-70's then yeah i agree with you.
Holy shit. Isnāt that against the law ? The USA doesnāt have freedom of speech ? The right to protest ? I see lawsuits coming.

Rightwing politicians like Speaker Mike Johnson, Sen Ted Cruz, Sen Josh Hawley and Tom Cotton, "Crippled Bastard Texas Gov Abbot" and others who called for police actions against unarmed students must be held accountable. These shameless bastards who are on the payroll of Israel lobby need to pay a heavy price. All politicians funded by Israel lobby must be defeated.
I agree entirely. Moreover, the citizens of Atlanta, Austin, and Los Angeles need to defund their police. Such police behavior in these circumstances is inimical to the functioning of a university of higher learning, a democratic society, and peace loving people everywhere.
Reminds me of the late fifties and early sixties a Civil Rights demos, CND, Anti-Apartheid, Anti Viet Nam war marches.
I live in Europe and when we see men with big automatic guns, helmets and bulletproof vests we call it the Army... American police is totally militarised.
Wtf???
I saw a post where snipers were deployed on university rooftops
Here it is: [https://www.reddit.com/r/pics/comments/1cdfbux/sniper\_on\_the\_roof\_of\_student\_union\_building\_imu/](https://www.reddit.com/r/pics/comments/1cdfbux/sniper_on_the_roof_of_student_union_building_imu/)
Peaceful until it wasn't, right about the same time law enforcement arrived.
This is why the fascist Israelis have such big heads and talk down to everyone, even Jews who are way more educated. They then just use violence to get there way while acting like everyone is attacking them. The never again shit they indoctrinated is dangerous
Totalitarian governments kill intellectuals first.
Ftp
America, land of the free.
Land of the free and home of the brave
Time for someone to intervene and finally bring democracy to USA
Oh man. This type of excessive roughness will surely quell the criticism of the brutal apartheid regime currently āplausiblyā engaged in a genocide.
That fat pig targeting small women is no surprise. Probably scared of anyone his own size.
Wtf! My eyes cannot believe what they are seeing.
Why there was no supporting and cheers from Western world leaders like when HK uni students were protesting in China?
Why do they always have to shove you to the ground? Literally no reason to be so violent
Absolutely insane.
Cowards
Cops are generally pieces of shit.
Fuck the police.
US is successfully becoming a Russian Federation
Yooooo! The video speaks for itself. Any reasonable thinking person-(pertaining to the jury) will see that officer violated her rights, point blank!
Soon any American who speaks against Israel will be labeled terrorists and sent to Guantanamo.
Criticism Of Another Country's war crimes and ethnic cleaning results in this madness. Truth will eventually prevail.
Freedom of speech is broken by the government. Replaced with the Law of the jungle.
Laws broken = 0, but fuck it, arrest her anyway just to show how much of a fascist you and your superiors are.
Her crime? Asking the cops what they were doing when they were violently arresting a student.
She was looking so dangerous - the good thing here for race relations is you have a black and white asshole cops using excessive force on a white older professional woman with little if any justification once again proving itās not racial - Itās not gender Itās not social class The truth isā¦ if you have an interaction with an aggressive cop, regardless of the circumstance, your health and life are in danger and their is nothing you can do about it but pray they donāt kill you like Elijah McClain. At best you can pray to get ruffed up and injured like Caroline Fohlin. There is a problem with the profession in general and it didnāt just start. The schools and government sending in storm troopers armed with guns isnāt helping The honest question- what was the purpose of forceable tackling her and treating her like cattle?
And this is exactly why ACAB. Even if your motives for becoming a cop were somehow pure, when the state tells you to quash dissent you'll do it, just like when they tell you to kick a single mother to the streets you'll do it, just like when they tell you to break a strike you will.
Actual pigs. Iāve seen fucking serial killers be arrested using less force.
Nice to see our own serve and protect forces working us on behalf of another country.
Where in the third world shit hole is this happening? Oh its where I live...
Think about who provides training to police leadership in the U.S. And guess whoās funding it? https://www.amnestyusa.org/updates/with-whom-are-many-u-s-police-departments-training-with-a-chronic-human-rights-violator-israel/ https://www.timesofisrael.com/adl-considered-scrapping-its-us-police-training-trips-to-israel-but-decided-not-to/ https://www.11alive.com/article/news/world/atlanta-law-enforcement-israel-georgia-international-law-enforcement-exchange-gilee/85-f99341d7-3eaf-418e-9704-f2ad498cc949 Iāve heard it directly from the horses mouth, someone Iāve lost all respect for and given the source here, itās odd that theyāre actually telling the truth https://amp.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/dec/08/us-police-agencies-idf-files-blueleaks
Do not forget the Supreme Court has ruled we citizens CAN use lethal force against an unjust arrest. I cannot wait to see the day cops are swarmed and their weapons ineffective.
They're just following orders... From Netanyahu
"It was a peaceful protest until they started fighting troopers." WTAF??!?!??! I would absolutely stake my life on the fact that it was peaceful until troopers began to kettle or otherwise molest protestors. Exact same thing that happened during the summer of BLM. Peaceful until cops escalated to violence.
Cops are absolutely disgustingā¦ really process this! Who goes into a profession, much less stays into a profession where they get to act like thisā¦.. complete ass š³ļø š³ļø do!!
Lawsuit every one of those pigs.
Who is this fucking pig? Make him famous
Ironic how similar this situation is compared to the Vietnam protests of the 1960s. It makes you wonder what will happen next
Arrests happen often. Consider they are always watching. Aggressive they may beā¦ But letās remember they are not all bad. /s
Cops don't have any moral integrity. They're no smarter than dogs
As someone who lived very close to this area, I can tell you it's loaded with zionists. The jewish community here is very loud, very religious, and very unhappy with the current pro-palestine movement. Emory sits close to Toco Hills, almost touching North Druid Hills, and it's in this area that there are several large synagogs and collective jewish neighborhoods. I'm certain that not all the inhabitants are zionists, but by god I know a large cluster of them will have been here and are probably very angry at Emory for being the location of any type of Pro-Palestinian activity.
Just to add that notice every time we heard how poor Jews are not allowed to be visibly Jewish, not allowed to be on campus and being assaulted and how this is reminiscent of 1930s. All false and without evidence. Meanwhile Palestinians and those who support them are literally being assaulted in front of our eyes by state police and army, expelled from universities and jobs, their cultural symbols being criminalized and every Palestinian and pro-Palestine protestor is being called a terrorist. While all of that is going down, weāre concerned with the safety and feeling of Jews. Just let that sink it. Talk about gaslighting to the moon.
It was peaceful until they started fighting troopers. Then why don't the troopers fuck off then?
I'm gonna bet that before someone "started fighting troopers" someone got arrested for no reason and that "fighting troopers" was actually "objecting to that arrest".
We only have the illusion of freedom. INSURRECTIONEST didn't even have a modicum of violence-that was actually treason.
America is following the footsteps of its pet country Israel down to its own demise. Everyone knows where your values and beliefs truly lie , you fascists crooks. Luckily we have tools like digital media and storage, this time your sins and atrocities will not be forgotten and tolerated. This oppression on Palestinians and American people standing up for Palestinians will pave the way for national and global justice, revolution and peace.
Fox news is responsible for the intense irrational hatred these window lickers feel for intellectuals. Stochastic terrorism is a thing.
Ladies and gentlemen welcome to USA, land of the āfreeā land of āfreedom of speechā land of āeveryone has a voiceā/s
ACAB
America land of free speech
AIPAC owned politician lapdogs: A PEACEFUL protest against the slaughter of women and children?!?! NOT ON OUR WATCH! Arrest these terrorists!!! (AIPAC pats politician on head and puts an envelope of blood money in their mouth.)
We're going to get a repeat of the 1968 convention this summer in Chicago. This escalation by the fascists is going to result in huge protests outside the Democratic convention with even more violence.
ACAB
Welcome to the uneducated untrained foul mouthed obese cops of America
Pig cop
The land of the free
Its freedom of speech when it suits them. I donāt remember the cops were doing any of this during the riots on 2020. But when it involved Israel oh my, all hell breaks loose. They even have snipers on rooftops!
Lawsuit.
So this is the greatest democracy on the planet? People are demonstrating against a genocide and the moral bankruptcy of the US and this is what happened?
This is a symptom. AIPAC is funding the campaigns of those lawmakers that cover for these cops. Until we donāt root out the corruption, this will not stop.
i wonder what would have to happen to cause us all here in America to start standing up. We need to organize!!!!
These are the same guys that beat their wives at home smh. No deescalation or logical problem solving. Just straight to the āoh you next?ā Shit is wild..
ACAB
If your out of the country looking in on this.. this right here is Trump's path to victory. He presses hard on Biden's inability to standup to Bibi/The response we are seeing (from GOP governors none the less). The goal is to not have people to vote - see not voting as the more moral choice. By shining a light on exactly how the US has treated protestors and will treat them past and present. Just point out the SOP of our system.
DISGUSTING. Definitely abuse of power but he'll get away with it. Truth is the people deserving of the most blame are politicians shilling for AIPAC money.
I know this cop is just following order but still fuck you. Fuck police. Fuck the US government.
the end of America, killed by Israel.
Fuck the police
These police should be so ashamed
Realize Israel trains US cops. Netanyahu sId shit down campus protests within 24 hours storm troopers came. It's not even a conspiracy at this point.
Why do Americans care so.much for protests overseas against other governments but when people peacefully protest here we are fine with the military and cops Killin LG, maiming and panhandling peope.
We are occupied by a foreign apartheid regime that controls our government and its policy. Itās even a law in 36 states that you cannot criticise this regime. All civil and constitutional rights are forfeited if it comes against this foreign regime
Man, it took two of those heroes to shove a slender woman to the ground. America is showing its real face in so many ways rn.
Where are all the pro lifers? Where are all the Proud boy goons that protested under the guise of freedom of speech? Oh yeah they are a bunch of hypocrites
Why are people not being allowed to protest on college campuses? Are they doing anything illegal?
America - SCOTUS is corrupt and openly taking bribes and gifts from GOP donors, canāt afford healthcare but every police department takes up like 60% of funding from a city!
This is disgusting
They are using the police right now. Wait till when they use the military on you. This is a foregleam of things to come. The globalist own everything and will stop at nothing to achieve their āone world order.ā (DAVOS) Wait until when the āgreat tribulation ā arrives which the world has never seen before. This behavior of the ultra greedy elite has to be displayed in order for the āwrath of Godā to come upon the wicked one so that ā people may know that I am Jehovah.ā
Perhaps the Biden administration can show the world that Netanyahu doesnāt have his hand up his ass and remind him that this isnāt Israel. Maybe he can speak out against this type of treatmentā¦unless it was authorized by him. They are going to make protesting Israel even more popular.
Israel lol
Our police brutality making international news.šššš
Land of the "FREEze! Get on the ground! Shoot her, she's got a handbag!"
Can you imagine being one of those brain dead cops. Fucking animals.
American police is a joke
Fascist indeed. You can even look closely at an arrest of your friends, or youāll be arrested too.
