  1. When your government states it’s okay for them to enter your home and murder you for no fault of your own. Common sense says expect people to get angry at that government.

    1. People of your peers herd the evidence and made their judgment…you weren’t there and you probably didn’t even know her…why aren’t any of you upset over the BF…funny he walks with no consequences for shooting a cop after they knocked and identified themselves..his shot got her killed period

    2. Yeah, we should default to criminals to the exclusion of our own intelligence. And then when we end up like Central America or most every nation in Africa, we can all sit with dumbfounded looks.

    3. @James I think we agree that these changes you mention are good. Since you didn’t mention it, I think we agree it was also not murder.

    4. A quote from someone who used to brag about spitting in white people’s foods. “There is nothing more painful to me at this stage in my life than to walk down the street and hear footsteps… then turn around and see somebody white and feel relieved.” – Jesse Jackson

  2. At this point in 2020, I’m just waiting for an alien invasion to either save us from ourselves or just put us out of our misery.

    1. @Kayne not Kanye! Actually the tards already tried that, BLM and Antifa are dismal failures. We will finish it for you though! Keep poking at that giant Cupcake!

    2. @Drake Sessions Drake, actually if there is anyone here, NOT A HISTORIAN, that would actually remember that, that would be impressive!

  3. _NOTE! This is an old style broadside not a “Tweet”. As this is not Twitter. If it’s too much for you to handle, move on. But If you are deeply appalled by what’s happening in this Country, read on._

    👉 *VOTE! BECAUSE WE STILL CAN!* 👈
    🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
    _A Broadside_

    *WE HONOR AND CHERISH* the memory, the courage, and the spirit of those Americans who suffered and fought and died whether willingly or unwillingly in the name of our Nation: on the battlefields, on the cotton fields, on the Great Plains and the River Valleys, and those Americans who are today being assaulted, beaten, shot and murdered by unrepentant and undeniably racist police forces befitting a fascist regime, and those Americans who daily fill our hospitals fighting a novel virus, contagious and deadly. But if we wish to make this claim of honor true, first we must honor Truth itself; for, Truth is the only thing that cannot be overcome. *AND TRUTH IS NOW TELLING US WHAT MUST BE DONE!*

    *REGRETFULLY, IN THE LIGHT OF REASONABLE AND SOUND REFLECTION upon:*

    👉 *His* fluency of falsehoods,
    👉 *His* fear of criticism and responsibility,
    👉 *His* insistence on taking credit where credit is not due,
    👉 *His* deficit of emotion-regulation resulting in juvenile displays, personal attacks and insults unbecoming an adult,
    👉 *His* incumbency and his bid for reelection being void of any plan, agenda, mandate, message, or ideas,
    👉 *His* inability to maintain discretion on social media _and_
    👉 *His* increasingly odious and unstatesmanlike behavior that indicates a pathologically unstable personality such that:
    President Donald Trump has clearly forfeited the trust and the confidence of those government institutions in his charge that possess knowledge, sensitive and secret, on matters affecting national security that they cannot in good confidence share with him — their President and Commander-in-Chief!*

    *OUR NATION* imperfect, ever learning and self-correcting, possesses the keys to enjoy “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness”. Nevertheless there come, from time to time, challenges to this ideal that require remediation. In these times we shall insist that our citizenship be recognized and counted, uncontested!

    *THIS SITUATION* is untenable, unworkable, and gives rise to threats both domestic and foreign to the United States. *WE CANNOT AFFORD THE LUXURY OF BEING AFRAID!* Our moment, described as an “Inflection Point”, has come calling and in this election year of 2020, we have something to do — Let this be _OUR_ remedy!

    *AMERICA WILL NOT BE DISGRACED ANY LONGER!*

    👉 *THIS PRESIDENT* has been derelict in his duties,
    👉 *THIS PRESIDENT* has undermined The Constitution of the United States,
    👉 *THIS PRESIDENT* has committed acts of human cruelty at our Nation’s southern border – potentially to include crimes against humanity,
    👉 *THIS PRESIDENT* has been impeached,
    👉 *THIS PRESIDENT* has been found and confirmed as having lied to the American people about the true nature of the seriousness of COVID-19,
    👉 *THIS PRESIDENT* has not achieved any tangible act toward the betterment of the Nation,
    👉 *THIS PRESIDENT* has withheld information he is required by law to produce,
    👉 *THIS PRESIDENT* has verbally insulted our Servicemen and Servicewomen in our Nation’s military – calling them “suckers”,
    👉 *THIS PRESIDENT* has been curiously evasive amid investigations persuant to the nature of his relationship with the Russian President, Vladimir Putin,
    👉 *THIS PRESIDENT* has openly encouraged extreme street violence at the level of complicity,
    👉 *THIS PRESIDENT* has perverted the utility of America’s federal defense and peace-keeping forces by turning them against America herself!

    _This list of offenses, while not exhaustive, provides more than enough cause to pursue criminal charges!_

    *ALL OF THE ABOVE IS CLEAR, IS OBVIOUS, AND IS TRUE! AS WELL, IT IS KNOWN TO BE TRUE BY ALL BRANCHES OF THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT, BY THE FBI, BY THE UNITED STATES MILITARY, et al; AND BY THE PEOPLE OF THIS NATION!*

    _FOR PRESIDENT, DONALD TRUMP IS NOT QUALIFIED! ON THE CONTRARY, HE IS A MENACE TO THE PEACE!_

    *THEREFORE:*
    *IN ORDER TO RENDER THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT FAMILIAR AND PLEASANT TO THE PEOPLE RATHER THAN TERRIBLE AND UNRECOGNIZABLE*

    *WE SHALL* lawfully heed any required safety measures due to COVID-19 without protest or complaint to include wearing face coverings, gloves, and practicing social distancing.

    *AND IN RETURN*
    *WE SHALL NOT TOLERATE* any barriers, threats, obstructions, hindrances or intrigues of any kind by any party whether from inside the United States or abroad by design or effect that suppresses, deters, delays, denies, manipulates, interrupts, or otherwise alters *OUR CIVIL RIGHT AND OUR CIVIC DUTY TO CAST OUR VOTE, INVIOLATE, AS IT IS GUARANTEED BY THE LAW OF THE LAND — ON OR BEFORE ELECTION DAY — TO REMOVE AND REPLACE PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP AND HIS ADMINISTRATION IN THE NAME OF TRUTH, FOR THE SAKE OF JUSTICE, AND TO RESTORE THE PEACE!*

    1. Very well said and well researched. This is a modern day Nazi Germany with a fascist, racist Hitler of 2020 at the helm and his gestapo cops doing his bidding. And the world stood by and watched it unfold because of fear and intimidation ! Posse comitatus dictates America shall not declare war upon its own citizens exercising their right to peaceful protest. But 70000 rounds of ammunition and weapons banned by the Geneva convention were prepared to be used against its own citizens!!! A modern day Hitler and totally a threat to domestic tranquility !!

    2. @robert logiudice looking at your negative comment toward a competent “Broadside” piece of Communication,

      & Considering the tendency of Westerners ( English-Speaking Users online ) to denounce those who produce information that validly criticises the Status Quo of Our *DISFUNCTIONAL* Political SuperStructure in this United States,

      It appears that WE ALL NEED TO “GET A JOB” – that of Committing to the Advancement of The Legitimate Basis for International P.E.A.C.E.

      Beginning with a Scientific Ideology that Co-Ordinates ALL Physiologicall Needs & All Safety Needs.

    1. Not at all. It looks bad but honestly it’s only happening in Democrat run areas. It’s only a matter of time before they attempt to do this in Conservative run area’s and then the real fireworks will begin. There’s a reason why all the guns and ammo are gone and it’s not Democrats buying it up it’s just us getting ready for the invasion on the communist Dems…… It might get bad here in November but I promise you this once this boils over into community’s that don’t have these problems people are going to just start eliminating the threats… I’ve seen more Democrats in the last 2 months bail on their party like never before because they’re waking up to the media playing games and these politicians with their lives…

  4. It’ll be fine. The president will speak up and condemn this violence, explicitly lay out what needs to be done, and the protests will magically disappear.

    Sadly, I’m just kidding…

    1. Ha like the Democrats would even accept him condemning anything 🤣 🙄. A little less than half of the country in extremely mentally ill and thankfully the decent Democrats are jumping ship and coming to the side that actually contributes to our country. Keep these bs protests up and all you’ll do is secure Trump another 4 years. People are over the poor criminal mentality. There’s tons of evidence out now that shows the officers were justified and Breanna Taylor wasn’t some innocent bystander and same goes with Floyd and all the countless criminals these wastes of oxygen have been “peacefully” protesting for……..

    2. @Krazy Kozey I’m going to assume you are suggesting that the protests are going to be a way that Trump wins the election. I think we saw enough yesterday and over the last week (but especially yesterday) that should cause even devout Republicans to be alarmed. If Trump gets his Supreme Court pick and if the new Supreme Court is then utilized to get ballots thrown out, Trump may successfully steal the election and steal four more years in power. If this happens, watch all rights to vote, all signs of democracy, etc. to just vanish. Democracy will vanish. Even from my perch minutes from the American border, in Canada, I am extraordinarily scared about what this could mean.

  5. Louisville made a huge mistake. You don’t pay out $12 million to a family that had a loved one killed wrongfully then bring basically no charges against the cops responsible! Too bad I live in ky. I had hope Louisville would make this as right as they can but they did not

    1. Vicki, Does it sound like premeditated murder to you, do you think that cop expected her boyfriend to fire on them?

    2. I think the whole world knew that was typical USA consumerist attitudes & suing culture tbh. Buy them off and/or give over&above typical compensation payment cz they always knew there would be no prosecution. Who knows 🤷‍♀️Maybe a group of actual decent ppl in a different part of the local administration, who knew this was going to be so wrong&unjust, made sure to pre-empt the justice system with the civil proceedings bcoz otherwise after lack criminal case the compensation would have been a *LOT* less?

      Doesn’t make it right.
      But might indicate the existence of *some* decency in that State. Some person/people worth noting & working with for information, for evidence for Int’l trial, for legitimate change?

  6. Come on Mitch, your state is now an anarchist state. Go fix it, meet these people publicly without any bodyguards or protection

    1. Bring in the national guard and arrest everyone destroying property. That way civilized people can have a discussion on how to move forward.

  7. Nothing changed same old ! They still not hearing you!! Until it affects you ! 16000 children dieing every day,in the world and what we doin about that ? Nothin

  8. Does ANYONE actually KNOW the History of *STATE MILITARY REPPRESSION* in Urban Centers around the World WHENEVER Citizens Rise Up (?)

    Does Anyone actually look into the State Military Apperatus

    & Think to themselves :

    “WHO exactly are These persons who take up Weapons in order to *SUPPRESS* the so-called illegal actions of Citizens (?)”

    Who among those *SEEKING* PROGRESSIVELY ADVANCED *DIRECT* *DEMOCRACY*

    are there who are *ORGANIZING* *LEGITIMATE* *FORCES* THAT GO BEYOND THE STATE APPERATUS

    & build an
    • accurate
    • accountable
    • aware
    • adaptable
    • co-ordinated
    SocioEconomic Community

    Based on *SCIENCE*
    not *$ELLING* *OUT* (?)

  9. Nice to see a city where the police are allowed to do their job, putting down mobs of the ignorant, the stupid and the evil.

  10. Protesters ? Really?.
    Are you talking about looting, rioting or killing officers?
    Come on fake news. What are trying to hide here?.
