  1. “The US Government takes the mistreatment of journalists very seriously and will perform it with the highest standards and a Saudi spirit.”

    1. Humour gets us through much in life, the commentary gave me a chuckle too……look after yourself over there…love Australia xxx

    2. I’M australian: and it was an “i identify with you” laugh, by the way… not a “youre the butt of the joke” laugh

  2. Teach those Aussies a lesson! How dare they think freedom of the Press applies here in the U.S.A.!

    1. Um freedom of the press does apply here in the US because it’s part of an amendment dumbass.

    2. nobody support violent protect. What the world is upset is that America n some if it’s allies like Australia have supported violent protest in HK where the protesters went out to burn down train station n public facilities and beat up, stabbed n threw petrol.bombs on the police officers. And this last for more than a year n yet yr hypocritical gov continue to voice support for them n criticizied the Chinese gov. The US gov even invited some of these urban terrorist leaders to the US Congress n encourage them to continue their protest.
      Now the American people are swallowing n suffering the poison they fed to the Hongkong people. Serve you guys righ!!

  3. “The US takes the mistreatment of journalists seriously.” That’s very obvious.

    If we were at war right now, we’d be violating multiple Geneva Conventions against ourselves. This needs to end, NOW.

  5. Fox news: “Left wing journalist attack Police Shields with stomach, while President calls for Peace” 🙄

    1. @jeck jeck Colored women kill more of their own babies in one week than have died from police in a year!

  6. Because of the time difference it was live to Australia morning show and people in Australia were horrified.

  7. Man, the cops are being more violent than the rioters in some cases. I saw one video of cops shooting pepper balls at innocent people who were not even protesting that were in their own yard.

    1. Did you notice how they didnt do any thing to the once behind the gate where the medua belonged hmmm makes wonder

    2. @Light Fox Whether that is true or not, the force used was brutal and TOTALLY UNNECESSARY!

    3. @Phillip, not in times like this where democrats are pitting cops against protesters and putting them in danger.

    4. @Phillip Ridgway it is necessary the burnibg down building, homes and cars looting beeating people to near death and even. To death some times so it is necessery its not gonna stop on its own

  8. A persons character will always be revealed underpressure and they gave this dude authority to make matters worse!

    1. Exactly and were seeing the black character exposed for what it is!
      Colored women kill more of their own babies in one week than have died from police in a year!

  9. Germany asks:
    “WTF is going on in the US?
    I thought you had this under control!”

    1. The left thr media area and intered the danger zone so this happen if they stay on the other side of the gate they wouldnt have gotten hurt

    1. Because the videos of 3 black thugs beating the sh*t of a defenseless woman in front of her husband isn’t on your side, right? Because THAT woman had anything to do with this whole, sh*t, right?

      And before all of this happened… bricks smashed onto the head of a reporter and causing memory loss and permanent brain injury just for having a different political view… what was THAT one attributed to?

      Stop pretending like you leftists aren’t always happily ready to latch onto any excuse to cause mayhem and violence. You boneheads are just using this Floyd issue to do what you enjoy doing… violence. You are NOT part of the movement that actually wants REAL change. What you want… is simply chaos.

    2. They left the the media safe zone right behined them and enter the danger zone what did they think would happen

  10. These aggro cops need to go. We’re seeing more and more this everyday. Especially on reporters, it’s like they’re targeting them.

    1. @Jared Stevens dumb dumb.. there should’ve not even be order of clear out when there’s a peaceful protesting going on, but Ayatollah trump decided to give one so he could walk across the street.

    2. CNN reporter Omar thought the same thing, rules don’t apply to him and that’s why he got arrested live on TV.

    3. @Elena Krane Its actually not trump’s fault tho. Secret service are the ones who ordered the police to move out the crowd for the safety of the President during these hard times. With or without his permission. He has to follow guidelines and rules as president.
