How many journalists have you seen arrested and assaulted by police just for standing away from the protests and simply filming and reporting. You even see this in footage many times. In any of those instances, did you ever see a single reporter throwing rocks at police, setting cars or buildings on fire, or looting?
Every authoritarian throughout history has used some variation of the "law and order" catchphrase to justify just about anything. You won't even know your rights have been taken away until you've lost them. Good luck backing these politicians.CNN producer asked if she speaks English during arrest in Minnesota, lawyer says

I've never considered living in Florida before. I'm seriously considering it now.
My niece moved to Jacksonville a couple of years ago. She loves it.

According to your source the police were trying to break up a crowd and she "had trouble" following orders. It says that she's a producer, not a reporter. How do you have problem with a dispersal order? They tell you to leave and you go.
In another source (Newsweek) it stated she was repeatedly yelling at cops that she's a reporter when they were trying to get her to comply with the arrest. That's why the cop asked if she spoke English. It had nothing to do with her Asian descent, it had to do with her not following their instructions. Plus the fact these were her allegations only.
This just happened yesterday so I await to see what really happened. I'm sure a body cam video by one or more officers will tell us what really took place.
That's what I was expecting when I first heard that they asked if she spoke English: that it was a sarcastic, "Do you not speak English, or are you just stupid?" sort of question.
Which sounds like it was completely justified.
sarcasmYou realize you just did a 180 and completely contridicted yourself....good job...that was really quickUnfortunately it is no surprise and too characteristic.I don't disagree...quite the surprise, uncharacteristic.I guess no one thought those law-and-order conservatives would do the same or worse as BLM.The laws in DC were drastically changed by the Dem leadership in the city after the police responded to the Dem brownshirt insurrectionist earlier in the summer. The leftwingers in DC wanted to make looting and rioting easier. DC Mayor Signs Sweeping Police Reform BillToo bad there was tougher laws in DC, they would have come in handy on Jan 6th.For those of you on the left confused as to what real leadership looks like, all you have to do is look at Republican Governor Ron DeSantis. Harsher penalties for rioters and you cannot damage any monuments of any kind. In those commie parts of the state, it would fine all local governments who interfere with policing during a riot.
This is how to do things the RIGHT way.

I'm guessing the laws were aimed at only one side.In addition, too bad that these laws weren’t in place throughout the US in 2020 were being burnt and looted. It also didn’t help when leaders and celebrities were funding the bail for perpetrators who had been arrested. By January 6, precedent had been set. Florida is taking lead to prevent any such riots from any side.
Getting ready to declare martial law?Militarizing the police....wonder what DeSantis is up to.Interesting that the law mandates how much localities must spend on law enforcement. Big government is OK is you control the government I guess.For those of you on the left confused as to what real leadership looks like, all you have to do is look at Republican Governor Ron DeSantis.

Well Federal Law will Trump (no pun intended) that bullshit law. Maybe you clowns long for the days of Bloody Sunday or maybe he can go and dig up Bull Connor.
Better yet here is the quote from your link:You might want to read your linked articles more carefully.
I did, and it said nothing about forcing cities into security costs. Perhaps you can give me the paragraph where it says that.
Better yet here is the quote from your link:
It would penalize local governments that interfere with law enforcement attempting to contain riots and would provide a citizen’s appeal process when cities and counties attempt to reduce police budgets.

You addressed the first part but the bill would prevent localities from reducing police budgets, meaning the State is mandating how locals use tax revenue. Sounds like government overreach to me and I'd think conservatives would object.Better yet here is the quote from your link:

So what does that have to do with the price of rice in China? That part of the bill is to prevent cities from interfering with federal agencies who send in people to protect a federal building like Trump did, or to prevent them if the state decides to send in state police to bring things under control. State troopers have jurisdiction over the entire state.
This shit isn't even hard.
These continue because they're allowed to.
Start shooting the pieces of trash and see how many show up for night 2.
Goof for DeSantis. Only sane governor in the whole damn country at this point...
I agree. I live in Florida and our Governor has stated rioters, looters and arsonists will be shot on sight in this state.
Shoot a few. As you say no one will turn up for night 2.
Wanna bet? Chauvin is going to be convicted and it will mark the beginning of the end of police immunity. Shoot a few protestors without cause and we'll see more police behind bars for murder.

Rioting is not speech. Protest is, but destroying someone else's property, assaulting and killing is not.The 1st ammendment?And it's Republicans making the laws tougher.

Is there anything about private citizens from other states arming themselves and killing protestors? How about running protestors over? Occupying government buildings?I'm guessing the laws were aimed at only one side.In addition, too bad that these laws weren’t in place throughout the US in 2020 were being burnt and looted.

yea.... all that rioting, burning, looting, murdering. Such a bad step to try and reduce that. How the hell can it be one sided? What does that side look like? Does the “other side” get a pass???
Except your link said the law has an "appeal process when cities and counties attempt to reduce police budgets".You addressed the first part but the bill would prevent localities from reducing police budgets, meaning the State is mandating how locals use tax revenue. Sounds like government overreach to me and I'd think conservatives would object.
Except it says nothing about that in the law. A city can spend whatever they want on their police and the state won't do anything about it. If their force is too small to handle the situation, like I said, state police or the national guard may move in.
