So do we do away with police?

Huh....whaaa?

 

[NoTeaPartyPleez]

Yeah when they break shit and burn things, it really helps their cause.

Legitimate protestors far outnumber the handful of people who "break shit and burn things".

You are just another tool of the media that refuses to scratch beneath the surface of a headline or a 10-second video clip.

The cameras follow the action because it makes for better ratings. I'm sure you don't know this infamous line of the press, "If it bleeds, it leads".

Good for them. Godspeed. The cops in this country need to get a collective wedgie up their tight asses on how to behave.

Police have formed a lime at MLK and center. I see some signs of organized anarchists here to **** shit up.

Looks like it's moving towards university and Shattuck

I have been wondering how their presence might shape activities ... I haven't figured out if the anarchists are protesting or just coat-tailing the cause to advance their own awareness.

Thanks for the updates.

Turn off the cameras and they will all lose interest and go home.

 

[theDoctorisIn]

Coattailing is the answer. Vast majority of protesters peaceful. Lots of families, actually.

Turning on Shattuck onto university.

Stopped to buy cigarettes, and the protest passed me by. Catching up down university, towards San Pablo

So, do they have their hands up or are they not breathing?

Or both?

Is that anywhere close to Trader Joes?

Where the farmers market is held?

Crowd yelling Pants Up - Don't Loot, or something like that
