Why post this on the Russian thread then? Hoping to convince yourself this is equivalent to Russian police beating people just for wanting fair elections?
Fair elections? Are you saying America has fair elections?
You're out of your league.
Americas have a choice between one self serving idiot and another. A choice not made by them.
In that video you see policemen trying to arrest a "protester". The guy has done something to get their attention. He was throwing things or looting. The policeman puts down his baton so he can use both hands. The thug picks tries to get the baton and probably got his fingers broken for trying.
For almost a week now every major city in America has had looters and thugs roaming the streets. Entrepreneurs already destitute due to Covid isolation mandates are having what little they have left destroyed by these "victim of oppression". Were you in America Max these people could come to your apartment block and loot everything around you and walk away. This is what would happen if anyone resisted
America needs to take lessons from Russia on dealing with this crap. It's gone way too far.
You have to remember there are two groups of protesters, the peaceful ones and those that are taking advantage of the situation to loot. I for one support the real peaceful protesters. Criminal justice reform is greatly needed and the fact we have the largest prison population even larger than China’s says a lot. I respect the Police and as an institution they should exist, but it’s also clear that they abuse their power and protect their own from accountability.
A step up from Russia where the only choice is the same self serving idiot of the past 2 decades.
I disagree. America is moving backwards, that is pretty clear to me. Tribalism, poverty, crime, drug use are all rampant. On my way to work this morning I stopped to get gas. I stepped out of my truck and looked down on the pavement and what did I see?
A needle.
It's only these last 3 or 4 years that I have seen such things on the streets of my town. The town where my daughters grew up and where one of them now have invested heavily in. I fear for my grandchildren. I fear for their future.
America is incapable of solving problems. It's our policies of government and corruption which are going to kill this nation.
