I disagree. If the situation has deteriorated to the point where shooting is deemed necessary, use double ought buckshot. Either shoot to kill or don't shoot!
personally, I prefer that all law enforcement be done from a distance. Seal off the area, and allow no one to enter. Carefully check everyone who wants to leave. Allow those who appear safe to leave, but keep the violence inside. Let them run with it. When they tire out and settle down, give them brooms, scoop shovels, and wheelbarrows and let them clean up THEIR mess. Pay them minimum wage for ten hour days, six days a week until the job is done.
They don't work if there is nothing to divide the country. I'm middle class. I do not feel turned on.
They don't need something to divide the country, that's the point. They just invent something like they did here.
We have people demanding cops be fired with no due process, demanding they be prosecuted, jailed, even people talking about killing them. Then we have the firefighters. I was just reading comments and blogs the other night about how Firemen need to be targets too, since they stand with the cops & are obviously all racists. Then of course we have the racist teachers and the White supremacist system to represent. Here in St Paul, the same BLM group is demanding teachers be fired if they disagree with them. One teacher they wanted fired was because a group of Black girls had printed up t-shirts protesting domestic abuse and then had the jersey # of a teammate hurt by Mall of America security in a scuffle. The teacher mentioned that, that was not technically "domestic abuse". The Black girls turned on her, notified BLM and now that teacher has been transferred. These are all traditional middle class jobs that have come under fire under the new "hate the middle class" mentality being spread to the poor. Same thing where you now see the poor rooting for more "free trade deals" that send our jobs overseas, have crushed our unions & our manufacturing base. Same thing with the poor supporting illegal immigration that takes working class jobs and brings down wages. The divisive war on the middle and working classes is counter-intellectual, but very real.
And encourage speeding; especially in big 18 wheelers.

I agree, I do not mind people protesting on the freeway, as long as they do not mind getting ran over. if they are willing to take a chance in not getting ran over, then they should not complain when 1 or more of them do get run over.
Pretty remarkable of all those protestors to find the extra strength and extra time after a 12 hour day at work to stay out all night protesting and then go to work at 6am the next morning, take the kids to school, cook, clean, shop, care for their parents and volunteering their time to better the community.
Their bosses must be very understanding at their jobs...

Agreed, and since its too tough to police, speed limits during protest should be eliminated.
For the past few years I've been saying this. While everyone argues about gun control I've been saying we need to get a handle on the cultural issues that are going on in the inner cities.... sadly this will escalate.
If Trump get's elected (not a chance) things will get very out of control.
And if Clinton gets elected, what will you see happening with regards to "get a handle on the cultural issues that are going on in the inner cities.... "? Whatever that means.
Has anyone come forward and turned in the low life who threw chunks of concrete on the cops from the over pass?
