This break out was triggered in a Liberal city that has a Black police Chief, within a Democrat controlled state. Republicans had no role.
It is being spread by Democrat voters, tearing up & looting Democrat areas, controlled by Democrat law enforcement leaders, mayors, & city councils. Republicans have no role in this.
There are a few rare exceptions, but those are mostly under control, & have not seen near the level of looting & damage 95% of the Dem areas have. These rare locales do not displace the fact that this is Democrat voters angry at Democrat city leaders for poor policing. Republicans have no role in this.
Thus, this is a Democrat local, & state issue. It's not the federal governments' jurisdiction. President Trump cannot intervene without Congressional approval, which will not happen under a Democrat controlled Congress. Thus, Republicans have no role in this.
The local city & state Democrats own this, and must fix it....the Independent & moderate Democrat voters are watching them closely, & know that the Republicans have no role in this.
I can't see how any of this helps the Democrats in November, since the Republicans had no role in it.
Its up to Democrat voters in these large cities to hold their local Democrat leaders accountable for police brutality. The police work for the Democrat politicians.
I've been seeing a whole lot of white people in these demonstrations, and at night, a whole lot of small children, 10 years of age, they are all being used...and then the older Antifa comes in and destroys, breaks down the doors so the stores can be looted by the younger kids....
"primitive times...where bullies and violent actions will prevail"
Many will say those primitive times never ended. Police forces are using more and more military tactics and stocking up on military equipment. It just baffles me that people find it difficult to understand that all that is being asked is to be treated like your peers.
Here’s a shocking video of a poor white woman peacefully trying to defend her business and four black thugs beat her with a two by six huge board down to the ground. Not sure she is even alive.
Blacks beating and killing white innocent women — where’s the democrat outrage??!! Does anyone know if she lived??

I don't get Twitter either, and haven't seen that video. But I won't watch these violent videos including the one where Floyd is murdered. I don't know anyone who would condone someone beating anyone to death or even injuring them. Not sure what point you're trying to make here unless you think someone would actually condone such abhorrent behavior?
In Trenton they attacked a state building that processes unemployment benefits. Now people without jobs from covid will need to wait longer for money because of these thugs.

Every longer. Many unemployment offices have had issues processing the initial claims from three months ago. This is across the nation and not just red state or blue state... At least they are getting federal monies by now...
What a mess. I think to some degree, that law enforcement and the national guard are likely overwhelmed by the sheer number of people involved and are probably letting some of it just go due to fears that cracking down with violence would only fan the flames and bring more violence from the rioters.
What would be acceptable behavior? Taking a knee as a way of protest?
Sure, that’s acceptable. As long as it isn’t on your employer’s property, you are not protesting while in your role as the employee, and you are not engaging in a protest that half your employer’s customers don’t like.
I for example would not allow an employee of mine to wear a shirt either condemning or praising Trump while we went to a client meeting. Could anger the client and cost me business.
Autopsies don’t lie. Cop isn’t totally responsible for this criminal’s death. Perhaps he bares no responsibility. Further examination will bare more info. The guy said he had trouble breathing prior to being held down. Of course cops must believe everything a bad guy says, right?
They are mandated to render aid.
