I'm asking because it didn't appear that the guys in brown shirts who picked him up with the stretcher were EMT's.

For some unknown reason, EMTs there are dressed in uniforms that resemble sheriff deputy uniforms.

There was a little blurb about it, basically, "we're not cops, don't harm us".

I can't imagine why they would have uniforms like that that confuse the public.

In plain view of America. Beyond shame.

I didn’t see any law enforcement do it but they did hand him off to EMS.

Do you know what I'm talking about? Did they look like EMT's to you? Not only their uniform but the way they handled him just looked off to me.

But see, they put him in an ambulance but they handled him like they didn't know what they were doing. And they were wearing brown shirts. I've never seen any EMT anywhere in anything other than a white or blue shirt.

Did you see my response to you? There was a blurb in the news that that's what EMTs wear there.

Uniforms that look like sheriff deputies.

I missed it, Clara, thanks.

Man, did they handle him poorly for EMT's.

There are always white people in the "protests" RIOTS. The crowd at the White House last night was mainly "white". It's not a matter of skin color - it's a matter of Ideology and often brainwashing.

This isn't about George - it hasn't been about George since the first Liquor store was looted and the first building was burned.
