What are they even protesting in any city at this time?

Los Angeles, Denver, New York City and Chicago have only their arrogance, lack of community and pyramid scheme economic structure to blame.

Why don't just admit they are fraustrated over high unemployment rates, high asset prices due to ZIRP policies and the federal reserve creating money out of thin air for elites.

Looks like another weekend of content people minding their own business in Chicago and NYC.

"....for refusing to address their demands to abolish DPD."

According to one of those sources, the riots are happening because they want the police abolished. This is a common theme in all of these riots. Somehow they have tied 'black lives' to getting rid of all policing.

A crackpot on the Denvier city council has proposed an unarmed peace force without the ability to make arrests. So....anything goes? Rape, murder, theft, harassment....no one to stop it, no one to make an arrest. Who thinks this is a good idea?

Ultimately, cities are not going to abolish police forces.

However, these anarchists will cause police to stand down, retire, and not even sign up to become police. So, since these ineffectual mayors and governors are allowing this to persist for an entire summer, the anarchists will get their way.

We need to stop referring to criminal thugs as protestors, and the Democrats need to put the lowlifes in jail and keep them there. At SOME point there needs to be a message that violent criminal behavior is not tolerated, even in Democrat-run cities.

Right...protesters who wear uniforms, have a flag, are tactically trained, carry shields, weapons, chemical agents, and an expressed ideology to destroy America through violence....a 'protester' just like the guy in tie dye with the "Give Peace a Chance" sign. No difference.

Great to see you bring up unlimited QE and pumped up asset prices as one of the reasons people are angry. We are seeing firsthand how 1% of the population can control the other 99% and there's seemingly nothing we can do but sit and watch to see what they have planned.

It's been this way for a long time though but it's only recently that their agenda has gotten so extreme that people are beginning to notice, from unlimited QE to normalizing sex among children (that viral show "cuties") to promoting rioting from people who's only form of oppression is being violent thugs with no work ethic, but on the other hand I don't blame them for not wanting to work given how poor today's jobs are wage-wise thanks to today's neocon inspired corporate socialist system where only the bottom line and stock prices and earning per share matter.

All the things they can be doing wrong, they are doing wrong lately. It may lead to the collapse of some western governments starting with the US. Their policies since the virus are utterly disgusting and self-serving. (The neocons and neolibs)

they showed on tv today, one guy just walked past Quiznos and just broke the windows. and kept walking. Just for fun or whatever, just to break things.


That criminal needs to be arrested but probably wont.



what did Quiznos do to that guy to deserve that? now the shop owner has to shell out $3,000 for new windows.
