Philly apologized :

The city's mayor and police commissioner each apologized.
Philly police apologize for use of tear gasPhiladelphia Police Commissioner Danielle Outlaw authorized the use of tear gas and pepper spray on protesters earlier this month and has since declared a moratorium on tear gas for crowd control.

They blocked a main artery (Vine Street Expressway) and trapped a State Trooper's car with intent to harm him . They should have been tear gassed. The mayor is a left wing POS

There is a visceral demand from certain citizens that other Americans, whom they don't view as real Americans are deserving of facing and enduring state or vigilante violence in defense of maintaining real America. It is a very sick world view.

Imagine celebrating unnecessary state violence against your fellow Americans..... Again for too many Americans, their political ideology is to be against other Americans, and they want those people under state control and violence. Its really what's at the heart of the political identity of so many Americans. It is poison.
Yeah I know some Americans think protestors should face violence from the state, that was my point.

None of this stuff holds up to scrutiny unless one has convinced themselves that these “protests” truly are peaceful and well-intentioned.

A lot of them are not. And there’s enough mob looting, property damage and generally making innocent people feel unsafe in their homes and on the streets that it’s becoming a real problem. And those people are not being unreasonable in wanting the police to get a handle on the situation rather than bow to mob rule.

Pulling out a weapon to defend your family and your home when hundreds of idiots you don’t know break into your community to inflict punishment for their perceived suffering is not unreasonable either. Neither is a police response to the same. If they’re allowed to respond.

Luckily, I don't agree with nor care what you think about the protests intentions, but again the reality is a lot of Americans see protest by certain Americans as inherently violent and criminal and they wan't them treated as such. They want to see those people hurt and dominated by the state or vigilantes. Hence why threads like this one exist.

No. I promise you that it would be absolutely fine with everyone if leftists of all colors were merely marching down public streets yelling and chanting while holding signs. That's not what's been happening across the country. It's just not reality.

I don't think think respect of the other side's protest should ever be a mandatory thing. We're talking more about tolerance here. If the right were calling for a police response to truly peaceful protesting it would be a problem.

So the president calling Kaep a SOB and calling for everyone that knelt to be fired and their careers ended wasn’t a problem? The right is calling for a police response to peaceful protests currently. You are just buying the right wing spin that all protests are violent.

First Amendment rights apply to the President, too.

And you are obliviously ignoring the violence.

I guarantee you I don't care what you are fine with concerning these protests. What I am saying is protests by certain groups of Americans are always seen as violent and criminal. And for a lot of Americans they want to see those people dominated under state or vigilante violence. This is why this thread exists.

Yes that's totally the same as burning down churches and violently attacking police and innocent civilians.
SMH.
