Yes, and the radicals on both sides seem intent on escalating this mess. It could easily spin out of control.True...that has to be part of a solution but right now there can be no solution with out first stopping this escalation. It is no longer about racial justice.Yes coyote what you say is right on I also believe if authorities would crack down on cops killing unarmed blacks violence would be minimal Need to show black folks there's not 2 justice systems in America One for white one for blackThey need to kick all these outside groups out, enforce curfew and close down all protests for a week. Portland does not need armed outsider agitators.
Violence begets violence.
Who knows, maybe the elite want it to spin out of control.
And part of the problem is we have leadership that is escalating this. You can't be calling for "law and order" while simultaneously praising the interference of citizen militias or your armed supporters. Governors and Mayors have to start cracking down.
And here is what I don't understand - in cases where there is an imposted curfew...why does it seem like people are allowed to violate it...and the police just stand by? Disperse them all, and if they refuse, put them in jail overnight.
Why bother, the DA already said he won't do his job and prosecute them. The officers know that, so why waste their time doing all the paperwork?
