ANOTHER instance of police impeding journalists; this time violently

‘I’m getting shot’: Shocking video shows police in Louisville hitting journalists with pepper bullets

Watching America's slow motion train wreck is hideous.

 

[Father Heathen]

I've noticed our resident spin doctors and mental gymnasts have been more silent than usually lately.

They want to stoke racial tension so there will be a race war in USA or a political civil war type scenario ... but they have been having trouble getting it started. Americans don't get riled up very easily. We're pretty easy going so all the dirty tricks they usually pull in places like Afghanistan etc. aren't working. But they keep trying so it might happen. People should just stick together and not let the agent provocateurs goad them into irrational decisions.

 

[Secret Chief]

David Kaye, the UN special rapporteur on freedom of expression, said the reports of attacks on journalists were “appalling and must be condemned and perpetrators held accountable”.


I find it particularly shocking that this is happening in the US. Perhaps Americans aren't?

Just as shocking that nobody but the UN seems particularly shocked about this.
I would have expected there to be a much bigger outcry in Western media, but apparently journalists have become such willing tools of authoritarianism that they won't even cry out when their own are being targetted any more.

Transnational organisations that want to rule the world. They basically already do rule the world; but they want more control. It's hard to point the finger and say exactly who is behind it since there is a web of different organisations, front groups and secret societies. Basically they are extremely compartmentalized with localized hierarchies. It's a model of organisation geared towards maximum secrecy. They own or control everything from the top ... especially revolutionary groups, criminal organisations and have their agents in all political entities on earth. You should assume that all major intelligence agencies are infiltrated and controlled from the top. You should assume that all major terrorist organisations are on the payroll.

I've been making a lot of noise.
You don't have me on <ignore>, do you?

I haven't noticed any spin or gymnastics from you. Not lately.
Also, when it comes to cops and their bad behavior, you don't icklay their ootsbay.

Damning with faint praise, eh.
Some are less charitable.

Yep. Our BBC cameraman got bashed backwards by a charging cop with a shield. Quite obviously deliberate.

When people's nerves have been stretched way beyond reason their actions and reactions go wrong. Traumatised cops are going badly wrong now, I think.

That ain't an excuse but it sure might help some understanding. It's time for the country's leader to step in, step up, show some guts and show that he is is capable in adversity. I like to dream.
