You are most welcome, friend.

Hoping and praying it can be fixed.

This is not living; it's not even existing.

Both my parents were teachers. My father is spinning in his grave and my mother is not far behind.

Let's hang onto hope, be unafraid, and know that God wins in the end.

Well, she OBVIOUSLY doesn’t know what actual justice is, how do you expect her, or any of the other liberal politicians to know either?

Mayor lightfoot (Chicago) was crying the same thing... and to think that a FORMER FEDERAL PROSECUTOR would know how the system actually works.... that whole “jury of your peers” and all...
But then ya need to ask yourself “why is she a FORMER prosecutor?”

Chaotic Scene Unfolds As Car Plows Through Trump Supporters In California, Multiple Injuries Reported; Driver Arrested

https://www.zerohedge.com/poli...ia-multiple-injuries

Several people were injured on Saturday after a car plowed through a group of Trump supporters who were counter-protesting a Black Lives Matter rally in Yorba Linda, California.

The driver raced down the street as people carrying Thin Blue Line and American flags chased her, only to be faced with a line of police cars. She then continued down the wrong side of the road for a stretch before being stopped and taken into custody.

CNN completely destroys the case against Kenosha officers. Now the information.is out there, we can all ignore it and continue rioting....

Lawyer says cop shot Jacob Blake after hearing a mother's desperate plea: 'He's got my kid. He's got my keys'

(CNN)Police Officer Rusten Sheskey has told investigators that it wasn't just his life he was defending when he fired his weapon seven times at Jacob Blake last month in Kenosha, Wisconsin. He said he used deadly force during the chaotic encounter because he was afraid Blake, while attempting to flee the scene, was trying to kidnap a child in the backseat of the vehicle.

"He's got my kid. He's got my keys," Sheskey heard a woman say, according to attorney Brendan Matthews, who is representing the officer. If Sheskey had allowed Blake to drive away and something happened to the child "the question would have been 'why didn't you do something?'" Matthews said.
That explanation, provided in an exclusive interview with CNN, offers the most detailed rationale to date for Sheskey's highly scrutinized decision to shoot Blake, who is Black, as he leaned into an SUV with his children inside it on August 23. Cellphone video of the shooting went viral on the internet, sparking days of protests and rioting in the lakeside city of Kenosha. The shooting, which Blake's family has said resulted in paralysis from his waist down, was widely condemned as yet another unjustified shooting of a Black person by police.

The attorney's comments to CNN come as authorities in Wisconsin announced this week that the results of an investigation by the state Department of Justice would soon be turned over to a retired police chief serving as an independent consultant for his review. The consultant is in turn expected to forward the case to local prosecutors along with an analysis intended to help determine whether criminal charges against Sheskey are warranted. The officer remains on paid administrative leave.

Matthews told CNN he typically does not talk about pending cases but said he felt compelled to provide some additional detail to counter what he described as an "incomplete, inaccurate" narrative that has emerged to date. Matthews directly disputed assertions by Blake's family and lawyers that he was unarmed and posed no threat to the officers.

At the time Sheskey opened fire, the lawyer said, Blake held a knife in his hand and twisted his body toward the officer. That action is not visible in the video widely circulating on the internet, in which the view of Blake's body is partially obscured by the driver's side door of the SUV.


Matthews said a second officer at the scene, whom he also represents, provided investigators with a similar account of Blake turning toward Sheskey with a knife in his hand immediately prior to the shooting. That officer said he too would have opened fire but did not have a clear angle, according to the lawyer.
Authorities have said Blake had a knife in his possession and the weapon was found on the floorboard of the vehicle. But they have released few other details of the incident, citing the ongoing investigation.

NYPD clash with BLM protesters standing among diners in Manhattan as Seattle descends into chaos and Portland erupts on the fourth night of Breonna Taylor unrest across the US

Chaotic scenes have been witnessed in some of the country's biggest cities on Saturday night

In New York, a peaceful protest turned to chaos after police closed in on Black Lives Matter supporters who had been standing on a sidewalk in the West Village, feet away from diners

In Louisville, despite a 9pm curfew, protesters were on the street into the small hours of the morning

The American flag was burned in scenes of violent unrest on the streets of Portland, Oregon

Up the coast, in Seattle, dumpsters were set alight in the Capitol Hill area of the city in scenes that have been repeated throughout the week

Two people were also struck by a car and injured on Saturday during a Southern California demonstration involving members of Black Lives Matter and counter-protesters near Los Angeles

That is some straight up WWF in the 1980s action right there. I love it!




“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

re XinTX video above,

the video isn't real clear, and the one guy is much bigger than the other, but that looks like a classic judo hip throw.

Does the big guy do a bow after the throw ?

How A Pledge To Dismantle The Minneapolis Police Collapsed


Councilor Andrew Johnson, one of the nine members who supported the pledge in June, said in an interview that he meant the words “in spirit,” not by the letter.

Another councilor, Phillipe Cunningham, said that the language in the pledge was “up for interpretation” and that even among council members soon after the promise was made, “it was very clear that most of us had interpreted that language differently.”

Lisa Bender, the council president, paused for 16 seconds when asked if the council’s statement had led to uncertainty at a pivotal moment for the city.

“I think our pledge created confusion in the community and in our wards,” she said.

The regrets formalize a retreat that has quietly played out in Minneapolis in the months since George Floyd was killed by the police and the ensuing national uproar over the treatment of Black Americans by law enforcement and the country at large. After a summer that challenged society’s commitment to racial equality and raised the prospect of sweeping political change, a cool autumn reality is settling in.

National polls show decreasing support for Black Lives Matter since a sea change of good will in June. In Minneapolis, the most far-reaching policy efforts meant to address police violence have all but collapsed.

How A Pledge To Dismantle The Minneapolis Police Collapsed


snip

So it's the old "You didn't like seriously think like we were really going to dismantle the police did you? We gave you like leventeen months to figure out that this was just a statement of solidarity and inclusion with the mostly peaceful demonstrators to make a point and we were totally not actually going to do it, right?" defense?

But he wasn’t killed by the police. He died of a fentanyl overdose. He happened to be in police custody at the time.

Stupid Car Tricks in Seattle With an Audience — Think Bowling Balls and Bowling Pins

a collection of videos w cars spinning around, and sometimes hitting people watching.

On Saturday night, without any seeming fear whatsoever that Seattle Police might arrive and break up the festivities, intersections in the city turned into mini-exhibit scenes for drivers to show off their little bag of car driving stunts, while onlookers laughed and cheered them on from 20 feet away.

Andy Ngo:

Another person got hit by a car outside the Seattle Space Needle. Drivers having been doing doughnuts on the road for an hour. No police

"Just another night in the second “Summer of Love” Adventure of 2020 under the stewardship of Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan."

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx


The videos from places like Seattle make you feel like you are watching Gotham in a Batman movie
