Ahhh the beginning of the summer riot season?

The first link provided was to entirely the wrong incident. Not sure how i did that but my apologies.

Here is the correct info:

"Protesters call for accountability following release of Grand Rapids police shooting video"

Same old story.

In response to the shooting, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey instituted a moratorium on the request or execution of no-knock warrants in the city.

Well what do you know? I agree with a Democrat on something.

BLM Supporter Cocks Pistol, Threatens to Shoot Driver Trying to Pass Through Patrick Lyoya Protest in Grand Rapids



Black Lives Matter thugs on Saturday night were out protesting the officer-involved shooting of Patrick Lyoya, a black man who was fatally shot after violently resisting arrest last week.

As previously reported, various videos of the scene show Lyoya, 26, and another passenger being pulled over in a residential neighborhood.



The officer repeatedly tells Lyoya to “let go of the taser” – shortly after another struggle, the cop shoots Lyoya in the head.

Patrick Lyoya has a long criminal history that includes a conviction for assaulting a pregnant woman in Kentwood, Michigan.

It doesn’t matter that Lyoya resisted arrest and previously assaulted a pregnant woman, BLM is out demanding justice and threatening innocent drivers.

Far-left protesters blocked the street in Grand Rapids and threatened a driver with a gun.

One protester cocked his pistol and threatened to shoot a motorist who was trying to pass through the protest.



Other protesters who were trying to direct traffic, kicked the car and yelled at the motorist as he managed to drive away

That protester who pointed a cocked pistol at a driver should be identified and charged with assault.

That protester would have been shot for threatening my life!

The BLM racists are getting out for the midterm run up after a year of being put back in their glass case by their leftist democrat enablers.

^^^ If that's correct (and it sounds right to me, FWIW), then I don't think any shootings at BLM protests are going to work out legally or politically the way BLM idiots might think they will.

Cull the herd.

I dont think all of them are going to walk away quietly...
No matter who's around in an office ("D" or an "R"), those assholes are always going to make noise. It's all about the "shakedown".

Corrector Mindoro on not walking away quietly, it’s a way of life, con game from top to bottom as shown on tv.

Every time I see the news about robberies, carjackings, shootings, murders, smash & grab. The National news always show blacks. I don’t know if the National News has an agenda just on blacks or are blacks just this way. I’m in West Virginia and rarely ever see blacks. And I mean like never.

Ps. WV= 93.5 white…3.6 black.

BLM.......doesn't that stand for "Buying Lovely Mansions"?

Yeah, that’s what I mean. The impression I get is thievery/crooks. Seems blacks would be on tv mad about this. So many of them poor and their own stiffing them.

Man, cool your jets.

I bet the local authorities will get right on it …

Group damages northeast Portland businesses, PPB Precinct

https://katu.com/news/local/gr...s-ppb-north-precinct

PORTLAND, Ore. — A group of protesters marched through the streets of northeast Portland Saturday, damaging some buildings, bus shelters, and lighting a dumpster on fire at the Portland Police Bureau’s north precinct.

Based on social media posts, the group first gathered at North Portland’s Peninsula Park Saturday night in protest of the police killing of Patrick Lyoya in Michigan.

The group started marching through the streets at about 9 p.m.

According to police, some members of the group vandalized a coffee shop, two banks, and three bus shelters on Northeast MLK Jr. Boulevard.

The group eventually arrived at the PPB North Precinct on MLK Jr. Boulevard at Killingsworth Street, where police said “one or more suspects” set a dumpster on fire in the parking garage.

Officers unsuccessfully tried to put out the dumpster fire with fire extinguishers, and Portland Fire & Rescue was ultimately called to douse the flames.

“No arrests were immediately made, but the investigation is continuing,” Portland Police said. “If anyone has information about these crimes, including photos, video, or suspect information, please e-mail crimetips@portlandoregon.gov and reference case number 22-101241.”

^^^^
And what were these jackasses protesting? Who knows- it could be anything at this point. Portland is beyond saving at this point. More proof of leftist liberal policies and ideals FAILING.

^^ Y'know, some of the things they've protested about have been wacky enough that one might wonder whether the function of the protest was simply to keep protesters interested, active and in touch with each other.

Sadly, the leadership (for lack of a better term) of these leftist idiots, have come to realize they are free to act how they choose, and will face no real consequences. Imagine if every protest by BLM a was given the attention of January 6, there would be fewer and possibly no protests of this nature. These protests fit a narrative and work in some way for Democrats, or whoever controls that party.

The police shooting of a person in Grand Rapids Mi. https://www.kgw.com/article/ne...71-a15f-9d30213c8e16 . Here is the released video of the shooting but I cant guarantee it is the full lenght of the version that was released. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/u...ting-patri-rcna24239

Now we have a mass shooting in the NYC Subway, and two in South Carolina over the weekend.

Used to be the definition and reporting of "mass shootings" excluded gang/drug/criminal motives and focused only on crazy people with no other motive.

Now to further the gun control narrative the media is now reporting about shootings regardless of motive. That means all the drive-by shootings, gang fights outside nightclubs, gang fights at house parties, and the like are "mass shootings" now.

They always were mass shootings but the media didn't want to report about anything other than "crazy white man" mass shooters. Now it's more important for the media to support the "we need to get these guns off the street instead of prosecute the criminals" progressive DA's.

But the NYC shooter does appear to be crazy. Of course they are downplaying all of his "kill the whitey" postings on social media. And what happened to the guy that ran over the people in the parade? That story died out pretty quickly, no updates on it for a long time now.
