So about those mayors that we all thought were pretty socially enlightened guys. Is it that they were lying the whole time, or that they themselves are scared and are basically incapable of controlling their police forces? Trying to figure this one out.
Wait. We saw a video of your cops beating up people on Fairfax today. Do you think your tweet will distract from that? The action we want from you is that you stop letting your cops beat up innocent protesters.
Tonight the NYPD hit a protester walking his bike and journalist @macfathom (also with a bike) with batons, knocking him over twice, completely unprovoked. The hoarse voice screaming “he’s press” is me
You talk as though regular citizens don’t get to have a say in what happens in this country. That’s how we got where we are. You don’t have to be a policeman to have a say in how they police us.
We don’t actually know that. I’m pretty confident the people in Buffalo are going to remain on this issue. It’s been all over the news and you could see on the video how upset people were. I can’t imagine there won’t be a lot of pressure.
GOOD!!! This is why it’s so important that people video these things, and that we make a lot of noise when we see them. I would prefer more than a “suspension,” but at least the attention is on it now.
BREAKING: Buffalo Police Commissioner Byron Lockwood has ordered the suspension of both officers involved in viral video in Niagara Square tonight @wkbw

Just in case anyone out there might be even for a second confused about this, let’s remember that soldiers at war are trained to destroy an enemy while domestic police theoretically are trained to serve and protect our citizens.

If we spent a fraction as much money lifting people up from their despair as we spend keeping them down when they act out their despair, we’d have a chance at a peaceful world.washingtonpost.com/business/…
