That's their job. #AbolishPolice

Ma'am with all due respect, I know this isn't your first day here.

This is who they've always been. How many times do they have to show you before you get it? I understand you've lived a privileged, sheltered life, but holy crap, have you not been paying attention at ALL the past few years, now that everyone has a camera and means to broadcast?

where the hell have you been this isn't new

Protest all you want, but when you start burning down communities you deserve to get punched in the mouth. Many of the people that live here support your cause and you are hurting them.

welcome to america

Because Republican and Democratic Administrations have been arming police with military weapons for DECADES as if they were to be an occupying military force. Then there's who police forces recruit: Cowards, mostly. Unarmed protesters are the only people they'll stand up to.

Police protect the criminals in power NOT THE INNOCENT PUBLIC.

(see previous reply) I lived in Tampa Bay at the time: witnessed newspaper terror fear mongering & jets screeching first hand. w/Killer Cops, School Children Sacrifice, Caging of Children, OUR mercenaries still torture , OUR fascist boot stomp only worse. ceasefire/gather/share❤️
