Hey,I wonder if they actually drank the Bud Light or dumped it out on the ground in order to use the empty bottle,there could be another crime involved there.

There have been reports all over of police finding pre stashed caches of devices,they are using cell phone monitoring devices to track movements.

Why is it when peaceful demonstrators show up in Lansing they are immediately labeled terrorist.

When terrorist show up in our cities and start burning and looting they are called peaceful demonstrators?

Looting is not a legitimate form of protest - it's opportunism, plain and simple.

When the protest spread from Minneapolis to other cities around the US, it might not have been solely a George Floyd inspired protest but a chance for non-Minnesotans to also voice concerns over the local police in those other cities.

Exactly. And just like the protesters are voicing their concerns about racial injustice everywhere...

There are opportunists looking for the opportunity to loot and be entertained by rioting violence everywhere. Some of the rioters are protestors, some are not. But regardless, those that remain at night are there to observe, steal, or partake in the entertainment of rioting.

And even though there is some overlap, there is a distinction between the rioters and protestors. The difference is the latter wants positive change. The former couldnt care less.

Tonight's protests came to a relatively calm end thanks to a 16 year old kid. Let's make this the first step in a new direction.

Detroit curfew curbs violence

On Monday, the peaceful march all but ended at the onset of the city's 8 p.m. curfew, according to a team of Free Press reporters, who, as on other recent nights, followed the protesters step by step and even endured Saturday's tear gas and other projectiles.

By 9:30, downtown streets were mostly empty.

They were not labeled as terrorists. They were labeled as clowns.

They were not labeled as terrorists. They were labeled as clowns.

Below are Hillary Clinton's comments on the peaceful anti lockdown protestors in Lansing.

LANSING, Mich. — Hillary Clinton has weighed in on the armed anti-lockdown protests in Lansing, saying they should not be tolerated.
In a tweet on Friday, the former Secretary of State said that storming the capitol and disrupting the legislature is a feat of "domestic terrorism."

So what about her comments about the violent riots and protesters destroying things and killing people??? Crickets.............

Her Twitter simply complains about Trump and mocks him for tweeting "Law & Order".

It's almost impressive to be so disliked by the average person, Jesus I hate this woman.

Thousands of black men have been unjustly killed by police. Dozens of videos show a glimpse of how resisting arrest or even not resisting arrest leads to death by police. Yes, people are doing some foolish things and there is a weird mix of people doing it, but if they care about Flyod and others have the right to be upset. If they're just hot over quarantine and young, stupid people then don't use it as an excuse to break things.

Anti-lockdown folks have the right to be upset. I don't think they should be allowed to hang out in the legislature balcony with fully loaded semi-automatic weapons. No, that's one step away from a massacre.

This is exactly what I was referring to. Looting and burning and destroying people’s livelihood is ok if it for the cause? What does that have to do with justice. Not a goddam thing!

The protestors in Lansing were peaceful demonstrators and had every right to do what they did. Comparing them to a massacre is an Obamanation!

I just heard Duggan confirm that they've discovered white nationalists using counterfeit websites to impersonate Antifa.

Been up north in gaylord mi for the past two weeks, often you see confederate flags and Trump 2020 flags on the more rural homes when driving. Was shocked to see at least 10 people, mostly younger, standing at the town intersection with signs, peacefully protesting, for racial equality and restoring human dignity and equality for all...Very refreshing, had to beep. There is hope.

[DeLemur]

Think if those white rednecks with semi-automatic rifles were being killed on video like black men are. Yeah they would just be peaceful in response. You'd have another Oklahoma City Bombing. Those guys put their fingers on the trigger of their guns a few yards away from elected officials for closing non-essential businesses due to a virus.

When you're being killed and its been what 5 years since Travyon or Michael Brown or Eric Garnder or Walter Scott or ect....when do you do more than a peaceful protest? Something tells me that Wheels you don't care about George Flyod and the thousands killed by excessive police force. You care about the CVS pharmacy.

I don't get why people keep mentioning it's name.

Neither of those are as relevant as Tamir Rice.

[Gistok]

While other cities are being looted and burned... Detroit is trying to do the opposite.

This 16 year old kid... Stefan Perez... has been an unexpected leader in the local protests, and has the blessings of the Detroit Police and Mayor Duggan. He has motivated others to stay within the law during their protests... his story is now going viral... and putting Detroit into a positive light during these troubled times....

Propaganda : propaganda is information often inaccurate or biased:

"You care about the CVS pharmacy"...lol

You can't debate with a hypocrite...they stand for nothing and use words to extricate themselves from any situation. I know a thousand corporate guys like this, unfortunately. Only those with the highest personal values should be afforded the opportunity to learn to read and write...a philosopher once wrote ;; of course I'm paraphrasing a bit!

I latched a verbatim transcript for future reference.

2020.06.02 2:10:30PM Verbatim transcript of part of Mayor Mike Duggan's address on WWJ Newsradio 950AM:

We saw nationally a posting from Antifa calling for violence. And then the investigation showed it wasn't Antifa at all. It was a white supremacist group that faked the website to create animosity toward Antifa. These folks are trying to get us to tear at each other and to tear down our cities.
