By the way not saying your wrong.. just asking the question.. I may even agree with you.. People are easily triggered right now is all.

@l0wk3y

@freemo Well, they clearly deescalated it 😜 Again, the question is whether or not the actions they took to do so were warranted. I think not, but only in consideration to the person's age. They overestimated his strength, thus committing a potentially lethal flaw in dishing out the gentle shove.

Carrying him away or arresting him calmly and peacefully would've been a better move IMHO. Sort of glad they resigned. While it is one mistake, it was a potentially lethal one, and the tolerance for such mistakes should be low.

@l0wk3y sorry IDK how my reply got orphaned from the original thread smh

Can't wait for the next season of The Boondocks.
One thing that irritates me about NordVPN is that Chinese sites don't resolve when I'm connected. They work fine when I disconnect.

Re @GerberKawasaki @tesla (Formerly) mainstream media has systemic negative & political bias about almost everything. Reading major newspapers makes you feel sad & angry. That’s why they’re being crushed by @joerogan. Likes/retweets of old media are extremely low. Ironic article:nytimes.com/2020/05/25/opinion twitter.com/elonmusk/status/12 #Podcast #Tesla

Yes, I've been watching some anime. I highly suggest My Hero Academia >:3

@realcaseyrollins the Russian collusion thing was stupid, but on the other hand Trump never would have found himself faced with a special prosecutor if he hadn't gone on NBC nightly news and started saying that he fired Comey over the investigation.

> He didn't do anything. He was basically just standing there.

If you actually watch the video, you can see that he was approaching the officers as they are trying to enforce a perimeter, trying to get in their way. The additional video of him confronting other protesters as well as the detail of when this happens tells us two things:

1. He was there to cause trouble

2. The curfew had begun and the officers were merely enforcing it

Of course, whether or not the force they used was justified, or if this is part of some grand conspiracy is an entirely different story; the answer to both of these are no, I think. But it's important to look at this situation fairly.

@l0wk3y Tryna figure out at which point this becomes less believable or plausible than but I'm not seeing it
