Not sure why the young guy rolled up the window when the officer approached him. His windows were tinted so it did look a bit suspicious, even worse when he was asked to jump out of the car and started rolling the window up again, but I don't think he should have been cuffed for that. What happened with the older guy, though, was messed up. Since when does one get arrested for temporarily blocking the road with a vehicle? Worst case scenario they should have just given him a ticket, not arrest and pepper spray him FFS.

Antifa in Portland have set the downtown Apple store building on fire. There was security staff there. The business had only recently reopened following months of nightly rioting. The store also turned itself into a BLM memorial.

The current conditions tonight outside the Brooklyn Center Police Department: protestors with a severed pig’s head on a pole. They’ve continued to gather outside the PD for the fourth night in a row since Daunte Wright’s killing.

Cops already shooting rubber bullets. Seems like a much faster escalation than previous nights and a bigger crowd.

(CNN reporter and his crew were violently chased away from the protest in Brooklyn Center, Minn.)

These are the good protests though. No problem. They can do whatever they want.

Yep, it's only starting.

- Police say incident does "not appear to be terror related"

The suspected US Capitol attacker is Noah Green. He posted frequently on social media about his support for Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan.

If he was a Trump supporter it would be terrorism I imagine.

The suspect in a series of shootings Tuesday that left eight people dead, six of them Asian women, at Atlanta area Asian spas indicated to authorities he had issues with “sex addiction,” according to investigators. They also say 21-year-old Robert Aaron Long told them he wanted to eliminate the temptation.

“He apparently has an issue, what he considers a sex addiction, and sees these locations as something that allows him to go to these places, and it’s a temptation for him that he wanted to eliminate,” Cherokee County sheriff’s Capt. Jay Baker told reporters.
