![]() Add Atlanta, Georgia to the list.
Protests turned chaotic in downtown Atlanta tonight, with some demonstrators defacing the CNN headquarters and others smashing police vehicles. Protesters threw objects at the CNN building while chanting “no more police” and “fuck CNN”. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...test-news-live https://twitter.com/hashtag/GeorgeFl...g_click&f=live https://twitter.com/search?q=%23Atla...d_click&f=live White House is under lockdown orders from the U.S. Secret Service.

![]() I feel like we may witness a massacre in a couple of days. The authorities won't hesitate to use lethal force.
Minneapolis earlier today: ![]() Last edited by Carlin; 05-29-2020 at 09:40 PM. |

In Minneapolis they tried to disperse protesters with tear gas and hold a line but after about 30 minutes they abandoned their positions and basically gave up on enforcing a curfew. They also charged the cop with 3rd degree murder and will probably charge the other cops with something like negligent homicide or accessory to murder. |

![]() I hope you are right.
3rd degree charge is a slap on the wrist. Imagine the mayhem if he is acquitted, or if others are not charged. Not sure what news to follow anymore tonight. Many demonstrations tonight due to the fact that it was only a 3rd degree charge. Up to 200 demonstrators have been arrested in Brooklyn. Georgia has called in NATIONAL GUARD after protests in Atlanta descend into chaos. A man has reportedly been shot in the face by riot police in Minneapolis. Minneapolis 5th precinct surrounded by protesters. Air National Guard has a blackhawk overhead. Pentagon on alert to go to Minneapolis, if required. 350 troops are swarming in on Minneapolis in the 5th precinct area clearing the streets and making way for the national guard. PS: 1st degree murder: premeditated/planned, 2nd degree murder: intentional but not planned, 3rd degree: an “accident”. Last edited by Carlin; 05-30-2020 at 06:12 AM. |

I would keep an eye on the southern states, I could see the police using violent force in some of those states. Anything can happen, all it takes is for one person to jump the gun and things can snowball quickly. |

![]() Minneapolis Police fires on MSNBC and CBS News crews with rubber bullets. No protesters anywhere near them.
REAL bullets in St Paul. #policestate #bananarepublic #trumpistan If these were Chinese or Russian police, the world would be losing its shit and calling for emergency UN meetings. Last edited by Carlin; 05-30-2020 at 11:22 PM. |
