On Friday, Delgado maintained their original statement was accurate as it relates to the Park Police: “no tear gas was used by USPP officers.” US Park Police used only those non-lethal weapons as law enforcement forcibly pushed peaceful protesters away from the White House. In fact, he said — as he has before — that his agency doesn’t carry tear gases known as CN, even though canisters of all of them were found on the scene. As for CS, the agency doesn’t carry the specific type found on the Square, but it does carry CS in general.
This does not confirm that the USPP used CS.
WUSA showed cannisters labeled OC & CS, which they reportedly collected at 17th & I St.

You are tone deaf. And so are millions of your fellow Americans. This is sending a HORRIBLE message, and I have no clue why this is so difficult to understand the message you are sending with this nonsense.

Here's what BLM is about, in their own words:

Black Lives Matter Foundation, Inc is a global organization in the US, UK, and Canada, whose mission is to eradicate white supremacy and build local power to intervene in violence inflicted on Black communities by the state and vigilantes.

So no, they aren't going to get involved when a black officer gets shot in the line of duty. That's not what this NGO does.

Why is this so hard to understand, Pete? They're also not going to rescue stray dogs, fundraise to fight Cancer, or do anything whatsoever about clean water.

And yet why is this the ONLY organization that you and your team complains about in this manner? That's what I'd like to know.

You go to fundraisers yes? Do you go to a Children's Hospital Fundraiser, and berate everyone there, asking them what they're doing about Homelessness? I mean: what's wrong with them? Don't they care about homelessness? What a bunch of freaking hypocrites, right??? :roll:

What the protestors are asking for it to be listened to and for the rest of America to take action to fix the damn problem. And if you are pointing out all this other stuff you are not listening - you are changing the subject. And you wonder why they keep protesting...

Anytime someone can draw a clear distinction of anyone's hypocrisy, it does two things that helps the world: it helps the offender realize how he can improve his game, and it helps others who watch his game become that much more suspicious next time he plays.
Great suggestion Peter Brown. Let's help the world a little bit.

Let's help you realize your own hypocrisy and hope you will improve your game (fat chance). And let's also remind all others on here of who you really are.

Peter Brown is the guy who, after viewing the 9 minutes of video, says that the cop's knee didn't kill the victim.

“The preliminary autopsy was just released right now, and the results suggest that the deceased died of causes unrelated to the cop's knee.”

“You are wrong here. The cop did not torture the guy 'to death'. He died of other causes,”

Boycott stupid. If you ignore the gator troll, eventually he'll just go back under his bridge.

And that 75 year old guy forgot to tie his shoes. Police had nothing to do with him falling. For all we know, it was a strong breeze.

I might be tone deaf but I'm not completely deaf.

Are you.

What do you want Dead Cops! when do you want it NOW! sounds benign to me.

I have no illusions that BLM will ever care if a cop is killed.

I'm more concerned that my fellow lax lovers on this forum might. Apparently they don't.

One hilarious part about Pete and his ilk is: They don't have anyone smart enough on their team anymore to recognize what a huge opportunity is sitting right in front of their nose.

What I mean is: some on Minneapolis' City Council are talking about dissolving the Minneapolis PD. What does FoxNation hear? They think that they're going to simply get rid of policing.

Nope. They're talking about ending their contract with the Police Union. Union busting, FFS. And starting from scratch. Fox Nation should be OVERJOYED to hear something like this. What do they do instead? Piddle away this massive, landmark opportunity so they can whine about looting.

The entire 57 member Buffalo PD Emergency Response Team has resigned in support of the two suspended officers. To clarify, they have resigned from the ERT, not the police department.

Apparently they believe pushing a 75 yo man to a head cracking Is OK.

"What the protestors are asking for it to be listened to and for the rest of America to take action to fix the damn problem"

I think any rational person in America understands what the protesters are asking for. My question to all would be what are the parameters being established so we know the problem is being fixed? Our fearless leaders can't agree on comprehensive immigration reform. Everybody in DC keeps shouting from the top of the mountain that is what they want to do. Does this wind up becoming just another problem in our country that the politicians can yammer about while trying to get elected? I bet you the same steak dinner a Fan does that that is what it will become. This is nothing more than campaign fodder for one more problem in the country that has to be fixed. I think we all understand how good of a job the folks in DC do when they want to "fix" something. :roll:

Yep. The people who want to do anything but discuss the actual problems that led to this entire mess.

It's right there for both of you. Democrats run the city council in Minneapolis. Dem appointed police chief. Unionized Police Force.

All sitting there, ready for you to demand they fix the problems...or better still, offer solutions. Your team could win over so many voters by fixing these problems. I have no idea why it's so difficult to see that.

Cool. I am all in if we can eliminate all unions for government employees. They already have civil service protections as well as the courts and EEOC. Bureaucrats, teachers, fire, police..... you can notify them, a fan. PM me when you get out of the hospital.

Fifty years of democrat rule in Minneapolis. A black Police chief and a black Attorney general. Hows my team gonna fix this problem.

Hows my team gonna fix the mayor of NYC and los Angeles. Hows my team gonna fix the governor of NY, California, Illinois, Michigan or NJ.

Tried to fix 5 decades of democrat failure by electing Trump.
