Attorney General William P. Barr's Statement on Riots and Domestic Terrorism
Attorney General William P. Barr has issued the following statement:
“With the rioting that is occurring in many of our cities around the country, the voices of peaceful and legitimate protests have been hijacked by violent radical elements. Groups of outside radicals and agitators are exploiting the situation to pursue their own separate, violent, and extremist agenda.
It is time to stop watching the violence and to confront and stop it. The continued violence and destruction of property endangers the lives and livelihoods of others, and interferes with the rights of peaceful protestors, as well as all other citizens.
It also undercuts the urgent work that needs to be done – through constructive engagement between affected communities and law enforcement leaders – to address legitimate grievances. Preventing reconciliation and driving us apart is the goal of these radical groups, and we cannot let them succeed.
It is the responsibility of state and local leaders to ensure that adequate law enforcement resources, including the National Guard where necessary, are deployed on the streets to reestablish law and order. We saw this finally happen in Minneapolis last night, and it worked.
Federal law enforcement actions will be directed at apprehending and charging the violent radical agitators who have hijacked peaceful protest and are engaged in violations of federal law.
To identify criminal organizers and instigators, and to coordinate federal resources with our state and local partners, federal law enforcement is using our existing network of 56 regional FBI Joint Terrorism Task Forces (JTTF).
The violence instigated and carried out by Antifa and other similar groups in connection with the rioting is domestic terrorism and will be treated accordingly.”

I don’t think the behaviour of a load of idiots should detract from the fact that the human rights of black people in America are substandard. The behaviour of these arse holes shouldn’t detract from the bigger picture.
The people looting etc should be ashamed of themselves for undermining what is a great cause.
The Hennepin County Medical Examiner (ME) conducted Mr. Floyd’s autopsy on May 26, 2020. The full report of the ME is pending but the ME has made the following preliminary findings. The autopsy revealed no physical findings that support a diagnosis of traumatic asphyxia or strangulation. Mr. Floyd had underlying health conditions including coronary artery disease and hypertensive heart disease. The combined effects of Mr. Floyd being restrained by the police, his underlying health conditions and any potential intoxicants in his system likely contributed to his death.
What happened to that chap in Dallas went far beyond the “behaviour of an idiot”.
It was stone cold murder every bit as disgusting as the killing of George Floyd.
I’m hoping the poor fella hasn’t been killed and it’s social media getting ahead of itself, but it didn’t look good.
But, hey, either way, whatever the outcome, it is what it is.
It didn’t see that someone was killed,whoever did it deserves to be punished to the full extent of the law.
It doesn’t change the overall point of my post though does it?
Everyone in a country deserves equal rights, there is no arguing that black people get equal rights in the US currently.
Of course they deserve equal rights.
But running around the streets causing total anarchy, how the hell is that going to help their cause?
And it’s not a minority involved and it’s not just blacks either. Many whites, middle class whites too are involved. Multi millionaire Logan Paul involved last night. Looting a store.
Looting, arson, violence and now what appears to be a murder?
But, according to a certain left wing martyr of this board - it is what it is.
If protestors want to loot and do whatever the **** they like in retaliation to George Floyd then shit happens no matter that many more victims will die or be affected as a result.
It is what it is.
It’s a minority doing it though and it’ll become the major talking point because that’s what suits certain people.
These idiots deserve prison. It isn’t helping their cause it’s undermining it and certain sections of the media will pounce on it.
It’s still a minority doing it though, the majority of people seem to be peacefully protesting this.
^^^^ The Antifa extremists screwed it up for everybody, including the peaceful protestors.
Someone has too or more folk will die . To be fair there's no real hurt going on just pushing them with shields so they stand and move on , can't see anyone really being hurt in that incident , can't speak for others riots , folk involved, get hurt .
If Minnesota folk are that furious about thier rights and welfare take it out at the Ballot box .
That's just the tip of the iceberg:

There is no way to move on sitting kneeling or laying protesters except by manual handling. It often looks worse that it actually is.
When it is OTT it makes me wonder about the thought processes of the people doing it are, because just about everyone today walks around with a camera in his hand and not just a camera but a video camera.
You have to either be stupid to do bad shit or really think you are beyond punishment.
The whole justice system there is ****ed and always has been. You see how some of their courts operate and it’s terrifying.
I can’t imagine how hard it must be to be a black person growing up in America knowing so many people have it in for you. And it’s been going on since forever.
Have been reading to kill a mocking bird recently, it’s an amazing book but properly shows what the country is built on.
