Here are some of my photos from protests in Houston tonight.  The cops did their best to divide and disperse the crowd.  I saw a couple of arrests, but not sure the context.  I have never been in the

That'll be great when the overpass collapses due to heat stress.  

Probably not. Likely no direct flame impingement. That overpass is pretty high.

It burned for a long time. Took AFD forever to get there. 

AFD had to wait for APD to clear them to enter ... i.e. wait til it was deemed safe enough.

Why the fuck would anyone let high school kids go down there? I understand the sentiment, but that shit ain't safe. 

Oh I agree but having said that these kids are even look young and the cops specifically went at them. Fucking cowards shooting at kids

Police should just be showing the rioters with water. Don’t even need a lot of Psi. The threat of ruining their cell phone will be enough to send many home. 

Cell phones have ruined the fun of spontaneous water ballon fights or shoving somebody in a pool.

Sorry parents have faith in cops to act appropriately.

It can be the thread for making jokes about sexing a woman hit with a rubber billet though, right?  Sometime I get confused as to what is frowned upon or actively encouraged. 

Rule #2 of surly. Boner jokes are not only tolerated in every thread, but encouraged. 

You can't hold the whole site responsible for the behavior of a few, sick perverted individuals like myself. For if you do, then shouldn't we blame the whole thread? And if the whole thread is guilty, then isn't this an indictment of all of Surly? I put it to you, WulawHorn, isn't this an indictment of our entire American society? Well, you can do what you you want to us, but we're not going to sit here and listen to you badmouth the United States of America

The Feds need to apply RICO to Antifa over these riots. I'd love to see several hundred Antifa members each facing decades of prison time. Then squeeze them to find out who they are coordinating with and apply RICO to those people as well.

Who taught you how RICO works?  I picture you like George Bluth, "I have the worst fucking lawyers."  

 

Anyway, 2L aside...I've been disappointed in the signage brought to the protests by most of these folks.  Nothing clever, nothing impactful, nothing pithy.  Cut right to the heart of the police souls.  It doesn't roll off the tongue, but then you just need to read it, not hear it:

"MPD:  Your Children Are Being Raised by Cowards."

You can tell it's Austin:   People are mostly leaving the homeless folks' tens alone.

Then again, wouldn't want to go anywhere near those things.  And people are riding scooters around.

The KVUE reporter is cute behind her mask and helmet.

Edit: And people are doing fucking selfies in front of the graffiti.

I know you exactly how it works.  There are plenty of Rico predicates.  These loser assholes are part of criminal conspiracy and organization despite living in their parent’s basement.

HAHAH, KVUE's camera was focused on a column that said "FUCK APD"

Meanwhile, Dallas PD is just randomly pot-shotting folks with rubber bullets.  Great way to get the people behind you.

 

 

Well we might have just all witnessed a murder. Clear the fucking streets now. Peaceful protest this is not.

Maybe I missed it, but all I saw there was some cops driving by and people hiding from them...

This isn't the thread for your hot takes on police unions, antifa, and anita.

There's a thread for that @Trey3216

Not trying to be the proverbial snowflake, but are above posts by Johnny cool? If so, are replies cool?

 I went to a "black" barber shop today in Austin and they were hardly talking about what was going on....  I don't know if that was b/c the white guy walked in.
I think most of the riots are from unemployment,unrest of being at home, Anita and other Anarchy factions..

I tend to agree here in some part, the current situation has disproportionately affected minorites and the poor.

Mob in downtown Dallas has evidently beaten someone to death.
Because he was white.
Just saw the video in Twitter.

He’s still alive. Appears he was a businessowner or something, trying to drive people away with his sword/machete. Didn’t work. It was a quick attack involving 6-10 people, hopefully the vid quality is good enough to get them all identified & arrested.

I am starting to get very pessimistic. How all these protests that have been relatively peaceful all day Countrywide,  (with some exceptions), all managed to turn violent in the last 2-2.5 hours?

 

yesterday eve in Austin was mild. It resulted in 2-3 hours after midnight of younger people being stupid, but they werent being progressively violent.  now, we have idiots setting fires in multiple areas. 

This is starting to look more and more like there is overall outside purposeful planning in place countrywide.
