If these Melbourne cops shot him in the back while he was complying that would be a different story. |

The pallets of bricks that mysteriously appeared in the streets were just peacefully migrating. Nothing suspicious there. No, non, nein! Nothing staged or planned with these riots. But if you happen to notice any of this, just shut your racist face you conspiracy theorist…

UK police seem to be able to bring someone down without resorting to the use of firearms, most don't have any. I think the cops have been watching to many Yank movies myself.

It won't always stop the hand with the knife from moving. Especially if they are iced up to the gills. As for the american cop, apparently the knee in the neck tactic was outlawed years ago. So what he was doing was not an approved tactic. |

Wonder why they didn't do that with the Bourke St car killer considering they followed him all day into the heart of the city and did nothing.

They did make a whole host of errors though. The softly softly approach they were trying to use was a waste of time. Sometimes in those situations you need to hit hard and fast and neutralize the threat, but their recent weak policing tactics didn't allow for it. And they paid the price. But it's easy saying that in hindsight. They would have had no idea what he was about to do. |

On the Minneapolis riots the citizens were told during the curfew they are still allowed to be outside their own house as long as they stay on their own property. Some police don't care about that and would rather show their authority https://streamable.com/u2jzoo |

ABC News radio this morning interviewed the guy that wrote the Antifa handbook. He said its not a club, it doesnt have membership, it is just an idea. People form groups based on the idea. He did also say sometimes people can get violent to push the idea. The NYT description seems noble, so why are they calling them terrorists? I don't get it. |

Too right they need to be retrained, but until they get it they'll just keep using the tools they've got

The USA has had serious issues with Antifa in the past few years, they try shut down any viewpoints or opinions they don't agree with through large scale violence. |

I can't fathom what that family is going through. He had a kid? Imagine growing up knowing that's how dad died? Camera's on him, several male officers around, guy saying he is suffocating, held down for almost 10 minutes in that position, lifeless for 3 minutes of that. What the hell were they thinking?

What I can’t understand is the actions taken by the ambulance crew, got out, no equipment, no checks, no attempted revival, hell even the way they rolled him into the board isn’t even at the level you would expect at a local sports club. I fully support those who wish to protest this or any other issue and hope the message isn’t lost thanks to the Antifa plants stirring up conflict. |

White people are killed by blacks all over the world on a regular basis. Crickets chirp. MSM will not report on it because it does not fit their Marxist agenda. Black persons, usually those caught committing crimes, are killed and it's an excuse to riot. Suddenly it's 'racist'...

If that's the case my goodness what the hell is wrong with people? I sometimes wonder how people can be so far gone that they lose their sence of humanity along the way? YouTube is loaded with clips from the 'States of power tripping authority figures over reacting in the name of national security / personal safety / the good of the people. TSA searches that make people wait so long so they miss their plane, over use of police powers, purposeful manipulation of situations to then justify an overreaction, excessive use of force. Didn't any of the watching cops think to themselves to tap the guy on the shoulder and say 'mate, I think you've done enough, lets sit him up and end this with dignity for all'. I can't fathom the hatred and anger in a person that will pin a man down by the neck like a rabid animal till they are well and truly dead. Nor the inaction of the onlookers that had the power to stop the madness. Not the first, won't be the last.

I have watched a significant amount of coverage over the past week and I just can't believe what I'm seeing.
I think that it is being used as an outlet for angry people ****ed off about just about anything. The effects of the pandemic on health and economy no doubt not helping. There are people definitely delibrately inflaming the situation for their agendas so please don't pretend it is one fringe of the political spectrum. They are both doing it. I'm worried that if you dig below the surface just a bit we're not far off from **** kicking off here. Probably not as bad but bad enough. |

Why are we getting so upset about the American police killing 'black' people in America??
We live in Australia. Not America. Start looking in our own backyard, and the Australian police. There have been 432 'black' deaths by the Australian police since the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custodyin ended in 1991. There have been at least five deaths since August 2019, two of which have resulted in murder charges being laid. One of the murders was of a 29 year old mother in September last year. That is 14 'black' Australian people killed in police custody by the Australian police force per year since 1991. Where is the big media coverage of these cases? Where are the riots? Please don't get so upset over what is happening on the other side of the world. Get upset at what is happening in your own backyard. |

This is why I'm worried as what is happening over there is already being contrasted to what happens here. It has been gaining increasing attention in the last few days.
I think they are already planning protests which I have no issue with so long as you're not harming others but in the middle of a pandemic probably not a good idea. But they could gain significant support on the back of what is happening in the US. Protests generally start out peaceful but as we seen can turn to **** real quick. |

https://www.foxnews.com/media/antifa...wing-extremism Yes, I'm aware its a Fox News article - the poor guy has been assaulted multiple times by them covering protests, he's been beaten, copped pepper spray, hit with milkshakes and had his skull cracked in separate incidents, funny how they pick the gay Asian dude to punch up all the time when the left is supposed to be LGBTQIA+ and diversity friendly |

I'm sure the idea that started Antifa was all good intentions, problem is it attracted all the left wing extremists who are just a different type of fascists to the right wing fascists they hate.
Antifa brutally beat minorities that disagree with them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cI2EHMy1lgs |
