Georgia “protesters” track down police to their homes, firebomb vehicles

Yesterday we looked at the story of how the Blue Lives Matter website was probably going to be shut down because the idea of supporting the police and reporting on incidents of violence toward them was so “offensive” to certain people. Well, less than 24 hours later, the site is gone. Any links going to particular articles on the site redirect to a statement explaining why the site is “stepping back” to retool their operation, but they plan to return on a different platform in the near future.

That’s a shame, because they were covering a lot of stories that don’t get much oxygen in the mainstream press. Fortunately, I was able to cache one of those before they went dark. It’s a rather horrifying story that took place in Gwinnett County, Georgia. Three people, two of whom had previously been arrested and released at George Floyd protests, tracked down the identities and addresses of two police officers who were working at the protest sites. They then traveled to the officers’ homes and damaged or destroyed their squad cars by throwing Molotov cocktails at them. Thankfully, witness testimony and surveillance footage allowed the police to locate and arrest all three suspects.

Like I posted a few days ago, this is now a revolution. Anyone who refuses to see that is an idiot. Gone again. Bye.

Once again for those very slow witted individuals.... Individuals who do this sort of thing are NOT “protesters” by any measure. They are DOMESTIC TERRORISTS who should be hunted down and removed from being a threat to decent Society. There is no other way to deal with those animals.

Enough is enough!

Well In Pittsburgh all those arrested for violence, destruction etc. all charges were dropped. Every one. So no surprise criminals now think they’ve got a clear pathway to go after officers.

There’s a reason I never go to Pittsburgh City....

I heard a similar story early this morning on a local (southern Arizona) AM radio station. A cop’s home and personal verhicle were badly vandalized. It was reported that the cop didn’t ever take home a marked car, using only his personal verhicle to come and go, and there were no stickers or markings that would ID him as a LEO. He also wore civvies to and from, changing into uniform when he got to work. He’s married with several small children.

Same in St. Louis. The state AG commented about it.

“What other choice do they have?”

My advice to the LEOs is to don’t do anything in haste, think long-term about you and your family, and keep an eye open for possible adjustments to your career.

I think a lot of this anti-cop stuff will blow over.

I don’t get this. This was a web site? How does it get shutdown? I could see it if it was a face book page. there many truly offensive web pages that don’t get shut down. Did they not buy the Domain name? I don’t get if.

Eventually a child is gong to get killed by these evil and reckless terrorists and the narrative will change on a dime. Right now everyone is wrapped up in virtue signaling 'oh look at me, I'm not racist because i support them! Lets all kneel and apologize together! Let's grovel to show we're not privileged!'. Predictably, that only emboldens the mob.

Those people who are now enabling and emboldening the mob through their virtue signaling support will have blood on their hands when they go too far and kill a family. and they'll know it and if they don't they need to be shamed into knowing it. Then the public will start to realize just how tragically wrong it is to enable terrorists to show that you're a sweetheart.

BLM must be prosecuted under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO)and have the book thrown at them.

It’s not that hard to get info on anyone if someone wants to
make an effort.
Too many websites have info about people.

Welcome to the anarchists. They have been plaguing the NW for many years.
...........
There are at least two anarchist “researchers” that are outing law enforcement. Addresses, phone numbers, salaries, Facebook, email addresses, everything about them. And tracking them as they move from dept. to dept., get promotions, etc.
...........
Under the guide of open source, they submit freedom of info requests for personnel info, calling and radio call records, etc.

The owner of the domain was likely revealed and threatened.

Totally with you. Without doubt, it is a revolution, you can see it in the massive crowds. Our son who is in his mid forties, said that most of their friends who have always been on the more conservative side, have flipped and are completely in support of the protests and change. These are not millennials and are higher income earners, professionals.

I don’t see any way this can be stopped.

That is what I observed from watching videos and video clips of the riots. More of the public including Servicemen/ women and Police joined forces with them without suffering any repercussions. In fact, their superiors approved of their action[s].

Interestingly Toronto’s first black chief of police joined the protestors and did a knee gesture. He then announced he was retiring after 5 years as chief.
