If attendees had defended themselves against the BLM clad attackers the police would have stopped it.
I’m losing respect for Law enforcement if they stand by when anyone is assaulted.
My wife just told me about this.
Sickening. This has to stop. Now.
Cuccinelli, where are you?
PDJT, this goes beyond the pale.
Horrific, monstrous scumbag antifa blackbloc bastards.
We’re an army without generals. There is no opposition party to the progressive Democrat-corportist GOP alliance. POTUS is riding solo in The Swamp.
They should have disobeyed such an order. I’m just not real upset about the poor police. I think in a lot of cases they are part of the mob action, and just going through the motions of law enforcement. Fake law enforcement.
This Denver Back the Blue Rally is why you don’t support dirty cops like in Minneapolis. These Denver cops couldn’t have cared less had antifa snuffed out Michelle. It’s all about their pensions.
That’s not going to do you *any* good if you don’t take additional precautions.
Mask. Obscure your upper face too. Ideally wear a full-face motorcycle helmet with a tinted or mirrored visor if you anticipate potential hand to hand or something like a Guy Fawkes mask if you do not. This has NOTHING to do with COVID-19, though you can use that as an excuse for why you are wearing the face covering if you are questioned. If you don’t, all you’ve done is ensure the cops will be waiting for you at home when you return. Facial recognition computers are a thing, people, and they have the drivers’ license database to compare against. The cops may also ‘leak’ your ID to BLM/AF and let *them* deal with you while they stand around the doughnut shop looking appalled.
Glove up. Wipe your gear down. Don’t put fingerprints on anything.
Have your own body camera. Do not rely on anyone else’s. Basic body cameras are cheap. A better option would be for one that streams its recording to an online service so that the seizure or destruction of your camera doesn’t delete the evidence.
If you are going armed, use something with a quickly replaceable/discardable barrel and have spare barrels. A small file is a good idea, to take a couple swipes at the ejector and tip of the firing pin after discarding the barrel.
In many places, the cops are not your allies, the government will file charges against you even if they have clear evidence of self-defense (and will lose that evidence if they can) and they will attempt to ruin your life through extrajudicial means. Plan accordingly.
And thrown all the people fending off BLM/AF attackers in jail for unprovoked assault, attempted murder, etc.
"Hey, Officer Friendly, remember when the antifa was attacking you and we came out stood shoulder to shoulder with you? Remember how the antifa attacked us, and you just stepped aside and let them do it? Yeah, that was awesome. F you! I hope you're defunded, go broke, and die in a gutter."
I hope a few people open their eyes. Supporting the police and military doesn’t mean they support you.
OMG! Wow, this is really bad.
I can’t believe the police stood by and did nothing. I do believe they just, as officers of the state, did infringe upon Ms. Malkin’s First Amendment right to speak.
She should sue the venue and the cops; I know normally police are exempt from lawsuits but I wonder if some exception will be made or created, or if it already exists, for deliberate dereliction of duty. I’m not familiar with the law in that area.
Cuccinelli, where are you?
PDJT, this goes beyond the pale.
Where is the GOP? We need these local Democrats under Senate subpoena and explaining this lawlessness. Show the videos of antifa violence to the world. Then the GOP Senate needs to publicly supporting a federal response from POTUS.
Hardly anybody even knows there has been 50 days in a row of political violence in Portland due to media censorship. That has to change.
It’s not safe to speak freely in the “free rpeech” protests.
Armed security must go with such speakers.
And thrown all the people fending off BLM/AF attackers in jail for unprovoked assault, attempted murder, etc.
No, they’ll just shoot us like Weaver and Funicum. And “our” elected Reps won’t care one bit about it.
More specifically, this is why law enforcement must be required to have body cameras locked on through their entire shift. Their shift briefing and instructions MUST be recorded. Instructions may not be given through any non-recorded means. Period. Full stop.
The police must be held to higher standards. All those jackasses here who have posted about people needing to get “hickory showers” - how do you feel about it now that Michelle Malkin’s gotten one with police endorsement? Any tool you give the government can and often will be used against *you*.
The survivors will be jailed and charged.
The Senate GOP is largely a bunch of old people scared of how they will appear in the New York Times coverage if they do anything. They still think the NYT is the 900 pound gorilla of public opinion.
She may have been assaulted but brutally beaten? I have not seen any pics of her with missing teeth and black eyes. Not trying to minimize this but frequently “our” news sources are more interested in click than conveying truth
Sadly so many of the police today are making it harder and harder to try and stay supportive of them and many who still try are just going to give up and stop trying.
