I wouldn’t take a knee to BLM at gunpoint.
There’s another word for this: Extortion. Anytime someone coerces or forces you to do something, in exchange for your ceasing violence, that’s you submitting to a threat. Self-respecting cops didn’t play along. The spineless cops said OK.
It’s a show!
Jesus. They only did it so the cop could take a photo of it. This is pure copaganda
Is that a knee for solidarity or a reenactment of how George Floyd died? I just want to calibrate my emotions correctly. Keep this propaganda off our timelines BlackLivesMatter
This is just embarrassing.
Thank you for sharing this moment. It was very organic and heartfelt. We handle and facilitate hundreds of protests each year and fully support the right to protest peacefully. This was not a political statement but a moment of empathy to support peaceful protesters.
old trick ....used before in Cairo when the demonstrations were about to eat them
Police propaganda
Fucking photo op Don't get fooled
Cool. Now can you show the videos of them beating people, shooting people, tear gassing people, taunting people, and boxing people in while they peacefully protest? Thanks🙃
Not degrading this but the human behavior is no different than the mammalian behaviors. Animals in our wild kingdom put their heads down or turn or make no eye contact or get into submissive positions to ward off dominant animals.
P R O P A G A N D A!!! 🤡 ACAB
Don’t be fooled. These are tactics to placate us. These swine have no qualms attacking folks immediately after. There is no such thing as a good cop.
Where's Kaepernick7 ? 🤔
thank you so much for all the hard work to keep protecting us . all of us know that not all cops are bad.
I've never seen the LAPD bow to anyone let alone looters. Do they think they'll get them to respect cops now? Do you? They need to start massively handcuffing these people to bike racks in mass and arrest them later. Leave the freak show to the Hollywood pukes.
Too bad it didn’t last more then a few hours before the evil trouble makers came out.
what a farce
Yeah, fuck this. They'll gas y'all in a minute.
