LONDON PROTESTS TURN VIOLENT - LIVE TWEETING HERE NewLondonTimes VIDEOS

NOW DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT Chief Myers!

LIVE TWEETING HERE - VIDEOS LONDON PROTESTS TURN VIOLENT NewLondonTimes

This guy is an idiot! And he selling it to anyone who’s willing to buy it. The whole idea behind a protest is to say something to make change. In NW Arkansas the officer’s have kneeled down with citizens. And lead a chant of, Racism Stop’s With Me. ❤️🤍💙

I'm not against protesters, I'm against rioters, I'm not against the police, I'm against the abuse of power, we don't want violence, we want to be listened. WE WANT JUSTICE! Justice

So what's the difference between these guys and the ones battering peaceful protesters? Are the others just shit humans or have they been trained differently ? Genuine question

Cuck... he was just arresting people for trying to open up their businesses, but he'll bend over for this? AllLivesMatter

I might not be the same But that's not important No freedom 'til we're equal Damn right I support it COPY AND PASTE TO SPREAD THIS WORDS

Putting on a show. He will be shooting the protesters later.

I might not be the same But that's not important No freedom 'til we're equal Damn right I support it

Trump must Kneel...

Pussy

Loveeeeeeeeeet

For all the oppressed....

Yes Healing GeorgeFloyd Peace

Black people account for 52% of total homicides despite only making up 13% of the population. Twice as many white people are killed by police each year on average. Unfortunately, the statistics are perfectly proportional...

THERoyalCrabbit But why would you take a pet or a child to a protest where there is any chance of violence?

'If you have a critique for our resistance, then you better have an established record of critique of our oppression. If you have no interest in equal rights for black people, then do not make suggestions to those who do. Sit down.” – Jesse Williams Humanitarian Award Recipient

George Clooney Calls Racism a Pandemic in Essay About George FloydIn a powerful, new essay, George Clooney is showing his support for the black community and addresses anti-black racism in America: 'This is our pandemic. It infects all of us, and in 400 years we've yet to find a vaccine.' I thought he died. Huh There is no vaccine. Racism will ALWAYS be there much like rapist and pedophiles. But we MUST make sure racist are not in position of power like cops etc... Becoming a cop should be much harder and firing much easier. But unions stop that from happening. Under Obama, many blacks died, but you were silent. Today, Democrats, like Republicans, come to power through war. You all need power not for the sake of the people. No more America, you are all destroying it leading to civil wlane. You allow Russia and China to destroy America
