    Funny to see this. Saw a small group of people protesting at the Kerr county courthouse earlier this evening and was ecstatic. Most looked like Schreiner U students and you could tell they had been ou

Been a rough few days for the young mayor of Minneapolis...

 

Wait...   New information comes out and the Mayor acknowledges it and apologizes for the prior comment?

Not a lot of pigment in that crowd. And why are police running people over?

Eugene rioting is one of the most tone deaf things ever.  85% white with a large very liberal state college filled with privilege.

I need someone to give a play by play on this or post better video. Was he being threatened?  Was he just out hunting?  Did he shoot someone?  Did he get killed at the end?

nowhere near tall enough to be a moon tower 

Maybe it’s just for Abbott?

Not even close.  Austin is more than 5x the population and only 68% white.    Eugene is less than 2% African American.    Austin is over 8.

Here is a better angle. They beat the shit out of him and lit his car on fire. He also got arrested. Apparently he was antagonizing the protestors in SLC.

Between rona and these protests having commercial real estate is just not worth it.

Uh, the moon towers are 165 feet tall. That looks closer to 16.5 feet.

This is like when 23andMe told me I was 1/500 African and I was like "Oh HELL yeah."

Sounds like Austin is a real Rainbow Coalition.

 
Makes sense since the cops usually bring the violence

Some points on these tweets

- 5 is a really small sample size

- notwithstanding, 20 percent in protest against (alleged) racist police abuse against non-whites arrested found to have white supremacists sentiments is pretty damn huge

- data of arrests and incarcerated provided by law enforcement, the very entity at center of dispute

- no differentiating of instigators or subsequent actors 

- not sure if there's much significance between "majority" or critical mass of instigators, or if this was ever actually claimed

White guy looking to make things look bad and start some looting would not want to get arrested, but do as much damage as possible.   I can easily see where someone could break the glass out of a business, pry open the doors of a Target, then move on quickly.  Maybe down the block he tosses a molotov cocktail into the hardware store.  He's gone, long gone by the time the cops show up.  Who is there when the cops arrive to make arrests are locals who are committing burglary.  Notice how none of the arrests are for breaking and entering?   Because the fucker who did that is long gone.   Check out the vid in the tweet above to get the idea how it could go down.   

Therefore the arrest records could definitely be skewed to locals plundering, the instigators having fled already.  

Not saying plundering is good, nor arson, but to dismiss the idea of people from outside doing this shit because they weren't caught is pretty naive.

On the topic, though, we DO need to be extremely careful of this "outside agitators" line because it's a common one from the fascist perspective and it is often use to delegitimize organic unrest. As usual, you have to think of the source and what they mean in an honest way. Which isn't done on Twitter which is why people need to stop paying so much attention to Twitter for punditry/commentary.

We are seeing this unfold all over the country, and the outsiders aren't of one ilk,  but of several, from both sides of the spectrum, apparently.  Making hasty snap judgments on spotty records/data is dangerous.

I think we will see more to support this, but the 80% was a very ill advised shot in the dark.   From what I have seen some LEOs were tracking social media to get an idea what was headed their way, right?

This one idiot basically caused a short-fused situation into something the police deemed a riot, who then reacted predictably.

Yeah I am just fine staying in the suburbs and won't be an urban dweller anytime soon. 

Covid 19 and these riots are two great arguments for remaining out here in the burbs where I can socially distance very, very easily and don't rely on mass transit.
