That’s what’s apparently going on there

“ They pulled up onto the square with a police siren on and did this.”

And then uniform cops protected them

And more cops, armed, daring anyone to stop them.

But, but, but....

The tag is visible on that privately owned vehicle.

Just saying.

Probably off duty cops in the truck. Faces covered.

What about this guy apparently who made a wrong turn going home after work?

Cops couldn’t have talked with him and redirected him?

@louisvillemayor
: "Interspersed with that water & milk, were other materials that were in mason jars for flammable material, other materials that cannot be identified yet that could have been used to be harmful to other protesters, also been used to be harmful to law enforcement.



I don’t know about you but *I* always throw potential flammable material on concrete or a truck bed from 10ft away
