BREAKING: Protest Turns Violent After Cops Shoot Man Armed with Knife in Philadelphia

I see many 60" flat screen reparations were procured.

Flat screens are soooo last weeks peaceful gatherings. This weeks prize includes washing machines. Remember to bring a set of hand-trucks to the nearest peaceful protest near you!

You'll not get me to disagree about kops being freeloaders, however...........

It's not the kops who are looting/stealing.

Unless you consider civil asset forfeiture, car impounds, etc.

Laws that prevent private businesses from protecting their property with deadly force are largely to blame.

Or even force in general, really. Government is a monopoly on the use of force, remember. But should those laws change, property defence equipment could be the next gold mine:

...Along with your gun turrets, of course.
 
And just like most all of these "didndonuffin, my son is a saint" riot starters .....
But new reports detail that aside from Wallace having posed an active, deadly threat when officers fired on him – it also turns out that Wallace has a history of being violent and threatening to kill people.

In recently uncovered documents related to the deceased 27-year-old Wallace’s criminal history, we’re now able to get a better understanding that Wallace had a pattern of violent behavior against others.

And apparently Wallace was an “aspiring rapper” that wrote songs related to such wonderful subjects as shooting people – including police officers.

Now, while music that glorifies or mentions violent acts doesn’t always translate to the artists committing violent acts, it’s certainly worthy of speculation when an artist is a violent individual that produces music that’s allegorical of their criminal and violent exploits.

Back in 2017, Wallace reportedly pleaded guilty to robbery, assault and possessing an instrument of crime.

In that case specifically, authorities say that Wallace kicked in a woman’s front door and placed a gun to her head. This may come as a shock, but Wallace was only sentenced to 11 to 23 months in prison for that crime.

Keep in mind, Wallace could have been sentenced to up to five years for just the instrument of a crime charge.

And police had reportedly been called out to the home where Wallace stayed numerous times since May of this year – roughly 31 calls according to sources.

Not to mention, his own mother placed a protective order against Wallace in 2013 which he wound up violating when he “threw water in her face and punched her in the face” and “threatened to return and shoot” his own mother.

In 2019, Wallace was charged with resisting arrest when he was allegedly trying to kick out the windows and door panels of a police car. And just in March of this year, he was arrested for allegedly threatening the mother of his children over the phone saying:

“I’ll shoot you and that house up.”

Polite society has gone too far when "people" rely on government to protect their property and their person.

Companies who choose to do business in cities should be free to mount gun-turrets overlooking their property and they should be free to use them without fear of prosecution in instances such as depicted in the OP. Doesn't matter if it's Wal-Marx or the Mom-n-Pop store, no different than cattle rustling...

The only way city strife ends is with bloodshed.

If all involved are smart (questionable) they'll keep their antics in their cities.

I have an acquaintance that lost most of his shit to civil asset forfeiture, so.......heavily disagree that cops don't loot and steal.

Agree with everything else. Laws are exactly why we lost the "right" to defend ourselves. I'll still never call armed government workers for help, even if being run over by the hoard. I am certain you won't either.

Oh come on!

Clearly I was talking about the video in the OP.

Don't act ignorant.

You'll not find me siding with kops anywhere! In fact read my 1st post in this thread.
 
...Possessing an instrument of crime.

What, like an accordion?..

As for the rest... It seems bizarre to me that when I was much more into researching cases of police brutality and egregious police mistakes, there were so many more examples of truly undeserving people getting shot and killed by the cops (and myriad dogs), and not a hell of a lot was to come of them. Breonna Taylor is one of the few recent people who were killed in a raid that was completely unjustified, AND that elicited this kind of "civil" response. Floyd was a bad scene, too, and should've been handled differently, but he had a hand or two in his own demise. There were others this year, such as Ahwatukee resident Ryan Whitaker, who were needlessly killed while doing nothing unlawful, but he was white, and seemingly not too many shits were given.

When you come out supporting guys who take tazers from cops and shoot them, or who come at cops wild and berserk with a knife, and then seek justice by looting the town barren, what the hell credibility do you think you'll have?

He placed a gun to a woman's head.
 
What annoys me about the BLM movement is that they have ignored the many innocent victims of police brutality that we have been screaming about for years. That's blacks, whites, browns, hell even the family dog. Now they are lionizing armed, deranged, violent men simply for skin color. It is making a joke out of everything we have fought for in the liberty movement.

"People" like that co-opt what others have done all the time and it's for personal gain every single time.

Yes it is, and that was exactly what it was designed to do.

De-legitimize the current armed enforcers while paving the way for the new, properly politically aligned, ones,
 
I guess they felt the strongly worded letters, Facebook posts, and permitted protests in designated locations weren’t having the desired effect?

That, or they just want free stuff ...

It’s hard to argue that. It disappoints me greatly to see justified hatred and energy against an oppressive system be so intentionally misdirected. It sucks that humans are so easily herded into tribal factions.

This - with emphasis on "intentionally" ...

Flat screens are soooo last weeks peaceful gatherings. This weeks prize includes washing machines. Remember to bring a set of hand-trucks to the nearest peaceful protest near you!

Pro Tip: Get there early, and you won't need to bring a hand truck - 'coz you can just grab one of those for free, too ...

... and this.

They have no use for innocent or sympathetic victims. It's when the cause is just - even if the reaction is not - that people are more willing to excuse or tolerate violent "protest" without resorting to forceful counter-reaction. It's only when the "victim" is neither innocent nor even sympathetic that they have the "purest" opportunity to test just how far they can push things and still get away with it.

What I mean by that is that when the "victim" is an unsympathetically violent asshole like Wallace, the willingness of people to excuse and tolerate violence (looting, rioting, beating. burning, etc.) is tested to the limit [1] - because that's when people are least willing to excuse or tolerate those things. And since it is being excused and tolerated anyway, even without just cause, the "protestors" confirm for themselves that pretty much anything goes, for any reason ...



[1] And unfortunately, it's a test that civil society is presently losing - and losing badly ...
 
Marianne Williamson said on Twitter that "Thou shall not loot" is not in the Bible. Seems she forgot that word is a synonym for steal. Even when she brings up the Bible, she fails.
