The time is now,murdering a black man in the street on camera with the cop looking nonchalantly around is the final straw,it was a public snuff movie,watching CNN at night I saw last night women being body slammed,beaten up for standing still or one they dragged out of a car,the elderly man having his head smashed open,the official report said he slipped and fell,police shooting those hard things ,i forget the name at peaceful protesters,some point blank range,one peaceful 17yr old was hit in the head,they cause a lot of damage ,then there was a copper bending down to pepper spray a child in the face,all of this on camera,they are out of control,now is very much the time,covid or no covid,that will be gone one day but police violence will not if they let this go now
These protests are not purely about what has happened in America, as someone else has already pointed out. Black people in this country also have legitimate grievances too.I get that but we are in a middle of a pandemic and protesting over something that happen the other side of the world.
Shame that some seem intent on causing trouble, but let's not castigate the protests as a whole or the movement in general based on the actions of a small minority.
Don't be ridiculous.
But it does when it descends into feral behaviour like this. The headline will be the dickish few ruining the dayOf course i can't justify it ,it happens at every demonstration though ,it doesn't take away the point of the majority peaceful ones
There are tens of thousands of people at the London march, possibly more. Do you think they are all being violent?its not really a small minority though
there are some trouble causers bout 10% there are some who are genuinely concerned with policing in America 10% and 80% of instagrammers and youtubers ,kids with fuck all to do,Shame that some seem intent on causing trouble, but let's not castigate the protests as a whole or the movement in general based on the actions of a small minority.

do these protesters think Trump will be sat in his office saying ''oh dear look at England I need to change the way I run the country.
Why aren't the police in full ppe masks etc ?
And that's from someone who has majorly suffered from itKaren, so you are saying its ok to break social distancing laws if its a cause you beleive in! Bizzare. How many extra deaths through the extra spread of COVID19 via these demonstrations are acceptable for this cause. You clearly think some are worthwhile so lets have a number off you? And the rest of the people who think this kind of behaviour is acceptable in a national health emergency.
Of a fucking minority, Manchester has passed off peacefully today so you can’t say it’s everyone.Bigga and Karen 7 hope you can justify the scenes going on now. I'm all for protests but this is an excuse for civil disorder
Is anyone saying people should be attacking the police in this country, or are you making shit up?Yet
1) Look how restrained the police are
2) Is it acceptable to attack the police? It achieves nothing.
if the black people are protesting about this country why pick a pandemic to protest ?
No, of course it's not acceptable to attack the police. I haven't seen anyone argue otherwise?Yet

they are there most of them because they've got fuck all to do and can share it on facebookNo, because they're they're protesting in solidarity with black Americans and using it as a springboard to demand change in this country too.
