Video at Buffalo protest shows police pushing 75-year-old man

I see a lot of influencers acting like it's no big deal to travel to China. That it's as safe as any other Asian country. Meanwhile, for three years, China holds Western hostages. Not a place I'd want to visit even with the technological cities like Shenzhen, the historical sites, the beautiful landscape and the ancient culture being so alluring [1] I prefer to remain free* * And instead take my chances getting maimed by an American cop at a traffic stop or protest [2] ;-) [1] link [2] ▶ this video

Why does it feel like whenever these nimrods do something really really stupid or really really atrocious, there is always people coming out of the woodwork and trying to show that if you squint really hard while looking at the situation through a TV playing Fox or OAN you will find some part of it that's maybe possibly could be explained as something being off (but still requires a massive conspiracy)? Like, what's more likely that this woman became radicalized by watching propaganda all day every day and in a misguided attempt to be a patriot committed a crime? Or that there is some massive web that at every turn explains why it's never the alt right's fault? Remember the 75 year old that was pushed down by the police in Buffalo, NY and cracked his skull on the pavement? Well if you believe some, he was wearing a blood sac in his mouth and there was a little tube you can kinda see in the video that allowed him to squirt the blood out and make it look like he was hurt.

The first responders that came didn't notice the lack of wound or the fake blood, or were also all in on it. 3. The bystanders did the same as above. 4. The probably at least a dozen hospital sta

> If a crowd of 1000 people has one person throw a brick at the police. I think it’s well within their rights to tear gas the entire group to disperse them. This is exactly what far right provocateurs want, to embed themselves inside legitimate protests and misbehave so that all are punished. Does that seem appropriate? Also, both cases of brutality I described above happened in broad daylight. Please tell me how this specific incident[0] represents appropriate conduct by the police. 0: ▶ this video

That is incorrect; the police continued to walk past and a member of the National Guard ended up attending to him: ▶ this video

>the top message on the Buffalo's police union webpage read: "These guys did nothing but do what they were ordered to do. This is disgusting !!!” The "just following orders" defense isn't one that's held up well historically. The crux of the argument is whether he was pushed or tripped, not whether or not they were following orders.
