it was actually exposed that a lot of undercover cops were at different places of the protests, vandalizing, breaking into places, and setting fire to make the protestors look bad lol.
As someone who lived in low income housing most of my life I can attest to how important such housing is. During a period of time my household income was around $~600 per month and if not for section 8 I [and many others] would be again living in homeless shelters or worse. Its a sad turn of events.
Thats a good background on why some of the lootings etc are happening. I feel like this side is easily missed as its not rly being reported about.it was actually exposed that a lot of undercover cops were at different places of the protests, vandalizing, breaking into places, and setting fire to make the protestors look bad lol.
and in terms of breaking into the targets, their whole reason was that the previous day, they wouldn't sell water/milk to peaceful protestors who were being teargassed by police and they had been funding the Minneapolis police department for years...
they have been peacefully protesting for years now and nothing has changed, more and more lives are being lost because of the abusive police system. if this is how we get the attention of our government to actually do something and dismantle the shady police union and their policies that abuse poc, especially black people, then so be it.
It’s because the police want people to think that the protestors are the ones in the wrong.Thats a good background on why some of the lootings etc are happening. I feel like this side is easily missed as its not rly being reported about.
That's definitely not being reporter here either. What we mostly get is city burning.It’s because the police want people to think that the protestors are the ones in the wrong.
also a lot of the looted items like milk, water etc are being given to protestors who were Protesting today and the protestors were also seen organizing clean ups where the riots were taking place. So they’re not just taking stuff for themselves. Unfortunately no one is reporting on this and I had to find out through videos on twitter
Same here. It’s unfortunate but not surprising considering the police has been doing this for a while. Making black people and poc out to be ruthless thugs that are terrorizing communities even though it’s far from the truth.That's definitely not being reporter here either. What we mostly get is city burning.
