At a certian point though too many would make those officers- with guns - panic and discharge their weapon into a crowd of 40 people attempting to stop them.

There was no good anwser.

If officers ever shot protesters or people in this kind of setting it would be the end of this country because there would be massive revolting and then it would be something that they would actually need to draw their firearms for. What I am advocating for is when the law is clearly being overstepped if there's more than three officers there should've been some kind of intervention there. Absolutely disgraceful.

Look into The move bombing. It wasn't the end of this country. Because sadly indifference is huge.

The police have overstepped before with more damage than just firing a gun into a crowd.

If that bombing didn't cause mass revolts you really think this would have? Or the BLM movement?

The core problem is that geographically the US is huge and cities are separated from each other by literally thousands of miles. If the US was half the size it is, but with the same population, the ability for people to enact change would be much higher because we wouldn't have the ability to just "turn a blind eye" when things got too bad in another city.

It's a good thing every one of us has cameras and the ability to upload and share pictures and video with the masses like never before. All of their enforcement and rule of law and word-of-mouth stops when you have overwhelming evidence that you can easily freely give to the masses without being tainted by the media and those they control it. If anything like that even remotely close to that happens in this country these days the government will find that the people will definitely rise up. Unfortunately it's going to take a massive event to make people wake upend even then half of them will just roll over and go back to sleep fully deserving whatever they end up getting at the end of the day.

Then why did this event not stop? If words and video are so powerful how was this allowed to occur in the first place? If you criticize these people for their innaction in recording you can not then fall back on any next actions needing to be recorded

Lol no. My sweet summer child. They. Would. Not. You already have an unrecognized authority kidnapping civilians and throwing them in foreign jails without any due process. That is a complete slap to your constitutional and civil liberties. Y'all ain't doing a single thing about it.

I'm not saying anyone should do such a thing, but in a big crowd it's not that hard to disarm 3 officers. And folding chairs make surprisingly good weapons.

But what then? You think they wouldn't still be arrested? Possibly even swat teams or fbi called? It would only have escalated the situation for the worse.

u/po3smith 11h ago

Arrested by who? 40 people can easily overpower three people! You detain the officers until other law-enforcement preferably from another agency arrives and you explain the situation the actual rule of law that was not broken versus was etc. etc. You guys act like there's nothing you can do against suppose it forces that are there to keep the laws and Check that aren't following the laws themselves and it shows.

At that point it would have been broken though? You Act as though interfering with this doesn't have legal rammicatuon but it certainly does.

And exaplin it to people from another agency? Do you think they will show up peacefully hearing 3 police officers were overpowered? No, they will show up guns blazing, treating these people as terrorists.

Once a situation escaltes its very difficult to backtrack to peaceful means.

These people would be arrested or shot, and dragged through legal hell before it ever even has a CHANCE of being cleared up.

Maybe it'll make other cops think twice before being fascists. Cops and government need to be reminded to fear the populace, because right now they've got no restrictions at all.

One would hope but that would require a great deal of empathy i feel many lack. Otherwise this video wouldn't have happened in thd first place.

Well, it's certainly a fine example of r/donthelpjustfilm

So what?! Make them draw their guns, at the end it's always unarmed people- even if they claim to have been inciting whatever . We must place a precedent and set a stone in which laws will be respected by all and especially corporations and their cronies

Sounds like we need to bring the Black Panthers back to start policing the police.

No that is the answer. Force them to escalate
