My brother in Christ, you are the violence that will not be tolerated.
-
Then they should go home
-
You know what? Violence brought on by police won't be tolerated by us.
-
Ok then you shouldn't commit any?
-
They say that but only apply it to the protestors, not the bastards in uniform and riot gear that shoot and beat people unprovoked. It's always tolerated if the violence is being handed out by the state.
-
The greatest rule of violence is its only violence if it flows up hill. 9/11 violence, the starving of civilians through embargo's? Magically not violence

Palantir has likely put together entire ops plans, including instigators, making sure the “right” journalists capture that protestor violence, and immediately spreading it over right wing media to ensure they get more and more fired up and ready to shoot their neighbors once Trump builds his “freedom militia” or whatever
-
Of course they do, they learned after the BLM protests
-
-
Great, then the cops should stay home
-
Don't start none
won't be none
-
Ah so does that mean the fascist pigs will fuck off?
-
Thank goodness we won't have to worry about police brutality at this one!
-
Does this mean that the police will not be using violence? :)
-
No, just that it will be their excuse to escalate.
-
-
Unless they instigate it, of course
-
Remember there are more people then police
-
Oh good. I was worried the police were going to use force 😮💨
-
CBS news has gone full scale right, haven't they? I've seen so much BS from them lately.
-
ABC, too.

"If we see any violence we will kick the living shit out of you!".
-
"And if we don't see any violence we will kick the shit out of you!"
-
-
There are more of you than them. And thankfully you can easily arm and defend yourself.
-
Good. So the cops should be on their best behavior.
-
Fat police
-
If I have to run from the cops, I hope it's one of these specimens that is chasing me. I'm pretty sure I can run faster and farther before these guys have to stop and throw up.

I hear open carry is a good way to make cops respect you.
Mostly /s

Protestors should warn the police that violence will not be tolerated!
My comment was removed for "advocating violence", so I'll try to make myself clear:
First of all, I did not intend to advocate violence.
I was trying to advocate that people be vocal about the fact that there is a certain amount of violent suppression they will tolerate before they turn to violent resistance.
This isn't about condoning violence. It's about loudly warning the authorities about what often happens when protesters are suppressed using unwarranted force.
Furthermore, it's about recognising that everyone has a right to self defence, and making the authorities aware of that. If the police open fire on innocent civilians, they have a right to fight back. If the police beat a peaceful protester, they have a right to fight back. If unidentified people attempt to illegally arrest a protester, they have a right to fight back. The authorities have said things that make it appear as if they haven't recognised this, and I'm advocating that they be made aware of it.
This means:
