SEATTLE POLICE DECLARE RIOT AFTER PROTESTERS TORCHED THE SCENE
“This kind of vicious conspiracy theory, that an American policeman at speed in 2020 America acts as a kind of runaway slave patrol, only requires data verification, but an instinctive check,” Tim Graham, media research director at Media Research Center told Fox News.
“It is astonishing that other people are being fired for the defense of law and order through Tom Cotton, however, this kind of rot is certainly undeniable in the newsrooms they awaken. That turns out to be the internal orthodoxy of the wake-up newsrooms,” Graham said. .
Myers began the article by noting the national protests that have occurred since the murder of George Floyd on Memorial Day in police custody. She temporarily blamed “escalating” tensions in Portland for President Trump’s ruling to send U.S. agents “to supposedly protect the federal courthouse in that city.” The Indiana University professor stated that “the president’s deployment of a highly militarized force without a known popular education had inflamed the situation,” and then wrote that this law enforcement habit was not a new concept.

“The deaths of other black people at the hands of the police are also not new. For more than a century, blacks have been terrified by those who wear blue, Myers wrote, before pointing out that the American police” were designed for white supremacy through the monitoring, capture, assault and murder of blacks.

“Formed to be agents of violence against blacks, the police also protected the property of whites, both genuine and furniture. This included the bodies of white women.
