The Buffalo Police Union boss says that the 75 year old was injured because he “tripped and fell”.  

In fact he did, right after he was simply pushed away. It was clearly an accident, not intentional (the fall nor the injury), even though he should have had more sense than to confront in any way an anti-riot unit that has orders to clear the place. With a curfew already in effect.

This only serves as a distraction to the clear and probably intentional MURDER of George Floyd... which probably is the reason why some politicians are giving it more importance than they really should.

Why are you lying? Look up what time the curfew starts and look at the video again, then apologize for spreading misinformation

Am I?

Here it says the incident happened right after the 8 p.m. curfew:

https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/buffalo-officers-shoving-75-year-old-ground-decried-governor-where-n1225776

The incident occurred shortly after the city's curfew of 8 p.m. on Thursday, NBC affiliate WGRZ in Buffalo reported. Buffalo police initially said the man simply tripped and fell.

At what time did it exactly happened and at what time was the curfew starting?

Didn't read that source so I might stand corrected, but looks way too bright to be after 8pm. Regardless, police brutality is the root issue, more so for minorities.

Sun would not have gone down until about 8:40pm this time of the year in those parts

Can somebody shop the cranky Brrrrrrrrrrr dude into the side door of a UH-1N please.

Here is a homeless man in a wheelchair.  

He was not participating in the demonstration.  He was just there.

However the LAPD have decided to shoot him in the face with a rubber bullet at close range.

This is not a nice thing to do.  This is not what normal police officers do.  As one police chief explains:

According to the Trace, the Minneapolis Police Department’s use-of-force policy strongly advises against pointing 40 mm launchers — which are used to deploy rubber bullets, beanbag rounds, and sponge rounds — above a person’s lower extremities. The policy also acknowledges that the projectiles can cause “grievous” injuries, and in some cases, death. Rubber bullets should be used only to control “an extremely dangerous crowd,” Brian Higgins, a former police chief, told Kaiser Health News.

Bonus picture. A 15 girl is sitting on the ground blinded by pepper spray.  So a cop casually walks up to her and kicks her in the face.

Some of you may consider the cop to be a hero for kicking a seated girl in the face. I don’t.

Thats not a way to talk to your boss, it’s someone who forgot where his next paycheck comes from.

Maybe it would happen. Alternatively, Fed will go full MMT, which would be good for btc &gold, I assume.
Thinking of buying a bit of physical-never did before. Worth it?

I dunno. People look at the gold/silver dollar ratio, and figure it's gotta revert to the mean at some point. That would be very bullish for silver.

An alternate thesis is that silver is losing its status as a monetary asset. If so, it'll keep dropping in price until it reaches its industrial-use-only price level.

I've got some silver. I'm not looking to buy more ATM. Though if I didn't have a stash of junk silver (e.g., pre-1964 US quarters, dimes, etc.). I'd be looking for a standard bag of that for use as TEOTWAWKI currency.

I have some silver too, but I'm now in the camp that it's been in the process of debasing for the last 5,000 years or so. As far as I'm concerned now, it's gold or nothing, in terms of physical metals.

Here is another video of the man who was pushed over backwards by the police and cracked his head.

It turns out that he had picked up a dropped police helmet and went to hand it back to them....  that’s when they pushed him over

List of the demands:

- Liberty
- Justice
- Equality


... it's pretty simple, George Washington's America was the beacon of hope and great historical experiment in liberal democracy, not empire. Washington D.C. is where the problems are coming from, march on Washington for George for change and rescue the republic.

Why $8.1K Will Be a Key Level for Bitcoin Price for the Next 6 Months

Bitcoin may not break $10,000 for some time as several metrics point to possible pullbacks to under $9,000.

By the way, we definitely need to take these short-term doom and gloomers (or stagnation prognosticators) with a decently sized grain of salt.

Yeah, sure there could be a pull back, but at the same time, we had seen that kind of nonsense being predicted in 2016 and maybe it even got worse in 2017 while the BTC market was going up more, in relatively short time frames.  So, now we look back, and we really see that the price move up was filled with a bunch of folks continuing to prognosticate downward with any correction, but as soon as we got through the correction we went up some more.

Surely, I am not asserting that I have some kind of vision that is better than theirs, but still I think that we are getting closer and closer to breaking past price areas (such as the $8ks or even the 4 digits) in which we might not be seeing too much of these prices.... and, you mention 2023, which I am not sure if I would want to wake up out of a capsule in that year, having missed all the excitement of the remainder of 2020 and 2021, and maybe even there might be some exciting parts of 2022... even though maybe we are going to blow off top out at sometime, maybe even prior to 2022... and geez... what are the chances that 2023 is going to be in the midst of some depressing drug out correction period.. maybe as low as the $40ks... and do you really want to miss out of our 6 digits run and to miss the excitement of trying to figure out how far we go into that?  Are we going to barely scratch the surface.. maybe even not quite reach it at $96,627?  or will we break above it or even approach $500k-ish?  

I don't know and even though there continues to be stress of the "whachshould I doooo" ^{tm - (carlos matos)} dilemma.... Do you want to be robbed of such dilemmas?  snap out of it, infofront...!!!! you best not be going into any capsule and missing out of all the upcoming crazy-ass funzies, including reading some of the nonsense of new WO troll shills that will likely be popping out of the woodwork...

Don't show it to bitserve it'll totally undermine his "confrontation" narrative.

As much tragic this incident is, the reaction of the cops was totally predictable (the push away). What you see in the video is an anti-riot squad that someone has ordered to be deployed to clear the zone. When the man approaches them they have just started to advance in formation. Never, ever, be caught in their path as their orders are to remove/disperse everyone from there by non-letal force and to try their best effort not to break formation. Why the man was not aware of what was happening right in front of him is a wonder.

An anti-riot (they are easily recognisable by their vests and equipment so it's hard to miss them) unit is not your friendly cop you can talk to. An anti-riot squad is "something" you know it is surely going to beat you (with batons most of the time) if you manage to be in it's close proximity when they start advancing. That's the orders they have and that's what they did with the unfortunate ending.

If you want someone to blame, blame whomever ordered them to do "their thing" right there, because what they did is exactly what they are expected to do. That's probably why they have resigned from the squad.

Unfortunately there are thousands of clear cases of police brutality and even cold blood murdering that are a way better example of the situation than this one.

The solution is simple. No fucking psychos in the police or the military. The guy who Took A Knee should have been identified and kicked out years ago.

Who is this mythical "someone" that you speak of? Who do we hold accountable, beyond the individual cop in question here?

The perfect society has already been done. It was Sparta.

In any culture where it is not the people who hold the physical power, tyranny and eventual collapse is unavoidable. The State must fear the People. Any notion of being "ruled by consent" is absurd otherwise.

That only proves that the issue is at the system level. I doubt that IDing cops and realizing that standing in front of riot police automatically gets you a beat down is such a common knowledge you claim it to be. But that's how the system is set up, cops on the front line are hiding behind the "my orders" defense. And when shit hits the fan the system just sacrifices few scapegoat to please the masses long enough so they forget about it and move on. Ultimately people don't care about logistics. If there's injustice, you cause death or great bodily harm to non violent offenders=the city burns. Kinda obviously logical don't you think? As far as outcomes, either protests will die down after few more scapegoats and empty promises, or system will be changed. Both supervisor giving the order to push forward in front of the old man as well as the individual cops should be held liable (exactly how they do it to people https://www.aclu.org/issues/capital-punishment/when-state-kills-those-who-didnt-kill). Of course that means pretty much disbanding and retraining every single cop with new guidelines.

Agreed. But maybe they don't really want to solve it? The George Floyd murder is by no means an isolated incident. The very same murderer cop has two other questionable killings in his history.

I don't know who decided to deploy an anti-riot squad (the Governor?). Also I don't even have enough information to argue if it (the deployment) was justified by the situation or not... nor I can judge that from the video. I am just saying that the anti-riot squad acted as expected with an unfortunate result, unlike what all the cops involved in the Floyd murder (and MAAANY other cases) did.

The question is, do we want to solve it? We are, potentially, the new wealthy elite. In coming decades we may have Soros-levels of influence. Think carefully about what the future should be like.

i have not sold any since 2016, so this time, need to sell some good amount
