let’s review the shit excuses they gave when they agreed with the protestors:
Review faults police response to Charlottesville far-right rally | Reuters
Heaphy, whose team interviewed 150 people, said no police officer he spoke to felt good about what happened.
Officers were not properly trained or deployed, Heaphy said. State and city police used different radio systems during the rally so they could not communicate effectively.
Heaphy said Charlottesville wrongly believed it could not ban protesters from carrying items such as clubs and shields, and city and state police took too passive an approach when clashes broke out.
“Despite clear evidence of violence, police consistently failed to intervene, de-escalate, or otherwise respond,” the report said. “These shortcomings contributed to a chaotic series of events that led to violence and death.”
Fuck the police
The UVA cops (Charlottesville) beat and maced Free Palestine protestors who were following the rules.
They changed guidelines overnight around camping and without notice started pepper spraying students in the rain.
Same school that allowed Nazis to roam freely.
They also flagged an incident as “antisemitic” this semester after a student spray painted an ‘israel’ flag, which was hung by the school itself, with the comment “where’s Palestine”.
Asking for equal representation = antisemitic apparently because of course Palestinians are lesser people!
Open toed shoes to a protest, their emergency contact number written on a visible part of their skin, and they’re linking arms (meaning theyre super easy to topple over in a group)
wear closed shoes and a belt (so comrades have a secure spot to grab you) to a protest
acab obviously
Good thing the Chancellor was there so defend these poor innocent victims of antisemitism.
