And?
How many police were present?
How many Demonstrators were present?
Did any demonstrator show the police what they had brought to set the church on fire?
How many "present" police officers were psychic to know what a thug was going to do?
What is your point?
What should Police Officers do when a crowd is near a church? Frisk them all?
(Stop it). Stop a person in a mob from catching a Church on fire?
Tell us HOW a Police Officer being in the same area KNEW a thug HAD or was going to throw something to start the church on fire...
HOW ?
You are on the fence.
You espouse an expectation for Police to be psychic to Know exactly what Thugs are going to Do, before they Commit an illegal act...
And you criticize the Police when they React to People who are involved in an illegal act...
Tear gas? How do YOU know the chemical makeup of the gas used to dispurse a crowd?
How DO you KNOW the "peaceful" demonstrators would not turn into a flame throwing or gun shooting MOB at any given moment? Or do you Only expect Police to be Psychic?
Was the Crowd Asked; Told; or Ordered to Dispurse? Facts...were they?
WHY didn't They Dispurse? ( these so called peaceful protesters )
Were they "law abiding citizens"?? And dispersed when Told " by the Police "?
You criticize...
When the Police are NOT Psychic and act Before a crowd gets out of Hand...
You criticize...
When Police react to Citizens who Violate the Law by not Obeying Police Orders...
You say:
Really? Perhaps you are Unaware...DC is a Federal District. Police and Other service Officers are there to Protect Federal Buildings and Sitting Representatives of the Federal Government. And Trump happens to be the Present Chief of all sitting Federal Representatives.
When a crowd, that you call "peaceful" is "Hostile" toward the Sitting Chief...service Officers are there to Protect the Chief!
The Chief has every Right and at his digression to first-hand Visit Memorials, land-marks, that have been Damaged or destroyed by "peaceful" demonstrators.
Just as the Chief has every Right to visit US towns, cities, land, that have been destroyed or damaged by Other (foreign or domestic) Terrorists or disasters by acts of Nature.
Photo Op...LOL. That's funny. The Chief is photographed by staff and News reporters all day long. He doesn't have to seek a photo opportunity ...or hole up in his private suite Because of hostile people like you.
If the Chief Executive Officer of the US wants to walk across the street Observe the damage thugs have caused at a US landmark and Hold up a Bible in Solidarity with The Word of God...what's it to You?
No one cares that may be wrong or offensive to you.
No one cares that you stand with the public that disregards Police Orders.
It simply reveals "your" Standing.
Since this is a forum geared toward Religious views...
I will remind you...if you feel the need to criticize and blame someone for DIVISION
among the People...
Luke 12:
- [51] Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division:
John.7
- [43] So there was a division among the people because of him.
Glory to God,
