Police precinct abandoned. Antifa set up barricades to create a border.

Kshama Sawant - a longtime critic of Durkan, said on Monday to a crowd of protesters: "What we are seeing now is an uprising. A rebellion of young people. Not just nationwide but globally."By Tuesday morning, protesters repurposed police barricades into a zig-zag maze to block traffic, while tent shelters were set up to help keep volunteers dry.Activists build their own barricades to protect themselves pic.twitter.com/ilGct7ZVQ6— Alex Garland (@AGarlandPhoto) June 9, 2020(3) Video of George Floyd killingIt looked real to me - Peter M.From: dmdeedee <dmdeedee@yahoo.com>Here is the entire video of the George Floyd "killing".The Minneapolis Police Choke an Unarmed Handcuffed Black Man to Death:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g8hGKB5QDhw&feature=youtu.be&bpctr=1591763420  #1.

Also, Millennials generally own nothing, too - that may make them more keen to overthrow the system. The lessons is that, if you don't want revolution, you must allow the people to have jobs, and income sufficient that they can buy a home. - Peter M.From: hollyavila@aol.comSubject: Re: Antifa is behind the anarchy & destruction; infiltrates Black  Lives Matter protestshttps://digg.com/video/how-can-we-win-kimberly-jones'HOW CAN YOU WIN?'"When they say 'Why do you burn down the community?

It began as the Black Bloc in Seattle in the successful anti WTO protests in 1999 which I attended and in which, disguised all in black, broke windows which took attention away from what clearly been a victory for peaceful protesters, shutting the WTO down. Then I saw them in Greece in 2004, protesting against a WTO meeting and one I met had come from Berkeley, a place with which I was all too familiar, and he wasn't and seemed to have no connections with any movement there. It has long been a pat of every police playbook to put provocateurs among protesters, in order to justify the subsequent repression of the violence they have instigated. I used to photograph these undercover SF cops in the Bay Area in the Sixties. They didn't like it.(6) Cops "were actually trying to SAVE George Floyd"Subject: Re: Antifa is behind the anarchy & destruction; infiltrates Black  Lives Matter protestsFrom: Progressive Press <info@progressivepress.com>Hi Peter,please check out my new blog. I may have quite a scoop.http://www.progressivepress.com/blog-entry/death-rides-fast-horse-black-life-shattered-dopeI just posted this comment about it on unzDirectly Contrary to popular opinion, the best evidence is that the police were actually trying to SAVE George Floyd -- by restraining him during a fentanyl-induced episode of fatal delirium.  Seehttp://www.progressivepress.com/blog-entry/death-rides-fast-horse-black-life-shattered-dope   . Excerpt:  "the American College of Emergency Physicians’ White Paper Report on Excited Delirium Syndrome recommends" that if police "observe signs of excited delirium... The subjects require physical restraint (this is because if they continue to struggle it accelerates the death)."Floyd exhibited the symptoms:"the Western Journal of Emergency Medicine (WJEM): ? "Excited delirium (EXD) ... is typically associated with the use of drugs. Subjects typically die from cardiopulmonary arrest.... all accounts describe almost the exact same sequence of events: delirium with agitation (fear, panic, shouting, violence and hyperactivity), sudden cessation of struggle, respiratory arrest and death. "It all happens in a few minutes. The symptoms tally closely with what happened to Floyd. Calm at first, then onset of EXD first phase (fear and panic) after they tried to get him in the squad car, next phase shouting in agony when they restrained him on the ground (this is the recommended protocol), final phase respiratory collapse ("I can't breathe"), and death within minutes afterwards.Given this context, if you observe the police in the videos closely, it really does look like they are calmly trying to restrain him to try to save him.Check out the article and see what you think.Things aren't always what they seem at first!The blog also disputes the official cause of death in the autopsy report, which gives the level of fentanyl in Floyd's blood at double the fatal concentration.Be good,JP(7) George Floyd protests are just like US-backed color revolutionshttps://www.rt.com/news/491102-floyd-protests-color-revolution/George Floyd protests are just like US-backed color revolutions abroad, says leading Russiagate journalist7 Jun, 2020 11:47Nebojsa Malic is a Serbian-American journalist, blogger and translator, who wrote a regular column for Antiwar.com from 2000 to 2015, and is now senior writer at RT. Follow him on Twitter @NebojsaMalicThere is no need to speculate any longer about the odd similarities between ‘color revolution’ regime change operations overseas and the current protests across the US, when a leading purveyor of ‘Russiagate’ outright admits it.What the US is experiencing now is "more like the nonviolent movements that earned broad societal support in places such as Serbia, Ukraine, and Tunisia," the Atlantic’s Franklin Foer said on Saturday, in a piece titled ‘The Trump Regime Is Beginning to Topple’.Franklin Foer @FranklinFoer What’s happening in the streets—and with officials refusing to cooperate—is a lot like the revolutions that toppled dictators in Serbia, Ukraine, and Tunisia. https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2020/06/how-regime-change-happens/612739/   The Trump Regime Is Beginning to Topple  The best way to grasp the magnitude of what we’re seeing is to look for precedents abroad.Foer doesn’t go into the details of the events in Serbia and Tunisia, and he only brings up Ukraine in the context of the 2013-14 protests that turned violent and resulted in armed militias taking control in Kiev. In his telling, these were all genuine popular movements that overthrew ‘dictators’, which just so happened to be guided by a 93-page pamphlet written by US political scientist Gene Sharp.He makes no mention of the US government’s role in any of these events – even in Ukraine, where US diplomats handed out cookies to "protesters," and senators like John McCain shared the stage with their leaders.Nor does he gush about a US operation of "engineering democracy through the ballot box and civil disobedience" emerging as a "template for winning other people’s elections," as the Guardian described the 2004 turmoil in Kiev, and directly linked with the 2000 events in Serbia.Instead, Foer says it’s "astonishing" that the events in the US over the past week have "traced the early phases" of Ukraine’s 2014 Maidan revolt. He cites Sharp’s advice to revolutionaries to focus on destroying the "regime" by turning the media, business elites, and police against it. Twitter’s censorship of Trump was a "hinge moment," he says, and other major corporations followed when it turned out "there was little price to pay for the choice."This was then followed by state and local authorities rejecting Trump’s call to bring out the National Guard, the public denunciation by former generals, culminating when Trump’s own secretary of defense "explicitly rejected" the threat of deploying the military to the streets. (Fact check: Not true.)Foer’s self-professed astonishment is interesting, given that the Atlantic actually provided the platform for retired Admiral Mike Mullen and retired General Jim Mattis to denounce the president.Then again, he is not just any ordinary journalist, but the famous author of the article (published by Slate in October 2016, just before the election) alleging that communications between a Trump Organization email server and Russia’s Alfa Bank were proof of his "collusion" with the Kremlin.Alfa Bank and Donald Trump both denied it right away. The FBI actually said in February 2017 there was nothing to it. The Mueller Report, published in April 2019, said there was nothing to it. No matter: the Alfa Bank story kept turning up in ‘Russiagate’ circles, like a bad penny.Though it was eventually revealed that the Alfa Bank story was sourced from the infamous Steele Dossier, the salacious but entirely unverified document authored by a British spy paid by the Hillary Clinton campaign through a series of proxies, Foer was never called out on it.As late as last month, he was still insisting Russia meddled in the 2016 election and will do so again in 2020.Jeffrey Goldberg @JeffreyGoldberg If you want to understand how Russia seeks to change America, read this piece: https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2020/06/putin-american-democracy/610570/So when someone with such connections in the circles of Trump’s political and media critics says the current protests are really about overthrowing the president, and writes approvingly of the tactics involved without once noting they are a weapon previously wielded by both Democrat and establishment Republican administrations overseas, there is no reason not to believe him.(9) Former BLM Organizer says BLM is a Soros/Clinton operation to get Blacks to fight the RightVideo was deleted from youtube but is on Bitchute at https://www.bitchute.com/video/tC2uQ4dIoXdu/https://www.fort-russ.com/2020/06/civil-war-former-blm-ferguson-organizer-chaziel-sunz-exposes-dnc-soros-war-aims-on-american-turf/CIVIL WAR: Former BLM Ferguson Organizer Chaziel Sunz Exposes DNC-Soros War Aims On American TurfBy FRN Editorial BoardLast updated Jun 3, 2020In 2017, Chaziel Sunz explained that Antifa is a hard-left ideological terrorist group which is backed by Soros and Clinton and company.He insinuates that there is a coming civil war, back in 2017, and that black people had better be strategic. He does not say that black people should join with right-wing militias and join Trump, but he says there will be two sides, black people will be forced to choose, and that the worst choice would be to die for Hillary Clinton and 'these demonic forces'.He has shone the light on who pays for Antifa, Black Lives Matter, what the plan is of the Democratic Party using those groups.He said three years ago that these organizations were playing upon the emotions of the black community, pointing to the alleged problem of the Trump supporting 'neo nazis', to: "fight for a war on American turf, very very soon"He says BLM is not a real black organization, it never was. He expresses guilt for keeping the information back. Sunz explains that they want everyone to choose a side, consciously or unconsciously.Now that we see where the George Soros NGO industrial complex has led, as part of a Color Revolution scenario, the words of Mr. Sunz were both telling and prescient.Mr. Sunz left the Dixiecrat plantation.
