I’ll just leave this here. 👍🏻

If you think it is a shame for a black man being killed but this rioting and looting is disgraceful

And not

It’s a shame about the rioting and looting but this black man being killed is a disgrace

Fortunately Candace Owens is an irrelevant side show. Not too dissimilar to yourself, many would argue.

Looks like last night happened when the police started over reacting and started kettling. WHAT A SURPRISE

The police are getting pelted with missiles. They should just accept that ??

Went to the protest in Crystal Palace Park yesterday. Was 100% peaceful. Kept my distance, as did most people, though the centre of the protest wasn't very socially distanced (seemed to be mainly the younger attendees).

Like you, I wasn't there.  However, it appears that the video starts after the police have made some form of move against the protesters.  According to the person who took the video, the protesters had been peaceful up until that point.  It is only towards the end of the video that you can see things being thrown at the police.

What evidence are you using to come to your conclusion that the police were being pelted before they charged the protesters?

The man who hit with the car just died today

is it purely a coincidence that the Trolls return at the same time ? I wonder if they know each other or share the same ip adress ? !!

Just in from my freind who is at the Bristol demo

They’ve ripped down the Colston statue

(FYI, Colston is a controversial local figure who made money from the slave trade. Massive Attack have never played the Colston Hall because of it.)

Ha fantastic. Someone chucking that statue in the river is long over due.

I find it strange that a statue of a slave trader has stood for centuries without the local authorities deciding to remove it. Well done the public for taking the decision to remove it. Should have been taken down years ago and stuck in a black museum. The argument that they should leave the statue as a reminder of the slave trade doesn’t hold water with me,  you don’t need a statue of Hitler to remember WW2!

I've got to say, I wouldn't have done it myself - but as a Bristolian, I do feel a bit proud

Surely this statue  must have been the subject of debate for some time?

I have a family member in the met police that was there. What evidence are you using to come to your conclusion that the police charged at the protestors before they were pelted with missiles ?
