Video: CNN Crew Attacked by Rioters in Atlanta – Beaten at Wendy’s

66

The new normal. CNN has been ginning up hatred of cops, but this is the thanks they get from the destroyers.

As for Rayshard Books, all we need to know is he stole a cop’s taser. That means the cop shots. Period. That is protocol. The police officer did nothing wrong in this case, and the Atlanta Police Department was deeply wrong to have fired him. We have to protect cops or not have them. This is madness. The enemedia is putting a target on every cop’s head.

“BREAKING: CNN Crew Attacked by Rioters in Atlanta – Beaten at Wendy’s (VIDEO),” by Jim Hoft, Gateway Pundit, June 13, 2020:

Story continues below advertisement

Riots broke out in Atlanta on Saturday night following the death of 27-year-old Rayshard Brooks on Friday night at a Wendy’s Brooks fought with police, stole their taser gun and was shot dead when he turned to use it on the officers.

NO STORY THERE except the rioting
The perp stole a cop’s taser and tried to use it on him, while he was trying to escape custody. Of course that invited lethal force.

Body camera footage released early Sunday by Atlanta police showed 27-year-old Rayshard Brooks appearing good-humored and largely cooperative with the two white officers after being found sleeping alone in a car blocking a Wendy’s drive-thru lane.
The Georgia Bureau of Investigation said Brooks wrestled a Taser from one of the officers and ran. The GBI released security camera footage from the restaurant that showed a running Brooks turn and point an object in his hand toward an officer a few steps behind him. The video shows the officer draw his gun and fire as Brooks continues to run, then falls to the ground in the parking lot.

Off topic –
GOP Defies Trump, Senate Panel Passes Warren’s Bill
That Would Strip Military Bases Of Confederate Names

June 12, 2020 Martin Walsh

Warren introduced an amendment in the Senate Armed Services Committee to make the Pentagon rename bases named for Confederate leaders — and Republicans passed it.

“The American people know these names have to go,” said House Speaker Nancy Pelosi at a news conference, claiming that President Donald Trump
“seems to be the only person left who doesn’t get it.”

Missouri Republican Josh Hawley was one of the only Republicans on the committee who voted against the measure.

“I opposed this amendment, spoke against it, and voted no in the committee,” Hawley said. “Congress should not be mandating renaming of our bases and military installations.”


The amendment, offered by Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), was approved by voice vote Wednesday during the committee’s closed-door markup of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), the source familiar with the situation said. The amendment would give the Pentagon three years to remove the Confederate names.

The Senate panel passing the amendment is in clear defiance of Trump, who said on Thursday that he would “not even consider” renaming Army bases that are named after Confederate officers.

Waffler, California Republican Rep. Kevin McCarthy said he was “not opposed” to renaming the bases named for Confederate figures.

Missouri GOP Sen. Roy Blunt said he “didn’t have any problem” with the idea “at all,” and added that “there have been lots of great soldiers since the Civil War” whose names could go on forts.

This is the result of a closed door committee voice vote. It should go to Mitch for a vote. Mitch is up for re-election this year too so we’ll have to wait and see what he does. The GOP tends to get timid when it is a recorded vote and swampish when it is a voice vote. Only a handful in D.C. speak for voters they represent. It’s
stomach-churning and they get away with it all the time.

It’s just anther example of how the swamp, DEMS and GOP, want Trump out!

This doesn’t matter to the idiots at CNN. Every member of the crew could have been sent to the hospital in critical condition and the jackasses like Don Lemonhead would still be defending the ‘peaceful’ protesters. It will not deter them one bit. In fact, wait for the ensuing news story, that those who attacked CNN, were all wearing MAGA hats. 4-3-2-1…….

Left Logic: If you don’t know about it, Black-on-Black crime never happened
Last night a drive-by shooting in Atlanta left 2 dead and 5 injured. CNN and the MSM conveniently ignored the story. Only Fox News and local Atlanta news outlets covered it.

In fact, if you Google: Drive-by shooting Atlanta, the search results show multiple stories about drive-by shootings over the past year including last night’s massacre. None of the events were reported by CNN or any of the other MSM outlets.

If your one of millions of Americans that only get your news from MSM, you would believe that the only time a Black is murdered is when a white cop pulls the trigger. That’s because, Black-on-Black crime (the overwhelming majority of black homicides) has been erased from MSM news coverage.

If CNN openly endorses Marxists, are you still anti-violence? They already have.
If the Marxists take over American cities, are you still anti-violence? They already tried.
If Marxists infiltrate the US Congress, are you still anti-violence? They have a presence.
If Marxists gain control of the SCOTUS, are you still anti-violence? They’re plotting.

After what we just witnessed happen in America and is still happening, anyone foolish enough to think we can’t lose our country to a cabal of Leftists, Globalists and Marxists needs to pull their head out of their rear. These people are already entrenched in out K-12 schools, public and private universities, and they are already running most of our major cities. WTFU.

Agreed, but he added WTFU to his post …

… which is a brain-dead comment to add.

What does he want us to do … give CNN some violence by Right-wingers to film?

Look what they did with Floyd’s video – giving CNN some violence – is exactly what the Left wants to incite.

Point is: Apparently I had to clarify this because some readers of our threads do not understand how to win.

We’re not even organized. If we were, everyone would already know that the best thing for us to do right now – other than breaking out the popcorn and popping a beer – is to make sure everyone on the internet knows the riots are coordinated by the Left.

So that’s why I responded the way I did. I understand and appreciate his outrage, but as the cliche goes …

… Never interrupt your enemy while he’s making a mistake.

“We’re not even organized.”

We’re asleep. All we do is we pontificate that the Left are nothing but a bunch of losers… but they are organized as you rightly point out. If this is a war, which it essentially is, then we are clearly out classed. Then again, they’ve been doing this for a while… like I said, we’ve been asleep.

They are organized in deploying their forces in messaging, elections and riots. The Left clearly talking points that they disseminate to all levels (media and political leaders and group leaders like BLM). They canvas for votes and in areas where ballot harvesting is allowed, they harvest ballots. Where they get all those ballots from is a mystery… my guess is there is a significant amount of fraud going on there. And they are clearly organized for these riots. What’s not clear is who is organizing them and how are they getting their marching orders.

What we don’t have are the generals who are seeing what is going on and devising responses to that. What we also don’t have is a unity. I’m guessing that is kind of a feature of who we are but that might work against us… as they saying goes, a house divided will not stand. Who will lead us in this “civil war II”? How are we going to counter the constant campaign of lies coming out from the Left? Who will mobilize and coordinate the Right?

Well, I don’t think that matters to the illiterate rank and file …

… you’re right that the riots are organized by terrorists

… but I don’t think any of the big leadership is on the streets – too much risk of exposure

… and I don’t think the average rioter takes orders from Antifa directly

What’s going on is a carefully orchestrated theater – with the stage direction coming from off-stage – and most of the ‘actors’ are morons who don’t realize they’ve been duped.

In a way, the attack on CNN’s crew is a good thing for the Left. They can pretend they are not part of the action – when in fact they are.

I really doubt that anyone at Antifa bothered to send out a text saying ‘get some thugs to attack CNN – it will look good because it will make our media arm look independent’

… in this case. Obviously, they did do this in the case of the attack on CNN in Atlanta.

But I do think someone at Antifa might have said to no one in particular … ‘the public isn’t buying it, if a CNN crew was attacked, it would help us make them look independent.’

Just guessing of course …

Apparently you in the U.S. did not hear that Canada’s wondrous horse’s ass ‘leader’, Prime Minister Justinass Trudeau, on television stated that “blacks and indigenous people are not safe around police.” I watched him make this mindlessly stupid statement. In a letter emailed to him, I told him that he is an “exceedingly irresponsible and stupid prime minister, that almost every time I see the mugshot of Toronto’s or Canada’s latest murderer he is black and his victim is black.” I told him that police were not safe around black men.
Why is no one trumpeting the fact that 6-7% of America’s population, black men, are committing about 50% of America’s murders and that Black Lives Matter is both a racist and anti-Semitic organization?. What does it solve when not addressing these realities? Other than from The Rebel and Era Levant, all we are getting in Canada is pandering to blacks, many of whom are racist and don’t know it (their comments are testament to this reality) and they know nothing about slavery other than what suites their prejudice and glaring ignorance. If 70% of more are falling out of school and are poorly educated, why are these vacant-headed morons being permitted to cause such destruction and havoc – and theft?

Former Cop Describes Why Georgia Police Shooting Was 100% Justified
https://trendingpolitics.com/trending-politics-must-see-former-cop-describes-why-georgia-police-shooting-was-1-justified/?utm_source=economics
One former police officer, Brandon Tatum knows that, after seeing video of the Atlanta officers and their interaction with 27-year-old Rayshard Brooks, the cops were completely justified in the way they acted. Rayshard Brooks “grabbed and was in possession of” an officer’s taser.
As Brooks ran with officers in pursuit, he turned around and fired the taser at the officer.“Why would an officer use deadly force against a person who only had a taser?” Tatum asked rhetorically. “Well, because, if you taze the police officer, you can lock his body up and he will be rendered incapable of defending himself.
Tatum said that tasers incapacitate people for minutes at a time, which would give suspects who taze a police officer time to grab his or her sidearm and kill them with it.
“So if an officer is rendered incapable of defending himself, if he has a natural fear of physical bodily injury…and, or, death” as a result of a suspect’s actions, “the officer can use deadly force.”

Black on black shootings are becoming a daily occurrence in Toronto. Toronto used to be such a safe city until Pierre Trudeau, Justin’s father opened the immigration gates to Jamaicans in 1968 and the crime rate in Toronto sky-rocketed almost overnight. The black population features single mom parenthood as the norm and running around 80%. All the illegal guns in Canada are owned by the blacks with a significant increase among the Moslems.

Maybe you can explain it, but I don’t get it.

If my enemy spreads a nasty rumor about my mother with the intention of destroying her reputation, and then my enemy’s allies who are also my enemy mug his employees, that is a karma-like result – as my enemy reaps as he has sown. But that does not justify mugging the employees of the enemy. Especially when it’s not limited to just them – obviously they were just in the way. Most of their targets are bystanders.
