#9  Witnesses said the car hit ten to 12 protesters as it surged forward causing multiple injuries.

#8  The media is so irresponsible criminal in their reporting. The Dems are also aiding and abetting these rioters by their tacit and often open approval of such events.

The Media and Democrats are accessories to these crimes. The local and state governments are guilty of malfeasance. This is prosecutable crime.

#1  These people attacked the police. They are rioters and terrorists. I have zero sympathy for these rioters. They have created a potentially very dangerous situation for the police officers.

What's next on the part of these rioters, a Fallujah scenario with American burned bodies hanging from bridges?

The media is so irresponsible criminal in their reporting. The Dems are also aiding and abetting these rioters by their tacit and often open approval of such events.
