[Peace-discuss] COVID-19 and Minneapolis news -- anger is rising against the elites

[J.B. Nicholson]

Jimmy Dore show just ended an interview with Chris Hedges that was very informative 
including clearly showing the cops being criminals (and if any cops didn't go along 
with the program to beat the public into submission and kill the public, they'd be 
run out of the police or killed ala Serpico). One incident in San Jose (Silicon 
Valley where wealthy people live) was someone recording the cops with a phone and was 
shot at and beaten by cops in response. I'm sure this show will turn into multiple 
segments and possibly one longer segment of the entire conversation which should be 
recommended for running during the NFN/AOTA timeslot. ABC7 news (Disney) framed this 
as a "fight breaking out" instead of cops shot and beat someone, again. Apparently 
you're not going to get very good coverage about this on a class basis from FOX, CNN, 
and other establishment-friendly news outlets, judging by their tone-deaf coverage 
(which is precisely the coverage they are there to provide). As Dore clearly points 
out, "they're trained to beat the fuck out of you" and "this is why we need to get 
rid of all the police departments and start over".

Relatedly, as Dore pointed out, LA just added a curfew -- one day after opening up -- 
for downtown areas, one day after shooting rubber bullets into peaceful protesters again.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-cOgPt3kRUQ -- footage of a cop walking away after 
smashing windows (an agent provacateur). His ex-wife outed him as a cop. Another 
video of the same footage adds commentary from Joe Rogan explaining this is one way 
in which cops foment a riot. Jimmy Dore pointed out today that some people responded 
to him saying 'that video has been debunked' and he asked by whom? And the answer 
came back: by the police.
