Been watching the stream for a while now. A friend found it on 4chan weirdly enough. Anyone know how or why this happened?
[–]Cyno01 11 points12 points13 points  (0 children)
Police shot and killed an armed suspect this afternoon. One squad car smashed up, officer inside hospitalized, another squad car on fire, the BP gas station is on fire too and the FD cant get in to do anything because of gunfire.
[–]doclev 1 point2 points3 points  (3 children)
What board did you find it on?
[–]gothiccheesepuffRiverwest 4 points5 points6 points  (2 children)
/pol/
[–]KyleG 2 points3 points4 points  (0 children)
I'm surprised people cop to reading that cesspool.
[–]doclev -2 points-1 points0 points  (0 children)
Now that's a quality thread. It amazes me that you saw that stream on /pol/. They are so on top of their shit.
[–]safetysquirrelWest Allis 2 points3 points4 points  (2 children)

[–]Cyno01 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
I saw something about news crews pulling out of the immediate area, but now i cant find it.
[–]TA332214Bayside[S] 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
I saw it happen live on stream.
Bunch of guys jumped the fence and chased them down.

I was just thinking this. Tonight I had dinner at Vanguard with some friends and family then walked home. Perfectly lovely summer evening. Completely oblivious.

My dad is a firefighter and is working tonight, I hope he doesn't have to go there tonight.

Thanks! He works on silver spring so I think he is a ways away. Hope it doesn't get worse.

Wait is this my friend SuckMyAss? I hope your father is safe even if you aren't my friend SuckMyAss, but I'm wondering if I just bumped into a friend here.

Ah, well my thoughts are with your father as well. Thinking about how grateful I am for firefighters tonight. They are very underrated people.

How about them?
[–]TA332214Bayside[S] 1 point2 points3 points  (3 children)
Did they do something to warrant a news report?

They set themselves on fire just now.

jesus fucking christ.
Once, just once, could violence not beget more violence? I understand people's frustration, I understand where people are distrustful of police, but I don't understand torching businesses, looting, endangering innocent people.
It's fucking frustrating and I wish it would stop.
[–]KyleGA Texan in 'Tosa 1 point2 points3 points  (0 children)
I'm no bleeding heart liberal, but just imagine for a second that for hundreds of years your people have been shat on constantly and nothing ever seems to let up. Some people actually light things on fire. Other people vote for Donald Trump to metaphorically "burn it all down."
Neither is a good idea, but the underlying motivation is obvious in both cases: extreme unhappiness with reality.
[–]kaesekopf 1 point2 points3 points  (0 children)
Criminals wanna be criminals, tbh
[–]redt1ckReal cool guy -2 points-1 points0 points  (2 children)
I heard an interesting argument during the riots in Baltimore. I'm sure I'm butchering the thesis but the basic idea was that, when you repeatedly ignore people's complaints and concerns, violence is the only thing people have left.
[–]kaesekopf 0 points1 point2 points  (1 child)
Complaints and concerns? Innocent people arent getting killed. Criminals are getting killed.
Dont wanna deal with cops? Dont be a fucking criminal!
[–]redt1ckReal cool guy 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
No. Innocent people are being killed too.
[–]first52 2 points3 points4 points  (0 children)
Listen on the scanner apps like ScannerPro or online at Broadcastify live. Constant shots fired, police injury and it sounds like additional fires. But I can't tell if those fires are set at the riot site as I'm unfamiliar with the area.
[–]perfect_square 3 points4 points5 points  (0 children)
White guy being beaten on the ground according to scanner. Let's burn some shit down RIGHT NOW!

Watching TMJ4, they just showed smoke coming out of a bank whose windows were broken. Just started less than 5 minutes ago.
[–]karmartyr 11 points12 points13 points  (22 children)
Literally 5 blacks shot each other to death last night and where was the outrage for that? They just want to raise hell, they don't care about any meaningful change. Fucking ridiculous
[–]Army0fMe 14 points15 points16 points  (14 children)
Because it only matters when cops shoot em apparently.
[–]KyleGA Texan in 'Tosa 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
Surely a protest has more merit in one case than the other, though. I mean if a bunch of randos kill each other, there's no institution to protest.

Still not as bad as any of the comments on any of the news articles about this...
[–]13en3 3 points4 points5 points  (6 children)
I can't read those comments. I like to have faith that humans are still good.
[–]MuslimMigrant69 comment score below threshold-11 points-10 points-9 points  (5 children)
Move to a black community. That faith will be gone you sheltered fuck.
[–]KyleGA Texan in 'Tosa 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
I live in Tosa. There are a bunch of black people here who are super cool. I don't know what the fuck you're on, but you're definitely not high on life.

        Yeah, everyone knows there's an acceptable level of racism that you couch in backpedalling, made up facts, and preface statements like "Now I'm not racist, but..." I bet this guy wears his KKK hood to little league baseball games and shit. Its jerks like this giving white people a bad name.
        [–]changlorious_basterd -2 points-1 points0 points  (6 children)
        Surely you can understand the difference between a civilian shooting a civilian and a police officer shooting a civilian?

        Criminal*
        [–]KyleGA Texan in 'Tosa -2 points-1 points0 points  (0 children)
        No, he can't because understanding reality doesn't serve his agenda.
        [–]MilmoWK -4 points-3 points-2 points  (2 children)
        this situation has nothing to do with a police shooting.
        [–]MilmoWK 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
        oops, i thought this was about the gas station employee pulling a gun on a crowd of kids.

        I'm sure we will hear about "minor civil unrest in Milwaukee"

        ....in two days, scrolling along the bottom while they spend time telling us who to vote for.
        [–]Cyno01 0 points1 point2 points  (4 children)
        Hate to say it, but unless this gets a lot worse, this is barely newsworthy (at a national level) nowadays.
        [–]TA332214Bayside[S] 1 point2 points3 points  (1 child)
        What?? Multiple cop cars burned and smashed, and a gas station burned to the ground?
        Ferguson was some of the biggest news of that year and had similar damage.
        [–]watchoutfordeerEast Side! 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
        That was a CVS though, bro.
        [–]Powerstage99 -2 points-1 points0 points  (1 child)
        Its live on fox 6 right now lol
        [–]Cyno01 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
        WTMJ4, WISN12, FOX6, CBS58 /= CNN, FOX News, MSNBC, etc. But it looks like its starting to break on the national networks. Of course this would be reported on by local media.
        [–]Thewonderingent1065 -1 points0 points1 point  (2 children)
        Tmj4 is talking about it.
        [–]watchoutfordeerEast Side! 3 points4 points5 points  (1 child)
        I think he means national networks... not local yokel stuff.
        [–]KyleGA Texan in 'Tosa 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
        LOL I just moved here from Texas at the end of June. When I got an antenna and found this station, I was like "wtf is there a local celebrity gossip channel for" because I mistook TMJ for TMZ.
        [–]intheview 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
        I have to admit, I love BLM. I love that someone is trying to do something to bring attention from the outside world, hoping that someone will help and fix the problems.
        But then this happens. and my hopes are deflated like a warm fart on a summer day. Like a flan in cupboard.
        [–]vitrael2 1 point2 points3 points  (1 child)
        Black Lives Matter is an anti-white racist hate group. Its entire purpose from day 1 was to stoke tension between the black & white communities in order to create civil unrest and make demands. The result is clear: violence against police, rioting, torching of businesses, and increased violence within the black community. BLM was designed to drive people like Korryn Gaines crazy, making them genuinely believe the police are at war with the black community, and ultimately lead to their untimely deaths.
        If anything, BLM is actually worse for black people, whose voices are being co-opted by violent hooligans with no intentions of helping anyone.
        [–]BreeBree214 -3 points-2 points-1 points  (0 children)
        No they're not.
        If you've ever actually been to an event you'd know this is completely false.
        [–]Gondriac -3 points-2 points-1 points  (3 children)
        There is so much racism in this thread, it's fucking despicable. You're only adding to the problem.
        [–]vitrael2 3 points4 points5 points  (0 children)
        It's not racist to oppose the violence of Black Lives Matter and its associated whack jobs.
        BLM is not the voice of Black America. It is disgusting that they insist they speak for all black people.
        [–]kaesekopf 1 point2 points3 points  (0 children)
        Thatd be the criminals. Someone saying something is far less damaging than, yknow, killing or shooting someone.
        [–]BreeBree214 -1 points0 points1 point  (0 children)
        A lot of the disgusting racist comments got deleted already
