OMG they asked 3 times? A whole 3 times??

 

Then went to tear gas and rubber bullets.

 

No surprise you support using tear gas on peaceful American citizens after only a few mins.

Like I said, they should have only had to ask once. Peaceful protesters still obey the law.

They were obeying the law. 

 

But it's no surprise that you support tear gassing peaceful American protesters after only a few attempts to get them to clear out 30 mins before curfew.  I mean... law enforcement had no other recourse. They couldn't have waited another 30mins. They couldn't have tried to disperse the crowd w/ other means. 

 

Tear gas the sons of bitches and fire on them w/ rubber bullets ASAP! That's the American way!!

There was no attempt to get the protesters to disperse multiple times. It's just more right wing propaganda. They waited till an appointed time and cleared the protesters out so Trump could walk across the street. We know what happened. Its not disputed by anyone on the ground nor by any media agency whether domestic or foreign.

Quick poll.....choose one:

 

A) Respect and protect the First Amendment right for American citizens to peacefully assemble and air grievances with the government.

 

OR 

 

B)  Haven them forcibly driven away in favor of  an awkward and unnecessary photo op.

 

We know which one POTUS chose.

How many times do they need to ask? 4? 5? 17? 122?

How about wait 30 minutes until the curfew kicks in, after which the police have every right to clear the area?
 

The fact that POTUS doesn’t feel like waiting 30 minutes for a photo op does not supercede the citizens’ right to peaceful assembly as guaranteed by the constitution.

In case you missed it the first time...

I think it will be difficult for Trumpers to acknowledge this fully or else the narrative that Trump/Barr are NOT jackbooted thugs forcibly clearing out a church area — bishop included — for a pathetically transparent and contemptible photo op starts to wane. Dissonance must prevail, so deep down I figure they’ll always believe the protesters were asked.

It's called damage control. There are no reports from anyone that was on the ground that corroborates the statement by the park police.
