L.A. police may have fired upon children "LA Chalk Walk"

You Decide....

When reporting events, you must get the timing right. 1) Cops arrest 8 chalkers 2) cops shoot projectiles. 3) citizens resist.
L.A. police may have fired upon children in LA Chalk Walk.

2. So good to know that LAPD

has cleared up all crime in the Los Angeles area and are now bored enough to go after "chalkers".

Or - evil "chalkers" destroying LA - police act quickly to put end to their cunning plan to take out the city.



I have to wonder how many officers are saying to themselves "I signed up for this???" - I blame the higher ups all the way to City Hall - sadly the underlings obey the orders and things get ridiculously out of control.

I thought the LA mayor was a good guy?

4. It doesn't

 

Their were cops that fired bean bags and rubber bullets into the crowd and there were children there.
I'm sure that cops check ID's before they shoot.
What is the legal age to be fired upon in California ?

YOU DECIDE ...
YOU DO THE MATH ...

Here are more graphic photos if you want...

6. Who's going to wash down all that chalk mess and who's going to pay for it?

It seems like a very stupid way to protest and it also endangered those children that play on the chalk walk. How about shutting down an intersection with a sit-in or a sit-in at city hall? This childish stuff just pisses people off. BTW I'm a radical and was in Chicago's Lincoln Park in the '68 protests.

8. You cant be series. "Who's going to wash down all that chalk mess....?"

Protests piss people off. THAT'S WHAT THEY ARE INTENDED TO DO.

Next you'll be telling us that there is a right way and wrong way to protest.

10. That's exactly what I said, I'm glad you got it!

Protests in a children's play area are just plain stupid, and yeah forcing people to clean up a mess does not win converts.

13. Well if they are that pissed off...

Perhaps they should channel their piss in the proper direction.
It's freakin' chalk, it washes off.

9. Nature will do it for free....it is just chalk.

But why they don't do sit ins any more is because you will be arrested..and they can probe your anus and humiliate you when they arrest you...and most people are afraid of it...with good reason because the courts are not you your side.
And that is how it works....it is the same reason why the good Germans did nothing to stop the brown shirts...fear works to control people.

17. Occupy LA use "sidewalk chalk" which is designed to be washed off. It is water-soluble.

Yet in the LA Times story, you can see a man using spray paint to cover it. It was rainy that day and much of it washed off.

The only people who endangered children were LAPD. Period.
