Police Fire Pepper Balls At Reporter and Camera in Louisville. Not A Big Surprise.
It looks to me like the cop with the pepper ball gun was firing directly at the reporter and camera. That's no surprise to anyone who has heard of the Stanford Prison Experiment ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanford_prison_experiment ) After awhile, the police begin to think of the press as the ones who are CAUSING, or at least PROLONGING the protest and the violence, and turn on them. Pepper spray them, arrest them, etc. And then, if you have both a police force that's hostile to the press, backed up by a GOVERNMENT that's hostile to the press, pretty soon you find yourself in Putin's Russia.
= new reply since forum marked as read
fake news, deep state conspiracy, etc. There are RWers online claiming this is all part of deep state false flag operations, in lots of cities across America.
