#1 just hours after Manhattan's district attorney announced publicly that demonstrators would not be charged for simple curfew violations amid the protests.

...So we have a curfew, announced with great fanfare and many threats of foreboding and dread if it is not obeyed, and by the by we're not gonna prosecute any violators.

I give the hell up. I can no longer even try and imagine the mental gymnastics necessary for Our Betters to decree on one hand and wave away on the other.

#5 Heh Spike that wasn't a "neck-hold". But if it would help you I learned combat choke outs from my Okinawan Sensei. Pretty sure he wasn't Jewish. Would happy to show you.

Manhattan DA Cyrus Vance, the gift that keeps killing.

#6 So a judge didn't appoint another judge to see if the DA could drop the charges? Asking for a friend. .

#7 I would suggest protesters be relocated to the nearest University as I am certain they will be welcomed there. They can even use the bathrooms.

#8 everyone knows 'men and women of color' can't be expected to follow the rules

I mean that's practically one of the left's commandments by now.

#9 /\ Need proof? Drive I-285 around Atlanta. Westbound Montgomery - Birmingham sector, most effective evidence. Mind the left lane and crotch-rockets, that is if you wish to live.

#10 The police need to pull their presence from all state buildings that push this nonsense. Then announce they will not respond to calls to neighborhoods where the politicians live.

Basically declare those areas free fire zones.

#16 DA declined to charge rioters then oddly the same folks were arrested the following night for rioting but unfortunately their legs were broken during arrest.
