Get ready for the next wave of “spontaneous outrage,” set to spread across the country just like the totally organic George Floyd protests did in 2020 — with pre-printed signs, coordinated messaging, and matching bail funds.
Yesterday, LAPD’s police chief said activists are now using lethal force against officers. "The violence is escalating... It's getting increasingly worse and more violent ... there’s no limit to what they are doing to our officers … we are overwhelmed,” he said.
CLIP: LAPD Chief Jim McDonnell says rioters are now using weapons that can kill his officers (2:28).
It’s not just commercial-grade fireworks. The rioters, Chief McDonnell explained, have cinder blocks in their backpacks, breaking them up with hammers and throwing chunks at police.
It’ll be interesting to see how this “organic uprising” plays out nationwide. The rules have changed in many places. Post-2020, we now have uncensored social media to blast through corporate media filters. And after 2020’s summer of “mostly peaceful” arson, many states — including Florida — passed tough anti-rioting laws.
Here in the Sunshine State, since 2021 it’s now perfectly legal to keep driving if protestors decide to turn I-95 into a drum circle. Block a highway, become roadkill. “Rioting” is now a felony here, with a five-year prison sentence and mandatory overnight incarceration without bail.
Other red states have passed anti-rioting laws and more are flirting with them. One suspects that national ICE protests might prompt more legislators to get off the fence. Thanks to DOGE, a lot of federal cash has been trimmed from NGO budgets.
And let us never forget: while Americans were being fined for paddleboarding alone or burying their parents with more than ten mourners, “protests” were magically exempt from lockdowns. Maskless crowds chanting shoulder-to-shoulder were declared essential — as long as they were shouting the right slogans.
That double standard has not been forgotten. The public’s appetite for elite-sanctioned nonsense is dwindling fast. The mood has shifted. What once passed for righteous outrage now looks a lot more like organized extortion. And voters — especially in red and purple states — aren’t in the mood to play along.
Blue states will be hardest hit.
