I'm feeling extremely cynical today, and I can't help but think that the police wants there to be a riot, and is helping to incite one.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, and wtf is the point of evacuating people? Do they think they are getting potential rioters dispersed, or keeping non-rioters out of harm's way?

Okay, so the press conference should start any minute now.

I hate to say this, Rebecca, but your child is not that bright.
I am reminded of the hats I wore every day in the winter....as far as the corner of my street. It is not that hard to get over on your parents!

I think getting non-rioters out of harm's way. It sounds like they were going to off-campus student housing.

Wow. The county prosecutor says he's never seen an officer act this "asinine" in 30 years of prosecution. Prosecutor says the officer should never have been a police officer.
I am really afraid of this video.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I'm not *quite* as cynical in that I don't think it's intentional, but I do think it's an almost unconscious embracing of a riot as the right and obvious response and so they are playing right into it. Like it's too much effort to actively try to think of a different solution.
