At the end he says he was trying to get out of the intersection. They had already told them on the broadcast to move. He’s between them and protesters. Then some action takes place after and now he’s in danger cause he didn’t listen to the commands. You’re not going to get that from a cnn clip of the event. On the live broadcast you heard it and they never acknowledged and it wasn’t edited out cause it seemed irrelevant at the time. Passes the 5 second window be cut out. Next thing you know the above happens then he’s ready to listen and move but it’s to late. The reporters comments and actions let you know this as well had you see the start of the broadcast.


dude, i watched the live broadcast...its the same clip. No amount of mental gymnastics are going to help you.

There was no need for them to be arrested.

........................................................................man.

the point is, the same police stupidity is consistently recurring. this is not a good look for them while riots are going on.



There’s going to be mistakes made during these conditions. Put yourself in law enforcements shoes and consider what’s going on.

lel

Policy stupidity was the incident leading up to all of this. Authorities stepping back did not help, the situation is being brought back under control.

People getting in the way of the authorities on the front line are removed from the scene which is simply what happened here. Guy will be back out in a heartbeat.

You should get back to your senses and understand that authorities are taking back control after seeing that stepping back has resulted in this amount of looting and property damage.

And this is YOU in OP:



Suggesting the motivation for the arrest is racism. JSP mods should look at this hate topic and close it.


whut??? LOOOOOOOOOOL

Exactly. Even if someone hadn’t watched the live broadcast. Consider his position. In the middle of the intersection with cops on one side and rioters/protesters on the other. Even if someone didn’t see the live broadcast doesn’t that seem like an unsafe position and cops would ask you to move?

i did not say that they arrested him because he was black.


i guess you dont understand the whole point that this is not a good look for the police department after a white officer kills a black man.

a black reporter doing nothing wrong (see the video which clearly proves that he was trying to figure out here to go after a protester ran into their group when they were quite a safe distance away from any action). The press have been in war zones and hotter spots than this.

So I would rethink your comment.


You kind of inferred it. If race wasn't important why would you mention it? They arrested the white film crew too. But yet you solely say "black reporter". Lol. Im not saying I agree with the arrest either or not. I'm also seeing a very limited time clip of it. Apparently they were pretty quickly released.

They also arrested his white producer...

In all reality, he got arrested for being fake news... Stop giving these huge news corporations millions of dollars for click bait
