This was the seen in Philly today. This happened about 5 hours ago. An exceedingly peaceful protestor trying to be nice to police and military deployed was going around handing out flowers. She was immediately arrested for doing so. No violence of any kind... she offered a flower, the military guy reached out to accept it, BAM, down for arrest.
She is a well known Kindergarten Teacher here and apparently arrested for crossing the barriers even though clearly non violent.
They wonder why people are rioting.. this shit right here.
@freemo Yeah you're not allowed to cross the barriers
@freemo I think this is terrible, but they probably did it to avoid being accuse of having double standards. In Atlanta, news reporters complained about a family not being arrested for breaking curfew. The family was handing out water and snacks to cops.
@DuchessOfMars whatever theri reason if their goal is to deescelate the situation they just failed.
@freemo
That's Russia, or some other police state, right there.
@freemo Everyon is so on edge right now
