LAPD DELIBERATELY shoots an Aussie Reporter with a rubber bullet

Because we want them to be there.

It's generally considered a good thing that reporters are on hand to record the news because people like to be inform about what's going on.

Since we all feel we benefit from and approve of reporters being there, we have an expectation that their safety is desirable. This can be facilitated if the cops, the Guard, the Marines, etc simply ignore them, act as if they aren't there.

Those aren’t special protections.
 
Oh, of course. I forgot about the predictable excuses. Her injury was all on Trump and his deliberately provocative action. The demonstration was entirely peaceful until Trump's thugs showed up to intimidate your citizens, exercising their right to protest.

Doesn’t take much to trigger a lefty protester into doing something illegal. Wearing the wrong clothes for instance.
 
the car was still moving freely.
it wasn't blocked.
there was no difficulty driving,
She's an obstacle, which makes driving through her (especially in a way that avoids damage to the vehicle and to her person) difficult. Give it up.
the car was still driving forward. the video is quite clear. there was plenty of room to the side of her for a car to proceed, and plenty of time for her to move if need be, given how slowly the car was going., who of course were proceeding slowly giving the general chaos, the riot police, etc, as any careful driver would.
of course you pointed earlier to a PICTURE as if a STILL SHOT proves something about a MOVING car hahahhahahahahahahah

now are you done posting stupid shit for the day, or do you still have a quota to fill? lol
or given this is a new day, do you have a new quote of right wing stupidity to post? maybe you can point to more STILL PICTURES to whine about a MOVING car ghahahahahahahaha
See folks? This is why many reasonable people stopped engaging with leftists. It's also probably why the cop pepperballed the dumbass reporter in the video.

What a fine example of a 'free' country where crossing a street in the 'wrong' place can get you arrested! :ROFLMAO:
It comes with being advanced societies that have things like roads. Do you not use or benefit from the use of motorized vehicles or something?

Our roads are generally far different than those in England, or here in New Zealand. Roads in the States are large roads meant to move cars along quickly and safely. There are clear marked pedestrian crossings so yeah, people crossing in areas they are not meant to, across 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 lined roads (basically highways)... they can get a ticket. It England and here roads are dinky. Two lanes with lots of shops where pedestrians actually stand in the middle of the road on the white line as cars whiz by on both sides... I had never seen anything like it, this crazy dangerous practice, until I moved here.

Trump literally took the gun from the officer and shot people.

It's all his fault. He overpowered the LAPD officer... and people will still support him, for some reason.
 
Most Americans have no problem with immigrants.
MAGA does.
Many of them are immigrants themselves. We are a nation of immigrants! All they ask is that people follow the law and not try to cut the line
MAGA doesn't want legal immigrants either.
. And if they break any more of our laws they need to be prioritized for deportation, which is what the Trump Administration is doing.
Absolutely false. The Trump administration is not prioritizing people who have broken more laws. In fact, that is what Obama and Biden were doing. Trump dumped the prioritization and just went for volume, including deporting legally present people for shit like typos on an immigration form.
Democrats think criminal aliens should be set free instead of being detained and handed over to federal immigration authorities.
Democrats think it is neither the legal nor financial responsibility of local PD to do ICE's job for them. How many billions more in unfunded Federal mandates will make you happy?
So the feds are coming to get them themselves, and if they happen to come across some more illegals while doing that, well, what can I say? The law says they should be deported, too. 🤷‍♂️
Admitting your previous statement about prioritization is false.

And it's hilarious that you bring up what the law says, seeing as how the MAGA position is that no legal protections exist for someone accused of being an illegal immigrant.

If the best argument you have is posting like this, you've lost.

MAGA!!!!
 
Where is the traffic going to go? If someone was about to run her over they would then drive over the cops wouldn’t they? Idiocy.


Traffic?


They shot a man for traffic?


I guess that's one way to reduce rush hour congestion, but tends to have a negative impact on the mood of the drivers who have to get around the bodies.

Nope
Plenty of room
Plenty of time to move out of the way
Not an obstacle
Car was not blocked
You lied

See folks? This is why it's fun to point out the stupid posts of the right

No. We've won. Trump will soon be out of power, and never elected again. He's already unpopular. He can't get anything through congress, and has been proven to be feckless.

You MAGA guys have already lost, and you don't even know it. Stop defending Trump.

She needed to get the shot of the police marching toward her, she could have reported it from a hotel room.

But it doesn't matter she'll be okay. I'm not outraged I'm unsympathetic because again she had to get her shot. This will probably get her a lot of popularity within her media circles that's probably why she was out there.
 
True. You could almost smell his desperation
Desperately pointing out people complaining cuz some stupid Lady got a boo boo?

It's probably a big turning point in her career. I wouldn't have known who she was if she hadn't made herself a target.

And once again it's okay she'll be just fine.
