Trump going to Kenosha is absolute genius on the part of his campaign managers. White Americans see more protests = votes. He should visit numerous majority African-American, impoverished areas in Minnesota, Michigan, Wisconsin, Florida, Arizona, North Carolina and whereever else is a close race.
There was a video posted on twitter (now deleted) of the guy in the white shirt running after someone through the intersection and saying “I’m going to fucking kill you”. I think he saw the whole thing. And I’m pretty sure you can hear him saying “Jay! Jay!” as he approaches Jay. I guess he’s Chandler Pappas, who’s also a criminal of course.
That’s a must read thread. Great stuff.
This account no longer exists. Probably means she got harassed off of Twitter.
Probably because I was up most of the night and because I’m a bad person, but I laughed when the woman appeared to ask the shot/dying man if he needed medical attention
Horrifying video though. ACAB
Even the Beastie Boys had to get licensed to ill.

In his defence, @Rivaldo has talked here before about his struggles with mental health issues so despite the gross posts maybe we should cut him some slack and try not to escalate things, while encouraging him to take a break so the big-hearted Rivaldo we all love can return.
(from someone who had a regrettable run in with him before I knew this)

Everyone should be given a little slack during these times, I don’t take rude posts as personal or even want to discect every little point to to max etc, sometimes it’s just better to know we are not all perfect and struggle a little everyday dealing with the shitshow we have atm.
@Rivaldo is a brother and a good person a heart & I’m interested in hearing his story one day.
Peace brother, hope your well today.

It’s there it’s just locked. I followed her before she locked it.
Btw from what it sounds the cops were better prepared to deal with the guy than she was. She didn’t seem to be a trained field EMT or anything. And it doesn’t look like anyone got shoved that hard - just pulled off. She may have been conflating the shove one of them got from Chandler Pappas.
What makes you say the cops were better prepared?
Because they’re trained in field trauma. It’s not clear if either of these medics were. I read the twitter and didn’t get the impression they had much medical training. They definitely aren’t nurses or EMTs.
Yeah it now says the tweet is private. Previously I got the message that the page/account did not exist.
I trust their medical training about as much as I trust their diversity and de-escalation training. I’d take the “medic” if I were out there.

Maybe if she says I’m a nurse, doctor, or EMT they let her stay until the medic arrives. But these protest medics seem to just be people trying to help wounded people with no real training.
There’s a picture with official medics. But I’m not sure how long it took them to get there. Her account already isn’t super accurate. So I doubt the guy just sat there and bled for 20 minutes (which isn’t what she says but it’s kind of implied).
I doubt any of it matters as he looked dead on the scene and completely lifeless when his buddy rolled him over. His buddy was immediately trying to do CPR which says he probably wasn’t breathing.
