      although before saying "everywhere" would that area be democrat or republican voting? Have the protests spread into areas rural enough to be republican voting areas?
      btw I'm in Australia, so what you're saying makes sense to me, I'm thinking sort of like how our old coal producing towns on Newcastle & Wollongong have sort of been incorporated into Sydney's growth & urban sprawl & black lives matter protests have spread to those areas in Australia too, although in Australia it's more understandable, since our protests have been inspired by & support the American situation BUT they are also focused on our own Aboriginal deaths in custody issues & Aboriginal people have also been pushed out into those more distant areas of the city where housing is cheaper, or where they weren't originally killed off in such high numbers in the smallpox slaughter of them 230 years ago & so have always survived & not been drowned out by increasing white population noise, so it's not that surprising how many small town here are seeing big protests, but America I'm curious about, because the more rural areas tend to be republican voting & republican voters don't tend to be so supportive of black lives do they

I've watched peaceful protests get hijacked by neo-nazi arsonists. I have friends who joined the national guard to pay for school and protect their families from terrorism. Now those friends are forced to point weapons at those same family members. And all this is happening during a massively deadly virus. I'm angry, I'm hurt, I'm afraid. But mostly, I'm just feeling broken hearted. I love my community. I love my city, and seeing it like this hurts more than I could ever say.

      @John Duke generally the popular vote within the states determines the distribution of electoral votes. Many states require it and a couple split it by results. Additional states have been going this route as well.
      Also the electors that you're referring to in 2016 were in doing so in protest instead of voting for Trump. (They voted for others because it wasn't a partisan protest, nor did it change the outcome of the election.

    Quick note from a fellow protester regarding covid: I've see a lot of comments from people saying "what happened to caring about coronavirus?" This isn't like wanting to go to the beach or a sports game or even to work. No one in these BLM protests is downplaying the dangers of coronavirus, every single person there has had to weigh up the risks and ultimately made the decision to protest because this is a unique moment, this is our chance to make the most of the fact that police brutality and systemic racism is on everyone's minds and that everyone's talking about it. This is our chance to raise awareness and bring about real, lasting change. That's what makes it completely different from other groups who want to gather despite coronavirus. There's no real comparison.

    From my perspective in the UK it looks horrific and I fear for friends past and present in the U.S. In all of this, my mind keeps drifting back to a Labi Siffre song from the 80s
    “The more you refuse to hear my voice (ooh-weh ooh-weh ooh-weh ooh-weh)
    The louder I will sing
    You hide behind walls of Jericho (ooh-weh ooh-weh ooh-weh ooh-weh)
    Your lies will come tumbling
    Deny my place in time, you squander wealth that's mine
    My light will shine so brightly it will blind you
    Because there's
    Something inside so strong...”
    Stay safe people and be proud of your efforts to reclaim your country from the hate and bigotry.

If they don't get better after the sugar, call an ambulance".
      That's the dumbed down first aid management, designed for those to stupid to even know how to say it's name! "if you arrest someone for being drunk, but they say anything about diabetes, give them a cup of orange juice, just in case. DO NOT give injections!"

      Things are probably going to calm down a little. A lot of the troublemakers (many of whom have extensive criminal records) are showing up towards the ends of the protests, essentially hijacking the gatherings when the peaceful protesters start going home, and with the number of cops getting shot, the thugs who tag along have been getting cast out more and more. Seems like the whole mixed bag of protesters is sorting itself out as people get sick of all the bodies and carnage. Just gotta keep calm and try to get along.

    A retired Detroit cop I know looks at all this and he said to me, "When you go out expecting a riot - you're likely to get one. When you get geared up in riot gear, it tells you subconsciously that you are heading into real danger - especially the young cops. So now they are on edge with their adrenaline pumping, and then protesters see them advancing like an occupying army and they get scared, angry, and on edge with their adrenaline up - and now you have a powder keg that can easily be set off by either side."

While I don't expect local cops to be Navy SEALS, I was shocked to read a few years ago that a FEW police departments were having some success reducing police violence with some SEAL training methods. What most people DON'T know about SEALS may be the most impressive thing about them - they are as good at NOT harming people they should not as they are at harming the ones they should. They have very specific training methods to accomplish that.

TANKS. and much, MUCH more.
      (*dig just a little bit into that phrase 'surplus military equipment', and you'll find some seriously disturbing facts- all this BAZILLIONS of $$$ worth of weaponery and equipment is made by contractors who are in bed with the federal government.)
      anyway, moving on. look at the police in other democracies. the uniforms and body gear, the cars they drive, the markings on those cars, even the sound of the sirens. then look at the same in the usa back before the 1990s. in a DEMOCRACY, where the police are there to 'protect and serve', they project that by their presence. look at police cars- in the uk, they are painted in bright, easily recognizab!e, non-threatening colors. in the usa, from coast to coast, they used to be distinctively black and white, with big distinctive light bars on the roof and 'protect and serve' emblazened on the car.
      i was in a sleepy, artistic, upscale tiny town in the desert southwest when the police got their new cars. powerful, sleek, all-black ominous looking machines without ANY visibly outward markings or equipment to identify them as police cars. stand close enough and you noticed that very discreetly placed on the black matt body paint was a small, slightly shiny black emblem of the police department- black on black, barely visible. and no more 'protect and serve'. no more light bar on the roof. just a mean machine that is indistinguishable from any other car on the street, except for its foreboding look.

      Adelaide, South Australia tomorrow cleared by my boss the police commissioner. People can protest so long as they maintain 1.5m and he says hopes everyone will maintain that and be peaceful. This is after our PM said no to protests due to COVID-19 (remember we're in winter now), and NSW govt and police have refused consent for protest that they successfully had upheld in the NSW supreme court today. Though I understand the issues (current COVID-19 cases, high population density, recent unrest after cop suspended for excessive force on an indigenous youth this week), but it's deeply disappointing. As a cop, I want everyone to be and feel safe, and to freely protest, publicly express their fear, anger, and grief. I say they as I am not permitted to protest. But I am there in spirit.

      Idk if ur going by ur own experience in NY or by having watched footage, but ur absolutely rt, and in the city that welcomed so many of our forebears, no less. I'm a NY'er, and I am so disgusted with the NYPD (n so many other depts too) and until recently, I at least respected some of them, while showing respect to all of them. The entire department and everyone in it has lost my respect (n that of everyone I know) forever. They cannot ever earn it back.
      The nation's LE seriously fucked up. If they thought their job was hard BEFORE George Floyd?? Oh, these MF'ers dont even KNOW what theyre in for. The rest of us will not oft come into contact with them...at least when we can help it. Their angry, power-tripping, dumb asses? They'll be coming into contact with US, all day, EVERY day, till their retirement.
      Trump, the GOP, as well as any/all cops & Nat'l Guardsmen treating any protesters with anything but decency & courtesy are traitors to this nation and its values. NONE OF THEM, INCLUDING EVERY COP in the country, deserves anything but our collective revulsion.
