Concerning all the complaints that the crowds in the park might not have had significant warning before the tear gas...
I don't care if they were technically warned some arbitrary short time before the event in question. /1 #GeorgeFloyd

They already knew they were not supposed to be in that location (once you state burning stuff, you don't get to claim your just in a "public space," and were in contention or that area with the s3ecret service back and forth for at least a day before. /2
So let's not pretend they didn't know they were on borrowed time. /3
You don't get to alternate between rioting and attempting to break into the White House while injuring secret service agents for hours, then pause and suddenly, you are a "peaceful protest," and you must be treated as such. /4
That sort of silly "red light, green light!" game is for children, not security perimeter outside the White House.
Of course, these are the familiar tactics of terrorists, which is why Antifa employs them. /5

You engage in violence that can only be countered by force, then when force is applied claim you were peaceful and the force was over-reaction. /6
You see this all over the middle east; force checkpoints to be armed and armored against truck bombs where the only possible defense is to shoot when someone violates a halt order... then wait for some innocent to violate /7
the order and scream about how that innocent person got killed by the tyrants. /8
Same thing here., riot for days, burn assault, injury, and attempt to destroy and invade government buildings than when you decide to take a break for a while demand to be treated as "peaceful." Sorry, it doesn't work that way. /9 (end)
