What if the revolution wasn't televised and cops would just not show up?
Then you'd get everything before LA 92. Hell compared to today, even the coverage of that wasn't great. If you watch the various documentaries on the LA uprising, you'll see the same footage on pretty much all of them.
So what else can we do because like your example from 30 years ago, this does appear to be working to create chsnge we want to see.
Dunno, I just pointed out that in the history of the country the revolution being televised is a very new phenomenon.
True. It just feels like 50% of the protestors are there for the real reason, 45% jump in to be opportunistic, and 5% just to cause real problems and it drowns the whole message.
Luckily KC's last night was 99.9% peaceful. Couple taggers and a couple people broke windows. A lot of that comes with how well KCPD has handled themselves and are great at not turning up the pressure, which makes me think if cops aren't there at all, would the temperature be turned down even more?
Plaza is closing all tonight and tomorrow though. Tough.
