At 0:46, right center of video: "Black Bloc" member running behind police lines. 0:21....UGH! MY EYES!
So obvious it hurts: The police are here to preserve disorder.
I'm cynical if not jaded about most corruption.
But, this stuff angers me each time I see it and it makes me wanna slap some stoopid cops.
"Oh, we were assigned to blend in and monitor the crowd" they tell us.
"Well then, why did you perform violent street theater like breaking picture windows and trashing the police car that conveniently had its computer removed?" I'd love to ask.
The answer is obvious. Large gatherings of peaceful protesters frighten cops, and terrify the power elite. And both believe that to be inherently subversive.
And when the s*** hits the fan, if I were a cop, I wouldn't feel safe leaving my home/family to go to work if this shit keeps up.
When I lived in LA in the early 80's I worked with off duty LAPD guys. I got to know them pretty well and I became an unofficial bootleg armorer by modifying their revolvers for them. (One retired LT and a still active SGT had me replace the hammers on their snub noses so they could again be cocked. All LAPD revolvers were modified for dbl action-only by grinding the full cock lip off the hammers. I also performed minor repairs, trigger jobs and mods for some 4" bbl'ed duty guns)
Because they (the white ones at least) considered me a friendly I was privy to some amazing conservations.
Once I heard an officer explaining to another that the German Civil authorities (police) kept their jobs and stayed on after the war by being non political, but he still had made plans to collect his family and head for his mountain safe house when the city exploded and there was no regaining control. I learned that all of the older officers had planned to retire well away from the city in places like Simi Valley. (which is why it was selected for the trial of the Rodney King Four)
Those white cops were well aware of the potential minority explosion and endless cannibal blood fest that was and is Los Angeles. They also knew that their no nonsense command presence (as depicted by the highly aggressive Sean Penn in the film "COLORS") would call for severe revenge, the kind we witnessed when Japanese Officers beheaded Allied soldiers with swords. But, more than likely it would be less of a ritual and more of a machete wilding, considering the black and Latino genetic predisposition for violence.
In places like Canada and many east coast cities, counties and states the cops feel relatively safe, and their arrogance is insufferable. Nothing short of an organized campaign of attacks (legal or otherwise) will cause them to rethink their "shooting, stomping and clubbing for Jesus" campaign against citizens.
See? Racist!! just kiddin'. but seriously. any provable data on this?
Men are more violent than women. One reason is higher testosterone. Nobody questions there's a genetic contribution to this.
Blacks have higher testosterone, combined with lower average reasoning ability, greater impulsiveness, and greater psychopathy. But they also have lower levels of neurosis, more fast-twitch muscle fiber, and greater group cohesion compared to whites; you can't fool a majority of them into consciously opposing their group interests or denying that they have any.
These things are heritable. Not 100% heritable, certainly, but their heritability is also not zero. That this is due partly or mostly to genetics is not considered controversial when discussing differences between individuals. But, in the absence of identification of specific contributing SNPs, alleles, or combinations thereof, it at least remains theoretically possible that differences in group averages are entirely due to environment. Nobody but suck-up social climbers actually believes this, or says they do.
But whether it's genetic or not, as a practical day-to-day matter, is almost irrelevant. People conflate cultural with tractable, and genetic with intractable.
It is important to remember though that the role of environment is not zero. Blacks in America were certainly better off some decades ago, by a number of measures of social pathology. And even if there is group genetic tendency to violence, that doesn't mean they're worse in some cosmic sense -- in God's eyes, say. It just means they are not well-adapted to the society in which early Americans placed them.
Interestingly, essentially tribal, animistic, aboriginal blacks are not especially violent compared to, say, South African blacks, or black African adherents of the old desert religions. Violence seems to be greatest where 1) blacks have been introduced to alien(white) ideas and conditions and 2) whites have subsequently withdrawn or refrained from imposing their own authority.
