LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Nearly 100 people were arrested during protests in Louisville on Wednesday, according to a release from Louisville Metro Police Department (LMPD) Sgt. Lamont Washington.

Sgt. Washington said one person was arrested for shooting two LMPD officers Wednesday evening. The officers are expected to survive their injuries.

Others were arrested for the following reasons, according to the release from LMPD:

Damaging businesses along Bardstown Road in the Highlands Removing concrete barriers at Market and 6th to allow vehicle traffic, jumping on police vehicles and damaging Public Works trucks acting as barricades Unlawful assembly violations for refusing to leave Jefferson Square Park after several orders to disperse were given Violating the city's 72-hour curfew put in place by Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer

Sgt. Washington also said multiple businesses in Louisville were looted early Thursday morning, including two City Gear stores and a pawn shop on Preston Highway. More information on the looting incidents is expected to be released later in the day.

Protests began after the Jefferson County Grand Jury recommended three counts of wanton endangerment for former LMPD officer Brett Hankison for his actions on the night of Breonna Taylor's death on March 13.

Hankison's charges were not directly related to Taylor's death and the grand jury decided that the other officers involved would not be indicted.

In my estimation the time for waiting on city, county, and State officials to resolve the riots and unrest in their jurisdictions has passed.

The unfettered ability of violent and destructive people to run rampant through cities and neighborhoods burning, looting, beating, and shooting citizens living and working there has become intolerable.

Those leading these law breaking dissidents are the worst sort of haters on earth because they are taking advantage of low intellect persons by inciting them through race baiting rhetoric and feigned support for Blacks that they claim are victims of police brutality when 90% of the time Blacks are victims of other Blacks, NOT COPS. Cops killing Blacks is actually an insignificant number in a country of 330 million people. These killings in many instances are justified, even though any collateral damage where innocent folks are killed is tragic, sad, must have a devastating effect upon the families of the slain.

Americans need to get real. Cops operating in high crime areas where gangs and other citizens shoot each other on a regular basis are sure to be on high alert which is a prescription for accidental killings that no one wants to happen.

Adults with any ability to think like mature adults know that this is true. The truth is that in most cases the cops have to operate according to protocols and standards meant to make law enforcement officers stand responsible for their actions. The cops are required to account for the ammo expended in shooting incidents and file reports that detail their actions in most situations. When exigent circumstances prevail the officers involved are out there on their own often times in an area where the overall population there are drug dealing hardened criminals very capable of murdering cops and do so without any rules to adhere to or superiors requiring answers.

Are there bad cops ? No doubt. Are there racist cops ? You bet. There are bound to be some bad apples among the police forces but their numbers are minuscule. The hard truth is that the current actions of these mobs of screaming zombies shooting cops and other citizens will do nothing to reduce racism or the natural instinct to survive in a dangerous world and especially when under fire.

The vigilante mobs rampaging through cities and neighborhoods creating mayhem will be stopped either by official intervention or by citizens fed up with the coddling of so-called protesters and others that are really vigilantes that prefer to target innocent people and businesses that have nothing whatsoever to do with police brutality or deprivation of civil rights complained of by the BLM and Antifa insurrectionists.

The fake pandemic and wearing of masks is another instance of affording protection for the thugs terrorizing the country. The medical officials know that the masks are more of a health hazard than a benefit but they do make identifying these troublemakers that are shooting cops more difficult. Allowing the mob to intimidate and threaten innocent citizens is a huge failure when these acts are assaults under every State's penal code. When elderly people are attacked by the animals that are low intellect cowards and should be put down like the dogs they truly are.

Any honest observer of today's milieu would consider that one side is law abiding and peaceful, tolerant and willing to debate the issues with resolution in mind. However, the desire to reach a solution will become a moot point when their families are threatened. The other side are militant radicals being used by those funding them. These criminals are subverting justice and causing more racist hate that will further their agenda to chip away at the American culture and damage the economy by creating chaos that is sporadic and has nothing to do with saving Black lives.

The government has all of the tools necessary to determine who is funding this terror and lock down their bank accounts, and arrest them for insurrection and subversion.

When those collecting your tax dollars fail in their duties to provide a safe environment for businesses and the population to enjoy they are derelict. When they shut down the public places that your tax dollars have paid for denying you entrance to parks and other recreational areas based upon a viral illness that has been overblown and even manipulated to appear 1000 times more dangerous than it is in actuality they are INCOMPETENT. When loved ones in elder care homes are not allowed family visitors even though they are in the very last stages of life is beyond cruel. Surely a means of a safe visit of some value that is threat free can be implemented otherwise what is life's purpose ? Church goers are prohibited and rioters permitted - Beam me up Scotty, the hypocrisy of the government on one side and the hypocrisy of the BLM and Antifa thugs on the other is especially intolerable in the midst of the continual media harping on the virus that didn't work. It didn't work because it was like everything else made in China, that doesn't work.

Without continuing to state the intolerable and artificial incarceration of hard working, tax paying, law abiding people in their own homes some unable to work others losing their jobs and businesses, what are you paying for with your tax dollars ??? You do not owe the politicians or their governments for doing nothing to prevent the destruction of everything you have built, do you ?

I am thankful that many of my departed friends and family are not alive to see this shameful display of everything un-American being acquiesced to by the government and the people once admired by the world for good reason.

When shooting cops becomes routine and citizens are expected to stand by and wait for some thug to beat their ass some might think it's time to become proactive in the approach to settle differences "permanently.

Any attempt at "organizing" those of us on the "right or conservatives" would be immediately crushed by the government

That is a fact. """Other than TRUMP the entire government would come down on our heads""".

Most of those holding positions within the FEDERAL BUREAUCRACY have shown themselves to be the #1 enemy of once free people around the world and it appears they have failed to "timely" implement the GLOBAL SATANIC GOVERNMENT and plan B is in motion now.

Plan B is saturated with lootings, murders, and sexy babes with orange hair, bad breath and really bad feminine hygiene destroying cities they didn't build. This coupled with a China virus that like all Chinese shit didn't work and has been embellished to plague status by the media has the country pissing their pants.

Associated restrictions have been put in place to see just how fucking stupid the self-incarcerated population of the world is, and how the media can convince them to wear masks that don't work, stay inside, justifying work at home confinement or quit working altogether, social distance, no church services (because they are our gods), submit to mandated vaccines and just shut the fuck up and do as you're told.

If ever there was a time to question the "establishment" and focus upon the piss poor operation of the most blessed nation on earth by the criminal class in D.C. that have continually lynched, robbed, raped, murdered, and warred against everyone in our family trees as far back as 1776, that time is now if it's not too late.

Even if it is too late why not get rid of all that ammo you've been hoarding ? You would have to agree that it's better to "give" than receive ! When I see those poor and mistreated BLM peaceful protesters and Antifa folks I am immediately filled with a warm feeling and an immeasurable desire to "donate" to their causes to such an extent that they might disappear from the streets and have no need to protest anymore.
