Far as I recall there was general laughter at delusional cookers protesting against their fantasy conspiracy theories. Posturing and performing for YouTube subs, sending money to grifter DV perpetrators like Yemini. Nazis popping their heads up for some of the action.
Who here "applauded" the cops?
If you the conspiracy theorists in here are applauding the cops now, why were they not back then?

You should join the army, it's a great life.
They won’t have me, even if Centrelink say I’m no longer disabled…
Some wanted them to swap the rubber bullets for real ones…
Well trying to find those posts from 3 years ago in the dozen threads they’d be scattered across would be quite difficult.

Hmm...
The DoI is a pretty important historical and philosophical document, RnF. It's the foundational pre-constitution document of the American nation-state; it's a statement on the purpose of government and an outlining of the rights of people to democracy over tyranny.
It's a bit weird that I've got to make a defense of those things in a thread about police brutality - which is, quite legitimately, government overreach directly against the rights of citizens - but that's Bigfooty for you.
I mean, the OG point of Guy Fawkes night was to burn him in effigy for the temerity of trying to blow up parliament; to shame him for engaging in a political act of destruction.
In short, the state emphasising its control over the act of violence.
It's actually a bit of irony that you asserted Guy Fawkes as a supposed giggle in my direction. All it demonstrates really is that you failed to understand fully the post you addressed, even if you identified elements of the post for its resemblance to anti-tyrrany rhetoric of years past.

Bone spurs?
You're right that I failed to understand fully the post I addressed,no way I was reading all that.
Bemused at the end to see the DoI thrown in
the Australian police brutality thread.
Nice misinformation Gauge

Ah, this old chestnut. Cookers vs Police is like watching a brawl between Collingwood and Carlton.
This has been explained to you many times.
Meanwhile, you cheer for police brutality when Extinction Rebellion blocks an intersection because your shitty Ford overheats.
Fair enough,but you have to remember there are people who don't write or read essays,like me.
I pare it down by only posting on BF on my phone.
Expo crew laundering money at the Crown Casino after party,very welcome.
Tipping Hobart to get the next one.
Big contract handed out to rejuvenate Wrest Point.
Iconic gambling den.
That wasn’t directed at you mate, there are plenty of others however. A 2 minute search has plenty of examples.
Here is one example from GP… how the narrative changes when the cause is something you sympathise with.
This is the biggest problem we face in society. It’s not our economic or social system, it’s our incapacity to be objective, and apply moral and ethical standards regardless of our stance on a particular issue.

Here's the entire post for context. Notice how it's eddiesmith that's being the hypocrite as he now supports police violence.
So you support the police violence against this week’s protesters, good to know.

Clean your reading glasses and try again eddie.
You said if you throw things like urine at the police you should expect violence. So you must support the police actions this week, good to see.

I'm not surprised that after 3 years you still can't understand a simple observation.
Expectation does not imply support.
You also said throwing urine was disgusting, so you must also condemn these protesters actions as well!
