Damn it why do police always move back after a show of force.

Because they don't actually have enough people to contain a mob with full force. You can't threaten overwhelming force if you don't have the numbers. The more city blocks they advance, the more territority they have to protect behind them, and they get spread too thing. You have to strategically plan what you're going to hold.

If you watch these streams and look at the cop line instead of the protesters, you'll notice that when the cops advance there's always a single point where they stop and step back, because someone issued the command to "re-form the line". They'll wait until whoever they capture is secured, hauled away or released, so that their backline is clear. Then command makes the call to advance another street, or fall back and strengthen a position behind them. It's advance/retreat until they clear the ground they feel they can hold.

If the cops ever get drawn into a multi-street advance, protesters can hide in buildings and get behind them, and you do not want to be a smaller contingent of cops that gets surrounded by these lunatics.
 
Welp the protesters now control the Donut shop

You’ll also see the cops almost always leave one exit path for protestors. That’s by design. They might box them in on three sides but there should be some way out.
 
Might as well double down on my civil war musings. The Battle Hymn of the Republic is considered the first true national anthem of the USA. It was the Song of the Union as it went to war against the secessionist Confederates. The Star Spangled Banner wasn't introduced until the 20th century as an official anthem, largely because the Battle Hymn was considered too devisive.

Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord;
He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored;
He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword:
His truth is marching on.

They have builded Him an altar in the evening dews and damps;
I can read His righteous sentence by the dim and flaring lamps:

I have read a fiery gospel writ in burnished rows of steel:
"As ye deal with my contemners, so with you my grace shall deal";
Let the Hero, born of woman, crush the serpent with his heel,
His day is marching on.

He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat;
He is sifting out the hearts of men before His judgment-seat;
Oh, be swift, my soul, to answer Him! Be jubilant, my feet!
Since God is marching on.

In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea,
With a glory in His bosom that transfigures you and me.
As He died to make men holy, let us die to make men free,
While God is marching on.

(Chorus)
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Our God is marching on.

Make of it as you will, but IMO if the Star Spangled Banner needs to go because its "racist", we should replace it with this.
 
I'm sorry to hear that, but glad to hear you're getting out. I'm really curious what happens in these cities when it's nothing but woke White leftists, antifa, and black people. It could turn into a really interesting, no rules 50s era study that we're no longer allowed to do "ethically". I have to keep positive in some way!
CHAZ is a nice little microcosm of what you can expect. They've got about 6 blocks and half a dozen shootings in two weeks with multiple dead. Now expand that to an entire city.

For a bunch of homicidal fascists ultra-violent cops "literally trying to killllll meeeeee", they give tons of chances for people to just go home and stop being stupid.

You'll see protesters shriek about kettling sometimes, which is when they close that 4th side off and basically siege/starve them out. That happened once or twice at the start, when the mobs were smaller and the cops were fresh. But mostly now they're just herding the mob out of some pre-planned area.

I'd go for Stars and Stripes forever
Let martial note in triumph float
And liberty extend its mighty hand
A flag appears 'mid thunderous cheers,
The banner of the Western land.
The emblem of the brave and true
Its folds protect no tyrant crew;
The red and white and starry blue
Is freedom's shield and hope.

Let eagle shriek from lofty peak
The never-ending watchword of our land;
Let summer breeze waft through the trees
The echo of the chorus grand.
Sing out for liberty and light,
Sing out for freedom and the right.
Sing out for Union and its might,
O patriotic sons.
Second strain
𝄆 Other nations may deem their flags the best
And cheer them with fervid elation
But the flag of the North and South and West
Is the flag of flags, the flag of Freedom's nation. 𝄇
Trio
Hurrah for the flag of the free!
May it wave as our standard forever,
The gem of the land and the sea,
The banner of the right.
Let tyrants remember the day
When our fathers with mighty endeavor
Proclaimed as they marched to the fray
That by their might and by their right
It waves forever.
Grandioso
Hurrah for the flag of the free.
May it wave as our standard forever
The gem of the land and the sea,
The banner of the right.
Let tyrants remember the day
When our fathers with mighty endeavor
Proclaimed as they marched to the fray,
That by their might and by their right
It waves forever.


Looks like the cops are holding their ground (for) now

If that were to happen, it would anger the euphoric atheists for all the mentions of Jesus and Lord. I kind of hope it gets changed to this now just to see the ensuing meltdown.
