12 cops, ~80kusd a year each, and one police van, ~40kusd.
All coming out of you and me for something we didn't ask for.
Yes, I know this example is in germany, IF it had been in 'murica we would have seen the adults interfering get gunned down as dangerous to the safety of the tyrannical clowns, in their clown costumes.
Clowns, in clown costumes, chasing a little kid over a scrap of colorful cloth.

You know, dear reader, whether you pay your taxes, or not, and whether or not you support what is being done by those that took your tax dollars, you carry some amount of the karma attached to what happens when you tolerate rule by force.
I know, I know, it's scary going out on a limb to do the right thing when the whole world says to just cheat a little, but, when all is said and done, at the very least, you will have newfound respect for yourself every time you choose to do right when you could've chosen to do nothing.
IF it was easy, everybody would be doing it.
Death to Discord!
Long live Sting!
Looks like the reason for being chased was not a scrap of colorful cloth, as there were other people in the video with the same scrap of colorful cloth not being chased.
I have no idea what the reason was, but definitely wasn't the scrap of colorful cloth, there is something else to this story.
It's just a kid being a kid. It's not the states right or responsibility to interfere in minors. It takes a village to raise a child sure but it only takes one domestic terrorist such as the cops to ruin it.
how do you know? do you have more info about that video? mind sharing?
the video starts with the kid already being chased, do you know what happened before? that triggered the chase?
even if they commit a crime??
I'm from Brazil and "kids" under 18yo cannot be prosecuted. Drug cartels use a lot of "kids" as their soldiers.
Drug cartels spawn into existence because "governments" spawn them into existence.
I haven't found any video yet that shows what happened before or if even it shows more. I'll keep digging.
Regardless, cops are just cartels, gangs mafias, etc glorified by the public as some sort of legitimate force to rule and police everyone.
I don't know what the kid did or didn't do. It could very will be that the gop has had his ego hurt as is usually the case with these trigger happy pigs. Give a man authority over others and he will most likely abuse it.
my point was not the drug cartels, cops or the government. authority is something we learn since we are born, there is no escape, parents have authority over their kids.
my point is that kids still don't have maturity to have their own opinions, and end up being influenced by adults. a lot of times they are doing what they were told to do by adults.
that kid on that video should actually be in a sports field, not in a protest.
Check my other comment.
As for authority it's a superstition. Parents don't have ownership. People are not born to be owned like property which is what authority applies. Parents have a moral responsibility to guide their children into adulthood and during that process, mishaps happen.
I agree that children are not ready or experienced enough to tell whether the crowd their in is the right one to be with. But what we don't know here is, is that child really unattended at the event?
Also, it's not this kids first time being detained by police for the same reason and the protestors are abusing the scenario to spread their propaganda.
authority is not the same as ownership.
don't tell me... lol... I'm a parent of 3
I don't know what you call it, if it's authority, ownership or whatever word we can choose, but it's a fact that I have power over my kids, want it or not. Even if I'm a very relaxed parent, I still have power. We need to learn from very young the difference of right and wrong, we still live in a society and my freedom stops where it messes with yours. I teach my kids that all actions have consequences, good and bad, and only with authority/power/respect I can do that.
now if you want to talk about abuse of power/authority, then I can agree with you and talk a lot of shit about government/cops/etc.
I found this article that may shed some more light. Apparently, according to this source, the same kid as been used to propagate anti Israel propaganda.
I'm not against Israel or Palestine. Nor am I against keeping children safe from harm. However chasing a kid in a peaceful protest just because he was presumably "unattended" as the sources say. Having the flag had nothing to do with this encounter.
This boy has been detained(another word for arrested) temporarily and returned to his parents with no charges. According to the glorified terrorist organization they were protecting the boy from a "potentially dangerous protest" which I highly doubt as none has shown and signs of violence.
I do disagree with many headlines to make this event into clickbait for their propaganda whether it's for pro Israel or anti Israel or pro Palestinian and anti Palestine protests.
The kid didn't do anything but protest along side the crowd and got scared and ran when approached by the police and you know how wolves love the chase.
well.... there's got to be a limit? or not?
should we open strip bars for kids??
so where is the limit? my last response was before reading this and fits perfectly here. I don't care about sides (israel/palestine), and I don't care if it was peaceful or not. I still think it's not a place for a kid, even worse if parents were not present.
I agree with your statement 100%. Kids shouldn't be used to make a message clear. That's what the picket signs are for. But one has to ask, was freedom of expression violated that day, or did the cops really had the best interest at heart in protecting the boy?
All in all I don't think we'll be seeing the last of this kids attempts to be with this crowd. As for whoever is using him to bait in the politicians should be the one to be put into question. It's weak man energy to send children to governments to antagonize them just to leave a message. And very dangerous as we know how dangerous cops can be especially in a country where free speech is being oppressed.
Personally hell no. And they don't belong in any areas.
In similar situations, teachers have in the usa taken kids to drag shows(strip club with men) as a field trip. A "clever"(sarcasm) way to groom children into perversion.
Where do we draw the line?
In ethics. Ethics draws the line.
Did the child belong there? Probably not and especially not with people who will exploit him for propaganda. Although it is the child's right to protest, it's not morally right to leave a kid to do so unattended. But kids will have their rebellious stages and may not listen to reason. Depends who the kid is more akin to listen to. I'm glad nothing serious has happened to this child apart from a little scare but it might just wake him up to the seriousness of the matter. And I'm not condoning that police chase children.
We can't trust them either as most child trafficking is done by the government.
Cheers.
we will never know the real truth as the video doesn't show the entire context. you can see the video was cut only to show the part that interests the party that wants to send the message. every media channel, or every repost of this video will use it as their own propaganda, not spreading the truth.
Exactly. Shame.
This is one of the reasons I report on local governance. I'm not confrontational or even acerbic, people act better when their actions are observed and there is chain of accountability.
Freedom is not default, slavery is default.
Only where people tolerate it.
Bullies don't go where the crowd attacks them.
That isn't how bullies work.
That's right. !BBH
