Fight appeared to start when a worker objected to a pontoon boat preventing a larger river boat from docking, and was attacked by a group of white men

      Well yeah they were winning, usually you have to arrest the people who are winning first because it would be awkward to try to arrest someone while they’re getting their ass beat.

          First I laughed at this comment. Then I cried a little on the inside. Ugh.

        Black police showing out for the white cop

        NWA addressed this already.

      In the video I watched they arrested the guy who hit people, including a woman who wasn’t in the brawl at the time, with a folding chair.

        I like how you specifically point out the one blow a black person in the fight made that was fucked up and completely ignore the fact that the white pieces of shit started the violence. Very telling.

          Dude wtf. His comment was in response to the police arresting black people and he was saying why that might make sense.

          As has been said, you control active threats first for your own safety. Calm down.

            I completely understand subduing all active threats until you figure out what happened and who is actually a threat but the comment I replied to only mentioned one person and I was pointing that out.

          The white boaters clearly started everything but the only arrest I’ve seen as well was the guy who went all WWE with a folding chair on a woman who was already on the ground, right in front of the cops

            I’ve seen an article that said the 3 dudes who started it were arrested but I haven’t found anything about chair guy. Hope you’re right that was fucked. She’d just gotten her shit kicked in properly she didn’t deserve the chair.

              I just heard on the news that not only was chair guy not arrested, they don’t know who he is and police are looking for him. I want to say it was David Muir’s World News Tonight but I’m not 100% on that as I was in another room and only sort of listening
