US Law Enforcement Are Deliberately Targeting Journalists During George Floyd Protests

Bellingcat has identified and collected multiple instances of US law enforcement deliberately targeting journalists during the protests against the killing of George Floyd.

The arrest of a CNN crew in Minneapolis while broadcasting live on air on May 29th was a shocking event, especially in a country with such strong protections on freedom of speech. However as of the time of writing we have identified at least 50 separate incidents where journalists have been attacked by law enforcement.

In these examples journalists have been shot with rubber bullets, targeted with stun grenades, tear gassed, physically attacked, pepper sprayed and arrested.

Although in some incidents it is possible the journalists were hit or affected accidentally, in the majority of the cases we have recorded the journalists are clearly identifiable as press, and it is clear that they are being deliberately targeted. This pattern of violence against journalists is replicated in several cities, but appears most intense in Minneapolis.

A selection of these incidents can be found below.

Photo-journalist Linda Tirado was hit in the left eye by a less lethal round while covering events in Minneapolis. She later found out she had been permanently blinded.

Incident 11, May 30: CBS news crew targeted by rubber bullets in Minneapolis





A group of a dozen or so journalists were targeted at close range despite identifying themselves as journalists, as described in the video above. Molly Hennessy-Fiske was struck on the leg by a less lethal round.

There's been a delay in Trump coming out to make a statement.


There is no point in listening because nothing of any value will be said. In ten minutes or so he'll manage to make the situation even worse. Because that's all he does, that's all men like him ever do, make things that much worse than it was before for those they look down on. This will be just another colossal waste of time.

Anyone expecting the Gettysburg Address, "we have nothing to fear but fear itself", "ich bin ein Berliner", or "tear down this wall" will be sadly disappointed. And if they genuinely think that they've heard something similar to those words in the torrent of toxic shit about to pour out of Trump's filthy disgusting mouth? Then they're delusional. No other way to describe The Fans anymore. They're delusional, with too many of them so far gone they might as well be declared insane.

Just a couple things and I have to go.

1. Rubber bullets can be lethal.

2. I have National Guard troops on my street. They're staging for later. I'm seeing live ammo being handed out.

It looks like he's going to invoke the Insurrection Act so he can finally use the military to shoot all the Untermenschen he wants gone. Expect complete silence from the NRA and the other military fetishists when their rights evaporate before their eyes will still clutching their pearls about Hillary's emails.

I wonder if Trump is going to boast about his fiddling skills.

If it turns out anything like how his great friends in Russia, North Korea, Brazil, Hungary, and the Philippines conduct their business then Hillary stands a good chance of ending up in a hole somewhere very soon.

Amid racial unrest across the nation, U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday declared himself "the president of law and order" and threatened to deploy the United States military to American cities to quell a rise of violent protests.

As Trump spoke, an incredible TV split screen developed around the White House. While he addressed the nation in the White House's idyllic Rose Garden, a series of military vehicles rolled out front on Pennsylvania Avenue and military police and law enforcement clashed with protesters at Lafayette Park.

Those peaceful demonstrators were cleared so Trump could walk across the park to St. John's Episcopal Church, known as "The Church of the Presidents," which suffered fire damage in a protest this week. Holding a Bible, he then stood with several of his Cabinet members as the cameras clicked.

I said it before and I’ll say it again. After Trump is gone, there are going to have to be new Nurnberg Trials for the all those responsible for the crimes of this administration.

Must be a fake bible because I'm pretty sure that Trump would burst into flames if he touched a real one.
