My sister lives on 6th Ave. cops would congregate right outside her building before the protests so she could observe the entire process.
The cops were deliberately ignoring the rioters while strong arming the largely peaceful protestors.
She has videos of 50 cops standing while someone broke into a store (by throwing a rock through the glass window), picked up a POS system, and runs, with not a single cop twitching, while just a few hours earlier you had their lieutenant or whatever come kneel with the protesters and as soon as the higher ups left, cops attack 100 lb women from behind as they were walking away.
They were deliberately attacking peaceful protestors and deliberately ignoring looters and rioters.
You could also see on the signal app which was tracking these gangs of kids who were looting major stores like Macy’s, as well as protestors, and the cops were always where the protestors were and never where the rioters, who were only a few blocks behind, were.
It was a very blatant attempt by the NYPD to make the protests appear violent by encouraging looting while discouraging peaceful protesting.
