• Detroit Sues Rioters

    From Mike Powell@1:2320/105 to ALL on Tuesday, December 29, 2020 13:43:00
    I am actually shocked that it is Detroit that is doing the suing but good
    on them!

    The city of Detroit has sued Black Lives Matter demonstrators, claiming that the protesters organized a 'civil conspiracy' and defamed law enforcement and city officials in hopes of inciting violence.

    The city's countersuit claims that DWB 'illegally, maliciously, and
    wrongfully conspired with one another with the intent to and for the illegal purpose of disturbing the peace, engaging in disorderly conduct, inciting riots, destroying public property, resisting or obstructing officers in
    charge of duty, and committing acts of violence against Counter-Plaintiffs
    and DPD officers.'

    They added: 'Counter-Defendants have been captured on video hurling dangerous projectiles at police officers, blocking busy streets and school buses, encouraging violent behavior, screaming loudly in the faces of DPD officers, refusing to follow clear and lawful DPD directives and destroying and defacing public property.'

    Because of this, the countersuit declares that the protests should not be protected under the First Amendment.

    Detroit Suing Black Lives Matter Activists for "Civil Conspiracy"

    The City of Detroit has filed a lawsuit against Black Lives Matter activists, alleging a "civil conspiracy" and claiming the protests in the city "have repeatedly turned violent, endangering the lives of police and the public."

    The city cites four protests that occurred in the city this year, and alleges that injuries to police officers included "cracked vertebrae, lacerations,
    and concussions."

    Detroit, police strike back against Black Lives Matter rioters in first-of-its-kind lawsuit

    Detroit police officers are fighting back against Black Lives Matter
    protesters in court, saying demonstrators are not being held accountable for their actions in the streets.

    In a first-of-its-kind lawsuit, the Detroit Police Department and the city itself have sued Detroit Will Breathe, an umbrella organization of racial justice groups.

    The lawsuit says Detroit Will Breathe engaged in a civil conspiracy to incite riots, destroy property and commit acts of violence against police officers during the summer protests ignited by the death of George Floyd while in Minneapolis police custody.

    If you search the internet, you can also find at least one interview with Detroit Police Chief James Craig. Chief Craig agrees with the lawsuit, and Chief Craig is non-caucasian.
