From Seattle:
Seattle: Rioter lays in the street to try and stop the police from moving in on bicycles. One officer rides over him anyway. #AntifaRiots #BLM pic.twitter.com/zQHC2wXJrP

Correction: He moves the bike over the man laying on the ground, not ride it. The incident is being investigated for potential misconduct following an uproar by anti-police activists.

The police were about to storm a line of rioters. One rioter lays down in front of the police to stop them. One cop walks a bike over the rioter and knocks his hat off.
Now the officer is in a world of shit.
During the demonstration that occurred last night, the Seattle Police Department was notified of an incident where, on video, it appears an SPD officer walked the wheels of his bicycle over an individual lying in the street. Immediately after being made aware of this incident, SPD activated the Force Investigation Team (FIT) to document and investigate the use of force – as required by policy — and alerted the Office of Police Accountability (OPA), which also responded to the scene. OPA has opened an investigation into the incident. The officer has been placed on administrative leave. Following the request from the OPA, the SPD has referred the incident to the King County Sheriff’s Office for a potential criminal investigation.
It’s fair game to throw incendiary devices at police but the police can’t walk a bike over a rioter who deliberately laid down in the street to block his path.
And here I am thinking that the police should run over those fuckers with one of their surplus MRAPs.
Honestly, every single cop in Seattle should quit tonight. Every one. Take their families and just abandon the city.
It’s not worth risking everything to protect a city from rioters that cannot be touched when they lay in the streets.
