Washington DC, The FBI respects the rights of individuals to peacefully exercise their First Amendment rights. Our mission of protecting the American people and upholding the Constitution is dual and simultaneous, not contradictory.
Accordingly, we are committed to apprehending and charging violent instigators who are exploiting legitimate, peaceful protests and engaging in violations of federal law. The continued violence, potential threat to life, and destruction of property across the United States interferes with the rights and safety of First Amendment-protected peaceful demonstrators, as well as all other citizens.
To help us identify actors who are actively instigating violence in the wake of Mr. George Floyd’s death, the FBI is accepting tips and digital media depicting violent encounters surrounding the civil unrest that is happening throughout the country.
If you witness or have witnessed unlawful violent actions, we urge you to submit any information, photos, or videos that could be relevant to the case at fbi.gov/violence.
You may also call 1-800-CALL-FBI (800-225-5324) to verbally report tips and/or information related to this investigation.
I saw this guy doing that but he was wearing a mask so good luck distinguishing him from every other person in the country right now.
Guy with the baseball bat look pretty well fed.

Let’s see if the peaceful tonight at Village of Ridgewood.
The rally in Ridgewood – right now – is a TERRIBLE idea.
I am 100% with the sentiment. I am with holding a rally. But not right now.
Just look at what has happened to NYC – it has beceome a warzone. There are a lot of elements looking to create chaos and violence under the cover of protests. They would love nothing more than to stir some sh*t up in the suburbs.
The police and local businesses are already dealing with a lot given the pandemic. Let us not make it hard for everyone and terrible for our town.
Now is the time for cooler heads to prevail and to stand down. Just ask your friends, family and coworkers about what happened in NYC last night. It was a wild free-for-all looting spree (the one death was when one group of looters shot another after their cars going the wrong way collided).
We will march. We will protest. Let’s not do this the in the middle of such chaos. This is a sincere plea.

A rally by whom and for what purpose in Ridgewood?
By people with careers, respected by law enforcement, mothers and dads of happy families?
Protesting that someone else’s police hounds people who don’t meet these criteria? Incidentally hired by taxpayers like you to do just that.
Be real.
If you’re a virtue signaling, bend the knee type, get into your head that those other ppl don’t need your sympathy. They want what you have. They want to be in your position. Like you they want to pay goons to hound malcontents out of their hood. Because those malcontents destroy their kids prospects and their property value.
If you’re a cynical asshole who makes money selling sugar, pharmaceuticals and Chinese knockoffs to obese, mentally absent people in the projects and you wanna raise a flag in fake solidarity, a big Fuck You. You’re making dough on these ppl, contributing to keeping them where they are.
Who’s left? Just good ol ppl who wanna help? Open a business and give these ppl a job with prospects. Don’t waste time on a silly rally.
Looks like fat boy here in the photo left his mother’s basement for the day.
Dunlaps disease. His stomach done lapped over his belt.
What exactly have our police done? The essential workers are the EMS paramedics, nurses, doctors, teachers and sanitation workers. Everyone else is overpaid… and in many case (here’s looking at you Village Hall and Cottage Place), also redundant.
Agitators in front of Starbucks drive thru.
Saw close to dozen RPD cops standing in the PD parking lot at about 6pm. My guess is they were going to start a shift.
They were supposed to be a protest today in the villager Ridgewood did it happen.
Yes we really need to thank the workers that are working on the Sanitation trucks. Sanitation, yard waste recycling,
