    Other video show him charging someone with a sword before he gets beaten. He is alive though.

    So far it looks like LE has the upper hands there still protest but it doesn’t appear any of them have turned into a riot. No reports of building fires or looting. LE appears to be keeping protesters on the move and breaking larger groups into smaller ones

    Is it because they're doing stuff like this?

    That is not a justification for what that video shows. Even if you’re acting in self defense that only extends until the reasonable threat terminates.

    That is a terrible idea. Idiotic idea. They're going to get themselves killed.

    I am hoping that it is part of the growing pains towards progress.

    For the first time I've seen pro Trump conservatives acknowledge there was wrong done in this case.

    It is shining the spotlight on something that has been a problem for a ages. People won't take it any more

    Just shows the old saying is true, you don't bring a sword to a 1 on 50 mob fight.

    The guy from the Dallas incident is alive. He was chasing protesters with a sword
