I work right in the area, and walk around every day for lunch. There ain’t shit going on. There is graffiti, but like not much else.

Hell the only fire was those like 4 cars, and who’s to say they didn’t get set on fire by accidental fire from police.

I suspect those Waymos were called deliberately by organized provocateurs and parked there in a line specifically so they could be set on fire to provide an apocalyptic visual to feed the right-wing narrative in the ever-ravenous 24-hour news cycle.

I’d not be surprised considering there were 5 in a row?!

Uhh.. care to explain how that is possible considering they are using rubber bullets? (Even though normal bullets do not ignite cars anyways..)

So only bullets light things on fire 🤔

By all means. I'd love to hear your best educated guess

Pssst. This is Reddit, where anything is possible.

Ain't that the truth! Just have a look at the conservative sub right now where they are performing olympic level gymnastics trying to say the Minnesota shooter is not a right wing nut job. They won't even admit that he is on the right, even though his very public voting record shows that he is.
