2. The same cops who didn't give a fuck about a shot going off during the Charlottesville rally?

Protesters and counter-protesters beating each other up... and the cops looked the other way.

One Neo-Nazi shot his gun into the ground to scare counter-protesters... and the cops didn't even flinch.

And after the protest? The cops didn't even bother investigating who beat up whom. It took crowdsourcing to identify the perpetrators and public outcry to get the cops to do ANYTHING.
