Yeah we peacefully protested while you sprayed us and threw tear gas at us for no reason. Good job boys! And that 17 year old 100 pound girl was a real threat to society.

A conclusion on today’s meeting is chief Dugan saying that it was our fault for our brothers and sisters deaths in our streets and that the murder of George Floyd would have been avoided if black people just listened

7 protestors were just arrested at this event. So please come out at 730 to Curtis hixon to protest in solidarity. They got arrested within minutes for making a mural.
Keep in mind that the creators of the “Back the Blue” mural have not yet been arrested.
The “silent majority” is convinced that they own this city.

We won’t. Ever. For weeks the TPD and Jane castor have shown their true colors by defending white supremasists and shooting at peaceful protestors. They’ve been blatantly lying to the public and have taken absolutely no steps to correct their transgressions to our community.
@ProtestsTampa
And Dugan showed up only to be a brat and condescending for all of 2 minutes then storm off. How will we get change when these are the people in charge?

The police department has been holding our personal property as “evidence” for an unlawful assembly for the past three days.
When we call we get disrespected and lied to and we still don’t have our property back.
I need everyone to call this number and ask the lady at the front desk what’s her name and her badge number.
We’ll release the recording of how she treated us later.

Speaking of straps, there’s organizations that are giving free lessons and have donation campaigns for people to be able to obtain a permit. There’s resources available to ensure that you are prepared.
Tampa PD is letting numerous protestors get run over by ANGRY white supremacists. Yesterday a guy hit 3 protestors and drove 3 miles at 40pmh with one of the protestors still stuck on his windshield. TPD arrested the protestor on the windshield, not the driver... GET UR STRAPS

IF YOU LIVE IN OR AROUND TAMPA FL, PLEASE CALL TAMPA PD & ASK THEM TO RELEASE MARLI CHURCH.
SHE WAS ARRESTED WHILE PEACEFULLY PROTESTING & WASNT READ HER MIRANDA RIGHTS OR TOLD WHY SHE WAS BEING ARRESTED. SHES A MINOR BARELY 100LBS & MULTIPLE COPS HAD HER PINNED TO THE GROUND.

When blacks are killed on our own streets it’s no issue. No executive order was taken. You were silent.
But now when your precious monuments to the historical oppression of an entire race you decide to speak up.
Illuminating.
I have authorized the Federal Government to arrest anyone who vandalizes or destroys any monument, statue or other such Federal property in the U.S. with up to 10 years in prison, per the Veteran’s Memorial Preservation Act, or such other laws that may be pertinent.....
