    Well they ended up walking over from the Capital. I think it's a matter of people getting riled up and wanting to take it somewhere and do more. So now they are blocking the entrance to the game. There are a few people who are in the the center and the players just came out to warm out. Usually it's pretty full in there. They had those inside go down to sit closer. Looks like they are going to still play. They were talking to someone who's inside and it sounds like they aren't letting them up on the plaza or outside. They're talking about concerns about getting people out of the arena too...but there are all sorts of underground paths out of there.

    Some of the streets have been shut down to any traffic. Protesters are telling news that This is the Time and the Place to make a stand. The perimeter has like 2 dozen police in gear.

    Final call has not been made but something was just said that Sac PD is saying they are going to "shut it down for the night". Who knows what that means.

    I'm a ways away from there and all my kids are in. I tell you though - there were tons of sirens out here going all day and I can't find any info on them at all. (we're about 6 miles away from where the shooting in the next town over) There's been a lot of calls into the schools over the past few weeks causing lock downs and such, so it's hard to say what all is going on.

    I just saw on YouTube that this brotha has a non-black significant other & has 2 kids with her...........



















    [​IMG] I wonder if that's gonna have some people feeling some type of way. I'll have to check. For anyone thinking I'm being ridiculous for suggesting this, just remember folks were shitting on the brotha who got killed out in Greece last year & calling him a coon.

    Innocent people don't do shit like that.

    I think they knew he wasn't the guy smashing windows...that's IF the so-called window smasher even existed.
    I'm skeptical of those calls they respond to.

    Props to the teams and the Kings owner for respecting the protest. He could've easily shit on the protest too.

    The 80something year old man who's sliding glass door was broken was saying that he never heard anything and came out the next morning to find it broken.

    There are reports of "looking in car windows" and then there are reports of smashing....it's not clear. Most of the reports (locally) were about looking in the car windows first.

    Helicopters and ground troops

    Hmmm

    EXACTLY - makes NOOOOO sense!! Even if what the worst of what they say is true about him....a guy running around breaking car windows and a sliding glass door. Come on now.

    I will say they like to roll the helicopter around here for almost anything, but that's just to spot light someone they are chasing usually. They do it alllllll the time and there are always a bunch of cops out. Interesting how all those times no one is shot down with 20 bullets (some in the back) though.

    Enough to make a brother wonder if it's safe to walk around the corner today (SMDH). Remember that teen in Chicago a few years ago that died in the damn daytime in nearly the same footchase cop camera scenario . . . running thru backyards and fences and all only to get shot dead in his back whilst detained facedown in someone side lawn by a driveway . . . ? Same shit, different day so what happened to his killers?

    His baby momma looks mostly black to me though and judging by his two sons she surely is black too or else the boys wouldn't look so easily afro-american. Now if he had two daughters I would agree on the momma being mixed or non-black as daughters take after their dads generally

    Tickets to the game will be refunded. No arrests made last night in the protests.

    They are protesting again now, they are saying not as many as last night....but there weren't that many at this time yesterday either. They were not allowed to block the freeway today....well so they said. I just saw a live feed that showed them blocking a bridge. The Mayor is talking now. Someone's SUV had a window smashed yesterday and a police officer was hit by something that was thrown today.

    How about the Brother in Chicago killed in his OWN GARAGE.

    The pigs snuck-up on him while he was working on his car...they were allegedly responding to a call about shots fired in the area.

    It's after 11PM here and they are protesting out in South Sac now. Some of them did kick and jump on a police car which caused more cops to move closer.
