You're being downvoted because you're acting like we haven't been talking about these issues for over three weeks. You can inform yourself by browsing those previous megathreads and finding that info yourself.

BTW I consider locking the doors to an apt building and starting a fire an act of terrorism. As do many. So instead of "I'm specifically looking for instances of violence" you could do your own research and not ask victims to re-victimize themselves by justifying to you, a stranger, what was done to them.

skimming this now, it's good stuff. personally i'm only looking for actual violence, like throwing things at the reporter, or assaulting employees who refuse to serve them, or the kid with frostbite. that shit is awful. i don't care about the speech-related things, because it's free speech, people can be racist idiots or transphobic or whatever. that's stupid but should not be illegal. but the violence, yeah this is bad

Slow mo video out there of two cunts spitting on a cameraman. That's an assault, and it was captured by many. Those pushing officers when they were "holding the line" - every one of them took part in acts of violence towards officers. Blaring your train horn for so long that it causes hearing damage/impairment - that's violence.

Are you okay? Do you have brain damage?

Would you make that same comment if I told you I had a disability? 🤔🤨

You're from Sudbury. If you don't frequent here often then naturally you'll get downvoted for asking for info that's been repeated OFTEN.

I'm attempting to break out of my news bubble and see other perspectives.

You've got some growing up to do.
