Absolutely chilling.

Chilling? He is absolutely right. The governors are weak. They have no problem arresting Christians and Jews for peaceably worshipping together during a pandemic, but sitting back while rioters burn down city hall, murder a federal officer (who was African American, btw), and destroy the few minority owned businesses there are in this country.

These police needn't charge everyone, just the violent, and detain the rest for 24 hours until the cool down, and keep doing it.

Everyone is outraged and sickened over the murder of Floyd, not just African Americans, not just Liberals. Everyone wants a police force they can trust. No one wants murderers patrolling the streets.

Conservative websites that support law enforcement 99% of the time, like PJ Media and Brietbart were outraged that it took 3 days to arrest Chauvin.

He's says "you've got to dominate them" like 5 times in the first 10 minutes of the call and he's not distinguishing or nuancing between the different types of protesters or allowing for a range of response. It's all "radical left" and "ANTIFA" to hear him tell it. He doesn't given a single acknowledgment in the whole call that these protests are happening directly because of systemic, pervasive police brutality and therefore some sensitivity and humbleness might also be in order here in responding to the situation. So yeah, chilling.
