This youtube live stream is what I first found. The stream has been switching between sources, I've seen 2 live streamers and ABC15 reporter so far. Lots of marching, police, non-violent so far. As most of you probably know, these things tend to really kick off at night, so who knows if this burns out or flares up.
I noticed something weird about the channel that posted this. Old account, only started posting 6 days ago with the same kind of live streams for the Charlotte, NC protests. Could be nothing, just thought I'd mention it.
Anyways, I figured I'd start a thread to see what you guys think. Is this Ferguson 3.0? Organic unrest? Soros?

San Diego local here, I live in Grossmont and had just finished getting a haircut, filling my bike up at the 76 across the st from los panchos when I saw a group of squadcars.
(also, this is a throwaway so I don't dox myself)
First off, the 'official' story about the victim "entering a shooting stance" is complete bullshit.
When the cops surrounded the guy, he was obviously nervous/scared but he did not have his hand in his pocket, he had one hand out to the side and the other holding his pants up (lol, stereotypes). When the officers told him to keep his hands up, he let go of his waistband to put the other hand out to his side (dunno why he was putting them to his sides, and not up in the air but whatever) one cop from the side tased him while the other started to dump his magazine.
After the shooting a couple cops were rubbing the guys chest (not even doing compressions, just rubbing on him.) and a few of the other officers started detaining bystanders and confiscating their phones (this is when I walked back to the gas station and got the fuck out of there).
As for the protesters being BLM shipped in? Highly fucking likely.
