Too bad the cops couldn't be bothered to protect the guy from the mob.

They rushed right in after the mob was at risk, but he would have been ground into hamburger before they had even lifted a finger to save his life.

Fair enough. And the arrest could have been a way to get him out of there alive...

Yellow vest cop did it right, stood on the gun, checked his surroundings and when it was clear then picked up the gun. Smart cop.

Two questions,
Why did the police wait for him to pull a gun to do something, isn't attacking people in the street already a fucking crime?
Why are we defending the police at this point, fuck "blue lives" if their only purpose seems to be to arrest anyone defending themselves against these kike commies and useful idiot niggers?

Or you could look at it the other way around and know that as long as you are armed the police will actually "help" you... and quickly!

Not if we were eradicating enemies and traitors.
