Violent agitators over the weekend torched courthouses in California and Colorado amid Black Lives Matter protests across the country.

“We ask organizers of tonight’s protest to help maintain peace,” the Oakland Police Department wrote on Twitter Saturday. “Currently, some demonstrators in the area of 17th & Lakeside are breaking windows and chanting racial slurs at residents.”. . .

“We are calling for peace and to have safe spaces and safe places for tonight’s demonstration.”

Meanwhile, the department said that attacks were made by rioters on officers, saying that fireworks and other projectiles were launched at police.

“Fireworks and dangerous projectiles are some of the items agitators used to assault officers. We ask the organizers of tonight’s demonstration to work with us, calling for peace and help us provide safe spaces and safe places for demonstrators,” it said. The department included images of property damage and some of the items that were launched at police officers. . . .

The rioters then attempted to tear down wooden window coverings to use them as shields.

Meanwhile, some were seen “breaking windows on the courthouse and attempting to get inside of the building,” the department said.

Rioters also caused damage in Seattle on Saturday evening, including burning a youth detention center and attacking a store. At least 45 people were arrested.

And in Austin, Texas, a demonstration turned violent when a man was shot and killed during a Black Lives Matter protest downtown on Saturday.

and what is their punishment and consequences, when there are so many of them getting paid to do this even. Such corruption. Do they just get away with it. who pays for all this?

Excuse me, but are they really calling for peace, and safe spaces, safe places for tonight’s demonstration??? What are they still demonstrating about! These demonstrations night after night have caused violence, destruction, injury and murder. We know that you cannot appease the beast. Stop trying! Law enforcement needs to man up and start taking the bull by the horns. It’s obvious that these people should have lost their right to peacefully protest long ago. What’s more important? Their right to protest whatever, whenever, and wherever, or our right to live in peace and safety. This has reached a new level and law abiding citizens want to see the law upheld right now. Shut down these protests! Please take them off the streets and send them to prison just like they do to the gangs. I guess I should direct this comment to my senator or congressman.

We stand shoulder to shoulder kneeling before God and interceding for those whose minds have been blinded, whose spirits have been manipulated and indoctrinated through their youth. We declare the Victory is Ours. We declare that as we stand up and speak the truth and stop the tyranny by not reacting with emotion or unrighteous anger but by standing in the anointing and wielding the sword of truth that we will see the great harvest through these same people. Break the yoke from their necks Lord, break the scales off of their spirits and open the eyes of their understanding- so they may glorify you and walk with the whole armor of God to win others. ‘I cast down imaginations and every thought that would exalt itself above the knowledge of God. I bring my thoughts into captivity to the obedience of Christ and His Word. 2 Corinthians 2:16 “I submit myself to God, I resist the devil and he flees. I give no opportunity or place to the devil. James 4:7, Eph. 4:27 “This is the victory that causes me to overcome in this world- my faith in Jesus and His Word.” 1 John 4:4-5

We are definitely in the era where lawlessness is running high and good called evil and evil good.

Lord I pray that you will send Your angel armies to wage warfare in the heavenlies and bring righteousness to prevail. In Your name Lord Jesus.

    As intercessors, let us continue to pray for God’s intervention. I’m saying this to me first, then to others, let us not grow weary!

      Isaiah 59:19
      “So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him.”
