Yes, support the police.
That, however, is different than blindly supporting every police officer.
The police swear an oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States of America.
When a police officer breaches his oath, then do not support that police officer, in that regard.
Police officers are held to a higher standard, because they are the ones that We The People entrust to protect and maintain our freedom. So when a police officer dishonors his oath, and sullies our Constitution, that must not go uncontested. Their oath to our Constitution has to be enforced.
Most law officers do not know anything about our Constitution. They could not tell you what our Bill Of Rights is. They swear an oath to uphold that which they know nothing (or nearly nothing) about. They raise their hand and swear to a fart in the wind, as far as their oath has any meaning to them.
All law officers should be given a quarterly quiz, where they are asked 3 questions about our Constitution (our Bill Of Rights should be the main focus). And the questions need not get into the weeds. A passing grade would be 2 out of 3 correct answers.
If they fail the test twice in a row, they are put on suspension. If they fail 3 times in a row, they are fired.
Additionally, all law officers should be required to repeat their oath to our Constitution, each time the take the quiz. That will connect the dots, making it clear as to the importance of, and the purpose of, them taking their oath.

@JohnA-bear I went with quarterly exams, and not so strenuous as to mimic passing a bar exam.
My reason is that most law officers are well intentioned, but will fail if we make the exams too difficult. The goal should be for the law officers to be reminded, on a regular basis, to uphold their Constitutional oath, and to know more than the basics about our Constitution. They do not need to be Constitutional scholars. But they should know enough to not trample on our rights, and not abuse their authority.
There are folks that perform First Amendment audits, and too often the police care called, and the police immediately defend the people that made the call. For example, a First Amendment auditor would have a video camera recording as they walk around the lobby of a post office, or of a public library, or the public sidewalk adjacent to a financial institution, etc. And sometimes the police trespass the auditor from public property. Then the auditor sues, and gets a handsome financial settlement. And only then are those police officers given training, after the fact.
Rather than those police officers immediately telling the person that called that no crime is being committed, and anyone is allowed to record in a public lobby, the police get it wrong. So they have no understanding of basic rights. But they are trying to do the right thing. Ergo, they need a quarterly exam, just enough to keep them on their toes and understand that their oath is for a reason. But not so much to stress them out if the exams are too difficult.
When law officers have a better understanding of our Constitution, it will make their jobs easier, conflicts will be easily settled, the officers will have more confidence, innocent people will neither have their rights violated no be falsely arrested, and government attorneys will not have to deal with as many lawsuits pertaining to all of the above. It is a win for everyone.

@3:18 -- We are looking at the results of the public education system, sitting there, unable to explain anything.
Alex, you should have asked them "How many dimes are in a dollar?"
Or, "How many minutes are in a quarter of an hour?"
Or, "What state is Utah in?"
Or, "What continent are we on?"
Or, "If you were born 10 years ago, how old would you be today?"
Etc.
They would likely get all of them wrong. Either that, or they would refuse to answer, because they would get all of them wrong.

@6:15 "I'm allowed to protest here, too".
Alex, the people putting their hands on you, and blocking you, are breaking the law. Ergo, they are not protesters.
Protesting is a constitutional protected right. Assaulting people is not protesting. What's next? Bank robbery as a protest?
Those people that put their hands on you, or threw coffee on you (or your colleagues), are not protesters. They might have initially been protesters. But as soon as they commit a crime, they cease being a protester.
Never call criminal activity "protesting". Calling criminal activity "protesting" implies a right to engage in criminal activity.
Blocking public roads, or blocking any public access, or causing a disturbance, or putting their hands on you, is all illegal -- all are criminal offenses. None of those criminals (who engaged in those illegal acts) were protesters.

Folks, youtube has put a blue "Context" message, directly below this video.
The message was put there by an anonymous youtube employee, who is a tyrant. Why?
When someone puts a pinned post (not pinned by the channel's host) above all other posts, with a blue background (no other posts have colored backgrounds), does not use a username, and does not provide an option for replies (like any other comment), then that person is a tyrant.
They are at the controls, playing G-d.
youtube claims that they are not authors. Yet, they routinely author communications, not covered by Section 230 of the Communications and Decency Act. What I described above is one of countless examples.
Note that virtually without exception, the anonymous youtube tyrants put their pinned comments only in postings by conservative hosts.
I have never seen one for any leftist's channel, no matter how insane the posting, and no matter have non factual the posting, and no matter how fabricated the posting.

@Charles_Anthony "I mean, technically speaking, to deface something means to permanently alter and or damage it."
Technically, what they did is deface the sidewalk.
1) Are the police supposed to know which materials are, or are not, permanent?
2) Who decides what qualifies as temporary? Even the paint used on all of our roads is not permanent. What about paints that would come off with special cleaning fluids? Are those paints allowed, due to technically not being permanent?
3) What about folks that will chalk up the sidewalk, immediately after it is washed clean -- over, and over, and over. Each time, it is temporary. But their chalkings are there 99% of the time.
It is illegal to use any public property as your canvas.

@Charles_Anthony "Well, let's look into the cost of removing each material and if it negatively impacts the individual, business and or state."
Where in the statues does "cost" determine the legality of defacing public property?
'Chalk is basically the most "temporary" of all since even walking over it will remove it, but water us virtually free, especially if the one using it is a employee of the state.'
I will be sending you my water bill for my "virtually free" water. Offer to pay your neighbor's water bill, too. You are quick to call other people's water "virtually free". So you pay for it, since it is virtually free.
And if "a employee of the state" is using water to erase chalk, it is anything but free.
We The People's taxes are paying for that employee's time. We The People's taxes are also paying for that public facility's water costs.
If you insist that it is virtually free, then have the government send you the bill for that employee's time, and another bill for the water meter's usage for the amount used to clean off the chalk.
And if you have no problem with people chalking up the public streets, then you should have no problem with them doing the same on your car and on your home. You can wash it off, with your time, "virtually free".
"Paint needs chemicals to remove and, in most cases, the surface needs to be blocked off so it not only costs money to remove but disrupts day to day life."
So when road crews are re-painting the lane dividers, it was due to someone that used chemicals that faded the original road lane paintings? And the roads were closed down when that someone used their chemicals on the road paintings?
The paint on the roadways do not fade away? It is chemicals that are the cause?
I am done entertaining your nonsense, and your attempts at changing the subject.
The comment that I initially made was about it being illegal to deface public property. That includes chalk. That is the law.
And when someone chalks up a public sidewalk with "Blacks and Jews are all scum", or "All Muslims are terrorists", or "White Power", etc, then remember, the chalk is temporary. So you will have no problem with them writing that filth on our public sidewalks. Right? If public sidewalks are an open canvas, then you are okay with whatever people write. See how that works out.

All of their equipment (tables, flag poles, pens, cameras, chairs, eyeglass frames, soda bottles / water bottles, etc) are oil based.
They all traveled there via vehicles that require oil.
They all love oil,, while protesting oil, because they are too stupid to understand that they are protesting the very thing that they personally use every day, in significant quantities.

Please take note of the "super" pinned comment, posted directly below our host's video. It has a light blue background.
An anonymous youtube employee is using g-d mode, to post her comment above all other comments. No one can unpin it -- not even the channel's host.
No one can reply to that comment.
Some anonymous youtube employee is trying to convey that her opinion is fact.
That is a form of editing, and youtube is prohibited from being an editor, in order to retain protections under Section 230 of the Communications and Decency Act.
youtube is in violation of that Act, and should lose its Section 230 protections (which allows anyone to post comments, without youtube being sued, due to what the public posts).
If youtube posted comments, like anyone else, in the comments section, that would be fine. But when youtube chimes in, as they are doing in this video, with editor powers, they cease to be just another user, and become editors.
