Do You Peacefully Protest dressed Like This?

Sticking with supporting your thugs?

When did tossing Molotov cocktails get entered into the Constitution or Bill Of Rights??

When did you start believing in collective punishment?
 
Just read the first page of this thread and won't do more. Why do we persist in talking past one another? We all can agree that peacefully protesting on policing issues is ok. We can all believe that violent, destructive actions are not ok. Most of us can agree that the violent ones are a small minority. Most of us can agree that it is improper to arrest and hold non-lawbreakers without charge. But some of us persist in suggesting that the guy in the picture represents all the demonstrators, or that the guy who beat a vet for asking a question, breaking some bones in the process, represents all law enforcement.

Stop it.

Cue the response that begins with the words, "we'll stop it when your side..."
 
Hey, come on now. Those are "peace bombs".

LOL talk about delusional thinking. Really, you think your Antifa, BLM, and occupy anarchists are "the patriots"????? ROTLMAO! Only reason this so called "movement" even has a little steam is due to all the moronic young white loony entitled man bun wearing "everybody deserves a trophy for losing" types filling in the space between your radical Black marxists whipping them up by using other unfortunate pre-texts like the George Floyd killing as the rallying cry. This isn't a "movement" it is a tantrum. A tantrum that it believes it is somehow a victory to tear down unprotected statues which don't fight back, paint graffiti on public and private property, or smash retail windows and go in and steal basketball sneakers. LOL --- yeah, that ain't patriotism---it is anarchy, not what stood up to the British.

If you really think your "man bun" lunatics are ready for real battle, then good luck. Not that their "supply lines" are few with a Starbucks on every corner to keep them in soy lattes and plenty of electrical outlets to keep their smart phones charged so they can post their Myface updates about their frivolities to all of their LOL---'scary radical friends'. Yeah, don't see your "soldiers" wintering at Valley Forge, or marching in on foot a for hundreds of miles to engage an actual well armed and dedicated foe that isn't a statue on a horse. Your "army" isn't even as dedicated as Ho Chi Mihn's Viet Cong---- 'willing to eat rice for a thousand years' to achieve victory. You actually amuse me.... LOL.

Go ahead, take your best shot. But be warned, won't be any trophies for losing this game.

YOUR side are NOT patriots



First off they are not peaceful protesters. As soon as any in the group, or any using the group as a cover to burn, loot, vandalize, or threaten---- then that isn't peaceful. So let's not be coy with the definitions. Even when they are only doing vandalism, they aren't peaceful. Destroying public or private property is still a crime. Maybe you should send a memo to the 'man bun army' about that.

And are you sure that America doesn't approve of the response to stop anarchists? I will tell you honestly that MORE AMERICANS are angry over a lack of response; the failure to nip it in the bud--- the anarchy, looting, and destruction to public property and private business by your buddies. MOST AMERICANS want to get America back to work. Most Americans feel for the small businesses already hurting which are now being wantonly harmed even more by your "tantrum movement".





You are lucky right now it only is the Feds. Because at the point the "roof Koreans" (Asian business owners willing to protect their investments), the "good 'ol boys" (country boy white folk who who actually do own guns and now how to shoot, camp, hike, hunt, and live off the land---and like to), and your pissed of hard working Hispanic blue collar workers who are tired of the anarchy making their lives even more miserable---- and then your average traditional God fearing African-American families who already KNOW who are the bad guys in their communities; when all of them get together and say NO ENOUGH! Well, your wimpy man bun wearing army led by professional complaining Marxist malcontents will fold up like a circus tent and leave town toot sweet.

So enjoy your "moment" because it ain't a movement. Nothing more than a childish tantrum is all you got.

No. We don't.

However, we do have a responsibility. If we say we are peaceful protesters, we need to be peaceful. If we decide to turn violent, that is our choice.

btw, here's one of those "peaceful protesters"...

A Portland rioter claimed in an interview with Blaze TV reporter Elijah Schaffer that he was shot with bean bag rounds for “peacefully protesting,” but little did he know, the sharp reporter had already caught him on camera starting a fire on federal grounds.
The man claimed that he was just banging on the fence and chanting that “Black Lives Matter” and “All Cops Are Bastards” when he was repeatedly hit. He also said that officers had zip ties and were attempting to arrest him, but he escaped.

“For just f-cking being here,” a woman named Victoria said as she helped pull up his shirt to show the marks where he was shot to the camera.

Nab the guilty. Leave the innocent alone. If the cops are too confused to sort this out, then we need better cops. No one's rights should be violated because some idiot decides to break the windows at the federal building.

You got a crowd of 300 people. One person throws a chunk of concrete. How are you going to figure out who that one person is?

Seriously...you act like it so easy. It's not.

Can you explain why that person throwing a brick justifies hitting me with a baton?

Because you...when ordered to disperse...refused.

If they are so peaceful, then why are they in protective gear and throwing fire bombs?

Then you're just arguing semantics. Even when we know that it's more than just this one "Person" committing most of the violence & crimes in these riots.
 
Michael Cole said:
My god, and you wonder why people call this mindset fascist. I don't give a damn what's in the minds of peaceful protesters. We don't arrest people for what they think.

Good for you.

Now go argue that somewhere, where such is actually the case.

Exactly. As we know the ratio of peaceful protesters to rioters is 100-1

You don't. It's very easy. The easiest thing they could possibly do. Freedom isn't free. Sometimes you just gotta let the brick thrower go rather than round up 299 innocent people.

That's a nice opinion, although a bit too naïve if you ask me.

Given the fact that these riots have continued on for so long and with the amount of violence we've seen in instances like Oregon alone. It's bound to be more than just 1%.

Neither of us is naive, so cut the crap.
