Support the Constitution! Show up and rally Saturday

Besides himself dodging the draft with concocted "bone spurs", Trump has mocked the military his entire life, calling those who have died in our wars, including Vietnam vets, "losers". Your faux outrage at people who would stage a protest during his multi-million$-dollar dog-and-pony show birthday party rings as hollow as the heart of the man whose reputation you are so desperate to defend.

Considering his well documented record, I find all of your knee-jerk defenses of Donald J. Trump to be, in your own words, anti-American, disgraceful, pathetic, and very much no different than spitting in veteran's faces. As someone who claims to be a veteran, I wonder why you do it.

🤷‍♂️
The notion of anyone sincerely concerned about respect for soldiers while they kneel for Donald is pathetically laughable.
 
And there is no way that President Trump is going to back down any time soon

They can't win because they're promoting murders and rapists in keep in mind that's who ice is going after right now they're not worried with the average people that are illegal aliens


Trump has halted ICE raids on agricultural businesses, restaurants and hotels.

He himself has admitted that ICE is arresting and detaining individuals that are good and necessary employees. Not murderers or rapists. Average people who are working hard and simply don’t have the right paperwork.

So 🤷‍♀️

You might want to double check where you get your information.
 
I don't understand.
I think truly peaceful protests, where peaceful protesters are physically removed from an area would have the greatest impact.

So is approaches measured
Not murderers or rapists.
Yes murderers and rapists.
Average people who are working hard and simply don’t have the right paperwork.
They should be deported too. Divide like criminals are the priority.
Illegal aliens should be deported.
You might want to double check where you get your information.
You have it shown that my information is wrong. What you have showed is that Donald Trump is prioritizing violent criminals in halting ice raids at certain edifices.
 
And whatever you do, stop scapegoating and blaming Trump and the Nazis when y'all get arrested. :LOL:

Trump is gone over the top with this. In addition, he has been inconsistent with his original stated goal. Calling Trump a NAZI is over the top but bringing lethal miltary forces on US civilans is a solid step in the direction to Mussolini style dictatorship.
 
Trump just had 60 veteran's bunged in jail for a peaceful protest.
Was it really for peaceful protest if so why.

Is it just because he's a big old meanie?
Still think we have nothing to worry about?
Yes because they weren't jailed for peaceful protest.
 
You won’t get any bites from the left here. They have a laundry list of excuses for why they can’t come out from behind their keyboards.

Providing receipts for the right wing MAGAs who engage in "Schrodinger's leftist" fallacy: simultaneously afraid to come out from behind keyboard but also somehow burning all the cities.

Then you are the exception here not the rule. Usually when I ask the advocates for the rioters why they aren’t in the streets I get a lot of weeelllll disabilities and kids and appointments and too old and stuff. Anything to excuse not having the courage of their supposed convictions.
This feels very anecdotal.

Hmm, perhaps you could link to these discussions?
 
Well, that sounds like bullshit to me. While I won't claim to speak broadly for "the left", I've already been to no less than three public demonstrations, including one in front of Fox's NewsCorp building on 6th Ave, where I was accused of being louder than the people using a bullhorn (I was!) and the one big march that started at the NYC Public Library and went up to Central Park.

We all need to get out and do more and more of this.
Much respect!

Met my wife on Sixth and 57th. waiting for the train. Great city to protest this madness in.
 
Just thinking that if anyone here supported January 6th assault on the Capitol…

You don’t get to be self righteous and denigrate the upcoming protests. That’s just so obviously hypocritical…
 
Its not the US constitution that will save us. Its everyone doing their part.

Yeah. Sadly, it turns out that the Constitution is not like the Ark of the Covenant. It does not enforce the Supreme Law of the Land itself, and a bunch of avenging angels do not erupt from it to melt the flesh off tyrannical fascists who break their oaths to faithfully uphold the Constitution. Would that it were so.
 
Suddenly, Constitutional rights and civil liberties are important to many of the people who screech "But the polls! The polls!" in the gun threads.

I'm not sympathetic.

Statists don't like the state unless it's coming down against their "enemies". Boo ****ing Hoo.
 
Keep democracy alive. Use our voices to denounce creeping authoritarianism. See you there Saturday.

You know, without the U.S. Army, there would be no democracy. We can take one day every 250 years to thank it. 🫡
