Reality Check Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 1 minute ago, Margarita said: the article I posted questioned the legality of he ordering troops before invoking the Insurrection act. Maybe that article is wrong its my source. What is wrong with you? He didn't order any troops yet. Also, the people that would receive those orders will have a lot to say if those orders aren't legal. You seem to confuse media speculation with reality. Start tracking what actually happens and answer a simple question. Did he do anything illegal? If so, what damn statute did he break? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And in this case the violent thugs are DESTROYING the message that was originally supposed to be sent. I completely agree. I'm just saying it doesn't make any sense to mow down a crowd of protesters when a few people are the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orlando Buffalo Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 1 minute ago, Chef Jim said: About 20 years ago I worked with a young Bulgarian. I visited his parents and their friends who were also from Bulgaria. They were floored that we’d even consider socialism here. I had drinks with a Pole who grew up under USSR and he teaches American and world history at my school. He points out that the only reason it is popular here is that so many people are willfully ignorant of what it means. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are a small percentage, we need more of the peaceful protesters to point these people out and have them arrested. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ones causing trouble aren't from those cities. Several police departments have said the majority of people they've been arresting are from out of town or even out of state. Minneapolis said on Saturday it was like 80%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These rioters will figure it out real quick that the military can do whatever they damn well please to restore order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The protesters have a responsibility to stop protesting if every time they protest violence happens. Night after night they are putting themselves in a predictably worse situation then they did the night before. Are they going to just roam the streets protesting for months on end? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just saying, on Twitter the vast majority of the bad apples have been young white males carrying hammers and bricks trying to lights buildings and cars on fire. Who knows where they're from. Maybe those cities, maybe from outside. They provoke the cops, the cops step in to stop it, and the actual protesters wind up clashing with cops because they don't think they're doing anything wrong. These anarchists know exactly what they're doing. Just use the crowd as a shield to cause as much trouble as possible. 1 minute ago, Reality Check said: The protesters have a responsibility to stop protesting if every time they protest violence happens.

If they go home, their cause gets swept under the rug until the next time it happens. Peaceful protests are happening all over the country. A lot have turned violent, some a lot more than others, and those are the only ones the media is showing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You focus on arrests when you should focus on how many came across the border unobstructed on his watch. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
