Los Angeles under military attack

They were stopping it? So the police cars on fire was acceptable? Which state right are you advocating? The fact that you thought this response was clever makes you seem even dumber.

Probably that pesky Tenth Amendment.

But do we need the Marines?  No.  Did the governor ask for the Marines or the National Guard?  No.  And if we're so eager to employ the National Guard, then why not have done so on J6?  It's a manufactured crisis.  

 

Violence is not the solution. There are rioters in addition to protesters here, and the rioters are wrong.  They should not harm or threaten to harm LEOs.  For that they should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.  Same thing goes for property damage.  Can't happen.  It is not the way.  

 

So too is the response wrong.  Putting aside the rank hypocrisy in employing the National Guard here, but not on J6, the President is supposed to be a voice of calm and reason.  There simply is no reason for the federal government to intercede in this way and at this juncture in what is principally a local matter.  

I don't know if we need the Marines, but would think probably not.  However, the attacks seems well-coordinated and violent, which implies to me a certain degree of sophistication and funding.  I couldn't say whether intelligence suggests greater violence on the horizon.   With respect to National Guard, well, it seems the LAPD was unwilling to assist, the governor and mayor has made their feelings clear on the attempt to enforce the law, so deploying the NG makes sense.  

 

The rioters are wrong, great, we agree. I would think the onus would be on the state to deal with rioters, violent extremists, and stay out of the way of federal law enforcement activities.  I don't think that's happening, so the federal government needs to provide support for federal law enforcement activities. 

 

I would also hazard a guess to say that those directly impacted by the rioters, insurrectionists and fomenters of violence would willingly accept the assistance of the federal government as the state plays politics on the sideline and not give a **** what that looked like.  All they likely see is the time, effort and money put into building their lives, homes and businesses treated as fodder for extremists and at the whim of government officials unwilling to apply the law.  

 

In that regard, btw, the locals would not be unlike the liberal politicians huddled behind walls  and people with guns and a willingness to use them on 1/6.  Given the choice to dispatch the 1/6 rioters with extreme prejudice, bring in the National Guard, the Marine Corp, the First Infantry Division and any and all in-between, they would have chosen to do so to protect themselves regardless of rules, laws and regulations.

You guys need to stop trying to be clever, the federal government has a responsibility to protect American citizens, which right is Trump taking away from the State.

How’s Trump doing on the stairs?  Maybe he can land that new Qatari jet at the same airport George Washington used in the Revolutionary War.  Just because Biden is too old

doesn’t mean that Trump can’t have scrambled eggs for brains.  Which he does.

10A.  Try reading it.  And, where is this responsibility of which you speak?  Let’s put our finger on it, shall we?  I didn’t realize you’re a tax and spend big government guy.   Because that’s what you now support.

Please.  Nobody in LA wanted the NG because it’s not an issue that demands that intervention.  And before we get to liberal pols and their behavior on J6, it’s nice that you admit that there was a reason to hide.  Which Pence Romney and plenty of “conservatives” did as well.

The 14th amendment states "No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States". California is absolutely taking away the rights of its citizens. I find it amazing  the fact that you are literally defending the rights of gang bangers to continue rapeing and murdering people due to your TDS.

Whether or not the 'issue' demands intervention typically has a lot to do with the perspective from which it is viewed.  Inside the violence, intervention of any sort probably seems like a pretty sweet deal.  From the safety of the  perch outside the zone, sure, let it all play out.  I do agree with you, however, that a strong, direct and forceful response from the local authorities is the first wave.  Again, sounds like the feds say the locals failed in that regard. 

 

As for 1/6, that's the beauty of consistency, I don't have to constantly change narratives depending on who the target is.  The liberal democrats (and all others) sequestering behind armed guards was absolutely the correct thing to do.  Asking, begging, pleading and hoping for the cavalry to arrive was the correct course of action and reflects human nature.  I'm quite certain that had some 1/6ers breached the room they were in, there would have been no calls for restraint, or inquiring as to who was armed and who was not, or ensuring only the appropriately designated individuals fires warning shots first/shots to disable second before moving onward to more lethal options. 

 

Thereafter, supporting the shooting of the unarmed Ashli Babbitt and rushing to the defense of the LEO who shot her made sense because to them, in that case, it was all very, very personal.  I wish they gave as much love, support and understanding to other members of the law enforcement community when it wasn't them directly in harm's way.

Here’s where the country is broken. Everybody claiming rightist and leftists. The lack of a true centrist or the acceptance of such from both sides is moronic. Tying yourself to one side without seeing the other as even partially correct is why both sides are wrong. Both the Dems and Reps are full of corruption. It’s the corporations versus the mega wealthy/oligarchs. The one side doesn’t want you to see what they are doing, which keeps stability because it’s all behind closed doors. Still doesn’t do the right thing. The other side doesn’t give a ***** whether you see what they are doing because they are so rich and powerful that they can’t be stopped.

That's very definitive from an important source.  But the NG is only authorized, by law, to offer support.  The definition of that is of maximum importance

TDS.  Nice.   A usual fallback when you don’t know what you’re talking about.  What law, exactly, are you talking about here?  And aren’t those challenges (14A) typical conducted as equal protection exercises in the courts?  And, on top of that, you still have this little “powers not reserved problem” to get around. 

 

Also, your spelling sucks.  It’s “raping.”  Not “rapeing.”

So you believe an image of two guys taking down an American flag is equivalent to video of groups of rioters waving Mexican and other national flags while parading around celebrating the burning American flags?
