George Floyd Murder by Cop

[archibaldcrane]

Conservatives want rules that bind minorities but do not protect them, and protect conservatives but do not bind them.

This is their primary guiding principle.

i missed the part during the "far right" protests where businesses were burned to the ground, stores looted, and people beat to a bloody pulp?

Have you seen the bank accounts of millions of Americans? Cause you just about summed it up

Ugh, the orange one is talking again

President Donald Trump told the nation's governors in a video teleconference on Monday to aggressively go after violent protesters after three nights of unrest in dozens of cities across the country.

"You have to dominate or you'll look like a bunch of jerks, you have to arrest and try people," the President told governors in a call from the basement White House Situation Room.

...

"It's a movement, if you don't put it down it will get worse and worse," Trump said. "The only time its successful is when you're weak and most of you are weak."

“You’ve got to arrest people, you have to track people, you have to put them in jail for 10 years and you’ll never see this stuff again,” said Trump. “We’re doing it in Washington, D.C. We’re going to do something that people haven’t seen before.”

Well I'm sure that will help calm both sides down before tonight surely

[Melena]

Yeah, if people think they are going to be put in jail for 10 years over protesting, if anything this is going to encourage them to get their money's worth then....

Remember being young, angry, full of emotions, full of hormones, feeling invincible, and being extra stupid? I'm sure some of you don't because you had a cookie-cutter cracker jack ass upper middle class upbringing, but for those who didn't, do you remember those feelings?

I'm sure threatening escalation and refusing to even once try to call for peace won't push some people over the edge. I'm sure it definitely won't cause any problems whatsoever. I'm sure nobody is going to think "well if I'm gonna be punished for something I didn't even do yet I may as well do it."

Right?

God man I really just hope the most machismo of us don't read this news, including the police. Every night has been worse than the last, we've started having deaths, and we're leaking deadly violence just waiting for the keg to explode and I'm just hoping to God it doesn't happen in florida first.

I'm going to a protest tomorrow in coral springs, on one of our main city intersections, but its organized by high schools so you know parkland is coming too. Supposed to be 2-4pm but well see how it goes. Honestly itll probably be totally fine, lots of privilege in these communities and honestly our cops are pretty decent folks. I'm expecting news to show up though cause those parkland shooting high schoolers are back home from college so I'm sure they'll make an appearance.

Why is the guy from Weezer carrying a gun.

Also it's just a matter of time before this militia of police roaming the streets that aren't identifying themselves fire less than lethal rounds at a house porch or window and get returned fire with real rounds by registered gun owners protecting themselves their families and their property.

We saw how well justifiably and legally returning fire worked out in KY recently.

Cleveland banned the media from reporting on-scene during curfew.

The prison industrial complex is modern slave labour. if anything, giving prisons access to mass amounts of protestors/organizers seems like the sort of thing that's going to end up backfiring when the prisons suddenly have to deal with millions of people being taught a productive outlet for their rage against the system.

Anarchy, rioting, and looting needs to end tonight.

If local law enforcement is overwhelmed and needs backup, let's see how tough these Antifa terrorists are when they're facing off with the 101st Airborne Division.

We need to have zero tolerance for this destruction.


Followed up with:

And, if necessary, the 10th Mountain, 82nd Airborne, 1st Cav, 3rd Infantry—whatever it takes to restore order. No quarter for insurrectionists, anarchists, rioters, and looters.

[TsingTao]

That's the strat, eh? Officially declare Antifa a terrorist group, call all protesters Antifa, apply military force to stop the terrorists. Seems perfectly reasonable, should help calm the country down right away.
