So you're fine with terrorists because they fit your political beliefs. Good to know. If you have seen my comments, I do not condone the rioters or looters. I just understand why, especially now.

Exercising your 2nd and 1st Amendment rights doesn’t make you a “terrorist”. The Rioters are terrorists.

I don't know. Were they terrorists before the cop killed Floyd?

You can thank the rioters for your having to run for your life - the cops did not do this on purpose to incite them I'm sure.
Really? GMAFB man. Those cops knew what they were doing. Any cop that uses deadly force on an unarmed black man is asking for a riot after Brown or Gray. They know it can happen. They knew what was happening when Derek Chauvin (a known racist and problem cop) used a generally accepted bad police policy of putting his knee on the back or neck of a downed person and the others didn't do Sugar Honey Iced Tea about Floyd and others saying they are killing him.

Why sugar coat it? Take away the uniform and you have a murderer.

They brought guns to a house of legislature to encourage politicians to change their vote with the threat of violence through weapons of war. That is exactly the definition of terrorism. If you don't understand that, there is nothing more to say.

I think this tonightis going to be the acid test of the protests.

Either the Nat Guard will settle things down or people are going to get killed imho.

Learn the law and get back at me. You have to do your homework if you want to discuss things with the adults.

And yet there was no violence whatsoever.... and that's what you denounce rather than violent rooting and looting that has already left people dead.

Your mask is slipping.
