Pretty much, if you're not a leftist rioter/terrorist or in some rare cases an authoritarian Democrat official, far right groups are no danger or threat to you. The leftist groups are a threat to the public, but the government doesn't care about that.

Post it and what percent of the 2 billion dollars in damage has been caused by these Right wingers? According to Leftist news sources all you have to do is try to protect your home or business to be considered a Right Wing extremist

Your going off a stereotype. Truth is, you show a kid something they are fascinated with and give them the idea that they can potentially do this for a living, you’ve opened a door for them.

Me, it was animation/music. Compare that to my friend who had a neglectful family and he ended up selling drugs.

I been to North Chicago high school, and even compared to L.A. schools, it was bad. It felt more like a prison, and even though I never grew up in that area, it felt like they ran it more like a prison. Metal detectors, uniforms, and no logos.

It was a shock. Ad a kid I just accepted it.

Looking back, even though I wasn’t from there, there was still a feeling that it was already in the adult’s head that I was one of the good for nothing kids because of how they spoke to you. Just another hispanic or black kid.

What Im trying to say is, don’t put kids in a box. I left the school and went to one of the other ones in the outskirts of Chicago. It was nicer and more well off kids wrnt. But I noticed the difference in how kids were treated.

Being in the other school, it felt like “this is how they see me, I guess I’ll become that”.

But I think it expands beyond the school in that area. So even not being from there, I still would have been looked at the same way as everyone else because of how I looked.

Despite me being from a military family(my dad was stationed in great lakes, and school was off base).

Okay, sure. And then a far-right extremist runs over an innocent girl and he's in prison for life.
More acts like will occur because of Trumps ridiculous rhetoric. He needs to shut up.
More Leftist Propaganda and Disinformation.
When do you guys stop lying?

They can't answer that, because then they would have to admit that they are wrong.

There are no "Right wing extremists" burning or looting.
(Not saying there haven't been false charges, but more likely they are not right wing...)

Maybe it is a necessary evil. Kinda like cutting a Leftist Cancer out of our body (Nation).

One, CSIS is a Leftist/Globalist/Elitist organization.
Two, even then, the article you linked to doesn't really support your propaganda and disinformation.

More precisely, Demoncrat and Deep State governments don't care about that. Have you noticed how these riots tend to occur in Demoncrat controlled cities, where the government allows, or even enables them?

You got that right.

The most increasing problem that we should be worried about ( IMHO ) is the fact that so many average people seem to be unable to have a decent civil discussion these days related to politics .


After all the strength of extremist groups doesn't lie in their actual numbers , but in the acquiescence/support they receive from the demographic groups they derive from , something that seems ever more frequent what with right wing Americans increasingly seeming to defend and/or down play the antics of their extremists and left wing Americans doing the same .

There are a number of other factors that come into play which I won't mention here for lack of space , but suffice to say that taking away power from the federal/state governments and handing it over to local communities would be a very worthwhile experiment since that way people could truly vote in a meaningful way , without recourse to the machinations of longstanding power brokers who very much stand to gain from their ongoing divide and conquer tactics .

Failing that the all too likely outcome will be who knows how many years of de facto political gridlock style fighting at the highest level of politics and the same as far as the lowest level of politics goes with respect to street level violence and such .

An outcome that could conceivably morph into the scenario of a civil war , which will most likely end in a Chinese and/or Russian takeover .

In short it would be wise for all of us to learn to live and let live again , because if we don't then we may very well end up living under the rule of a regime that will make our dislike towards each other very much pale in comparison .

Very intelligent analysis with some very chilling warnings.

As to the Michigan perpetrators, they will be met with Law and Order, which will prevail upon their criminal behavior and desire for lawlessness and chaos.

The narrative of their background and unsuccessful demographic features is interesting. Basically a bunch of thugs that aren't society's best and brightest, but they concocted this dirty scheme to somehow feel powerful. It's good they're off the streets, hopefully for a long, long time.

If you want people to take you seriously, you need to sound like you're in touch in reality. You can't make claims that everyone knows are false.
