Could it be that the outrage has finally played itself out?

Could it be that the antifa and BLM violence has stopped being covered by the national media so they figure why bother?
Could it be that the seasons are changing and it is getting colder out so people are staying inside more and are not so keen on taking to the streets?

Could it be that there has not been a high profile Police shooting lately? (they are only high profile because the media hypes the outrage and gets the mob fired up)

Could it be that the riots that the Dems hoped to blame on Trump was indeed backfiring and most people with an ounce of common sense blamed instead the Democrats that were promoting and encouraging the unrest?



OR Could it be as others have suggested here that the people who were paying for the protests and promoting the riots have stopped sending the checks?



I think this might be the case.



We need to reelect Trump so he can get to the bottom of this paid anarchy. Is there really much difference between a terrorist that is spurred on by his leaders and a paid protester whose job it is to infiltrate a peaceful protest group and turn them into a mob that will riot and attack Police?



The people that are responsible for the anarchy need to be brought to justice. If Biden wins this will all be swept under the rug.

What do you all think ?

Must everything be a conspiracy? There haven't been any violent protests because there haven't been any new incidents of police using disproportionate deadly force against people of color. Want to eliminate all violent protests? Reform police departments and train the police to not use knees on suspect's necks nor shoot people in the back at close range, etc. Solving this is not that hard.

It was a disaster in Chicago where I live. Our once vibrant downtown had been boarded up in many parts due violent, racist BLM rioters

Where Did All the BLM and ANTIFA Violent Riots Go?
Their stimulus checks ran out, so they got jobs.

Of course the polling was showing that it was bad and was helping Trump and all of the sudden you dont hear or see much of it anymore.

What a strange coincedence.

This ain't how it works: if you are angry about an issue, you protest. Unless of course, one is paid, and I think that leads to many questions about these protestors.

In my opinion, it was all staged, they were mostly all paid, and when Biden's team discovered it was hurting them, Soros and Co. pulled the plug on the money train. Therefore rioting and protesting halted, until the election is over.

Such a well-crafted plan to create division by Democrats and the left, that backfired.

Baby it's cold outside. That's why.

Conservatives paints the current situation as if all of the US was under siege by rioters but yet, besides maybe a handful of cities across the US, it's not happening.

Is there still protesting..sure. But mass scale rioting, is something I don't see proof of.
I didn't realized the conservatives control MSM who broadcasts these violent protests.
