https://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/10/u...-protests.html

Thousands of people across the country marched, shut down highways, burned effigies and shouted angry slogans on Wednesday night to protest the election of Donald J. Trump as president.

There is just one I quickly found. And to be clear Trump did not lead a mob anywhere. I didnt see him down there - did you?

Nah but you can bet it will be a rough four years going forward - and you can thank the media mostly and democrats for the problems that are going to arise. Way to go Biden for bringing us all together !!!

So you think the media should censor stories that you find objectionable?

They certainly did, they normalized this unhinged behavior...and the extreme right followed suit, unfortunately.

I believe the news should report the facts.....not their opinions, not their speculations.

No I think the media should quit skewing every single event by Trump and his so called supporters so far out of line that it is a joke. Any normal person can see that but the dems seem to think its all great cause it always backs whatever agenda they have which is mostly to roast Trump until he is dead. We get it he is not a career politician and has no to little control over his emotional impulses but everyone gets this so why try to make a huge deal and even turn things into what they arent and to lie over and over again? It started the day he became President and has not stopped from one supposed violation of his position to the next which were proven to be false every time or very minor compared to what the media and Dems said.

MAYBE try to look at why there is so much fear around this persons ability to take office and then try to find a common ground with the American voters that you have lost so much that they voted him in. Instead they have just continued to shame, blame and belittle them. No wonder they are afraid of a lot of violence.

and now it turns out that the leaders of germany and france - hardly 'trumplettes,' 'trumpies,' or whatever dimunutive term the dims are going with this week - are far bigger fans of the first amendment than farcebook, twitter, or American leftists.

Leaders in Germany, France disagree with Twitter’s banning of Trump

And did it happen? How about the police that have been murdered in the last several months in the name of social justice?

You are absolutely correct.
Still less tin foily than denying what the president of Parler admitted as fact.

But at least we're on agreement that the average person, who does not participate in an insurrection, was not in the Capitol building. Guess who was?
