If Republicans attacked the capital then Democrats burned down the entire nation over Saint Fentanyl Floyd.. It was filmed, you know.

400 complete f’n idiots do not represent Republicans, or Trump supporters. I hope ALL of them sit in prison, and it looks like they are finding the people and busting them. Good!

Unfortunately, they are leftists, they can't help themselves. Killing innocent Americans, burning buildings, looting businesses and throwing firebombs at police are all things they support. So long as they are only terrorizing innocent American citizens, it's all fine. But when people actually protest the government-the left lose their tiny, little minds.

Jan 6 wasn't the only problem, it was Trump attempting to undermine votes in the states and many republicans still support him. No liberals I know support the riots in the cities and many have moved away from them with dumb leadership like the topic in this thread. Lumping people together is ignorant.

Apparently you hadn't paid any attention to the threads about the riots over the past year.

"Lumping people together", like you did in your post?

That is not at all what BLM is about. You are confusing mission/purpose with tactic/agitation point. BLM is a radical leftist front group that is utilizing, harnessing, exploiting and weaponizing the hurts, fears, anxieties, feelings and experiences of black people, and also white guilt, and targeting the fracture points in society, for the overthrow of capitalism and installment of a form of authoritarian socialism in the United States of America. If there are any black "conservatives" who are involved with BLM, they are likely unaware of this.

If you read the book "Rules for Radicals," you will see that Alinsky advocates "agitation: rubbing resentments, fanning hostilities, and searching out controversy." BLM is following Alinsky's Rules for Radicals.

There are two ways to go about creating a more perfect union that realizes the dreams of liberty this nation was founded on:

1. Appeal to the founding documents and principles of this country, which, if fully realized, will lead to the kind of freedoms and liberties people want, or

2. Tear it all down and replace it with a socialist dictatorship.

Guess which side BLM is on.

But the whole "fiery but mostly peaceful" crap, I literally thought it was a joke or something photoshopped.

I did not believe it at first, even for CNN. It's the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen.

For an American citizen to be against violence in politics, is the ultimate irony.

So 1/3 of the colonists were upset about taxation and representation in their govt? Do you think this relieved any of the families of the British solders that were killed? Was it acceptable then? LOL


I guess that could be considered 'irony'...an American citizen feeling violence in politics is wrong...?
The Colonials in Massachusetts were fired on first at the Lexington Green, then the British were repelled at the North Bridge in Concord after the British set fire to the town. Not a single British soldier was killed prior to that.
