    It wouldn't be the worst thing in the world if something happened to Trump -- y'all accused Obama of destroying race relations...

    Let me phrase that in a way that wouldn't put me on a list. America is going to collapse if there is a second term.

    In the absence of any form of leadership from the current president, even bigtexx looks to past presidents to speak out and help calm America...

    It’s what happens when you state that the media is an enemy of the people. The problem is also that they have the blessing of this so called President.

    America as we’ve known it will be gone if Trump is given a 2nd term...I have no doubt

    the damage that has been done during his 1st term has set this country back so many years and will take ages to undo

    Good lord guys. At least this will make you laugh.



    If anything good comes out of this time of Covid and protest I hope it’s the death of cheesy EDM.

    Seems to be coordinated methods likely communicated through police unions. Not through governors. Mayors and Governors have lost control of their own police thats for sure.

    That’s where it would be nice to have a real president here who has the biggest influence with these unions in normal times. Or maybe he is communicating directly with the unions and this is the outcome ... which actually makes more sense.

    Man, what the ****.
    Come the **** on, I’m pretty centrist. Probably lean more conservative than most in this board. That right there is the reason people are protesting.
    Cops have a hard job, those actions and the actions that led to these protests are not going to make it any easier.

    Both Antifa and BLM should be designated terrorist organizations after last night.

    have a hard job excuse is dumb. Grand scheme of things I don’t think their job is that hard from a where’s “the line” perspective. Dangerous? Sure. But not complicated hard.

    Except you know where they're clearly identifying themselves as press but you're still shooting at them & arresting them.
    Dumbass pigs.
    **** your "apologies".

    Antifa are the scum of this earth. It’s only a matter of time before the nazis show up and this turns into a white power vs antifa type deal we saw a year or so ago in Oregon and etc. How pathetic.

    What's funny about Antifa is I've never heard of a prominent individual member of that group. They are all faceless entities. It seems like they are just provacators rather than people with politcal leanings.

    And seeing as how there have been dozens of cases of right wing groups creating fake antifa social media accounts and posts along with carrying out false flag operations masked as "antifa" I wouldn't be surprised if most of these people are just agitators with zero agenda besides chaos or right wing provacators who want to change the narrative from police brutality and the relationship with poor black communties to the riots.
