Destroying a store with a bat, taking everyone in a fastfood joint hostage, causing a senior citizen to have a heartattack, shooting a cop... I'm guessing it ain't D-FENS who's the solution to our problems.

You mean like BLM has been doing for months and months? They are the problem and radically left. They want everyone to believe they're the victims of whatever and make concessions for them- which the dems will happily do and make the working class pay for it. You'll be emptying your pockets for that lying bum in the park and asking if he needs, I mean wants anything else you have. You're not lifting people up when you do that, you're just making more like them that claim false victimhood and will beg or threaten to get even more until you're living in the park with them.

You should.  While totally insane, it is a damn good movie.

Inappropriate responses to society's problems are a non-partisan issue.

You were talking about political parties. Which neither has done a damn thing about it. Since the government is mostly Republican they better get their ass in gear. Or am I trying to move an elephant? How do we know that BLM is bad press? Why not arrest CNN or Fox News for fake news?

Inappropriate responses

Except the logical response to the violently inappropriate responses to the rules is exactly what the radical left want to get rid of. They want to destroy the very system that put them where they are in the first place- which is clearly better than many alternatives for anyone that has lived with censorship and obvious oppression. Don't shit where you eat.

 

But, look....I realize that I sound very obstinate in my opinions and what I'm really asking is why I should consider the left's position. What am I not seeing that maybe I should? How much of the blm message does the left embrace? And if it's purely for political gain or fear of being "canceled", then that is despicable for everyone involved. We need solidarity or at least much more common ground.

BLM has nothing to contribute because all of their nonsense is either straight up a lie or it is based on a lie.

 

HOWEVER, the right and left need each other.  Politics are and SHOULD BE messy.  It is that friction that brings out the best.  Jordan Peterson says it best:

What worries me- and many other's I'm guessing- is that were not debating about how to fix problems anymore. What it seems like we're debating is either preserving the flawed system we have or burning it all down like Peterson said. To think that would have little or no consequences beyond our borders is extremely naive. There are people in Hong Kong, for instance, fighting for the very freedoms we take for granted. So many other nations are depending on us whether they like to admit it or not. If we fail, then that is a huge blow to democracy and freedom everywhere. Maybe a fatal one.

 

Or maybe the world despises us so much that they'd rather we were gone. Not saying I think that's fair, but I guess I can understand it. Doesn't mean we'll comply.

It's just like police.  You've heard the term, I'm sure: "The U.S. is the world's policeman."  Well, entire countries act the same way the BLM types are acting.  They want us gone, but mark my words, when we are gone, it'll be "Where's our free help?!  We need help!!!".  Same shit, bigger scale.  Entire countries act the way that BLM is acting.  It's always someone else's fault, and when you're the high profile entity, YOU are the easiest to point fault at.

The bulk of local governments are run by Democrats and there is not much that Republicans can do about the riots unless they reach too great of a scale (as happened recently in the places where they crossed the threshold necessary to authorize the federal government to be able to deputize locals to act on their behalf or to call in the National Guard. Otherwise, if the mayors, governors and senators for those riot zone riddled areas tell the feds to stay out, they can not set a foot into their jurisdictions. 

 

Division of powers make things very complicated but one can be sure that someone somewhere is enjoying themselves trying to figure out these complex problems.

For that type, if it is not difficult, it is not worth doing. The world is their game and they seek to be the foremost professional gamers.

A google search for a list of major cities or states and the political party of the mayor or governor will pretty much show you this (which is why the media won't cover it.......it doesn't fit their narrative).

As to the rest, you'd need to read the articles of the constitution.

Hmm. The republicans have more state governors if barely. And mayors they win by a land slide. No wonder why this country is so balanced☯️

 

But this does put a smile on my face.

literally the USA has plotted and succeeded in numerous coups of democratic countries and destroyed their independence... the USA is, on the world stage, worse than the police. the USA doesn't want to make sure other countries are safe, like we're told cops are supposed to do, they destabilize and abuse other countries. this is common knowledge, particularly when you look at the CIA. that's what the government does, baby. people are mad because of that, and because people are getting shot in the street, no trial, no justice, or even shot in their own beds.

I'm all for taking several steps back from this "globalization" shit. I think the US needs to pay much more attention to what's going on inside it's own borders and stop worrying what the world is or isn't doing. That said, we can't just completely withdraw on all fronts and become quiet isolationist either since some countries still need us for various reasons- mainly as a military deterrence from very aggressive neighbors.

 

But hey, the way things are going here now, we may not be defending anything except corporate interests for much longer- which is something many argue is all we've been doing for decades anyway.

Says the person who drinks coolaid and watches fearporn on the news.  ROFL!!!!

(Should we tell him the truth.....that the whole narrative is completely false and product of pure desperation of an unhinged minority, political party and the media?  Nah.......Let them figure it out later and we can laugh together with them about it).   Oh.....and proof or it didn't happen there partner, cause I am unaware of ANYONE shot in their bed by the police.  If you spout Miss Taylor then folks are going to laugh at you.  She wasn't in her bed.  The folks that are shot in the street with no justice are from gangs and thugs, not police.  But hey, keep rocking those feel feels.  LMAO!

 

On the coups in other countries.  Sure.  Why not.  Every country does this when and if they can.  They remove folks they think are dangerous to them or their citizens.  It is far more bloodless than going to war and having innocents suffer.  I'm not saying I'm for it.  I just understand that the world is messy.  When you grow up, you'll understand that as well.  To the young, everything has a clean, bright and shiny moral solution.  Ah to be young and ignorant.

I'd have to disagree.  Both articles say "alleged" at best.  Looks HIGHLY suspect to me.  As to why no one has heard of this......yea.....doesn't fit the narrative.  "Allegedly" getting shot in your bed must be a white privilege deal.  ?
