George Floyd Protest/Riots

[NashVol11]

Beat em, shoot em doesn’t matter to me

May I direct you to your own words:

Not shocking you are proud of this

Jesse Waters of Fox News, basically said today that because of how Understandably angry the protesters are, it was OK to riot and burn and loot for two days, but now it needs to end.

I can't wait for the National Guard to put the beatdown on those mostly paid for rioters!

May I direct you to your own words:

They are attacking the police in that video they deserve whatever they get. Why don’t you go join them

Dude you are a piece of work. Living to make these type of comments. Encase you were asleep during Barry's tenure he was the great divider. Had an opportunity to be a uniter but chose one side only. How many police were gunned down during his term. A lot of those were due to his rhetoric and always ready to take a stance against the leo before having the facts. Your savior was and is a pos

Agreed but I would take out the last sentence. I just can't bring myself to accept the last sentence because it's a little harsh if I was talking about anyone.

You won't see me commenting anymore in this dumb azz thread.

Trump tweeted "when the looting starts the shooting starts".

I guess they're all coming to talk to him about it.

I don't have a problem with shooting looters. That's not protesting. If the threat of getting shot exists, maybe they don't take **** that doesn't belong to them. It's people taking advantage of chaos to try and get free ****, and it totally undermines what the message should be.

Well they are thugs. At least to Obama the rioters are.

Using lethal force to prevent minor property crimes is so awesome!

Is anyone pointing a deadly weapon at a cop, or do you want cops shooting everyone that hurts their feelings?

You are correct and I wish I had not put that in. I'll do an edit

You care if I come willing attack you. You can't act on it now.

 

[volfanjustin]

You dems are crazy AF

I wonder if they’ll try and burn it down.

I saw things being thrown at them. You should go riot somewhere

Man, could you imagine how bad it'd be with someone divisive like Obama in office? So glad we got the great conciliator Trump in there.

We don’t have to imagine , we know how bad it got in Baltimore , Texas and other places when Obama was in office .

Looting a Target isn't a minor property crime. People should be outraged at what those cops did. People should protest. Protest does not mean steal from people who had nothing to do with the crime. Protest does not mean damage the private property of people who had nothing to do with the crime. Protest does not mean engage in threatening behavior that risks the lives of others. Apparently you've forgotten what actual protest is. I suggest you pull your head out of your ass and realize what is and what is not acceptable social behavior. Being pissed off does not justify committing crime. Don't be a dumbass.

Nothing against you in my post. I think this is a dumb azz thread. I think y'all should let the liberals have it and it will go away quickly. They want your responses.

IMO, a lot of the people (not you) who talk about “taking away from/obscuring the message” don’t want to listen to “the message” in the first place.

How “the message” is received is up to each listener...so just pay attention to it, and nothing gets taken away. People are complaining about what “the audience” will think when they ARE the audience

It’s only minor because it isn’t yours. I know you don’t own anything of any value but try to pretend how you would feel if people burned your business to the ground

Burning an Autozone to the ground isn't minor property crime either

April 26 1992, there were riots on the streets tell me where were you

 

[NashVol11]

You care if I come willing attack you. You can't act on it now.

I’m certainly not going to shoot you when I have 100 friends with guns beside me and you’re unarmed

As LG said, they have a special place in hell.

 

[NashVol11]

Again, still not worth ending someone’s life

 

[volsarelife1]

Now what if I'm beating you. You still can't act on it or it'll show it hurts your feelings

Same response as I had to EL but you can remove the dumbass comments. Those are reserved for him/her for acting as if looting is an acceptable form of protest.
