An offensive meme IMO. That's not an attack against you, unless you agree with the message.

Do I agree with the joke literally in every way? No. Do I agree with the general message "**** off, we don't need your approval to protest"? Yes.

Who opposes them protesting? But looting and vandalizing and acting out violently is not protesting. That's called criminal activity. Very big difference between the two. The reason people mention MLK is because he did it the right way, and wouldn't you know, he actually accomplished change.

It’s not a “bad apple” argument. There has been clear evidence over the course of several days that there are multiple groups involved. They probably do share some common members, but are not entirely homogenous. I’m not sure I’d go around advertising my inability to figure that out, if I were you.

Your ****ed up logic would justify government use of force against literally anybody because we can’t be sure that they weren’t involved in some violent protest at some point. Talk about irony, I’m pretty sure you were one of the COVId crybabies talking about freedom. Turned out you don’t care about freedom at all.

The current social unrest has got me thinking. With all of our tech advancements over the last 30 or 40 years, why hasn't there been anything developed which consistently provides non lethal threat abatement for LEOs to use? Something which could restrain suspect without requiring officers to be physical or in close proximity would be very timely invention right now.
Beyond a tazer, I can't think of any device currently in use

I'm sure there are devices out there, my guess it's a money issue as to why they aren't in the field.

Yes, left wing media. So that means it’s actually the opposite. Congrats on being uniformed as usual, then again you probably know that whole talking point is BS.


Nah, don’t need a pic of that has been. This one works just fine since she said Trump just wanted a photo op. How ironic.... Hypocritical is it to do this on the same day? Lulz @ you

Your posts are as nonsensical as trumps decision to use the bible as a symbol of moral authority after he just used his brownshirts to curb stomp a bunch people excercising their Constitutional rights.

Your whataboutisims about pelosi's photo op aren't helping you as much as you think, but congratulations on trump emulating and channeling his inner pelosi. Apparently the bar you've set is LOW.

I'm sure the Spend-o-Matic president would be happy to provide a few trillion so PD's can upgrade to safer equipment.

I'd say that even peaceful assemblies can be broken up if they are blocking public roads.

I was just telling my wife yesterday that I could not imagine what I would have done had the road been blocked whenever I was taking her to the ER on one of the several trips down there the past few years. Enough BS and foolishness happens as it is, and there's no need to import more.

The ultimate hypocrisy. "Don't touch my 2A rights, but that 1A, now that's a different story."

By the same standard you are in the remove the 2a because of some bad apples, but keep the 1a even with bad apples.

I dont think most of the left should be making this type of argument. It implies some type of consistency on your part. Which you have clearly not had.
