    Barr’s arrest were Federal (https://www.foxnews.com/politics/bar...ot-instigators), and even though he blamed Antifa, none of them were connected to Antifa (https://www.npr.org/2020/06/09/87327...ht-over-unrest)

    More than 40% of those facing federal charges are white. At least 1/3 are Black, and about 6% Hispanic. More than two-thirds are under the age of 30 and most are men. More than a quarter have been charged with arson, which if convicted means a five-year minimum prison sentence.

    More than a dozen are accused of civil disorder, and others are charged with burglary and failing to comply with a federal order. They were arrested in cities across the U.S., from Portland, Oregon, to Minneapolis, Boston and New York.

    I've posted this numerous times before here so it is just to illustrate how correct it is:

    The three stages of debating with a Leftist are:

    1. When they have no counter argument, they try to change the subject.
    2. When that fails they use ad hominem
    3. When that doesn't work they get mad and insult you refusing to discuss anything further.

    If it were a watch, you could set the time by it.

    How many protesters were arrested on local charges? How many total protesters were / are there? How many observed crimes went un-arrested? The so-called statistics aren't. They are meaningless to the conclusion drawn.

    Well you are incorrect there, no one changed the subject, and although some commented on the validity of your posts it came after you refused to recognized the facts presented. Your own man with the idiotic copy and pastes added the personal crapola, it’s his speciality, in fact, the only thing he ever offers

    I have no patience with people calling the Associated Press crap. They are one of the most trusted news agencies in the world.

    The "facts" presented were from an AP article that used an invalid statistical method to draw conclusions that can't be drawn from the data they used. It's that simple. Yet, those that want the "facts" to match the conclusions of the article try to defend it any way they can even as they clearly don't grasp that the statistics used are crap. Just because some liberal arts major journalist at AP writes an article doesn't make it gospel handed down from god.

    Two Missouri militia members who authorities say traveled to Kenosha, Wisconsin, to see Trump’s visit in the wake of the police shooting of Jacob Blake were arrested at a hotel in September with a cache of guns, according to court documents. An attorney for one of the men, Michael Karmo, said he is “charged criminally for conduct that many Americans would consider patriotic,” as authorities have alleged his motive was to assist overwhelmed law enforcement.
