How soon before this unmitigated outrage backfires on democrats?

The peaceful protesters are not the reason for the military being there. It is because of the protesters that weren't peaceful.

Oddly, leftist "protesters that weren't peaceful" (and still aren't) didn't seem to require military occupation of our capital or other cities.

LOL, Trump and the cult had a hard on for troops patrolling the streets of every single American city. It now appears the Trump viagra has worn off, and they are flaccid. Standing there with their limp dicks in hand. Whine some more, losers.

All summer, the OP called out posters on JPP for not more forcefully and clearly denouncing the riots that came about from some of the BLM protests. And yet, when a very clear riot takes place stemming from a rally held by Trump supporters - and we've got the video on that (ain't pretty) - it's all downplay, downplay, downplay. Darth - have you once even criticized what happened on 1/6?

Those who committed criminal acts at the American Bastille a couple of weeks ago have been arrested and charged. One was killed.

How many BLM "protesters" have been charged, tried, convicted and sentenced?

No, I want equal treatment under the law for everyone.

Hello Darth Omar,

I actually agree ‘the world’ thing is kind of lame though liberals are far worse about invoking it.

“The world hates Trump for yada yada”. As if ‘the world’ is some sort of monolith lol. I admit it’s pretty stupid. Typically, when lefties invoke it, the world=Western Europe and maybe Iran, depending what the outrage is.

My point is dictators typically rely on shows of military strength *against their own people* as a means of intimidation. This is not a good look for the supposed leader of the free world.

And surely, there are some people in ‘the world’ who find it to be pretty odd or even a little unsettling to see that here. Especially parts of the world that live under dictatorships.

Even more unsettling, to me anyway, is the ho-hum attitude about it.

OK, got it.

So 'the eyes of the world' was indeed your own conjecture.

Figured as much.

Never. They have achieved one party rule. Now that they've found a way to win every election, it's only going to get worse. Party members and/or sympathizers control the government, most of the courts, tech and media companies, and the public education monopsony.

No organized resistance is allowed. January 6th was the perfect (too perfect, IMO) excuse for the permanent cancellation of your rights.

Inconvenient arguments won't see the light of day unless it's to be debunked by politically-correct "experts" and "fact-checkers" who will tell the public that any source of information they disapprove of is illegitimate and untrustworthy, if they don't deplatform them or pressure businesses to cease serving them and advertisers to stop supporting them.

Donation channels to such "unapproved" organizations are shut off by payment processors and banks, and the prospective donors are subject to surveillance and IRS scrutiny.

Those who speak out are subjected to nonstop harassment and abuse or eliminated from public discourse. Elected officials are threatened with impeachment and criminal charges. Anyone aligned with political opposition is discriminated against in the labor market. They become pariahs, and are fated to suffer the fate that David Marconi warned about in 1998, except this time there's no happy ending.



Accept your lot.

If the rioters caught politicians, they would have killed them. 5 people killed at a peaceful riot? Are you rightys planning on another one and the soldiers out of the way?

IF IF IF IF IF IF IF IF

WOULD WOULD WOULD WOULD WOULD

Maybe you don't know that "potential" acts aren't crimes unless evidence of conspiracy can be proven, Nerdberg.

My first comment was that I was incensed about it *because* I was a Trump supporter. These jackasses sullied the whole movement and gave the left a veritable propaganda gift.

Yes, the OP was bitching about the rioting that was going on all summer and all I heard was ‘it’s local’ ‘it’s being overblown’ ‘Antifa is unorganized and an idea’ yada yada.

Portland is firing up again. How about we send the military occupation there next? There’s actual rioting going on. They look bored in DC.

Hello Darth,



Congress is nearly half Republican, so nearly have the blame for your misplaced complaint lies with your own party.

wait.....are you now saying you DIDN'T take control of both houses?.....

The disingenuousness of the fascist right knows no bounds. What we have here is the revelation of the First Amendment's most serious flaw.

Irony.

IF we are...assholes like you with your ass-kissing of Trump are the reason we are.

You people are traitors...a point that has become more apparent now that your Fuhrer has been kicked out of office.

They are using the 1/6 Capitol mostly peaceful protest to militarize DC as a means to prop up the propaganda that half the country are potential domestic terrorists.

The attack on the Capitol Building was not "mostly peaceful".

President @JoeBiden, have you declared martial law? Because that is what it’s starting to look and feel like.

Martial law entails suspending normal civil law. That has not happened. People are still being brought before normal courts of law.

To belittle what happened on 1/6/21 is to fool oneself.
