    America has a long history of putting down riots. Why should now be any different?

    No, but I think I heard that there were riots in America several decades ago, where there were snipers in the city and they sent in tanks. Snipers in the windows? Boom goes the tank and the sniper is out. Move to the next block and repeat.

    Four years? I don't know. How long have Antifa-terrorists been doing their thing?

    Calling protesters terrorists is what dictators do.

    Which flavor are you?

    Calling terrorists "protesters", is what terrorist sympathizers do.

    You've heard wrong. 40 U.S. Code 1315. Law enforcement authority of Secretary of Homeland Security for protection of public property

    To the extent provided for by transfers made pursuant to the Homeland Security Act of 2002, the Secretary of Homeland Security (in this section referred to as the “Secretary”) shall protect the buildings, grounds, and property that are owned, occupied, or secured by the Federal Government (including any agency, instrumentality, or wholly owned or mixed-ownership corporation thereof) and the persons on the property. https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/40/1315

    Sure, but you're pretending that free speech is all that they were engaged in.

    You're pretending what Trump is doing isn't designed to make it worse.

    Trump's paramilitary forces are attacking peaceful protesters to make chaos. When he loses the election, his paramilitary forces will be in place and ready.

    This is the worst case of spin the world events I have ever seen. The left has no shame. They have an agenda but no shame.

    and what I said was correct from what I had heard these actions were not legal....I heard people of authority in different places being asked - they were not Trumpsters so obviously not giving his point of view. Max Blumenthal has just been talking about this on Going Underground. He says that in Portland all the people had done was graffiti and in they come on Trump's orders and start being provocative/violent to peaceful protesters. The district attorney of Philadelphia has called them Agent Provocateurs and that was what Blumenthal described. He said after they started attacking peaceful protesters they became more violent as well - Peaceful protest is a democratic right and I think a right by International Law - it certainly is for people who are occupied. Now the District Attorney of Philadelphia while being careful not to say something which could later be held against him said that it certainly looked like some of the Fed Troops actions were illegal and if they acted illegally in Philadelphia they would be arrested just like every one else...Blumenthal on the legality suggested the Homeland Security had brought in all kinds of things after 9/11 which could just about be used if wanted to do anything. As the article said it would need a court to decide. At that time the people of the US will find out if the courts are with them because I personally cannot see it as a right to sent in Federal Troops just for people who have put graffit on Federal Buildings never mind then to start attacking people for peaceful protest....so your link saying it is legal is highly contestable and the information I have been given leads me to believe they are acting on many levels which are illegal even if by some form of words they can assert a legal right to be there. My opinion did not change on reading the link I left ....and your reply telling me I was wrong is itself highly questionable. :)

    Face It.. We have become socialist facists.. Where is my next stimulus check?

    I had symptoms of COVID but I knocked over statue and instantly felt better.


    The Blue Tsunami will crest this week if the Senate doesn't get their act together and get some benefits rolling.. McConnell wants to make sure you want to go back to your job that no longer exists.

    Lindsay and Mitch are Toast 2020.. with jelly on it..
