50 straight days of rioting--over what exactly? Here they are attacking the federal courthouse in Portland.
Neither Joe Biden or a single Democrat in Congress has condemned these riots--nor will they. These maniacs represent their base.

These maniacs represent their base Of course they won’t... if they are not directly supporting those anarchists, they are at least hoping to use them to ward off votes for Trump (democrats earnestly believe civil unrest and economic malaise un-elect the incumbent). but, in all candor, I do believe they are actively supporting all this sh*t.

You would think that after 50 days or so that these people could come up with some specific demands or agenda that could at least be addressed. I imagine rioting can be a blast, but after a few months you might get a bit of vandalism fatigue and wonder "Where are we going with this?"
That's when you think it would occur to someone to say "I know! Let's present a list of, like, demands." At least we'd have some idea of what the hell they want, assuming that they know themselves. It's not likely going to be accepted by anyone but if nothing else it could be good for a laugh, a little comic interlude in the serious business of marathon rioting. ..............................Luca

Joe Biden's America. I dare him or any other elected Democrat to denounce this.

That's nothing less than child abuse, or at least child manipulation. Those parents are deplorable.

Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler is a coward and a demagogue. If these protest were "peaceful" he wouldn't need to surround himself with a phalanx of armed guards.

Show up to a riot, and cry like a little girl when pepper sprayed.
Yeah...that stuff is laughable.

As usual, the protester is an overweight, unattractive, pasty-skinned white person with no guts the second that discomfort arrives. The only difference is this time it's a guy. Is this the caliber of American we're supposed to believe is ready to fight a civil war and re-imagine a new nation?

Fortunately, it's not representative of our guys who actually are entrusted with our country's security.

I agree, but if the videos we've seen for months now are any indication, it IS representative of the opposition. They seem like a bunch of angry, ignorant kids with no futures and little idea what they're protesting about. I'd bet not one out of 20 of them could define what "racism" means, or how it is "systemic".

I just saw a video of the Bloomington, Minnesota BLM March headed to the town center to disrupt the Blue Lives Matter rally.
Easily made up of 98% white, clueless drone teens and 20-somethings. Very few people of color evident.

Very few people of color evident. Exactly! Here's a related post from another forum, that I wrote. It was actually about Black students wanting Black only spaces on campus, but I include it as a commentary on college-age whites.

I don’t think any of them actually know what the hell the word means or it’s derivation. There are damned few actual fascists in the entire world anymore...........,,,,,,,,,,,Luca

Yeah, but fighting fascism invokes memories of storming Omaha Beach, right? Aren't they doing the same thing?
