Hegseth Orders 200 National Guard Troops to Portland—State Dems Immediately Flip Out, Take Action

[Slade3200]

I never said one crime excuses another. What I pointed out is that there hasn't been equal justice applied to similar crimes and that's been going on for some time now.
Can you imagine the howls of outrage one would hear if the KKK was assaulting a Federal facility for months at a time? The left would be calling for B2 bombers and a nuke!

The KKK is quite different than civil rights groups. A KKK protest also quite different than a civil rights protest…. Wouldnt you agree?

 

[Slade3200]

Look at it this way - there are many law abiding citizens whose lives have been destroyed because their city/state governments refuse to protect them and maintain order.

That’s why we have elections and citizens get to choose leaders and policies they want to live under. Some will accept a higher level of crime and poverty if the payoff is a more free or fair society. Others won’t. That’s the beauty of a republic

 

[Slade3200]

Your argument then is - that violent thugs have the right to terrorize the innocent, and that terror should be abetted by the city/state, because you agree with the politics of the thugs??

The rights of those who wish to live a normal, peaceful, productive life must yield to the mob??

History does repeat itself... why not just call yourselves Jacobi

That’s not even close to any of the points I’ve made. Where in the hell did you get that from?!

People who vote for that are idiots. The people who lose the most are city dwellers and those who live in the inner cities involved in recent years are suffering with stores leaving or not there anymore.

Not sure what point you’re trying to make. One could say that people who vote for Trump are idiots. Would that statement mean anything to you?

They are exercising their rights which you don’t feel they should have because you are a commie

Those 'rioters' against ICE are locally protesting against a policy. The insurgents on 6Jan21 tried to overturn a legitimate election, threatened to hang the Vice-President, and invaded our Capital building and shit all over it. Of course, MAGAts just cannot see the difference. LOL

So was it questioning an election that got them YEARS of prison time, Old Rocks? So should we be getting cells ready for Al Gore, Hillary Clinton and Stacy Abrams?

Are we putting people in prison for years for "threatening" someone but not actually doing anything? I guess that all of those Antifa protesters will be getting locked up for years for threatening to shoot ICE agents...right?

And the liberal protesters that take over buildings on college campuses? The ones that occupied the State House in Minn? Are they all going to prison for years as well, Old?

 

[Man With A Plan]

I havent seen any reports about police not being able to respond to rioting or violence. I’ve actually seen the opposite where Portland police are making arrests for any protests that get violent. Can you show an example report of what you’re talking about ?

Are you trying to be clueless? You really don't know that the Portland Police haven't been responding to the nightly riot that's been taking place outside of the Federal building for months now?

How is the KKK different from Antifa?

"Burning down the house" is not a viable or legitimate policy.

It is violence - and you are trying to mitigate that by saying it's what the majority wants.

Majority+violence = mob. It is by definition mobocracy, which is the nature of democracy.

Democracy is the antithesis of republican order.

That is what you are trying to make excuse for.

Nothing new under the sun.

Why, isn't it the State Police who protect it under the Constitution?

ask the blue state governors that are allowing ICE and federal agents and facilities to be attacked ..

 

[yidnar]

I must have missed the memo where Trump reached out for coordination and support. Can you provide details on that?

Trump has been offering help to blue states and cities for months ..

 

[popscottpopscott]

Trump authorized 200 members of the Oregon National Guard to perform federal functions for 60 days, including protecting federal property amid ongoing or potential protests. Trump is doing his duty to protect federal assets and agents

 

[Slade3200]

That's the way it's supposed to work, but we see people perfectly willing to toss that aside when it suits them, no? Why else the freakout when states were given the authority to legislate abortion access for themselves? Why else the demand that all states follow federal gun laws?

Correct there is hypocrisy on both sides

Says the guy supporting the big gov sending troops to cities… haha, get a mirror

Strike 1. I asked for you to back it up. Here comes the next pitch

KKK is anti black and ANTIFA is Anti Fascism

I haven’t advocated for violence once. Don’t put words in my mouth. Especially when they are incorrect

How many cities did the KKK burn since the Biden years until now?
