Step up, Mr. President

[OldLady]

I don't see any protesters

Then you are fucking blind and what you "see" is .... imaginary, isn't it?

This is where our President's thoughts are at this morning:

Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump

8:41 AM · May 30, 2020·Twitter for iPhone

Great job last night at the White House by the U.S. @SecretService. They were not only totally professional, but very cool. I was inside, watched every move, and couldn’t have felt more safe. They let the “protesters” scream & rant as much as they wanted, but whenever someone........got too frisky or out of line, they would quickly come down on them, hard - didn’t know what hit them. The front line was replaced with fresh agents, like magic. Big crowd, professionally organized, but nobody came close to breaching the fence. If they had they would.... ....have been greeted with the most vicious dogs, and most ominous weapons, I have ever seen. That’s when people would have been really badly hurt, at least. Many Secret Service agents just waiting for action. “We put the young ones on the front line, sir, they love it, and........good practice.” As you saw last night, they were very cool & very professional. Never let it get out of hand. Thank you! On the bad side, the D.C. Mayor, @MurielBowser, who is always looking for money & help, wouldn’t let the D.C. Police get involved. “Not their job.” Nice!

The President was quite excited by all the big bad guns and dogs and ominous weapons, the young agents just "waiting for action." "They love it, and good practice!" The message to the protesters? Let them "scream and rant" all they want.
View attachment 342908

What were they ranting? "No justice no peace" and "Hands up don't shoot" After leaving the WH, they marched to the Capitol and held a vigil. Not a single protester or rioter I've heard about has carried a gun or fired a single shot. Someone shot AT them in Detroit, a drive by, and killed a 19 year old.

But the President is deaf. Leaders around the nation are struggling to maintain safety and let the black community know they hear them. WHY CAN'T OUR PRESIDENT ADDRESS THESE PEOPLE DIRECTLY? It is his job. They are his people, too, and they have a grievance. The armed protesters who stormed the Michigan capitol to get their Covid restrictions lifted were "very good people"
Trump tweeted:

The Governor of Michigan should give a little, and put out the fire. These are very good people, but they are angry. They want their lives back again, safely! See them, talk to them, make a deal.

Why don't the black protesters all over the country get that same consideration?

STEP UP, TRUMP. Let's see you talk to them, make a deal.

"Why don't the black protesters all over the country get that same consideration?"

They are not protesters, they are now CRIMINALS, they are destroying buildings, burning buildings and en masse smashing store windows to do MASSIVE looting. They are CRIMINALS and their extreme feral chimpout should be met with bullets, looters should be shot on sight, those who are not taken down rounded up and put in something like Gitmo-type secure installations.

Perhaps they should all carry AR 15's like the white men do.

Black men don’t have guns? Huh democrat racism wow

did you see and of the rioters with a gun or rifle?? even the white ones didn't carry, and yes a lot of white ones wsere rioting and protesting.

If you think this was all black people, you are mistaken.

Yep....the white ones were Antifa....ISIS....Communists....whatever....organizing the riots.

Task is right that there are two groups at work here. The thousands and thousands of protesters trying to get someone to listen. Then there are the opportunists who seize any opportunity to grab a year's worth of diapers or to create chaos for their political agenda. Someone said they saw Antifa arranging to join in.

What I'm saying, what this thread is about is addressing the protesters and their grievances. LISTENING. Ridding this country of racism is a tall order and it doesn't happen overnight. It takes years and years to cha. nge people's minds. Will it stop the rioters? No. They're not in it for the protest, as you already pointed out. They're marching to a different drummer and anyone caught torching a building or breaking windows or bashing in a police vehicle should be arrested. Not shot, arrested.

The President is refusing to listen to the people's grievances. He's too busy being awestruck by his personal soldiers.

I don't think the protesters and their grievances are the problem, it's the rioters and looters that are the problem. That and the police killed somebody who was pinned on the ground by 4 cops, police brutality is a problem that I think Trump and everyone else is fully aware of. Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought he did say something about that the other day, and spoke out against what happened. I think the charge that he doesn't listen to grievances is wrong or at least unfounded, but in any case there's nothing he can say about it that will make any difference to the rioters and looters. They are the people that Trump should be focusing on.

Although I don't agree with everything you said, I do appreciate your thoughtful reply. Thank you.

You're right, he DID speak out about the brutal killing of George Floyd. He has not addressed the protesters' grievances that this is STILL a systemic problem that is not getting better. There are people all over the country saying the same thing right now. What started this was peaceful protests and then the opportunists jumped in and fogged the issue.

I'm not even sure it would get anyone's attention if there was no violence. The last time there were big peaceful protests people were just bitching about it stopping traffic on the highway. I don't even remember what those protests were about.

Surely you are not suggesting violence to force change. MLK enacted a lot of change back in the 60s through non-violet means, but of course that was then. Maybe the black and minority communities should consider switching alliances to the GOP at all levels of gov't, with the understanding that no results = no support next time. I don't know how else to light a fire under the pols at every level.

It may be a systemic problem, but it does not have a systemic solution IMHO. The federal gov't can not step in and dictate to state and local gov'ts how to run their police depts. He did send the FBI and DOJ to investigate, I dunno what more he can do. He did say this:


“I want to express our nation’s deepest condolences and most heartfelt sympathies to the family of George Floyd,” the president said.

Trump also spoke about the need for accountability in the case, saying, “We’re determined that justice be served.” He added, “I understand the hurt. I understand the pain.”

Trump Expresses Condolences to Family of George Floyd: 'I Understand the Hurt. I Understand the Pain'

Trump expresses condolences to family of George Floyd.

I just don't know, Task. I don't know the answer. But I do know it starts with listening. It's not a party thing with me.

Not a party thing with me either. But I don't know how you can say Trump isn't listening or paying attention. when he says:
“We’re determined that justice be served.” He added, “I understand the hurt. I understand the pain.”

How is that not listening? The link for that quote is above in post #88. IMHO, listening is not enough, it's a start but only a start.

And I've got to be honest here, part of the problem lies within the black community. When the cop says "do this", then shut your pie-hole and do it. In many instances where the police killed a black person it was at least partly because the individual was struggling with the cops. Don't fight 'em don't struggle, don't give them a reason to get tough and for God's sake don't give them a reason to pull their weapon and use it. There are probably hundreds of cases where a black guy gets arrested without getting assaulted or killed, most cops aren't looking for the chance to bushwhack or beat the hell out of a black person. Some are, no denying that, racism is not yet dead in this country and that includes the police depts. But IMHO part of the cause for a situation to escalate lies with the victim.

Again, the President is sending his thoughts and prayers to Floyd's family; he is focusing on that one case, and you also are focusing on specific instances where an UNARMED black man resisted arrest, and that somehow makes it okay to kill them? You put your finger on their beef: racism is not yet dead in this country and that includes the police depts.

The black people in this country know of what they speak. They live it. When that fear and pervasive attitude that black people are more suspect or more dangerous than a white guy is played out over and over again, it finally reaches the point where it explodes.

Harlem
BY LANGSTON HUGHES

What happens to a dream deferred?

Does it dry up
like a raisin in the sun?
Or fester like a sore—
And then run?
Does it stink like rotten meat?
Or crust and sugar over—
like a syrupy sweet?

Maybe it just sags
like a heavy load.

Or does it explode?

Yes they live in democrat run towns with democrat run police, democrat policies.

I don't see any protesters

Then you are fucking blind and what you "see" is .... imaginary, isn't it?

When they loot and burn the town they are not protesters......if I'd have been in charge of that city the shit would have gotten real..........tear gas........water cannons......bean bag projectiles and would have protected the town..

They aren't protesters........THEY ARE CRIMINALS......just as the policeman is a criminal now.

Now I gotta go find that video that shows water cannon bowling .......using water to blow down ROWS OF RIOTERS.......it's awesome.

Are "they" all looting and burning the town? Those that are should be arrested.
I'm not there in the midst of it. Maybe there are no protests anymore? Straight riots? But as of yesterday, ALL of the rioting and destruction of property began with hundreds or thousands of people marching peacefully to protest. Common sense says if everyone of those people started doing what you say, Minnesota would be leveled by now. And it's not.

When it started they were protesting.........when the looting started and they acted like ANIMALS........the protests WERE OVER......

They are burning the city down........the police officer is arrested and will be tried for the murder.....so WHAT THE HELL IS THE POINT..........

I'm tired of these so called protesters burning down everything and stealing during it........Last time I heard Target wasn't with the Police force.....or autozone.......that they burned to the ground.

National Guard in there and if they RIOT START BREAKING HEADS..........

Take your copy and paste spam and stick it up your ass. We have a topic here. Stick to it.

Get ahold of yourself TDS’er...practice a little self control.
Nothing has changed since January 20, 2017.
Trump promised not to govern on behalf of America’s filth after eight grueling years of the Magic Nigg rolling the red carpet out for the dregs.
The sharp change in governance pissed off wetbacks, faggots, rug munchers, chicks with dicks, feminazis, weirdos, lowlife degenerates and criminals. He won’t “step up” for you bottom feeders.
The pieces of shit among us remain pissed while ALL good real Americans continue to celebrate the Trump presidency daily.
The nutless Right finally woke up, they’re retaliatory, they want their nation back, they’re taking it back from wetbacks and weirdos and you hate it.
It might be easier on your head if you simply become a legitimate citizen...no?

Bernice King implored those defacing Atlanta to remember her father, Martin Luther King Jr., and to not use his legacy for violent purposes.

“A lot of people have been using my father’s words, sometimes I get a little upset when people do that and co-opt those words and take them out of context,” she said. “He said to us ‘Riots are the language of the unheard,’ and the part we often miss is the part about the ‘unheard.’”

King said that change never comes through violence and decried those who would try to stoke racial conflict and discord in the country.

“Let’s not go back to business as usual,” she said. “Let’s deal with these issues, that people are crying out of their soul and the spirit, the conditions that have led to this kind of action.”

There are people trying to be heard. We need to listen, not shoot, judge and continue with the same old same old which got us into this predicament to begin with.

President Trump has been challenged loud and clear. He seems incapable of anything but bringing a bigger knife to the fight. It doesn't have to be that way.

Yeah, that's convenient for you. Some people start rioting and that means ALL them damned negroes are criminals. Flush those protests down the toilet--fortunately someone in the crowd started acting bad so now you can say they're all criminals and don't deserve to be listened to.

No sense wasting my breath on you anymore, eagle. You refuse to listen, either.

This is where our President's thoughts are at this morning:

Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump

8:41 AM · May 30, 2020·Twitter for iPhone

Great job last night at the White House by the U.S. @SecretService. They were not only totally professional, but very cool. I was inside, watched every move, and couldn’t have felt more safe. They let the “protesters” scream & rant as much as they wanted, but whenever someone........got too frisky or out of line, they would quickly come down on them, hard - didn’t know what hit them. The front line was replaced with fresh agents, like magic. Big crowd, professionally organized, but nobody came close to breaching the fence. If they had they would.... ....have been greeted with the most vicious dogs, and most ominous weapons, I have ever seen. That’s when people would have been really badly hurt, at least. Many Secret Service agents just waiting for action. “We put the young ones on the front line, sir, they love it, and........good practice.” As you saw last night, they were very cool & very professional. Never let it get out of hand. Thank you! On the bad side, the D.C. Mayor, @MurielBowser, who is always looking for money & help, wouldn’t let the D.C. Police get involved. “Not their job.” Nice!

The President was quite excited by all the big bad guns and dogs and ominous weapons, the young agents just "waiting for action." "They love it, and good practice!" The message to the protesters? Let them "scream and rant" all they want.
View attachment 342908

What were they ranting? "No justice no peace" and "Hands up don't shoot" After leaving the WH, they marched to the Capitol and held a vigil. Not a single protester or rioter I've heard about has carried a gun or fired a single shot. Someone shot AT them in Detroit, a drive by, and killed a 19 year old.

But the President is deaf. Leaders around the nation are struggling to maintain safety and let the black community know they hear them. WHY CAN'T OUR PRESIDENT ADDRESS THESE PEOPLE DIRECTLY? It is his job. They are his people, too, and they have a grievance. The armed protesters who stormed the Michigan capitol to get their Covid restrictions lifted were "very good people"
Trump tweeted:

Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump
May 1

The Governor of Michigan should give a little, and put out the fire. These are very good people, but they are angry. They want their lives back again, safely! See them, talk to them, make a deal.

Why don't the black protesters all over the country get that same consideration?

STEP UP, TRUMP. Let's see you talk to them, make a deal.

"Why don't the black protesters all over the country get that same consideration?"

They are not protesters, they are now CRIMINALS, they are destroying buildings, burning buildings and en masse smashing store windows to do MASSIVE looting. They are CRIMINALS and their extreme feral chimpout should be met with bullets, looters should be shot on sight, those who are not taken down rounded up and put in something like Gitmo-type secure installations.

Perhaps they should all carry AR 15's like the white men do.

Black men don’t have guns? Huh democrat racism wow

did you see and of the rioters with a gun or rifle?? even the white ones didn't carry, and yes a lot of white ones wsere rioting and protesting.

If you think this was all black people, you are mistaken.

Yep....the white ones were Antifa....ISIS....Communists....whatever....organizing the riots.

Task is right that there are two groups at work here. The thousands and thousands of protesters trying to get someone to listen. Then there are the opportunists who seize any opportunity to grab a year's worth of diapers or to create chaos for their political agenda. Someone said they saw Antifa arranging to join in.

What I'm saying, what this thread is about is addressing the protesters and their grievances. LISTENING. Ridding this country of racism is a tall order and it doesn't happen overnight. It takes years and years to cha. nge people's minds. Will it stop the rioters? No. They're not in it for the protest, as you already pointed out. They're marching to a different drummer and anyone caught torching a building or breaking windows or bashing in a police vehicle should be arrested. Not shot, arrested.

The President is refusing to listen to the people's grievances. He's too busy being awestruck by his personal soldiers.

I don't think the protesters and their grievances are the problem, it's the rioters and looters that are the problem. That and the police killed somebody who was pinned on the ground by 4 cops, police brutality is a problem that I think Trump and everyone else is fully aware of. Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought he did say something about that the other day, and spoke out against what happened. I think the charge that he doesn't listen to grievances is wrong or at least unfounded, but in any case there's nothing he can say about it that will make any difference to the rioters and looters. They are the people that Trump should be focusing on.

Although I don't agree with everything you said, I do appreciate your thoughtful reply. Thank you.

You're right, he DID speak out about the brutal killing of George Floyd. He has not addressed the protesters' grievances that this is STILL a systemic problem that is not getting better. There are people all over the country saying the same thing right now. What started this was peaceful protests and then the opportunists jumped in and fogged the issue.

I'm not even sure it would get anyone's attention if there was no violence. The last time there were big peaceful protests people were just bitching about it stopping traffic on the highway. I don't even remember what those protests were about.

You are right, without the rioting they would not even pay attention. I don't condone the behavior but I think it is necessary to get attention for the protestors.

In the riots of '64, our city got thumped big time. 250 businesses destroyed, people died, hundreds injured. Our city was the last city in the state to have any type of decent affordable housing for low income people. The ghetto properties were abysmal, substandard, falling down shacks. I remember; to get my braces tightened, we drove through those neighborhoods. After the riots, the city bought the destroyed properties and in less than a year, housing was built. Other changes were made as well. As awful as riots are, sometimes getting officials' attention works. Remember the investigation into the Ferguson police department and the sweeping changes made? Maybe you're right, it's the only way to shake up the complacency of those in charge.

It's called Gentrification.......they burn down the ghettos and then bulldoze everything. Only the rich make out. The middle-class home owners get fucked.

Bernice King implored those defacing Atlanta to remember her father, Martin Luther King Jr., and to not use his legacy for violent purposes.

“A lot of people have been using my father’s words, sometimes I get a little upset when people do that and co-opt those words and take them out of context,” she said. “He said to us ‘Riots are the language of the unheard,’ and the part we often miss is the part about the ‘unheard.’”

King said that change never comes through violence and decried those who would try to stoke racial conflict and discord in the country.

“Let’s not go back to business as usual,” she said. “Let’s deal with these issues, that people are crying out of their soul and the spirit, the conditions that have led to this kind of action.”

There are people trying to be heard. We need to listen, not shoot, judge and continue with the same old same old which got us into this predicament to begin with.

President Trump has been challenged loud and clear. He seems incapable of anything but bringing a bigger knife to the fight. It doesn't have to be that way.

How is burning down the town doing what is posted above........it is NOT.............the RIOTERS need to be put down WITH FORCE.......

The Police man will be tried and should be..............When people start acting like animals..........they should be treated like animals.................

Put the rioters down and in jail.............they are NOT PROTESTERS..........THEY ARE CRIMINALS.

Yeah, that's convenient for you. Some people start rioting and that means ALL them damned negroes are criminals. Flush those protests down the toilet--fortunately someone in the crowd started acting bad so now you can say they're all criminals and don't deserve to be listened to.

No sense wasting my breath on you anymore, eagle. You refuse to listen, either.

They aren't all criminals....only most of them.

How you take that is your problem...........NOT MINE........has nothing to DO WITH RACISM....has to do with people burning businesses that HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE MAN WHO DIED.

This is where our President's thoughts are at this morning:

Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump

8:41 AM · May 30, 2020·Twitter for iPhone

Great job last night at the White House by the U.S. @SecretService. They were not only totally professional, but very cool. I was inside, watched every move, and couldn’t have felt more safe. They let the “protesters” scream & rant as much as they wanted, but whenever someone........got too frisky or out of line, they would quickly come down on them, hard - didn’t know what hit them. The front line was replaced with fresh agents, like magic. Big crowd, professionally organized, but nobody came close to breaching the fence. If they had they would.... ....have been greeted with the most vicious dogs, and most ominous weapons, I have ever seen. That’s when people would have been really badly hurt, at least. Many Secret Service agents just waiting for action. “We put the young ones on the front line, sir, they love it, and........good practice.” As you saw last night, they were very cool & very professional. Never let it get out of hand. Thank you! On the bad side, the D.C. Mayor, @MurielBowser, who is always looking for money & help, wouldn’t let the D.C. Police get involved. “Not their job.” Nice!

The President was quite excited by all the big bad guns and dogs and ominous weapons, the young agents just "waiting for action." "They love it, and good practice!" The message to the protesters? Let them "scream and rant" all they want.
View attachment 342908

What were they ranting? "No justice no peace" and "Hands up don't shoot" After leaving the WH, they marched to the Capitol and held a vigil. Not a single protester or rioter I've heard about has carried a gun or fired a single shot. Someone shot AT them in Detroit, a drive by, and killed a 19 year old.

But the President is deaf. Leaders around the nation are struggling to maintain safety and let the black community know they hear them. WHY CAN'T OUR PRESIDENT ADDRESS THESE PEOPLE DIRECTLY? It is his job. They are his people, too, and they have a grievance. The armed protesters who stormed the Michigan capitol to get their Covid restrictions lifted were "very good people"
Trump tweeted:

Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump
May 1

The Governor of Michigan should give a little, and put out the fire. These are very good people, but they are angry. They want their lives back again, safely! See them, talk to them, make a deal.

Why don't the black protesters all over the country get that same consideration?

STEP UP, TRUMP. Let's see you talk to them, make a deal.

"Why don't the black protesters all over the country get that same consideration?"

They are not protesters, they are now CRIMINALS, they are destroying buildings, burning buildings and en masse smashing store windows to do MASSIVE looting. They are CRIMINALS and their extreme feral chimpout should be met with bullets, looters should be shot on sight, those who are not taken down rounded up and put in something like Gitmo-type secure installations.

Perhaps they should all carry AR 15's like the white men do.

Black men don’t have guns? Huh democrat racism wow

did you see and of the rioters with a gun or rifle?? even the white ones didn't carry, and yes a lot of white ones wsere rioting and protesting.

If you think this was all black people, you are mistaken.

Yep....the white ones were Antifa....ISIS....Communists....whatever....organizing the riots.

Task is right that there are two groups at work here. The thousands and thousands of protesters trying to get someone to listen. Then there are the opportunists who seize any opportunity to grab a year's worth of diapers or to create chaos for their political agenda. Someone said they saw Antifa arranging to join in.

What I'm saying, what this thread is about is addressing the protesters and their grievances. LISTENING. Ridding this country of racism is a tall order and it doesn't happen overnight. It takes years and years to cha. nge people's minds. Will it stop the rioters? No. They're not in it for the protest, as you already pointed out. They're marching to a different drummer and anyone caught torching a building or breaking windows or bashing in a police vehicle should be arrested. Not shot, arrested.

The President is refusing to listen to the people's grievances. He's too busy being awestruck by his personal soldiers.

I don't think the protesters and their grievances are the problem, it's the rioters and looters that are the problem. That and the police killed somebody who was pinned on the ground by 4 cops, police brutality is a problem that I think Trump and everyone else is fully aware of. Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought he did say something about that the other day, and spoke out against what happened. I think the charge that he doesn't listen to grievances is wrong or at least unfounded, but in any case there's nothing he can say about it that will make any difference to the rioters and looters. They are the people that Trump should be focusing on.

Although I don't agree with everything you said, I do appreciate your thoughtful reply. Thank you.

You're right, he DID speak out about the brutal killing of George Floyd. He has not addressed the protesters' grievances that this is STILL a systemic problem that is not getting better. There are people all over the country saying the same thing right now. What started this was peaceful protests and then the opportunists jumped in and fogged the issue.

I'm not even sure it would get anyone's attention if there was no violence. The last time there were big peaceful protests people were just bitching about it stopping traffic on the highway. I don't even remember what those protests were about.

You are right, without the rioting they would not even pay attention. I don't condone the behavior but I think it is necessary to get attention for the protestors.

In the riots of '64, our city got thumped big time. 250 businesses destroyed, people died, hundreds injured. Our city was the last city in the state to have any type of decent affordable housing for low income people. The ghetto properties were abysmal, substandard, falling down shacks. I remember; to get my braces tightened, we drove through those neighborhoods. After the riots, the city bought the destroyed properties and in less than a year, housing was built. Other changes were made as well. As awful as riots are, sometimes getting officials' attention works. Remember the investigation into the Ferguson police department and the sweeping changes made? Maybe you're right, it's the only way to shake up the complacency of those in charge.

It's called Gentrification.......they burn down the ghettos and then bulldoze everything. Only the rich make out. The middle-class home owners get fucked.

How was building public housing "gentrification?" It was years before my school in the suburbs got it's first black kid. He was on my bus, poor thing. The '64 riots brought about needed change.

Since page 1, post 1, this thread has been about focusing attention on the PROTESTER's message. You (although not you alone) have turned it into a thread on what you think of the rioters and looters. We are not talking about the same thing, and I don't give a shit how many times you SAY it, it is still not the topic I came here to discuss. Take it to one of the shoot 'em up threads on this topic. There are plenty.
