    United States George Floyd Protests, Reactions and Riots

    I meant go for a local hero that wasn't on the losing side of one of our bloodiest wars in our nation's history. If the names are already there, I really don't care. But if you're going to be changing names, I'd choose something less controversial. I still don't even care that much even if...

    United States George Floyd Protests, Reactions and Riots

    I would have been against changing them in the first place because I don't care about confederate names that much, though I get why people don't like them. As far as changing them back? Meh. You could pick a better name. As @Zachowon suggested, go for a local hero or something like that. So...

    I don't think he was suggesting using state militia rather than police, but saying that the only things that should allow for a no knock warrant are things that are severe enough that it might be considered a military type situation. That's how I understood it at least.

    he used the phrase "all lives matter," so he's basically an uncle Tom

    Right, if they got in trouble for this, it would be for stealing and destroying property. Not because it's the US flag. The flag in question would be inconsequential.

    United States George Floyd Protests, Reactions and Riots

    June 21 1989, the SC decided that burning the US flag is protected by the 1st Amendment. Of course as mentioned, the flag we are talking about was stolen..but I doubt the antifa types would get in trouble for stealing a flag and burning it...

    Didn't the supreme court rule that the first amendment outweighs those laws? Burning a US flag is protected free speech.

    United States George Floyd Protests, Reactions and Riots

    And I think, for a good deal of us, the opinion is we should treat both equally. Either let both sides off, or go at both sides. Presently, the left gets away with shit, and the right gets arrested for the same shit. Mild complaints when one side gets away with it, and "well that's the law,"...

    5 months for stealing a flag is an outrage. That's like, worthy of a fine at worst.

    They got to keep their law license, and can still own guns, and in total paid $2750 in fines. For someone with a lot of money, that's probably the right call. Just get it over with.

    Like us lol I have to admit, while I don't agree with their policies, I will vote just about any republican over any democrat, no question. Not becauae I love the right so much, but because...fuck those shit eating democrats

    I have more to say, but if I continue I will be outright breaking the rules instead of walking the line. So, I am going to refrain from here, and probably shouldn't have done the previous post either... but what's done is done.

    I'm skirting the rules on the mod announcement so I'll be more vague here than I would like in the hopes that this doesn't cross over into baseless personal attacks. (The post I have in my head is far more rude) While certain users may often be utterly clueless on a lot of things, I don't think...

    NO ONE is claiming that. They are a group of smaller cells, with a larger over-arching goal/philosophy. And that is, among other things, to cause trouble, fuel a revolution, and dismantle the system. This doesn't mean they aren't a fucking group. This is how insurgencies work. You know this...

    I might be desensitized to violence... But I'm not even sad she died. These are the consequences of trying to stab someone. If she wasn't dead, that other girl would be. I am shedding no tears for her.

    I get your concern, but That officer took a risk in a highly volatile situation in which another girl's life was in imminent danger. His quick thinking, fast reactions and good aim saved that girl in pink's life. He's a hero

    If where you are is a deciding factor as to whether or not you can trust the police, then the safest measure you can take is to simply not trust the police. Even if some precincts may be more trustworthy, the overall nationwide result of how police act, is that the left gets free passes, and...

    Good. This is what they deserve for constantly siding with the people who shout "ACAB" and "defund the police," instead of the law abiding citizens who support them. This man just trying to get home and gets arrested. One more reason I don't support the police. Even if they have right wing...
