But why tf does it matter where it's from? So if we don't want vigilantes? We had to condemn the looters in that specific place, not just in general? Seems arbitrary to me but keep going.I specifically mentioned looters in philly in my first post about this. That's where the baseball bat guys were from.
I didnt add philly after the fact. Talk about disingenuous.
Maybe he considers this peaceful?Please don’t post misinformation like this, the military is addressing the criminals that are breaking laws for what 7 days straight now?
Yeah if the bat wielding people would have been from anywhere else...they still would have been discussed.But why tf does it matter where it's from? So if we don't want vigilantes? We had to condemn the looters in that specific place, not just in general? Seems arbitrary to me but keep going.
Looks like hundreds? That’s awesome, finally standing up to the crime and destruction.LAPD is marching a long line of arrested folks away now.
F'ing Joe Biden... way to completely miss the whole point of this.“Police need to be trained when being charged by an unarmed man with a knife, to shoot him in the leg instead of the heart”
Joe Biden
Who are they?Does anyone think that behavior is actually a good idea?
I'll admit it's not preferable, so no. But I do sympathize with citizens/business owners in these areas. I'm more surprised we haven't seen more than this. I'd probably be spending the night inside my business with hired help to back me up if I had a business that was in a vulnerable area.Yeah if the bat wielding people would have been from anywhere else...they still would have been discussed.
Does anyone think that behavior is actually a good idea?
And very good to see. Get the word out. We`ve had enough.Looks like hundreds? That’s awesome, finally standing up to the crime and destruction.
Do you think its a good idea? I don’t believe i made a claim of who they are.Who are they?
Are they protecting their businesses?
Are they protecting their homes/neighborhoods?
Are they vigilantes?
You don’t know, neither do I
You don't have to condemn anybody. I made an observation of behavior I found odd. I stand by that. You and @whoknew basically fabricated stuff and called me dishonest. So yeah, I will "keep going."But why tf does it matter where it's from? So if we don't want vigilantes? We had to condemn the looters in that specific place, not just in general?

Fox is showing the results of damages and people being arrested in Manhattan. MSNBC is focusing on why a helicopter was flown so low in the city and blaming police.Is CNN purposely not showing the mayhem in NYC right now to protect the Cuomos?
If they were just that...sure...do you think all of them were just business owners?I'll admit it's not preferable, so no. But I do sympathize with citizens/business owners in these areas. I'm more surprised we haven't seen more than this. I'd probably be spending the night inside my business with hired help to back me up if I had a business that was in a vulnerable area.
Fox just showed a live shot of a decent sized group of people in Philly standing out in front of their homes armed with guns and baseball bats to protect their homes and familiesDo you think its a good idea? I don’t believe i made a claim of who they are.
Seems very much vigilante by definition.
Because maybe, just maybe...this is even bigger right now and more pressing to report on. And even with that they have still been discussing it.Why did the news terrorize us with social distancing, masks, not shaking hands, not hugging etc and yet now nobody seems to care?
And videos and tweets earlier showed it differently as well.Fox just showed a live shot of a decent sized group of people in Philly standing out in front of their homes armed with guns and baseball bats to protect their homes and families
Was a very quiet scene, no one was rioting or looting on that block
You mean people are living with the risk now and not concerning themselves of the very small chance they can die? Wow interestingBecause maybe, just maybe...this is even bigger right now and more pressing to report on. And even with that they have still been discussing it.
I don't know who they were. If they attacked others then they should be arrested just as anyone else. I just remember in the Rodney King riots the business owners lining up on rooftops with shotguns to try and protect their stores and shops when the police couldn't. We haven't seen very much of that this time.If they were just that...sure...do you think all of them were just business owners?
I sympathize with business owners...but IMO, that behavior is pushing for more escalation and makes it worse.
I don’t recall antifa organizing mass anarchy back then either. I don’t recall media celebrities encouraging the destruction of minority communities back then eitherI don't recall the military being set loose on peaceful protesters there, so no, I'm not forgetting them.
Peaceful protestors was fake news like 5 days ago.I don't recall the military being set loose on peaceful protesters there, so no, I'm not forgetting them.
The Koreans had AK47's and were just firing away at looters. It was so bad that the cops weren't even going into those parts of town. It wasn't them looking the other way, they just weren't there to see it.I don't know who they were. If they attacked others then they should be arrested just as anyone else. I just remember in the Rodney King riots the business owners lining up on rooftops with shotguns to try and protect their stores and shops when the police couldn't.

Do I think people arming themselves to protect their home, family , livelihood is a good idea?And videos and tweets earlier showed it differently as well.
Do you think its a good idea?
Arrested the guy responsible for that...shader said:Mayor of Nashville said that a memorial from the 1960 civil rights march in Nashville was broken, and pieces were used to break into the courthouse Saturday.

Can I go steal some stuff to protest?
There are people that think everything would be just fine with almost no police officers and just decriminalizing 95% of crime.I honestly can't imagine why anyone would want to be a cop after this.
Just standing on the street trying to keep order and crowds are running up and shoving phones in your face saying God knows what. Who the hell needs it?
Wait...you said earlier you didn't known who they all were. You know well im not asking if just defending your home is ok.Do I think people arming themselves to protect their home, family , livelihood?
Hell yes I do
People make bad choices every day.You mean people are living with the risk now and not concerning themselves of the very small chance they can die? Wow interesting
Agreed and unfortunately, the folks who are likely to still want to be a cop after this are the exact types you don't want. Will become a vicious cycle.I honestly can't imagine why anyone would want to be a cop after this.

I’m talking about the people I posted about that I saw on tvWait...you said earlier you didn't known who they all were. You know well im not asking if just defending your home is ok.
THIS is how we change...A lot of looting is happening.
A lot of this type of stuff is happening too.

I guess the only way I can look at selecting this moron to take on Trump is that we needed to make it a fair fight.F'ing Joe Biden... way to completely miss the whole point of this.“Police need to be trained when being charged by an unarmed man with a knife, to shoot him in the leg instead of the heart”

They showed a line of pastors in philly on Saturday. All shaking hands and hugging opposing cops. Not a single mask or glove seen.People make bad choices every day.
Only reason I can think of that this guy never gets suspended is he’s related to a modThat’s a really disingenuous take.
that means “pretend to be upset about something, intentionally misconstruing the words.”
let me know if you want me to define misconstrue.
Thankfully looks to have been a fake Citizen app report or something. Buddy finally got back to me after an hour with a "just took the garbage out and didn't smell anything."Unconfirmed reports of a garage fire a block from where my best bud lives in South Minneapolis. Haven't been able to get ahold of him yet
Add in no borders and that's the Antifa playbook.There are people that think everything would be just fine with almost no police officers and just decriminalizing 95% of crime.
And my question was about the overall idea and pictures and was asked before any discussion of what fox was showing.I’m talking about the people I posted about that I saw on tv
I have no idea who the people were that a picture of was posted on Twitter and won’t speculate like you are
There is an account going around from a woman saying she is a rector at the church...pretty terrible. People and medics were set up on the patio handing out waters and being ready to help anyone...then groups were showing up being tear gassed and they were removed/pushed back by police so he could take a staged photo op.Video from the peaceful protest when (30 minutes before curfew) the military police dispersed the crowd with tear gas to clear the area for Trump's photo-op.
Who thinks that?There are people that think everything would be just fine with almost no police officers and just decriminalizing 95% of crime.
. Jeep right on out of here.And my question was about the overall idea and pictures and was asked before any discussion of what fox was showing.
Anyway...have a good night...not going to jeep going back and forth on this.
