Correct

Because politicians and the govt will protect their belongings by any means necessary

Now small people who have their entire life savings in their business?

Pssh, let them riot. They have insurance

Yep.

You can say what you want about the people storming the capitol, but at least they're going straight to the source of the problem and not burning down Bob's car lot and looting the Dollar General.

So one person was shot and thats that? No one coming out in cuffs no people storming out the building running for their lives? No more shots being fired back and forth?

Im only saying this because she could have been hurt another way and maybe not actually shot.

No it happens in the Middle East when dictators lose democratic elections and pretend they’re fraudulent Bc they can’t accept the loss so just claim the election is fraudulent and use force to stay in power

This is so much worse than looting a shoe store. This is sacred ground.

Lock 'em up.

Perhaps you didn't hear. The most costly riots in US history were "mostly peaceful".

If you think this is about losing a vote, you're completely misinformed.

These people are constantly told to sit down and shut the frick up, or that their opinions don't matter, or that they need to play nice, or that they're privileged therefore they shouldn't have a seat at the table, or that they shouldn't be allowed to be able to do x,y,or z because they're a shitty white male. Then, when they finally say they've had enough, people like you say that kind of shite to them and it makes it even worse.

These people have been told by their own party for the last 30 years that they have their back and they've been sold down the river every time. Someone finally tells then he has their back and actually follows through with it and their own party tries to hinder the guy every step of the way. You can kick back and have a smug attitude about these people, but I'm just trying to tell you why they're acting this way. You can ignore it and call them retards all you want, but it's just going to make things worse.


Man, do you realize how many "groups" you just described over the last 100 years? Women period for example. Get a hold of yourself. Politics as we've known it has been a scam for generations. This poor me white male shite is lame. Maybe we are marginalized but know it's just hitting home. Now you know how others feel. Sack up

This is my thinking exaclty. I know blm went to some precincts, but they tried to lock people inside of those and burn it down.

So yeah if patriots decided to lock the doors of the capitol and burn it down, then they would be worse than blm.

define action here? are we storming the capital? are we ignoring the orders?
Well thats what I am asking

Let say its September 2021, the vaccine has been available to everyone and anyone for months, and there are still restrictions, and the govt is still fining and penalizing companies that try and open up, kids still aren't allowed normal school with dances and games etc etc

What would you suggest? This is honest dialogue because at that point what should we do?
