Is this just the beginning of rioting or will it subside?

[BugI02]

I've already rejected the claim that President Trump was in any sense trapped.

I can't give a good answer to a fundamentally flawed question.

We've already rejected the claim that the 'protesters' were peaceful

I'm sorry, but given some positions you have adopted I find that a bit of a stretch. Another innocent life destroyed by Trump, I guess

Why do I picture screaming like the guy (or girl, whatever it was) at the trump inauguration?

How many ounces per batch?

Asking the real questions now

 

[printcraft]

...I can't come up with an answer confusing enough to allow wiggle room to a basic question without letting the cat out of the bag.

Agreed.

 

[CampingJosh]

Is this a joke or are you being serious?

It's hard to tell given your positions.

At the time Lafayette Square Park was cleared by police on Monday, June 1, President Trump was safely at the White House, a well-secured fortress. He had access to a helipad at the south lawn of the White House (opposite direction of the protesters), and we know that he was not in fear that it was unsafe for him to go outside at the White House because actually he did go outdoors to give a speech while police officers were clearing the protesters.

The protesters were cleared out so that President Trump could walk through the park and attend a photo op at St. John's Episcopal Church. This photo op was planned after the protesters were gathered, a constitutionally-protected right. The photo op was not presidential function (that is, it was not an action to fulfill a role or duty of the president).

If it were unsafe for President Trump to travel to where the protest was happening, then he should have just stayed home. He had absolutely no need to go there. It wasn't a confrontation until President Trump decided to make it one.

Yeah but they're stale and have raisins.

Cool.

So, the journalists on site at the time say it was still peaceful. The video recordings seem to show that it was largely peaceful. One of the Guardsmen who was on site at the time said that it was peaceful.

Instead, we're supposed to believe story as told by the government, even though the government claim of what happened has already been proven to be false.

Ya, cause “journalist” aren’t bias at all. If they said it, it must be true

 

[churchmouse]

Old and Fart do not go well together. I mean. It's not always air. Sometimes a far is really a Biden.

I don't know about you, but I would be pretty pissed off if I got teargassed for going to the bank the day after somebody else robbed it.

Since you refuse to distinguish between different crowds on different dates, I'm done pounding my head against a wall.

See you all in some other thread.

Does any level of pissed off warrant destroying your neighbor's business just days after they are finally able to open up again after devastating losses during the pandemic?

The "protesters" have a severe lack of empathy.

 

[NKBJ]

Or agenda?
I don't know. Maybe they're just as bestial as they appear.

...pounding my head against a wall.

I think I've identified the problem.
