Ok, so the democrats, the media, the pentagon, the governors and the mayors are all in complete agreement that these protests are not violent and that buildings are expendable

Molotov cocktails, bricks as weapons, murdering police officers, looting, trashing, arson, burning entire city blocks is not violence?

What say you? Should we sit back with the democrat mayors of these cities and say, burn, baby, burn?

And what do we taxpayers say to them when they ask us to pay for the damages?

We really saw this early on , when the guy from MSNBC was in Minneapolis and said it was a peaceful crowd , even though he was reporting from the riot Zone where they were burning buildings.

I couldn’t believe it, but he reported that it was a mostly peaceful crowd . He said there were some burning buildings around, but except for the burning buildings, it was a peaceful crowd protesting.

In my circle of acquaintances, not just conservatives, there is a level of quiet, simmering, accelerating anger - the likes of which I haven’t seen before.
Probably because we are of an age (45-65) where we’re the ones footing the bill.

If they admit buildings are valuable, then are supporting the idea of private property. Dismissing the buildings as anything of value supports the marxist agenda.

If anyone is expecting the RINOs in Congress to have a spine when dealing with the DEMs at the state level, I think they are about to be disappointed.

It’s a diabolical plan by Trump to have BLM, and Antifa burn down the cities so he can make BILLIONS of dollars with his Trump Organization rebuilding America under budget, and ahead of schedule.

Do I have to put /S?

Riots in the streets were cited as the reason we could not uphold the Constitution and keep the son of a Kenyan/British subject, non-natural born citizen from the White House.

Since we’re having the riots anyway, now can we expose the Kenyan from Indonesia and his complete fraud on our country?

If they’ve switched to peaceful protesting instead of actual damage. Then they’re going to have to arrest and charge those who did loot, ect, over the past week.

If there is still looting, burning, violence. Then they’re lying and are further damaging the rule of law, the public good, or any real advocacy for change.

Just my opinion. How was it last night?

"And what do we taxpayers say to them when they ask us to pay for the damages?"

I'd say: "Kiss my a**".

There is no option later when they tax us.

NOW is the time to stop the damages!

NBC/WSJ poll just released indicates that 80% of those polled say that the current situation in the USA is out of control and support efforts to regain control.
This opinion is 180 degrees out of phase with the Lunatic Libs that are supportive of the riots and against the police.

I thought no they are carefully parsing their statements. The protests are non-violent and any violence occuring is not a protest. IOW, they've decoupled the two things even though we know they are interrelated. It's how they can lie through their teeth and keep the factcheckers at Bay.

Isn’t the right to enjoy and exploit your property also a “civil right”? I know the socialists don’t agree to that, but how can you expect me to have sympathy for your grievances if you don’t have respect for the property rights of individuals who had absolutely NOTHING to do with the event that sparked the wave of protests. If you are destroying property BECAUSE it is owned by a white person, then you have lost any moral high ground here. The store owners are innocent. George Floyd was committing a crime, which brought him into contact with the police.

It seems some so-called Republicans are in agreement with the turkeys on your list, GW Bush and Colin Powell to name two.

Not a penny should go to any of these cities. They want to burn down their own cities, standby and watch their businesses looted, their police attacked and murdered, citizens terrorized, the cost is on them. Looted areas do not recover, anyone with half a brain will move rather than remain in such an lawless cesspool.

You mean last night when snipers openly marched through the streets and took up strategic positions on rooftops overlooking antifa’s pre-planned battlegrounds?
