You know why pro-Trump conservatives (like me) are so angry at the Black Lives Matter movement? Not just because they are a violent, anti-American hate group. Not just because their original charter (created by lesbian Marxists) was hateful toward fathers. Not just because everywhere BLM protests, what follows is riots, looting, burning and dead cops. Not just because they scream and chant anti-American, anti-white and anti-police rhetoric. Not just because they celebrate dead police officers.
All of those are reasons enough to be angry at BLM. But worse than all that, pro-Trump conservatives are angry because of the way BLM protestors and rioters choose to react to stories they don't like. Just because you don't like a police shooting, or a court ruling, what gives you the right to riot, loot businesses, burn buildings, destroy property, attack police precincts, take over downtown business districts, or assault and murder innocent Americans? Who gave you special rights to destroy billions of dollars in property every time you hear a story that upsets you?
The truth is, we all hear and see injustice every day. But on the right, we choose to act like gentlemen and gentlewomen, in a civilized society. We don't choose to act like thugs, or 5-year-old children throwing a temper tantrum, each time we see injustice, bias or liberal hate toward the things we believe in.
Conservatives have a George Floyd, too. Except our George Floyd was a real hero, not a lifelong criminal and drug addict. Our George Floyd wasn't in and out of prison his whole adult life. Our George Floyd wasn't pumped up with a fatal dose of fentanyl. Our George Floyd didn't commit a crime, resist arrest or fight police before he died.
Jake Gardner is our George Floyd.
A former Marine and decorated Iraq War vet, Gardner owned a bar in Omaha, Nebraska. He was inside his bar when BLM thugs attacked. They broke his windows and then invaded his bar. He feared for his life. He reported feeling like he was back in Iraq, in the middle of a war zone.
Gardner pulled the fire alarm, called the police and then went outside with his father to escape the violent mob invasion of his business. His father was attacked, knocked to the ground. Gardner tried to help his father. He struggled on the ground with attackers, fired two warning shots and then fired a third, killing a violent thug. This was the clearest case of self-defense by a business owner in history.
The DA cleared Gardner and declared it a case of self-defense. The video of the incident confirmed it was self-defense.
But the BLM mob wasn't happy. After weeks of protest, a "special prosecutor" was named. Frederick Franklin, a crusading liberal prosecutor with clear bias against Trump supporters, charged Gardner with manslaughter, use of a deadly weapon to commit a felony and making terroristic threats.
Can you imagine? Liberals think defending your life and property from violent thugs makes a Marine war hero into a "terrorist." Gardner received hundreds of frightening death threats. A judge issued a warrant for his arrest.
Finally, being desperate, overwhelmed, no doubt suffering from PTSD, scared of never getting a fair trial and of being murdered in prison, this hero vet and business owner committed suicide a few days ago.
Jake Gardner is dead. But I don't call it suicide. This was murder. A Marine war hero was murdered by liberals, Black Lives Matter and the vile, vicious, prejudiced prosecutor Frederick Franklin.
This tragic and terrible story is our George Floyd on steroids. This is Exhibit A for everything wrong with America, liberalism, George Soros-funded prosecutors and judges, and the Marxist group Black Lives Matter.
This is the worst story I've ever heard. How could America treat a hero Marine and business owner like this? We should all be ashamed. Our blood should be boiling. This could have been any one of us. It could have been any of our sons. We should all be protesting, rioting, looting, burning and bringing the economy to a halt.
Except conservatives don't do that.
So, once again, we get punished for being well-behaved, for respecting the property of others, for obeying the law. This poor hero Jake Gardner dies in vain. And BLM and a demented liberal prosecutor will never be punished for ending the life of an American hero.
Are conservatives ever going to get mad? What will it take?
RIP, Jake Gardner. God bless you. I'm ashamed this could ever happen in America.
Because Americans in reality hate soldiers. And a veteran is just a soldier has hasn't died yet.

SAY THEIR NAMES
And the prosecutor’s home address is?
Often times while waiting at a traffic light I get the opportunity to learn all about the liberal Subaru driver in front of me. This is because they display their entire philosophy in bumper stickers. The woman I am thinking of was an angry lesbian. One of her angry philosophical sound bites said, “Nice women don’t make history.” It wouldn’t take long to come up with a list of names refuting her theory, though some nice women did do harsh things to save lives. Margaret Thatcher sinking the General Belgrano comes to mind. I would argue doing the right thing is not a matter of nasty or nice.
The point is the lesbian’s general hateful philosophy, which covered the back and sides of her car, was intended to force every person who read it to eschew discussion and elevate to violence. It was clear this person thought discussion and persuasion was for weak people and the only answer was to kill the opposition. This woman pretty much encapsulated what we see today in the Left. These aren’t reasonable people you can talk to. These are hardly civilized people at all. She would have been right at home if she was a part of the Mongol horde that raped their way across Europe. The irony is, as a woman, she would be both a supporter of barbarism and a victim of it, as the men of the horde would treat her like what she was…and, like what they were…barbarians.
Incidentally, she had an FSU faculty parking sticker. The irony just keeps coming.
This injustice will not stop until some of these "special prosecutors" who are brought in after the fact are "dis-incentivized" from trying to overrule the DA who has already cleared the defender.
Mr. Gardner probably would have been cleared by a jury, but the process would have been harrowing and expensive. The process would have been the punishment in this case.
Perhaps some of his military brothers with long distance 'skills' could "reach out and touch" some of these overzealous bureaucrats who unjustly persecute law abiding, self defending citizens in order to appease the blm mobs.
We do.
The LEOs who were ambushed and assassinated or executed.
The white folks who were beat to death or almost to death for the “crime” of being white in the wrong place at the wrong time.
But those, apparently, don’t count.
FReeper Travis McGee has written a couple stories using the ‘reach out and touch’ concept. “What I learned at the Coup” and another the name I cannot recall at this moment (something about urban warfare) were available at the Wordpress web site but when TM was kicked off Wordpress those works did not transfer to his new web site. If they ever become available again be sure to read them.

Conservatives don’t riot, they eventually from infantry regiments. We are not quite there yet.
Then shoot the rest of them!
form?
People, we have to endure to the end. Jesus is coming soon.
How bout you speak for yourself.
What an idiotic thing to say.
No wonder you have "trust" issues..
“SAY THEIR NAMES”
I think Daniel Shaver should be on the list.

Jake Gardner, say his name.
This is the stuff of nightmares, the fuel from which outright civil wars are sparked. Let us pray that the madness stops before it's too late.
Well, the list is so long that many, many names were left off.
No offense to Daniel or any of our other murdered brothers and sisters.

Real Americans & patriots don’t hate soldiers. They realize the sacrifices that were made on their behalf & would have no reason to hate them. They might idolize them.
