Atlanta protesters attack federal building with fireworks, shatter windows

I hope that black leaders will eventually realize that they are being used as cannon fodder for the Antifas and BLMs.

The blacks will be the ones who die if it comes to civil war, whether that war is open warfare or guerrilla strikes at night.

And dead or alive, blacks will be blamed for the damage done to the country. This how people like Soros and swamp creatures work.

Nothing is as demeaning as being used.

Works both ways. Dems see it as justifiable outrage that energizes their base and that lives and property are collateral damage for a good cause. Republicans see it as justifiable peaceful protest but unjustifiable violence that needs to be put down to protect lives and property among the protesters and arrest of self styled revolutionaries that energizes their base.

The Atlanta PD has been completely undercut by their elected officials, Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms, Fulton County DA Paul Howard, and the City Council.

As a result of this, the Atlanta PD should probably be expected to be engaging in FIDO policing. As in F*** It, Drive Off. And I can’t say I blame them.

I am avoiding going into the City of Atlanta as much as possible. I am better prepared when I do go.

Are the American people going to vote for the leaders of these groups? The DemocRAT party?

The polls, such as what they are today, are answering that question in a resounding affirmative.

I doubt that they are growing in terms of their proportion in the population.

we pay them to breed ...

Here is a tip. Ring potential targets with claymores. I’d love to see it.

The incendiary antifah tactics over time are increasing.

The rioters now use with impunity powerful and blinding laser pointers aimed at police faces. That used to be an extremely serious crime - anybody shining one at nighttime on an aircraft cockpit would be pursued and hounded until their arrest. Lasers now are all over the scenes at each night’s riots. I can only hope that the informers and undercover guys are the ones leading to the yanking of “innocent bystanders”, where there is evidence of prior criminal use of these lasers.

Besides the lasers, these are not your father’s firecrackers being tossed at law enforcement. These are ash-cans and the like, and more powerful than that. Officers are going down from getting hit by them when they go off.

With regard to Federal troops, the Pentagon stood down during the DC riots, with the Secretary of Defense almost immediately withdrawing 1200 soldiers sent from Fort Bragg and Fort Drum. It was up to the Federal civilian forces cobbled together by Homeland Security and the Department of Justice that saved the White House and the Federal buildings from the mob. Trump only has a limited field force of loyal Federal civilian LEOs to throw against BLM and Antifa. Given the remarks of the Defense Secretary and the head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, plus the contemptuous remarks of retired flag officers, the Federal military is unreliable.

If Trump wins, he will have to go full Stalin on the Pentagon.

Hell to pay for the leftists feeding this destruction.

Relax! They’re only celebrating John Lewis’s funeral in remembrance!

Your post is by far, the most important one on this entire thread.

[Truth29]

The softly, softly approached that has been embraced by so many and has straight jacketed Trump is gradually allowing the ANTIFA/BLM/Democrat violence to turn into a full fledged insurrection. No choices are good, but the country is burning and it is getting worse.

Another Joe Biden rally

[Truthoverpower]

Bingo !

you can expect to see a shift long Hispanics to Republican this time

Nobody from Central or South America has gone to the great United States of America likes socialism

That’s all the Democrats seem to have now is socialism

One easy choice is to indict the leaders of Antifa.

Yes, they have leaders, and yes, we know who they are:

I saw something weird in my local police report the other day. Almost all of the mugshots were of Hispanics. The mugshots used to be dominated by people of another race. It was very sudden, this change.

Kemp won’t stand for it.... he will bring in the Guard and push President Trump for more Federal Agents.....

[TonyM]

Either way, come November 4 these idiots better be ready to run because President Trump will be free to open fire on these fools without sweating another election. I can’t wait to see them scurry like the rats they are when .223s start whizzing by their heads at 3100 feet per second.

[Truth29]

Yes, but ANTIFA and the rest have become much more overt and public since that article. Indictments are a good idea, but the y take time and the DOJ would have to move out quickly. We are now faced with a situation where every Federal building is a target for violent attack and arson. If we have to defend each location endlessly, with limited forces and restrictive ROEs, the country will descend into full insurrection.
