Protests, Don't talk about...

Kenosha, Wisconsin might be seeing the very worst of this Summer’s riots next to Minneapolis. After a man was shot by police, widespread fires, looting, and destruction have crippled the city. Each night it appears to be getting worse, with some rioters shot dead. The local Democrats have refused to intervene. Now, Trump is getting serious.
From the very start of the BLM/Antifa-incited riots this Summer, Trump has condemned them. No Republican ignored real acts of injustice, such as the treatment of George Floyd. But the president refused to let protests over Floyd and others devolve into violence and chaos.
But, as if on cue, Democrats rejected his concerns. From CNN to local leaders, Democrats have ignored the threat these large-scale protests posed, both from COVID spread to acts of violence. They even called riots and looting “mostly peaceful” demonstrations.
Worried about covid spread? WTF?
...Each night it appears to be getting worse, with some rioters shot dead...”.
That seems to be the case of two contradictory statements in one sentence...
If you read the entire article, you’ll find that a governor has finally asked for help. That’s why Trump is going in with troops. He has been cleared to by someone....finally. And I can’t believe the stupidity on the part of the libs as they are allowing a democrat governor, Tony Evers, to ask for help and when Trump sends in people determined to stop the lunacy, he will get it done....right before election. And the libs are going to be proven stupid as they have done nothing to protect the citizens. They should have done it months ago or waited until after the election. I can’t believe the stupidity if this, timing wise or action wise. I believe this is called win/win.

Is Trump sending NG or Federal LEOs (USMS/ICE/CBP/FBI)?
LEOs would be better IMHO.
Shhh!
Don't let them know.
Please Mr.President
Let the N.G. bring their helmets and ammo
Don’t let them become speed bumps for another SUV ,
like that poor trooper in Minneapolis.
Anybody who throws a firebomb into a building or a car needs to be mowed down, without delay. Same for the ones who throw a brick at normal humans. Or beat someone to a pulp. Once a dozen or so anarchists are made inert, the violence will stop.
I was kind of hoping he’d let it all go until after the election. I was kind of hoping he’d let the liberal pukes in the affected cities realize liberal puke politicians were the true guilty parties.
Protests, Don't talk about...
The democrats are finally seeing the results in their secret polls and they are not happy with them. And now the citizens are shooting back, we cannot have that , can we? When the “protesters” start getting shot the little kiddies will get scared and the numbers of willing “protesters” will go down sharply.
A 71 year old man in Kenosha was protecting a friends car business with a fire extinguisher. He was hit in the face with a bottle of hardened cement. He dropped to the ground and his jaw was broken —blood all over his face.
When you see the BLM/Antifa bums walking around with skateboards and back packs carrying who knows what, why don’t the police check all of their back packs and take away any possible weapons. This could have been done right from the begining but the democrat mayors would not allow it. The police are being hamstrung so that the “revolutiion” can go on.
“...the numbers of willing “protesters” will go down sharply.”
Not until someone stands up to them and seriously shoots back. The libs won’t.
“When the “protesters” start getting shot the little kiddies will get scared and the numbers of willing “protesters” will go down sharply.’
I have been involved with crowd control with the military and working with the civilian police force in Florida in 1975/6. The majority of them are not in it for the reason the protest is being conducted. They are in it for their 15 minutes of fame.
And not surprisingly journalists can also sometimes feed into looting by covering it excessively, or by interviewing looters instead of peaceful protesters. In response to this pattern, some protesters will throw something or break a window just to get attention from the media. It has nothing to do with Floyd but with a whole lot of air time on the local TV station at 11. And they’ll be pointing out themselves for their family on the tube.
