Eff this. The protests have been hijacked. If it were my store or property being threatened, I would be outside of it with my legally owned semi-automatic weapons ready to shoot any and all who threatened my and my employees' livelihoods. Trump actually had it right. The only way to quell mob mentality is with superior force and firepower. But we are not talking about peaceful protests here, which I support.... but this has nothing to do with the murder of Mr Floyd......

The vast majority of protesters would agree with you, but the ones on the fringes, left and right don’t want it to be that simple.
That includes the fool on the hill who wants you to be scared.

Why do you keep trying to frighten us about Trump? Do you want us to be scared? |

Trumps doing fine by himself 
In an address to the nation, the president vowed to deploy the US military to quell the civil disorder on America's streets (maybe the right wants to see this ? )
protesters tear-gassed so Trump can walk to church and holding a bible

TRUMP DEFENDER pull your head from his a s s .. police have a job and the military have a job and neither over lap ... let the police do their job and the military to theirs .fight wars .. you acting as if the United states has never seen unrest ..
You'd love to see dead protesters and applaud while it was happening and you think something is wrong with me.... its comical ..
I have no issue with shooting looters it will only take one ,,,but like most things you see looting and protest as one in the same ... just like police and the military
Trump should offer you a job you'll fit right in. |

Not scared, Pete. Fed up and disgusted, but not scared. Never have been expecting the government to pull us through. It has always been about the American public. They have been the ones doing the work and pulling us up by our collective bootstraps. But I question that now... just as I have questioned how some of them could come to conclusions about what is happening across the nation, and yet their vote counts the same as mine. Given the Orwellian overtones in your signature, Pete, I would include you in that group of never do wells, dotards, and incompetents waiting on a generational bail out. |
