And yet, ironically, Khatiri's professed first love was Lincoln who actually not only used force, but catastrophic, deadly force to totally squelch half a nation's claim to their Constitutional right to secede.
And on top of which, he falsely blamed Trump for deliberately doing it so he could have his Bible photo op--which, as Barr pointed out, was not the reason for moving the protesters.
But why do you choose that minor bone to pick on? His article and his idyllic view of "Americanism" seems to be based, as above, on some false notions and misinformation which severely and erroneously colors his opinion of which direction America is heading under Trump. And blinds him to the direction it has been heading before Trump.
But it really sounded wonderful. Which is how the left tries to direct us. With good words. Always speak nicely, politically correctly. Who can argue against nice, compassionate words?
And because Trump uses bad words, he is a bad person. And the country will go bad because of his bad words.

You’re repeating propaganda
The lies of this administration
They moved protesters with tear gas, rubber bullets and brute force.
They did it so Tweety could appear strong because his self image was hurt by someone saying he hid in the bunker.
Weak, incompetent and incapable of leadership this administration is failing, ask almost any General.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!
Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

If they’re using tear gas, why aren’t the security forces wearing gas masks?

So you think they’d be using it where they were standing?

Let just say there was no teargas ,,, used. Not sure how that changes the forcible removal of a protest so the POTUS can do a photo op and look like a tough guy
Not sure how flashbangs and batons and rubber bullets aren't bad enough
