I recall him urging whitmer to meet with the guys with guns. They were screaming in the faces of police, and nothing was done to them.

Police at some of these protests, have been shoving people who did nothing to them. They’re on video, and they don’t care. I’ve seen news crew arrested on TV, another crew had rubber bullets shot at them.

When they kneeled in protest, he got up and walked out.

Now rump is talking about how they're ready to deal with the protesters outside the White House. Apparently, they would be met with the most vicious dogs, and ominous weapons. The Secret Service are "just waiting for action". So, the Secret Service are eager to use weapons on American citizens?

@teasel

"Trump threatening to shoot American citizens, because he disagrees with them."

Post a video of Trump threatening to shoot American citizens...or a direct Trump quote...with the words in quotation marks from a credible source. And I don't mean Twitter or Facebook are 'credible sources'.

So, when are you going to get aroundtoit?

Mighty mouth don thinks his base supports his ugly rhetoric and maybe they do.
He should be aware hes losing his suburban women vote who wanted a business man not a viper spewing violence and hate.

Keep talking don 😁

I was up past midnight following the riots happening in my city. What I saw was truly disturbing.

Downtown small businesses destroyed. City monuments/ building vandalized and lit on fire. Cars wrecked, set on fire. Broken glass of store fronts of so many once thriving businesses, including a Pharamacy, and a local Pet Store (where the cats in the window once were, no one knows where they are now, truly heartbreaking). There were droves of looters - running into stores stealing things and quickly driving away.

There were also people of all races there earlier in the day peacefully protesting, and it turned into a riot as the Sun went down. This is not about race. These RIOTS are not justice for George Flynn and it definitely is not taking a stand against racial injustice or police brutality.

Violence is not solved by more violence. I am 100% in favor of your right to protest. If you really want to make a difference - a protest may not be enough. But a violent protest doesn't get the point across either, it just makes you look like an ignorant, hateful, despicable person.

You want to see change? BE the change. Lead by example. Help LIFT others up, ENCOURAGE your cause. Call your local government/representatives. Have conversations that lead to legislation. Most people don't even know who their local government is, and that is a problem. Take responsibility for yourself and your neighborhood.

What is happening right now in the country is not normal.

Just days ago - many protested the Covid lockdowns. There are many people struggling right now because of this, including people close to me - they are scared. They are scared that everything they worked for is going to be gone by the end of this.

These protesters, who didn't burn things down, didn't loot and destroy buildings - were told that they cared more about money than lives. They were called idiots for gathering and wearing masks - called hypocrites because apparently everyone who want to get back to work thinks that the virus isn't real. They were called conspiracy nuts. Which by the way - when did asking questions become conspiracy when you don't agree with the mass or the media narrative...something to ponder.

Well, I'm sorry, but I don't want to hear it anymore.

Anyone who said to my friends, that they care more about money than lives...and were at these protests/riots or support them. You are a hypocrite.

Hundreds/thousands of people gathering - supposedly putting others at risk with this virus, many not wearing masks. Hypocrite.

Destroying buildings, committing theft to local businesses. People work there. They support their families with those jobs. They may have worked their life to create that business. Now what are they supposed to do? Don't tell me lives matter more than buildings - they can be replaced -when your taking away peoples livelihood by destroying what they build up themselves.

This is a strange and dark time in America right now. There is no excuse for this kind of behavior.

You know after all the admonitions to stay home and wear a mask and not reopen the economy, and if you disagreed, you were a selfish human being, I see the same admonishers cheering crowds that are out there many of them maskless.

What happened to all the Covid fear of spikes that was supposed to keep us homebound out of consideration for others? LOL

That's why I take a lot of the moralizing from certain people with a pinch of salt.
And I think their pretend fear of the virus is just a smokescreen to keep the economy down.

Nah. Trump is not talking any differently now than he did when he was running. In fact, he has been remarkably consistent.

The surbuban women know who they voted for.

Yeah, all those terrible police officers deserve it. Those poor peaceful protesters, throwing rocks & bottles at police, setting police cars and vans on fire, destroying police precinct buildings, busting store front windows, looting stores and beating up store owners trying to save their businesses...aren't doing anything wrong.

Two Women Face Charges in Con­nection With Molotov Cocktail Incident in Brooklyn
Spectrum News Staff
May. 30, 2020

Two sisters from the Catskills are facing charges in connection with an incident involving a Molotov cocktail during protests Friday night.

Police say 27-year-old Samantha Shader, of the Catskills, is being charged with four counts of attempted murder after she allegedly threw a lit Molotov cocktail inside a police van while four officers were inside.

Police say the incident took place at the corner of Eastern Parkway and Washington Avenue in Prospect Heights.

In addition to the four counts of attempted murder, Shader is being charged with assault of a police officer, attempted arson, criminal possession of a weapon and reckless endangerment.

Police say she was taken into custody afterwards and bit an officer on the leg.

During the arrest, police say her sister, 21-year-old Darian Shader, interfered and was also arrested.

Police say she's charged with resisting arrest and obstructing governmental administration.

Law enforcement sources tell NY1 that the two women will face federal charges.
