Good thing we got rid of those pesky feds who were causing this.
The pesky feds were Portland, not Seattle. As you can see in the above, the removal of the Feds there has really helped general civil order.

And we whipsaw back to Minnesota.
Even outside of the direct blast zone, progressive tolerance on full exhibit. And, as 93 is getting used to using this phrase in a smug manner, I will take the same liberty: Some Very Fine People.

RE: Violence at protests
Careful. They will put up competing coverage from right wing protests to show we are just as bad.
Oh, wait a minute...they have none.
"get out of here. You don't belong here". I am afraid this will be the attitude toward conservatives when the progressives take over.
The willingness to physically attack persons and property will be legitimized. "As long as you are upset, it is OK".
But here is the scary thing to me: law-abiding honest people - very fine people, IMO - like 93 and Lad will go to the polls and stand shoulder to shoulder with these not so fine people and cast the same votes for the same people.
I don't think the rioters (I WILL NOT call them protesters) are fine people at all. Protesters march, carry signs, and chant. Many fine people in that bunch. But those who attack people, burn property and loot businesses - not fine.
I also dislike the way liberals leap to conclusions based on race. Biden did this with regard to Kenosha. Obama did this with regard to the Gates incident. All the rioters and many of the protesters are doing this with regard with the incident(s).
I have seen the video on Kenosha, and what i see is a man disregarding police orders and diving into a car to get ...what? I can see where the cop(s) might be afraid of what he might surface with. But the crowd/mob/rioters/Democratic presidential candidates have all adjudicated the incident on the basis of race already. I wonder if our local leftists have already marked it down as a murder attempt by racists also. I also wonder what 93 and Lad see when they view that video.
I would like to see video from the beginning to the end. I would like sound. I wish we had body cam cam footage, but the cheap city council would not pop for it. Are they a bunch of Republicans, helping to cover up future murders?

RE: Violence at protests
The three videos I have posted kind of underlie how the progressives have morphed into Maoists and Jacobins.
It is something that the old fuddy duddy non-progressives noted well more than a couple of years ago as running amok in the colleges and universities. Now, those ****** actions have morphed to where that is the face of the left in the streets now.
In the one where the shitbirds are accosting the lady in pink -- turns out she has attended numerous protests and protested --- but the temerity of *not* raising your fist when the little Junior Jacobins tell you to do so.
The left has a serious problem. Something that they studiously still ignore at this point. Even when it is well past the 'oh how can you say that it is the junior leftists in colleges who are primarily responsible for shutting down speech and instigating violence over thought'. I can remember two or three of those in this forum alone when Coulter, Shapiro, and others have run the gauntlet at universities and been shut down. 'How dare you tag the left with this form of action and reaction, and more so than the right'.
Well now it has spilled out into the real world in that manner. I would laugh it wasnt so grotesque in nature.

This is an invitation to discussion. I wonder if it will be ignored, and if so, why. You other leftists, feel free to comment ( without Twitter)

4 years of orange might look good on her.

Maybe on a subsequent offense...Maybe when she feels entitled to do this again while on probation.
Thanks to her (and a few others), I am feeling more and more alienated from Rice.

RE: Violence at protests
Rule #1: dont underthrow your molotov cocktail.
Rule #2: someone get the dance tracks synched up to when some shitbird fails at Rule #1.
Question 1: is the following, or the same track synched up to 'Footloose' better?
I dont see the problem, the guy is substantially non-aflame (to track the substantially peaceful moniker that precedes descriptions of the above in the MSM)
