The rioting/civil disobedience started over Memorial Day weekend and I'm not talking social distancing. This is a cultural problem. And you are all part of the culture and therefore play a role in determining the outcome. Strange how libs, trumpers, minorities, professional agitators, all demand to be heard and demand their rights and freedoms. Complaints that someone else is stopping their right to freedom. I HAVE THE RIGHT TO DO THIS, OR SAY THIS ETC. THE FOUNDING FATHERS INTENDED ETC Most of us were born with one mouth and 2 ears. They should be used in that proportion if you want to change the situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see the fires burning in Detroit in 67 from Windsor. I was in lockdown in a bar in Niagara Falls NY during a riot, looking out through a window onto the street. Is 2020 going to be the same.

I sincerely do not say this to be mean; however, most of your posts have this rambling, "stream of consciousness" feel to them that make it hard to distinguish what your actual point is. I gather from this post that your point is we should listen more to each other. I have no problem with that. But, how does that apply to the looting, vandalism, arson, assault, etc. that the poster you were responding to was referencing. Are you saying that the criminal behavior we are witnessing is motivated by anything other than self-interests of one form or another? That, if we all listened to each other more the people engaging in criminal behavior would be different people and not the kind of people taking advantage of this situation?

It’s all about who made the kill. 2 hours ago, billsfan1959 said: You will never get anyone pushing the "systemic racism in law enforcement" narrative to engage in honest dialogue on this topic. Think about what they are saying: it is not just that law enforcement is a racist institution, but, that the racism among law enforcement officers is so pervasive and so bad that, as a group, they literally have no problem taking human lives, condoning it, and/or covering it up - because they hate black people that much. They cannot honestly examine the facts and legitimately hold that belief at the same time. Unfortunately, many Caucasians are buying the b.s and have declared war on themselves. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bilzfancy Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 I was watching last night as big groups were in front of the White House, and I know this sounds terrible, but I was telling my wife, I hope they storm the barricades, I promise the secret service won't be using rubber bullets. It will then end real quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is now nothing more than a public tantrum of utter nonsense. Precisely. A public tantrum is actually a mild term. Looters and rioters being celebrated by the msm, peaceful protesters who want to work for a living and have their freedoms were shamed and mocked for not “ social distancing” or wearing masks. Haven’t witnessed this level of stupidity in some time. I notice that the freedom seekers didn’t loot any Louis Vuitton stores or set buildings ablaze. These dill holes should be rounded up and forced to rebuild these areas for their sentence. 3 minutes ago, Prickly Pete said: Has there been any looting or even serious protesting in Buffalo?

bilzfancy Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 This no longer has anything to do with George Floyd, or black vs white, it's now outside agitators, antifa and Soros.

Let’s see how that goes for them. dude, they’re stealing tv’s and boxed whine. This is not and has never been about protesting injustice. It’s a nationwide tantrum of small minded, entitled pieces of trash that are fanned on and encouraged by the media and passive leaders in the cities they’re burning to the ground. According to you, those on this site are all just lines of words. Well, your lines of word are rather idiotic. Thank you for beong the voice of americans everywhere SMH ...just because you can lecture someone on a message board doesnt mean you are absolutely correct.

Reasons ??, don't know, but troublesome The underlying issues are separate from the criminal behavior. Right now I am watching criminals looting, vandalizing, destroying the possessions of others, and assaulting police and other citizens - across this country. There should be a focus on that criminal behavior right now and it should be stopped. They are criminals taking advantage of the situation. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't actual care about anything but damaging Trump. One was looking forward to some white kid protesters getting killed ala Kent State, saying how the only thing that will make them (white people) care is if white kids die, and it could turn the tide against Trump in the election. Didn't even cover it with fake somberness, but smiling away in anticipation. Real sick people. delusional thinking here again THANK YOU for speaking for the "they" you have not the slightest clue about.
