It’s just a right-wing talking point. Only 12 blocks in Portland are being destroyed. It doesn’t really matter who and what gets hurt in the larger scheme of things so long as the ‘message’ gets out.
Nothing to see here… Just federal agents getting hurt and blinded protecting federal property. It’s no big deal though.
It’s not like it’s one black guy getting murdered by a white cop… That’s war! Hurting federal cops is no big deal. They don’t matter. Fuck them and their families.
Law enforcement = bad
Lynching = good

It’s the reign of terror without the revolution.

Well, the death toll is now 29 as a result of “peaceful” BLM protests.
In Seattle, 12 police were injured, one seriously when a peaceful protester, peacefully threw a peaceful explosive that blew up around a policeman’s knee. He’s maimed for life. His life doesn’t matter.
“At least one person broke through a fence line at the precinct, authorities said, and moments later a device explosive that left an 8-inch (20-centimeter) hole in the side of the precinct.”
Let’s pretend for a moment the explosive was thrown by a Saudi national who was yelling ‘Allah Akbar!’ when he threw it. What would we have called that?
If you said an act of terrorism, you are correct! Get yourself a cookie.
‘Silence is violence’, ‘Speech is violence’ but actual violence is “peaceful protest”.
The upside down, we are in it.

We can’t let them win. I like steak too much.
Why is it the men are all skinny and the women all fat?

Out of curiosity, has Biden denounced these riots recently? The last word I see was around the first week of June. That can’t be right…Anyone point me to something. Has Biden, a Presidential candidate, spoken out specifically on the siege against federal property and agents?
Attractively challenged.

Each day rioting…with most probably not even knowing what they are rioting for…and CERTAINLY with no end-game…puts Trump one step closer to re-election.
The left has labelled them anti-racist and police brutality protesters so you can’t criticize them.
It’s all about Trump. If they told the truth about how they are a bunch of outcasts on vacation from their parents’ basements and were anarchists and communists that didn’t believe in free speech, laws, civil rights, getting a job, were violent, lacked empathy, and wanted the government (in spite of not believing in government) to support them, people would agree with Trump cracking down on them. They are also racists but the media has to keep that a secret too.

Hey, @zecarlo!
Maybe that’s the end-game! Riot until the next stimulus check comes!
Their parents probably file taxes with them as dependents. Those that aren’t dependents are probably the meth addicts (they make up a significant portion of Antifa) and the homeless.

Seriously, at this point, it’s a white Marxist movement wearing black face (as I’ve seen it put). And, judging by many of their mugshots…Yeah, they probably weren’t well adapted to living lawfully and orderly in society while working a 9-5.

@Mufasa I really don’t think Trump can pull this off again. He’s screwed up the pandemic response too badly, and in September when he reopens schools on the federal level and the virus kills children / teachers like serial murder is going out of style, he’ll be polling even worse. I hope he doesn’t reopen schools and that we find another solution to the problem of parents needing to return to work and childcare being reintroduced somehow.
Hey, @liftangryordie500! Thanks for the response.
Trump…what’s the old saying: "Fool me once…shame on you…Fool me twice, shame on me?
I have about as much “faith” in the American Voter as I do Trump right now.
It all depends on the protests, whether the violence will be enough to draw attention from the pandemic.
Paradoxically, Trump has to rely on BLM and Antifa to get reelected.
Right now they are providing unlimited video material for the Trump campaign.
Should cut down on production cost, for sure.
