I can't believe the Secret Service is letting it go. This is crazy.

Been at work all day. What are you speaking of?
He just threatened to turn the US into a military state and threaten war on Americans if protests don't stop. (Hasn't officially invoked the Insurrection Act officially.)
It doesnt appear non of these mayors or governors are going to do anything but let their cities get looted and burned.... it quit being a protest about noon Friday...
I predict this thread to go about as well as last years FB season**
He is absolutely showing who is the leader of this country! He is a very brave man, very George Washingtonesque. Dantheman4248 it is an absolute that this insurrection must be stopped and quickly. The peaceful protests are one thing, but the antifas who are being funded by George Soros are out there agitating and causing the looting and violence. This is an insurrection and it must be stopped.
How am I a dumb mothe****er because that's literally what he said. He threatened to bring in troops and stop the protesting himself. That's a military state by definition. That's what he did. I didn't even condone or condemn it. I just told you what he told us.
How are you so blind with hate that you literally call someone dumb for factually repeating the guy?

Don't worry. It is. **** the press.
Here is the exact quote:
"As we speak, I am dispatching thousands and thousands of heavily armed soldiers, military personnel, and law enforcement officers to stop the rioting, looting, vandalism, assaults, and the wanton destruction of property.”
He pretty clearly condemned the violent part of things that have been happening, not the protesting in general.
Trump is a lunatic.
I have friends with business in the cities being rioted and terrorized. They say they hope someone grows a pair in government and shuts this crap down since local governments won't do it. Innocent people are getting beaten, and having their stores looted. I get all have political views, but we also cannot allow people roaming around doing this.
The exception is my friend in TX that just called me and has a business in the curfew area. If anyone tried to break down and loot his store (before he has to leave for curfew) they will get a ton of lead shot into them. TX will not play around. There won't be people being dragged out of cars there too much because most have guns in their cars.
No actually you slipped in "protestors" with rioters and terrorizing. Not even close. Peaceful protesting does not include what is going down right now. The peaceful protesting is actually the part that the majority of the country are all on the same page about.
But once rioting, looting, and organized political maneuvering starting getting into it, then the message is totally different.
As far as having their assets forfeited, not following you but would like to understand. It could probably open a whole can on more topics though.
Literally? Post a transcript.
He made abundantly clear his different view and strategy toward violent “rioters,” “looters,” etc. and non-violent protesters.
I stand (admittedly figuratively) with all the peaceful protesters. Against tyranny, they are my allies. Unchecked violence and property destruction simply must stop.
I'm 100% with you, Al. 1717171717 dantheman now and forevermore. 17 him!
You've proven to be a liberal loser, 28. 17 you and every demoncrat!!!!
Snopes say FALSE.

That'll definitely help the situation. FFS...
Edit: and by the way, statements like this is exactly why we can't have political discussions on the main board. You can be partisan, you can be passionate, you can even be stuck in your ways....but this blatant lack of basic respect for the other side is what moves us nowhere. I'm friends with many conservatives, Republicans, and Trump supporters of all backgrounds (even a few on this board); I've never equated them to "demons", or told them to get "17'd" as a group like you did. Being intellectually blunted is not a virtue, nor is it a sustainable strategy for moving forward.
So you're telling me he actually said he supported peaceful protestors as he had his riot crew beat on peaceful protestors who were not out past curfew and not causing any harm?
So you're calling MY president a liar? He just showed me he's not going to put up with peaceful protests. How dare you make that Godly man out to be a liar. Shame on you liberal scum always trying to make Trump a liar.
He just swung his penis and walked from the White House to the Church. Very powerful move by the President.
We have rioters led by insane left wing groups burning down black-owned businesses and communities. Why is putting a stop to that a bad thing? I just dont understand a certain population right now. You want these rioters to stop tearing up the black community- but get mad at Trump when he says he is going to stop it. Makes no sense.
Not a fan of Hitler... only God knows my heart, so I will let him judge my Christianity..... I have lusted in my heart, so I am guilty of adultery...
I?m in sales, so liar is a little strong, but I fall short by an infinite distance being perfect.... I am for small government, 2nd Amendment, less taxes, strong borders, but I even support a path for citizenship for those in our country undocumented.... I support our military, police, and those who protect us... nobody is perfect.... racist, yes because I am imperfect, and guess what you are imperfect too.... I believe we should protect children both inside the womb and outside, senior citizens, and handicapped...but if you don?t fall in those categories you need to fend for yourself and your family...I worked my way through High School and College, paid my Student Loans and Mortgage.... Still Saving for my retirement....rich by no means, but earned every penny I have...guess what, Trump is all those things you said, except the Hitler thing...the Hitler thing fits those doing the looting and burning.
All of you folks can go debate this issue (and more!) at https://sippolitics.com/.

agree 100%, and thus the politically funded and organized rioting worked for those that wanted more division. Because the country was way too unified on being upset about the real issue that happened. Agree that if states are not going to protect innocent people and allow buildings to be burned, people pulled out of cars, then I don't care who steps in to stop it as long as someone stops it. I can say no one is pulling me out of a car or beating my wife with a 2x4 without getting shot for it.
That is not close to what he said. He said peaceful protest are warranted and America is listening. He called out the people rioting and burning buildings. Peaceful protest is not rioting. I?d you riot and burn crap down then you should be dealt with in an extreme manner to get control of the anarchy
