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?

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.

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.

Funny how changing two words of your comment changes it to be the side of the protestors. It's almost like people want the same thing and don't have that normally and are protesting that.

Are you using "protestors" and "rioters" interchangeably?

He does not see the difference!

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.
