Apparently this is an old video. Still funny.
 
How long do you think someone would last wearing a MAGA hat in any of those situations?

What was that dude thinking? Hope he’s ok.

Why haven’t they already been declared that?????
 
Quite a few cities having riots. Whether I overstated the issue is irrelevant, because the point that I made stands. Our nation is void of leadership, and Trump sounds like a moron.
Even if your point stands, its pointless. Was the country void of leadership during the LA riots? What about the Ferguson during Obama's tenure?

Animals are animals, and they don't respond to 'leadership'. Animals need to be ruled not led, which is why Iraq needed Saddam, and Libya needed Gaddafi. We like to think we're better, but the truth is that at least 25% of us are not, and thats not Trump's fault.

Our blame culture has finally caught up with us. The first reaction of so many in any situation is to blame someone else. Especially if it can advance themselves in any way. Our gutless leaders are so damned scared of making tough decisions because regardless of the decision, some will probably be hurt. So they half *** everything. It is our own fault. We get the leadership we deserve. I wonder if people in 1918 ran around blaming Woodrow Wilson for the flu?

This post should be stickied. Right to the heart of the matter.
 
I want to see moments of silence as well for all the black lives lost to other black people. That continues to be the elephant in the room. I acknowledge the police brutality, and the lives lost due to that. It is awful and has to stop. However, how can you address one and just ignore the other? Do the black lives lost to other black people not count as much as the black lives lost to police brutality?

You can address both, can't you?

Because a lot of people aren't willing to address that elephant yet apparently.

Nobody wants to address it because it puts personal responsibility on people. Can't have that. White man and orange man bad. Institutional racism (even when blacks are in charge), systemic racism (even when blacks are in charge), and governmental racism (even when blacks are in charge) are what they want to focus on.

BTW it was a white liberal woman and a black police chief that kept him on the force.

When I read that he had 18 official complaints against him, and was involved in three different police shootings (one fatal) prior to George Floyd, that's either the unluckiest cop in the world, or a lot of people share responsibility for this idiot patrolling the streets for that long.

Who said it was Trump’s fault. I said he sounds like a moron. He does.

And leaders would be out there having their police forces / National Guard putting this **** down. In many cities, they are having police pull back and allow this **** to happen. This stopped being a protest the minute the looting and fires started. They need to get this nonsense under control. Soon.

I get people are angry, but governors and mayors also have a responsibility to protect those that aren’t out there destroying ****.

Let's see if he follows through with it or just him talking out his *** like usual
 
My brother-in-law just called my wife. He lives in Albany, NY.

He said they are rioting and looting there now. Crazy, scary ****.

Now? In the daytime? That's different. ******** don't usually come out until sundown.
 
supposed to be a protest like .5 miles from my house. Hopefully it doesn't turn ugly

Those are all Democrat run cities. What exactly is Trump supposed to do. Declare martial law and take over the cities? I don't get what more you can ask of him without cooperation from the mayors and governors. States rights.

I was just thinking the same thing. Protests are one thing, even if all of the problems can be solve by being responsible, the the destruction and looting needs to stop, even if some feelings are hurt in the process.

Does that mean Trump can drone-strike Soros like he did the Iranian General?

Was there ever clearer evidence than now of the need for a citizen's militia? The cops seem to have stood down everywhere.

Broad daylight. Those pesky white supremacists:
