REAVERBOT: IYou just parrot every Russian troll talking point in the world. You're not unique.
Everything I post is to make America stronger and better: self sufficiency, solid currency, environmental remediation, substantially reduced foreign military footprint, less "interventionism", more wealth equality, genuine equality for all, protecting our rights under the Constitution.
What are YOU for? Moar war? Moar financialism? More internal dissension? More tribalism based on victimhood? Mob rule? More riots? More looting? More illegal immigrants?
Fuck you, REAVERBOT. Don't you think that everyone can see your pattern by now?? That when you run out of anything rational to post, you resort to name-calling?

Quote:NOT PROTESTS. I think we ALL recognize by now that they're are NOT simple protests, these are exercises in rioting, insurrection , violence, and mob rule. Any article that attempts to spin events as "protests" has immediately forfeited credibility.

RNC speakers portrayed cities with ongoing protests
Quote:SUCH AS?
I'm sure I Democrat-run states as "lawless," brushing over instances of white supremacists escalating to violence during the demonstrations.
Arrests? Videos? links please!
Quote:NOT peaceful protests
Neumann called the portrayals "completely a sideshow to distract from the real threat."
"There are multiple arrests that the FBI has conducted in the last few months at these peaceful protests
Quote:Evidence? Links?
where you have right-wing extremists coming in trying to take advantage of the cover of the protests to carry out these violent acts and they are trying to start a race war," Neumann said.
When someone starts out by lying, it called into question everything that follows
Lol

Meanwhile, Trump supporter shot by sniper and killed

'I'm Not Sad That A Fu*king Fascist Died Tonight': Left-Wing Portland Protesters Celebrate Murder Of Trump Supporter
Summary:
An alleged Trump supporter was shot dead in Portland late on Saturday as protesters from rival groups clashed in the northwest U.S. city, which has seen frequent demonstrations for months that have at times turned violent. Sounds of gunfire were heard in the area of Southeast 3rd Avenue and Southwest Alder Street, according to the spokesman’s statement.
Police said in statements that both the death and protest violence occurred in downtown Portland. However, they did not immediately link the shooting death to the protests.
“(Police) responded and located a victim with a gunshot wound to the chest. Medical responded and determined that the victim was deceased,” a Portland police spokesman said in an emailed statement. A Homicide Investigation is underway.”
The police said they were not currently releasing suspect information.
The New York Times and the Oregonian newspapers reported that a large group of supporters of President Donald Trump had traveled in a caravan through downtown Portland, with a pro-Trump gathering drawing hundreds of trucks full of supporters into the city. The Times cited two unidentified witnesses as saying a small group of people got into an argument with other people in a vehicle and someone opened fire.
The man who was shot and killed was wearing a hat with the insignia of Patriot Prayer, a far-right group based in Portland that has clashed with protesters in the past, according to the New York Times. Reuters could not independently verify this.
When asked by Reuters if the shooting was related to clashes between rival protesters in the same area, the spokesman said “it is too early in the investigation to draw those kinds of conclusions”.
Update (1220ET): New footage has emerged suggesting that the shooter may have been in a vehicle.
MORE AT ZEROHEDGE
I will get the exact link later.
Did the victim do anything to precipitate the violence? Was this killing in self defense? Or was it entirely unprovoked?
Meanwhile, the killing of this person is being celebrated by the howling mob.

"Last night, an event that was clearly intended to intimidate, provoke and endanger individuals resulted in a fatality. The loss of life is tragic and unacceptable.
"We are witnessing the self-perpetuating cycle of violence fueled by white supremacy. We cannot forget that the protests Portland has seen for more than 90 days began in response to the police killing of George Floyd, an unarmed Black man who was then the latest victim of a long and horrendous history of police brutality against Black people, itself a feature of the systemic racism that poisons our country.
"While the overwhelming majority of protestors have engaged in non-violent demonstration to call for police accountability, racial justice and the dismantling of racist institutions, we have also seen instances of interpersonal violence, vandalism and destruction.
"Then last night — stoked by a president who has gone out of his way to demonize this city and encourage vigilantism in service to white supremacy and his own fragile ego — armed participants of a pro-Trump caravan terrorized downtown Portland, driving their vehicles and shooting paintballs and pepper spray directly at community members and journalists. They came to create confrontation and were able to do so.
"This tragedy will be used to justify escalating violence. It will be used to paint an entire movement with a broad and misleading brush. And sadly, it will be used by the occupant of the White House to deepen divisions and fear.
"Those of us who believe in, and are working toward, a more just and equitable community must take an unequivocal stand against the violence that structural racism inflicts on Black and other people of color, against violence inflicted by police, and against violence between community members.
"And the most effective way to do that is to stand for and build toward something better -- to engage in the hard work of transforming the public safety system, ensuring equal opportunity and making tangible progress toward racial justice. Multnomah County is doing that work now, and we are wholly committed to the long-term work ahead."

Does looting, burning, murder and attempted murder, and rioting count as "hard work"?
Do you know what counts as "hard work" in MY book? LISTENING to people. Treating EVERYONE with respect. Eschewing violence, and controlling your protests such that they can't be used as cover for more violent groups. FINDING COMMON GOALS. NEGOTIATING WIN WIN SOLUTIONS. PROBLEM-SOLVING. FACING REALITY HEAD-ON AND DEALING WITH IT. MAKING INDIVIDUALS ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR OWN ACTIONS THRU DUE PROCESS. NOT JUMPING TO CONCLUSIONS. DEMANDING EVIDENCE.
Being a rational human being and a responsible community member: the hardest work one can ever do, because it requires taming the swell of outrage and righteousness that wells up in everyone.
What I'm reading is just blame-shifting. In their view it's the victims fault (who may or may not have been paintballer) that he was shot and killed, but it's an outrage that someone being chased by a mob, some of whom were armed with real guns, turned and fired on the mob i

Right now, there is NO EVIDENCE that THIS PARTICULAR man who was shot and killed was doing ANYTHING to justify the violence aimed at him. Maybe that will come out later, but from the info that I have now, it was purely an unjustified act of murder, no matter how BLM/Antifa tries to spin it.

You keep referring to all this looting and burning and murder as if it were being done by the left, when it's the Nazis you love and support doing it.
Why do you Russian trolls lie so much? It's stupid. We see right through you.
