At least 45 arrested after protesters throw explosives and rocks at police in Seattle, authorities s

That doesn't fit the definition at all.

Conspiracy theory:

noun
a theory that rejects the standard explanation for an event and instead credits a covert group or organization with carrying out a secret plot:

I am instead complaining that the incompetence and mismanagement of the Trump administration has contributed to the worsening chaos rather than alleviate it. It has been demonstrated aptly by these runaway events that Donald Trump cannot hold the country together in tough times.

So where's the conspiracy? I don't think it's deliberate, inasmuch as wilfully doing nothing because he doesn't give a damn can be called 'deliberate'. Otherwise I see no dark plotting behind the scenes: the president's rank incompetence has been front and center for four years now. We never get a break from it except when he's off at golf or sniffing his daughter's panties.
 
Is arresting 45 a message, or a premonition?

Nope, this whole $hit show belongs to socialist/communist/democrats.

There is not one Trump supporter among the criminal rioters.

It will just cause Trump to win in a landslide. Americans are not stupid, we know who is Behind this and why.

45 people throwing **** and they only hurt 21 feds?

It feels like they're just phoning it in.

No feds were involved, just local boys, so they may have been taking it easy/just warming up.

I only said that burning down courthouses or sending federal authorities to use strict force to tamp out protests weren't the only two options. If the answers were clear cut and simple, there wouldn't be so much unrest.

In this particular situation both sides need to tuck their tiny ****s back into their pants and back the **** up. If that happens, maybe progress on other problems can be productively discussed.

And if the militants don’t leave what do the Feds do?

Prove it.
 
I lived in Seattle, Capital hill, about a block away from the BLM takeover of the police station and park.

Just by the luck of the draw, I moved out to a quiet town, Issaquah, less than 24 hours before it all started, and I havn,t been back since.

Good to see that you still support such violence then.

Nobody "supports" violence. Have you consider the presence of a agent provocateur or two in the crowds seasoned with just a pinch of anarchists and a splash of plain ol' **** disturbers.


the peaceful protests devolve when that segment of protesters with direct action agendas, obviously having come prepared attempt to invade the court house, attempt to do so.

If the feds hadn't been there I bet there wouldn't have been any more riots, but their presence became a magnet. Their "tough guy" dominate the streets brutality rather totalitarian, especially since they're neither the police nor the army. Apparently the emergency at the border has been solved with only 3 miles of new fencing having been built. Wow, handy having some storm troopers available to defend and protect that border in portland and round up all the illegals in the mob.

Trump should let Oregon and Seattle be burned down as a lesson to all of what progressivism wroughts.

The police...secret along with not secret...are why there is civil unrest. They are the catalyst for it all. Throwing more law enforcement at protests is like throwing more Molotov cocktails at a fire in order to put it out.

Seattle and Portland have been an Antifa breeding ground far before George Floyd's death. Local and state leaders (in Washington and Oregon) have done little to nothing to address Antifa and they are reaping what they sowed. Antifa has demonstrated the use of violence to take direct action instead of through the use of policy. Do you actually think things will just get better by themselves if law enforcement leaves them alone?

The police were assaulting people long before Flynn. The difference is that Flynn, along with hundreds of other examples, were captured on film in a way that the public had never witnessed before.

He's causing it. Of course, you'll deny that the president threatening authoritarian rule is instigation. We have come to expect that from Trumpers.

Your still missing where you actually need proof of such claims. The same thing you been missing this entire time.

Also, the violence was going on well before the feds were forced to move it. So your lies are entirely transparent at this point.

IT is what Trump wants.

He wants his campaign to be a race war. He has been signaling to an angry white cohort ever since he started playing at running for President.

The GOP can’t say too much, because race baiting has been a significant feature of GOP politics for a generation. Trump just rips the very thin veneer of respectability off of it.

Fox is trying its level best to make its screen look like 1968. That’s what its audience responds to.

And scaring white people is core to the Trump message.

No, race baiting has been more your sides thing.
What day is it when one of you comes out and screams "racism" over something idiotic and even something that doesn't even match the definition of racism.

If you want to continue along this idiotic line of though, you're free to do so with my blessing.

But I've seen more than enough lies about this crap to know that you're just talking out of your ass at this point.

Maybe you should go back to pushing RussiaGate v3.5 or some ****, because this isn't working out for you. Those riots were going on well before the feds showed up and have continued with the support of the democrats, basically waiting on hand for anything to be done by Trump.

The most you can do is allude to him possibly doing something. Because just like always, you have no proof to back any of that hot air you're blowing.
So spare me.

I'm not sure how the above qualify as "protestors" given the indicated activities.

He hasn't done anything to stop them from burning down. In fact, he's made it worse.

But again, he lacks the stones to change a failed plan.

So no riots and giant protests happened under Obama right.

The only rioting I clearly remember was by Republicans right before the PPACA was passed.
