Trump is using the military to crush freedom of speech

Iberian peninsula issues? Where did you get that from violent Leftist thugs waving the Mexican flag demanding reunification with Mexico? Do a little research, please.

Deny history? You're the one denying what happened in LA less than a month ago. We all saw the media coverage but you need more proof that the organized, Democrat approved secessionists weren't really carrying out the goal of Reconquista.

Do you feel this speech should be stamped out?
 
Surely a comment oblivious to the underlying facts of that event in relation and comparison to federal troops in L.A. Free speech doesn’t include the crimes of battery, disorderly conduct, which the colonists performed by throwing snowballs, debris, ice, clubs, sticks, and objects at the British troops, justifying an arrest of those colonists which never occurred as a result of the misfortune of a accidental rifle discharge by a British soldier.

The federal troops were deployed to impede, deter, prohibit criminal conduct of trespass onto federal property, vandalizing federal property, prohibiting interference with ICE agents engaged in their official duties, and precluding obstruction of the enforcement of federal immigration laws by ICE and federal agents.

The long American tradition of free speech has never included criminal trespass, battery, disorderly conduct, etcetera. Such tradition is conveniently forgotten, elided, by some when invoking the Boston massacre.

Yet the law enforcement community did not want them there.

Where did you get the idea I might support suppression of the peaceful advocacy of Reconquista? I am all for using whatever level of force including National Guard deployment necessary to stop Democrat endorsed secessionist violence and destruction.

Because you're complaining about on a thread about the repression of speech.

Since local police do not want the Guard there, have you considered the possibility that you are being misled?

What law enforcement community do you mean? It’s certain businesses and residents in the area wanted the street war to stop something local LE had shown no capability to do.
 
Silly librul! Free speech does not include attacking cops and ICE agents, torching police cars, etc.
Yup.
This latest 'free speech' claim is nothing more than flinging monkey poo at the wall to see if it'll stick, and will be an effective smear which gains traction.

Misled? Mostly peaceful protesters? Grassroots protests? People just having a good time watching cars burn? Who is doing the misleading?

Have you considered that local police take their orders from the same lawless Democrat hegemony that encourages illegal alien migration with sanctuary state ordinances?

How about the California Governor trying to position himself for a 2028 Presidential run. You think he would hesitate to copy Tampon Tim throwing open the windows so he could smell the city burning if he thought it was to his political advantage? Your being mislead if you think he'd be upset by the destruction.
 
The military can be temporarily deployed to restore order when local authorities are unable to do so. The anti ICE uprising is an organized, coordinated effort by violent Leftists attempting to create new lawless CHOP zones nationwide.

Believing the LA uprising was a spontaneous riot requires suspending critical analysis to accept the ambush of 6 Waymo cars was spontaneous, passersby just happened to have commercial grade fireworks and sledgehammers to break off pieces of cement to throw, in their backpacks. Or, innocent bystanders just happened to have high powered laser pointers to attempt to blind law enforcement. All of these tactics use classic radical Leftist techniques.

Identical Mexican flags, no doubt spontaneously generated, were prominently displayed at scenes of violence. American flags set on fire to the cheers of the violent thugs.
Loved your comment: "Believing the LA uprising was a spontaneous riot requires suspending critical analysis to accept the ambush of 6 Waymo cars was spontaneous, passersby just happened to have commercial grade fireworks and sledgehammers to break off pieces of cement to throw, in their backpacks."

Idiot Leftists and anarchists will believe anything from Left-wing news channels as long as it makes Trump and ICE agents look bad trying to do their jobs.
 
Needless to say, it’s factually incorrect. Protests co-existed with the presence of federal troops, except for when they breach certain federal property.

The hysterics of the prose is entertaining.

Can you cite a specific claim that is incorrect?

One of the fascinating aspects of conspiracy theories is that there is never a leader or group shown to have fomented the conspiracy.

That's why there is so much speculation about conspiracy theories.

I'm still trying to find out why the Falcons lost to the Patriots in the Super Bowl.
Their had to be a conspiracy there.

Maybe you can look into it after figuring out the masterminds behind the LA riots. 😀
 
Nothing to do with riots. Everything to do with intimidation.

Federal Agents March Through L.A. Park

"Dozens of federal agents were observed in the park, many arriving in armored military vehicles. They were joined by 80 California National Guard troops under the command of President Trump...

Tricia McLaughlin, a spokeswoman for the Department of Homeland Security, did not respond to specific questions about the purpose of the operation at MacArthur Park or whether anyone had been detained.

“The operation is ongoing,” she wrote in an email. “So that should be a message in of itself.”
 
[Trump] “We will not allow an American city to be invaded and conquered by a foreign enemy, and that’s what they are.”

Holy crap if that is not unmitigated evil.

Unleashing the U.S. Army on native soil, directly opposed to local government desire for their presence.

And that SCOTUS backed him on it is disgusting.

And that a third of us think this is all OK, even more disturbing as it states a massive lack of fundamental understanding of how this nation is suppose to work. A democracy that is not.

Wow. You don't know shite about what you post.
 
One of the fascinating aspects of conspiracy theories is that there is never a leader or group shown to have fomented the conspiracy.
One of the fascinating aspects of Democrat deniers is the unquestioning acceptance of wildly implausible "coincidences" like 6 Waymo vehicles lured to the riot zone for an ambush that left them destroyed, innocent passers by have commercial fireworks and sledge hammers by chance, and dozens of identical Mexican flags appeared spontaneously. Oh yeah, people just happened to have American flags and lighter fluid walking around downtown LA.

It's not a conspiracy theory when there is an unmistakably pattern of organized activity.
 
Sorry to break this to you, but I'm not Trump. Were it up to me every person who crossed that barricade on Jan 6 and went into the Capitol building should have served jail time.

This post is abhorrent.

Your disdain for Patriotic Trump supporters is duly noted.

MAGA.
