Trump is using the military to crush freedom of speech

Nearly a dozen deputies injured from the sheriffs office. Police vehicles destroyed. 6 Waymo electric cars ambushed and destroyed. Stores looted.

$32 million in costs to LA taxpayers for emergency services alone. Not counting costs from likely lawsuits and private property damages.

Yeah sure local LE had it under control. It was only a mob of a 1,000 or more.
Your side participated in a coup attempt.

Stop spewing bullshit.
 
Don't forget, the Nazis & Soviets jailed undesirables by labeling them mentally ill.
 
You can be certain the victims of the violent Leftist mob wanted them there
Many immigrants from south of the border are anti socialist and anti leftist. Indeed, if Trump offered 'em armbands and two cars in every garage -- they'd be for him. Your posts are inside out and backwards. Your post is MAGA dogma that immigrants are leftists which is why it's wrong.
 
That's your imagination creating a wanted and needed imaginary problem that did not exist.

Not every civil disorder to include not every riot demands or justifies using military forces to suppress.

Trump is trigger happy and MAGAs cannot believably deny knowing this reality and fact.
The fact is the ICE officers on the ground were under assault by a violent Leftist mob as they carried out their sworn duty. Dismissing the threat to the officer's safety is an absurd attempt to replace the ICE officers judgement of the threat with partisan political pandering to a violent mob.


California's sanctuary state law is in practice a Democrat endorsed open defiance of Federal immigration law enforcement. Having sawed off the limb supporting the rule of law in the state Democrats have no choice but to support violent anarchists and Reconquista secessionist thugs.
At the Lafayette Square civil disorder of June 2020 across from the WH the Bloodthirsty Potus Trump told Gen. Milley and the then SecDef Mark Esper a West Point grad to have the DC National Guard units present shoot unarmed peaceful civilian protest demonstrators. Both Milley and Esper told Trump to put that order back up where it came from -- sideways. Trump wailed out that "Can't you just shoot them in the legs or something." Milley and Esper said NO and NO again and again.

The Generalissimo Trump has Bloodlust running through his veins. He is the last one to believe or defend for ordering in armed forces troops domestically. Unless of course one happens to share Trump's Lafayette Park bloodlust the Generalissimo revealed shamelessly and aggressively. Esper was fired soon after and Milley retired as scheduled with Trump wanting him punished for "treason." Milley and his family have 24 hour private security protection.
Your personal melodrama of Trump begging a traitorous General Miley to execute peaceful Lafayette square protesters ignores the mob assault on the WH, the burning of the church across the street and the "peaceful protesters" with chunks of cement and rebar.

Are we supposed to believe an incensed, bloodthirsty Generalissimo Trump having survived a near miss assault on the WH, the burning of the church across the street and the ongoing violence of the mob in the park wouldn't have replaced the Generals on the spot for defying his supposed order? Nonsense.

Classic whataboutism.

Have anything to comment on the violent Leftist riots in LA besides name calling?

That is not what is being discussed in this thread.

You are attempting to hijack the thread.
 
Alas, it's another speechless MAGA.

The TDS crutch is so old and broken down it's beyond repair or use.

So now the mud comes.


FAIL.
And yet you display all the symptoms of TDS right here. Denial is one of chief symptoms of TDS.

Immigrants categorically are not "Leftist." Neither are immigrants minding their own work and families a "violent mob." Nor are work, family and church oriented immigrants "thugs." Your posts are flat out OTT and luving it.

Trump-Miller and their Ice-Stapo have trashed due process and the Rule of Law in the USA. Your OTT posts luvit and want more of it.

The Ice-Stapo arbitrary "roundup" of peaceful mind their own business immigrants in LA is the work of aggressive gangs of roving paramilitary federal goons who are in fact civilian LEA and LEO with masks and automatic weapons in military vehicles. MAGAs luvit and want more of it.
 
MAGA speechlessness is confirmed.

It's the MAGA equivalent of the index finger on a drive by.

It argues nothing.
But it illustrates a lot.
 
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.
Get yourself a Canadian passport and go commiserate with Snowflake.
I'm certain you'd be more welcomed up there than down here where there are over 72 million people who were pleased that Trump beat another woman.

I'm all for actual capitalism and true Conservative thought on many, if not most, issues. Unfortunately we do not practice true capitalism in the US, but its bastard cousin called corporatism, and the folks who call themselves Conservatives these days don't hold a notion of what actual conservatism is.

REAL Conservatives don't spend like drunken sailors. They live within their means. They don't diminish the rights of others while attempting to retain their own. They do not abhor Golden Rule Ethical thinking but champion it, as they are well aware that you can NOT demand from others that which you are not prepared to give to others. REAL Conservatives understand the nature of coexistence is compromise. You just don't give the store away. You give and demand fairness in respectful bartering with your equals.

REAL Conservatives are not in favor of BIG anything. They are believers that BIG things get greedy and suck all the freedom out of any place they exist. This is equally true of BIG business as it is of BIG government. It is the enemy of entrepreneurship and innovation.

REAL Conservatives are BIG believers in Common Sense. They are practical, pragmatic, individuals.

You know what else REAL Conservatives do. They CONSERVE. They are all about conserving the natural resources, beauty and bounty of our land, seas and air. They have nothing against their use but it all should take place in a well managed framework built upon practical, pragmatic, scientific thinking.

I have no great need to run off to Canada. I just need the pretenders to Conservatism to stop usurping the label.

Maybe they should go to Canada? 😉

Says the right-wing.

My posts have links and evidence that do not come from right wing propaganda sites.
links from LW sources aren;t proof -they're propaganda.
 
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."
It seems silly to suggest it was "spontaneous" when the arrival of ICE and its protesters was telegraphed in advance in national media. But I bet the Waymo cars have nothing to do with immigration at all. When and if the culprit is found, I bet it'll turn out to be a cab or Uber driver ... a currently unemployed driver.
 
It’s fascism. It is widespread and it is systematic as the Heritage Foundation MAGA administration purposely works to socially engineer America as they actively re-write American history.

Not just schools, not just libraries, not just military but also in parks and museums.

Buried in the last paragraph of the hysterical article about National Park gift shops having to review their merchandise.

"Western National Parks, one of the largest such associations, is aware of the directive and will cooperate with park staff on it, spokesperson Julie Thompson said.

“Nothing has been dramatically impacted in terms of what we’re carrying on our shelves,” Thompson said…."

It's a big nothing burger but scream fascism anyway.

Logical arguments don't work on them. They only believe what they are old happens behind the scene and agree to ignore everything that is right in front of them.

You could go through the long list of fake stories they believed and probably the majority still believe they are true even after the stories have been debunked. We still see Democrats spouting the "Very fine people" lie years after it was shown to be bullshit.
