OT 100% NOT the Official Off-Topic/Politics/Corona Thread

Hey Doyle here’s a 25 second video for you. So tell me, did this happen or is it just my opinion that it happened?

At one point, Rupert allegedly said, “There are SWAT trucks up there. They got SWAT trucks up there . . . I’ve got some bombs if some of you all want to throw them back . . . bomb them back . . . here I got some more . . . light it and throw it.” As he made the comments, Rupert allegedly handed out an item with brown casing and a green wick to others.

Rupert allegedly went on to break into a boarded-up liquor store, claimed to set a fire to a Sprint store and then took videos of himself taking items from an Office Depot.

Domestic terrorism should have zero tolerance. And I'll never understand why people video themselves committing crimes.

First, F..ck white supremacists. I won't ever defend them, but I think the last place they'd be is in the middle of these protests. They are too chicken shit to be in a crowd of black people.

Second, a lot of these videos of people inciting these riots don't look like white supremacists. I don't know if they are antifa, because I don't think they give out member badges, but these are people who are definitely co-opting these protests to incite anarchy.

Made me think of this meme I saw earlier.

Saw a video from a protest last night where some streamer was asking a guy if they could flip over a truck (I'm assuming so he could get the footage). Truck was a big ass box truck and the guy and people around him asked him WTF he wanted that for. Eventually, when more and more attention was being given to him as a problem, he ran away.
I wonder how much of this crap is fueled by these idiots desire to create a ton of followers on Instagram and other social media? One in 3 of them has a camera filming. Wonder why that is?

And there was the umbrella man busting out Autozone windows with a hammer who ran away when confronted by protesters. Dude was so out of place they were asking him if he was a cop.

No he hasn’t been convicted... though I’d be amazed if he doesn’t get convicted.

It would be shocking, but not surprising. The county medical examiner found that the death was not due to asphyxiation or otherwise due to the officer kneeling on his neck. Anybody who saw the video knows that is complete BS. It doesn't take a Stephen King-type imagination to envision the justice system failing again when the system is so rigged.

Our entire social system is being stressed to its breaking point. The person at the top wants it to break because he thinks it's to his benefit. I cannot overstate how dangerous that is. As a father of two young children, I am for the first time scared. At this point no one should be surprised at the lengths Trump will go to seek re-election and how far down the path his followers will go with him. Each cross of a line is conditioning to cross the next. It will get worse. We are on a road to an authoritarian government and there aren't many off-ramps left for us to take.
 
The Mayor is an activist and the Governor is controlled by activists and this is exactly what they want. Chaos to disrupt the election.

Damn Yoko. You offend half of the population with trash like this yet you preach peace and love. Good job.

I think Trump meant rioters, arsonists, and looters. Not “activists”.

“one who advocates or practices activism : a person who uses or supports strong actions (such as public protests) in support of or opposition to one side of a controversial issue”









Or did he?

It’s not how far Trump or his followers will go to seek re-election. It appears to me to be quite the opposite. At what length will the left go to destroy our country to overthrow our President

Fair point.

This is the problem at hand that seemingly will not and cannot be solved. Each side only sees it from their perspective that supports their confirmation bias.

Because it has been shown that most Americans can‘t think for themselves and believe everything they read and hear on TV, this divisiveness will continue to threaten our democracy.

Those who are in the middle and can see both extremes are ridiculous, Trump has implemented some good policy but is a complete social ruhtard, agree that George Floyd's death was beyond abhorrent and police brutality is an issue, but that looting, stealing, arson, and the shit show going on right now is bullshit... are left to wallow in no man's land and are letting these GD extremists on both sides ruin it for everyone!

Yes sir, two way street. It’s our way and it works. Let’s debate our issues, let only American citizens vote. Not this obvious attempt to circumvent by mail in votes, good grief. I did not vote for Obama and I still think he was the worst president ever but I pulled for him. Even though Benghazi. The breaking point for me was the deal with Iran! Why? But we can recover, it’s who we are. Well most of us
