    My daughters father in-law is from Minneapolis and I was talking with him last night about the riots, he mentioned a friend of his that owned 2 shops in the area had several friends help him guard his stores showing they were armed, with sign's that said, just protecting friends business's, and they rioters went strolling by. They take the path of least resistance.

    Uh Batman is Justice League, which under the circumstances would have probably had a better ring to it.

    I personally have no problem with this. Tag the Proud Boys with them. Neither group are legitimate activists. Just a bunch of losers who didn’t get enough love from mom......

    Pretty ironic that a fascist would go after the anti-fascist.

    Your hero the orange cream puff is an embarrassment to any sense of American responsibility and pride....the Senate and Presidency are never going to be republican again...they've thrown away every chance thay had to prove themselves as leaders of a free people....your party of choice sucks and worships the wrong values....tear down your wall!

    You've been around long enough to know that this has been said by both sides about both sides.
    To know it's truly never going to happen.
    Therefore I hope you're fighting memes with memes.

    He will never tag them, or nazi's, or white supremacists as a terrorist group.

    The Nazis did this with the burning down of the Reichstag

    imagine telling this to an old slave 350 years ago and adding that one day we'll have a black president...or telling me in the 1950s that I could see someones face in another country on a watch and talk to them without any cords or lines....Dick Tracy shit....well, both have happened. I have children and grandchildren...that means I have optimism about life in the future here...if not, what's the point?

    I know. Its not just political. There's a common theme to it all. Just have to figure out what it is.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Over time, the world (and this country) drifts left, at least on social issues. And of course our understanding of science, medicine and technology is always growing. So, given enough time, things do improve. But that's only over longer stretches of time--in the short term, things can and do get worse at times, like these past few years.

    Well, let us know when you catch up and realize a lot of people are angry over another explicitly racist slaying by a policeman.

    If that's what this was about, we'd see riots every week. You're smarter than that.

    Make your mind as keen as your ninja katana.

    I think humans are designed to have higher intellectual ideals than their emotions can handle...design flaw built in I guess

    The common theme is it's a very bad year for Trump. This will continue to happen across every state. There are very few states were it hasn't if any. It will get worse. Trump will call in the military everywhere and militarize cities. This will piss people off more. He will be voted out in November.
