Agree. And we have seen this before, it started the same way in other cities years ago, and ramped up into a real mess. So far, the actions of the federal government appear to be impding a repeat of liberal violence.

Yes, the admin is staying out of it The Trump administration has publicly distanced itself from Israel’s strikes, . Rubio emphasized these were unilateral Israeli operations with no direct U.S. military involvement . Officials have made it clear that the U.S. will not participate in offensive operations against Iran, including bombing or coordinated kinetic actions . They are doing the exact thing we all want and its OK to accept this, even if you hate the man you can like the decisions you wantd.

But were later grateful they had them.

To be fair, information coming out of LA has been rather conflicted. I expect the politicians to frame it to suit their desire for power.....but when it comes to the local police themselves, I expect them to be less inclined to that. I am certain that both Democrats and Republicans are lying about anything to do with stuff happening, they are politicians...they lie....sadly, media now lies with them....so I would hope the locals in law enforcement on the ground do give us the best info.

Well, your statement was to not get involved and let those two work it out and that is exactly what is happening. Now, dont feel like you have to oppose anything he does even when its what you want....its ok to be satisfied when he does things you actually want....

I am sorta p!ssed myself here, I should have noticed this......but did not until invited to provide some proof, now I see him for what he really is....

I am observing how much better this has been handled than the prior riots, and drawing a conclusion, absolutely...that is how adults work. Moreover, it worked pretty well when Waltz put the NG on the streets during COVID, so we have examples of this being effective....to include, and perhaps especially, right now. " California Democrats who have insisted they have the situation in hand — Los Angeles Police Chief Jim McDonnell admitted that his officers were “overwhelmed” by the scale of the riots, which have continued for four consecutive days in Los Angeles. “We are overwhelmed,” McDonnell said at a Sunday evening press conference. “Tonight, we had individuals out there shooting commercial-grade fireworks at our officers. That can kill you.” https://www.nationalreview.com/news/trump-deploys-national-guard-to-los-angeles-as-immigration-riots-rage/

Hold the phone.....I see a trend here... OK, you little whiney b!tch.....you are in every thread asking over and over again link link? link? link.. like you have some perverted version o-f Tourette's... And then when you get the link, yo just pretend it is not valid... I am sorry dood, that is a total b!tch move..

I like this one because you just beleive anyone with a blog is a "phd"....or that having a PHD matters... But linking to a blog for your position? What, was wikipedia down?

Normally...I would not spend too much time, but since you asked so nicely, and I have time to search through years of posts....lets just get down this road, shall we? Let's start with this post.... Now, you used the term "reportedly" as if you ingested that thought or position from some random source, but gave it enough credence to post about it.. Now while you backpeddal, spin it....reframe it....all that jazz, I will keep looking....since you are so sure you are impartial....

I tend to believe, perhaps naively, that anyone can be salvaged. And if we present them with enough actual logic....and those farcical notions they have been fed can eventually erode away. I see people who escape cults saved and if we can accept that liberalism has itself become a cult, then we have an obligation to help those people. Keep in mind, some may want to escape it....but are afraid of being "Fetterman'ed' , or "mayors Adams'ed" ...or "Tulsi Gabbard'ed".....fear of the cult and its retributions cannot be ignored.

So....then.....if they are guarding those buildings....instead of law enforcement.....what do you suppose that might mean for law enforcement in terms of dealing with the rioters?

I think you are purposely ignoring the reality of this situation, having spoke to you in the past I an fairly certain you are not this obtuse. You DO understand how these resources are being used, right? I mean, I am finding it unlikely you do not understand.....

They in fact do.....their presence allows the police to apply resources more effectively. Confronting the violent leftists more securely. Moreover, they present a level of threat to those on the left seeking violence that can dissuade them. This is how it SHOULD work.

Wait....you WANT them to do something? Like what??? Dude.....c'mon now.....

And that you are not experiencing the hell cities have in the past at the hands of violent leftists is something you should be thanking Trump for. He elevated YOUR well-being over politics.....that is what a real leader does

Agree! I am sorta surprised you are in lock step with the Trump admin on this, but I think its great you see it this way.

Politicians lie, and that is what they are doing. I just spent a few months on the ground in Israel and Gazs.....I assure you, they did know....

I do not concur with your interpretation as to what transpired. I do hope the other teams in other cities hoping to replicate the leftist violence of the past are taking note and realizing they cannot terrorize our citizens this time.

You may say that, but to date I have only observed your morality to arise when it suits your political positions. I allow that you might be maturing in this area, but will need to see something tangible to believe it.

These riots did not achieve that level this time because Trump took action. We do not need to wait for leftists to once again burn and loot and terrorized good people to act. We know from those prior riots how they will conduct their operations. Stopping them this time before they could really bring their shock troops into action was a brilliant stroke.

Perhaps you would hold their opinions in higher value if they instead were criticizing Trump. You will have to excuse me if I decide to not hold your opinion as anything other than a partisan bit of nonsense. Were you to apply that stance evenly, your words might hold value.

I wonder if they can trace some of this back to USAID? That would be interesting.

Correct. Dems are rather p!ssed because they really wanted to pretend this was Trump-induces chaos......ignoring the fact that their political gamesmanship with regard to riots is always at the expense of everyday good people. Trump took that away from them by quelling the violence, and this really angers them more than anything else

I am always bemused by the sudden sensitivity of liberals to validity of sources when it suits them
