The refusal to give context to "mostly peaceful" is dishonest at best. I don’t think anywhere close to half the protestors were violent or looting. I’d guess it was a lot closer to 1% than 50%.

But way less than 1% at the capitol. But for the blm riots, you are wrong. Those were at times more than 70% violent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hardcore troubadour 12,399 Posted February 22, 2021 Mostly peaceful doesn’t mean a thing to the guy who gets hit with a brick. It’s one of the dumbest statements in history. The day was mostly sunny except for the part where I got rained on. Only a Fockin complete idiot would repeat something so stupid. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MDC 5,803 Posted February 22, 2021 The majority of the George Floyd protests, a series of protests and unrest which began in Minneapolis, Minnesota in the United States on May 26, 2020, in response to the killing of George Floyd by Minneapolis Police Department officer Derek Chauvin, were peaceful; an estimated 93%–96.3% of demonstrations were peaceful and nondestructive, involving no injuries or no property damage.[13][14][15] Link There are a couple citations to three different studies at the Wikipedia page that have around 95% of the protests as peaceful. Haven’t read them but that seems right. If anywhere near half the thousands of protestors or protests were joke to it would’ve been a lot worse. The Capitol protests were mostly peaceful too. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They weren’t, but the BLM protests were a lot more like the Capitol protest than the Capitol protest was like the 9/11 attacks... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Muslims aren't blowing up in many countries on earth. Maybe if we just stopped focking around with that focking toilet, we wouldn't have so many problems. Hell, we're oil exporters now. We have spent TRILLIONS of dollars and thousands of lives to little to no avail on middle eastern adventures. And yes, we have killed thousands of innocents in the process. I say fock em.

Likely the way it ends is that China becomes the world superpower and just decides to genocide them all. Technically they are already doing that. China has 400 death camps filled with muslims as the genocide is in progress. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Voltaire 4,491 Posted February 22, 2021 I miss ISIL. I think a good two years of a Sharia law armed insurrection, especially while Biden* is on the clock, would be great for Amerika right now. I imagine that the first four months I would do nothing but applaud. It has to be temporary, just long enough for the chemotherapy to remove the cancer. If it lasted longer than that it would get old. Unfortunately, President Trump destroyed the. And even had he not, they're not much threat outside the Middle East anyway. I suppose that means that we have to either clean up this mess ourselves or whither away and die. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
