This dude still thinks people in costumes walking around the capitol taking selfies is an insurrection because they broke windows, climbed a wall and had what? a dozen altercations with police?

And I read the Trump quotes from that day the first hundred times this was brought up.  He didn't call for storming the capitol.  He specifically said be peaceful.  You're falling for wokie spin and you love it and want more.  You're probably one of the last 20 percent that even still believes it.  Take away the MAGAs and still most sane people saw what happened and shrugged.  If the 60% in the middle thought that was a real threat, Trump would've fried.

Keep in mind they tried to hang Trump for paying hush money to a porn star and exaggerating on a loan application that the bank said they didn't even care about.  Don't you think if there was anything legitimate showing he invited a riot, they'd have prosecuted him for that too?

You're listening too much to the opinions of the news you follow.  You have to discern what is factual and extract only that.  Then form your own opinion.  I know that is tough these days given everything is out of context.  That's why I stick to CNBC.  They get hushed quick the second they start getting political.  The only opinions you get are if the market might go up or down and speculation on why it might be happening, and even those aren't overly abundant since no one wants to be wrong.  Gotta love how getting people's money involved makes all this other fluff go away.  

You obviously haven't seen any of the footage, watched any of the videos, etc.  I also listen to CNBC, along with CNN and FoxNews.  Instead of limiting my opinions and remaining ignorant like yourself, I try and take in as much information as possible and then make my own opinion based on that.

And you suck at it because you clearly just google most of what you post.  I don't think you are good at filtering out the opinions of the infotainment you watch (and of course the people around you).

It's sometimes not easy to just get facts of what happened.  Take George Floyd.  People watched the video and were told police are hunting black citizens in the streets.  The video is the fact.  He was murdered unjustly.  The second part though is complete BS.  9 unarmed black people per year are killed by police.  That is a fact (may have changed since last time I chased those numbers down).  So clearly back people are not being hunted by police, but that was the whole premise of BLM.   George Floyd was resisting arrest after commiting a crime.  That's also a fact. The cop took it way too far (my opinion based on the video - factual evidence).  George Floyd was also a complete shìtbag (my opinion based on seeing his rap sheet - factual data).  MAGAs like to say he would've died from drugs.  That's a bad opinion (to me).  Yes it's a fact he had drugs in his system, but it's not a certainty he would've died or the drugs contributed to his death (in my opinion).

See how it's done?  Getting the facts may be hard, but you have to divorce yourself from the outside opinions.

No, It does not appear that George Floyd was resisting arrest: 

From a Google search asking if George Floyd resisted arrest:

No, witness accounts and video footage show that George Floyd did not resist arrest. In fact, Floyd was trying to defuse the situation and seemed to be cooperating with the officers. 

 

Elaboration:

• Expert Testimony:

  An expert witness in the trial of Derek Chauvin, the officer who kneeled on Floyd's neck testified that Floyd was not actively resisting arrest when he was restrained, and that he was not a threat to anyone's safety. 

• Witness Accounts:

  Maurice Lester Hall, a passenger in Floyd's car, told the New York Times that Floyd was pleading with the officer, trying to explain himself and show he wasn't resisting. 

   
• Surveillance Video:

  Surveillance video from the store where the incident occurred shows Floyd seemingly compliant with the officers' instructions, including getting out of the car and walking.

You keep repeating this nonsense of how I google what I post, how does that even work?  I ask google how I should feel or ask google to write a post for me?  Dumb, forget it, nvm.  Just pointing how dumb you sound.

Anyway regarding George Floyd I actually agree with you.  He was obviously murdered if you watch the footage, the rest if just noise.  If you look at the data the incidence of cops murdering black people is small, but it should be zero and people have a right to peacefully protest.

And if you watched any of the Jan 6 footage you would see lots of people beating cops, chanting Hang Mike Pence, bear spraying cops, breaking windows, trying to break through doors, etc.  You ignore facts like Trump telling people that the election was stolen and they have to fight like hell because it conflicts with your opinion.

It's always good to see what the other side is listening to, helps you to understand what they might be thinking.  You always want to try and get all sides of an argument so you can make your most informed opinion.  You want to try and see other perspectives and understand how the minds of others work.  Valuable in all aspects of life.

He worked  the Selma detail protecting and escort all four everyday 24/7. They we4e also used Mississippi for the same assignment. After an Edgar Evan’s was assanated. You go play with your legos and Malibu Ken Doll now..

Are you drunk already? I specifically said he used a law that hadn't been used since Kennedy. It federalizes a state's guard. What I read earlier said it was used last with Kennedy in 1963, but apparently LBJ did it in 1965.

It marks the first time a president sidestepped local and state officials in calling up state troops since 1965, when President Lyndon B. Johnson sought to protect civil rights protesters in Alabama.

Are you seriously comparing what's happening in Los Angeles to post-Katrina?

Not only is this NOTHING compared to post-Katrina, they were sent in for search and rescue.

Quote

In response to Hurricane Katrina, the National Guard deployed over 51,000 troops, making it the largest domestic mobilization in National Guard history. This large-scale deployment was part of the rescue and relief effort, with Guardsmen providing search and rescue, medical assistance, security, and other critical support. 

 

Key aspects of the National Guard's response to Hurricane Katrina:

• Airlift and evacuation:

  The Air Guard airlifted over 88,000 people to safety and delivered over 18,000 tons of supplies. 

   

• Infrastructure support:

If you want to provide any examples of local govt standing down and letting the riots happen so they can benefit, go right ahead.

If you spell Kenosha correctly folks might have a better chance of understanding your point, or refuting it, whichever.  At least they would be able to google the matter more efficiently.

If you Google Kinosha it will correct it for you, google is good like that.  Also if you have to Google Kinosha then it doesn't really matter of I spelled it wrong.  You knew exactly what I meant this proving the spelling error doesn't really matter

 The national guard has rules of engagement. The cannot arrest, only detain till authorities arrive. They were here to protect and assist law enforcement. Just like they are doing right now in LA as the mayor and govener sat on their hands getting ready make them numb and masturbate to this chaos created by them, Go to the nearest bar and have a few, ply Adkins’s, and bang a fatty fat fat.

My point being that Trump federalized the California National Guard, something that hadn't been done since 1965, despite the fact that this hadn't risen to the level that this was necessary because local resources had the means to deal with it He did this for two reasons:

1.) Exercising more federal power.

2.) To make a big show of himself as being a big tough guy.

He doesn't do anything that doesn't benefit him in some way, whether it's this or making outrageous statements that MAGAturds believe and keep him in the headlines, because narcissists such as him crave even negative attention, as long as it's attention.

Newsom has every right to be p!ssed that Trump went right around everything to federalize the Guard.  So much for Mr. States' Rights. It would have to be way out of control in California to warrant what Trump did.

The Chief of Police said at the press conference last night they were overwhelmed and officers were under attack.  He stated the guard hadn't been there enough yesterday to make an impact positively or negatively yet and depending on their capabilities he didn't know if they would be an asset or not.  He made an effort to not step on the politicians' toes, but his assessment of the situation on the ground wasn't the same as they portrayed.
