Tim loves polls as long as they support his position.  Post one that doesn't and he says it's wrong.

Here's an idea. Go after the left mouthpieces who are/have been inciting the mob, many of which are already mentally ill.

Yeah, I'm talking about Rachel Maddow & company.

June 2024

Rachel Maddow said she is “worried” that Donald Trump returning to the presidency could mean she might wind up in “camps” intended to house illegal immigrants.

The MSNBC primetime host told CNN on Monday that she was “worried about the country broadly if we put someone in power who is openly avowing that he plans to build camps to hold millions of people, and to ‘root out’ what he’s described in subhuman terms as his ‘enemy from within.'”

Maddow added: “For that matter, what convinces you that these massive camps he’s planning are only for migrants? So, yes, I’m worried about me — but only as much as I’m worried about all of us.”

Was she wrong?

Yes

The article you included is about deporting known criminals. Huge difference.

Violence is often more easily started than stopped.  It also tends todiverge from whatever purpose it may originally have had into unrelated and unexpected areas.

 

Most people are not nearly so good at violence as they may imagine they would be.  Others, well others may be gifted at violence.

You're right. 

But he started off by saying non-criminal illegals would not be deported either, but they are, sometimes in direct conflict with existing court orders. Why should we trust a man that has been known to lie about practically everything?

Democratic lawmakers say their voters are enraged at the lack of ability to counter President Donald Trump's agenda, with some saying they could resort to "violence," Axios reported Monday.

The outlet says it spoke to over two dozen House Democrats to measure the temperature of the Democratic base. What it found was red-hot anger and a burgeoning desire to circumvent the rule of law, where explanations that Democrats simply don't hold enough power in Washington fall on deaf ears.

"We've got people who are desperately wanting us to do something... no matter what we say, they want [more]," Rep. Brad Schneider, D-Ill., told the outlet.

Most of the lawmakers spoke on condition of anonymity. Schneider's office did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Fox News Digital.

"Our own base is telling us that what we're doing is not good enough... [that] there needs to be blood to grab the attention of the press and the public," one such lawmaker said.

Another said their constituents are convinced that "civility isn't working" and that they should prepare for "violence... to fight to protect our democracy."

 

Yet trump wants to promote violence at the White House.

He may lie more often than the average politician, but they all do it.

Whether you choose to call them illegal aliens, undocumented, migrant workers, whatever the case may be, they are all criminals even if they haven't committed additional crimes while they're here.

I agree it won’t be justified, I’m just saying it will be inevitable. When the police act unjustly, some of the public will act unjustly too. That’s simply a reality. 

So when you're in power you expect everyone to stay silent and play nice.  When you're NOT in power then suddenly violence is okay?  GTFO.

You guys have been violent since Occupy wallstreet.  It's about time someone responds IN KIND, rounds all the violent leftists up and throw them in the slammer for a decade or more.  Heck, I'd even be okay with deporting them to North Korea or their favorite Communist country of choice.  Citizenship revoked here and a one-way ticket.

No one cares what you think either, dbag.  And yet here you are, telling others what you think.  

Maybe "think" - if you can - next time before you post a reply because you might save yourself some embarrassment.

So for now, GFY and head on over to your Boyosexual ghey weight-lifting forums, Komrade.

This made me laugh, because I inadvertently became part of an Occupy Wall Street protest in San Fran in 2011. Wife and I went to there to celebrate our anniversary, see some sights, and buy some baby stuff for our first kid, which she was pregnant with.

It was fleet week, so we saw lots of Naval ships and the Blue Angels flew over our heads while we toured Alcatraz. It was awesome, but very loud. It was also the same weekend Al Davis passed away. We had a nice dinner downtown, and when we left we were suddenly caught in the protest. So we took part for a while, as a "when in Rome" sort of thing.

We just stood on the sidewalk while watching naked hippies holding signs and dancing in the streets, two dudes 2 feet in front of me rolled and smoked a joint while 2 feet behind me a couple of bemused cops just stood, taking it all in. It was SF in a nutshell; all that was missing was some good tunes and hits of LSD.

It was lots of things: debaucherous, loud, funny, hectic, totally disorganized, with lots of nudity and weed. What it most definitely WAS NOT is violent.

There is no justification for violence at this time. But if ICE keeps arresting undocumented people who are not violent criminals, it’s going to happen.

There will be with Latinos in many major cities if they keep seeing friends, neighbors, relatives and co-workers who have no criminal record, being snatched off the streets by ICE - they were told by Trump ICE would go after the violent criminals first but that is not what has happened (because they can't find enough murderers and rapists to meet their quota).

Meh. I was in SF, that's from Seattle. Everyone knows there's a bunch of heathens in that town, right @thegeneral? 

Point taken though. I think that both of our perspectives are valid; I was on site participating in a non-violent protest that was not only harmless, but kind of fun. Meanwhile, some nut jobs in Seattle broke shlt and got into it with cops. So Occupy protests were both violent and peaceful.

I'll say this: if you're dumb enough to be at a protest wearing all black with your face covered and carrying anything that can remotely be construed as a weapon, you deserve what you get. These guys are useless scum and simple opportunists. They have nothing to do with the protests, they are rank criminals that make the protestors look bad.

I remember ESU throwing nets on people in NYC during the republican national convention in 2004. Good times.  Some humans got caught up in them too. They were quickly released and got paid.

Seattle has gotten too expensive to have the homegrown rioter types. Rent is beyond crazy and home prices even worse due to all the tech bros.

Those people are mostly commuting from Portland, maybe Tacoma.
