This guy just wanted all the Mexicans to be immediately murdered, I think. Might be funny, but I don’t think we’ve reached enough rage from the American public at these people quite yet for the average voter to call that justified.
i think we have. i think that we really do just need to go full in and put the boot to these people so they stop being so uppity. i dont think most americans would care or disagree with us just beating these fucks to death already theyre acting like theyre above the law and can assault store owners and take their shit or destroy it for fun, fuck em. just end them already. people voted for trump to end these people
 
I would have liked to have seen the marines actually go in, the stream im watching still has lots of rioters having fun doing riot shit. I guess I just disagree that it would be impossible to stop them.


This would be cool, I hope so.
You're a low iq dumbass that didn't realize I was making fun of you. The Marines and guard will be plenty for this rabble
 
Holy shit Fox 7 Austin is showing where the cops took the highway near Alameda but the protesters have the overpass so it looks like ~12 cop cars got abandoned bc they're surrounded on all sides from above, and the cops have fled on foot up the highway basically spraying nonlethal stuff to secure their escape. Those cars might be fucking toast without some backup for HCP.
 
Trump isn’t going to initiate a military response without threat to life. The National Guard is for protecting Federal buildings and officers. He is letting the city deal with the protestors unless a clear threat to life establishes.

Normies already see this as another Newsom failure. Dems are in damage control. Trump already won this one guys.
He won the moment they started rioting.
 
Relax. You're trying too hard.
I'm just saying the things that pop into my head, as I have for 4 years or so on this site. It's never caused such a stir before.

Hyperbole is fun imo if you disagree and think my posts are too over the top I think there is a block option so just block me and move on. My posts are almost always going to be over-the-top and hyperbolic, if you're looking for grounded realism you're reading the wrong posts.

This is basically my take as well;
There's a discrepancy between what he says he's going to do and what's actually happening. There is reportedly only 300 national guard troops in LA right now of the 2000 he threatened, and no marines. LAPD is not doing anything either. Waymos dying left and right. Chaos reigns. If you take away the social media posts, nothing is being done.
I'd be happy to be proven wrong and have something actually happen but its mostly just a standard riot and Trump tweeting cool stuff while people have fun burning cars.
 
I'm a pacifist as far as reasonably possible. You'll never find me mindlessly cheering on the escalation of violence. I also have the foresight to see the inevitable responses and consequences to this. I'm sorry your inferior intelligence makes this feel unrelatable.

Sending the military in is not the problem in itself, but the immediate signs of escalation and rejection of self-restraint. Public safety should be their absolute priority but they're already agitating by implying they want to kill people ("deportation is the moderate option").

Because cowtowing to the riots worked so well back in the summer of 2020, right?
