IN UNION THERE IS STRENGTH
I have watched this week's unfolding events, angry and appalled. The words "Equal Justice Under Law" are carved in the pediment of the United States Supreme Court. This is precisely what protesters are rightly demanding. It is a wholesome and unifying demand — one that all of us should be able to get behind. We must not be distracted by a small number of lawbreakers. The protests are defined by tens of thousands of people of conscience who are insisting that we live up to our values — our values as people and our values as a nation.
When I joined the military, some 50 years ago, I swore an oath to support and defend the Constitution. Never did I dream that troops taking that same oath would be ordered under any circumstance to violate the Constitutional rights of their fellow citizens — much less to provide a bizarre photo op for the elected commander-in-chief, with military leadership standing alongside.
We must reject any thinking of our cities as a "battlespace" that our uniformed military is called upon to "dominate." At home, we should use our military only when requested to do so, on very rare occasions, by state governors. Militarizing our response, as we witnessed in Washington, D.C., sets up a conflict — a false conflict — between the military and civilian society. It erodes the moral ground that ensures a trusted bond between men and women in uniform and the society they are sworn to protect, and of which they themselves are a part. Keeping public order rests with civilian state and local leaders who best understand their communities and are answerable to them.
James Madison wrote in Federalist 14 that "America united with a handful of troops, or without a single soldier, exhibits a more forbidding posture to foreign ambition than America disunited, with a hundred thousand veterans ready for combat." We do not need to militarize our response to protests. We need to unite around a common purpose. And it starts by guaranteeing that all of us are equal before the law.
Instructions given by the military departments to our troops before the Normandy invasion reminded soldiers that "The Nazi slogan for destroying us … was 'Divide and Conquer.' Our American answer is 'In Union there is Strength.'" We must summon that unity to surmount this crisis — confident that we are better than our politics.

A little past 7 p.m. Tuesday, police officers standing guard outside the state Capitol decided enough was enough.
A crowd protesting racial injustice had been chanting for hours, sometimes spilling into Washington Street, sometimes shouting epithets at the officers. It was almost two hours before Atlanta’s citywide curfew would require the demonstrators to go home, but a commanding officer with a bullhorn ordered them to leave, anyway. Immediately.
The officers, most protected by full body armor and face shields, strapped on gas masks. Some protesters, sensing a confrontation, began to run.
And then the officers fired tear gas canisters and other projectiles toward the fleeing crowd.
“Everyone was screaming, everyone was running,” said Hannah Riley, who had arrived at the protest minutes earlier. “It was a miracle no one was trampled.”
…………and you wonder why citizens are protesting?……….

When Antonio Gwynn Jr. saw the damage from protests in his hometown of Buffalo, New York, he grabbed a broom, bought some trash bags and started cleaning the streets by himself.
He started at 2 a.m. on Monday and did not stop cleaning for the next 10 hours. When an organized group of neighbors arrived later that morning to start clearing the damage, they found that Gwynn had already done most of the work.
Gwynn is an 18-year-old high school senior. He told reporters that he saw on the local news that Bailey Avenue in Buffalo was covered in glass and garbage, and he knew people needed to use that street to get to work in the morning.
When word spread of how Gwynn single-handedly took action, his community responded.
Matt Block saw Gwynn's story on the news and decided to give him his prized 2004 red Mustang convertible. Block, 27, said the car is one he wanted since he was a child, but these days he is only using it occasionally. He saw Gwynn ask for some car buying advice on Facebook, and Matt decided to offer up his sports car.
It turns out that gift has more meaning than Block ever imagined. Gwynn's mother, who passed away in 2018, also drove a red Mustang. When he realized the coincidence, Gwynn says that he was so shocked he "didn't have any words," and Block says it gave him "goosebumps."
Local businessman Bob Briceland learned of Block's gift, and he decided to extend a year of free auto insurance coverage through his insurance agency.
"I just felt compelled to help him out. We just need to get together our whole city and show people how there's so many good people here," Briceland told reporters.
After high school, Gwynn had planned to go to trade school while saving up to go to college. Upon hearing Gwynn's story, Medaille College in Buffalo offered him a full scholarship where he plans to study business starting this fall. One of his many career goals is to open a cleaning business.

LMMFAO @ WICHITA STATE UNIVERSITY TELLING IVANKA TRUMP TO EAT SHIT
they don't want her speaking at their graduation
WHY ?……….
because America has decided to get rid of the illiterate ugly obese caveman
its easy for you to believe that trump has a large support base, because if YOU live in that myopic world, then of course you'll assume you're part of a majority of voters who wanted him in office
but thats not true…. Hes got a VERY small base of supporters…
America is sick and tired of his bullshit
Hes going to lose HUGE because:
1: hes the most disgusting slob ever
2: hes the most embarrassing assclown ever
3: hes THE most hated sack of shit ever
4: Biden's going to pick a black female as his running mate
and trumps unjustified ego WILL BE CRUSHED

That's laughable, because the National Guard cannot "attack" citizens unless directly fired upon. It's against the law for the National Guard to police citizens, they were only there to protect property. Why is everyone against that? They did not fire one live round at any protesters!

Right, hopefully the thugs and looters have stopped and are being arrested. They shouldn't allow burning or looting property. Nothing wrong with peaceful protests. As long as they dance, whatever, that's up to them.
>FUCK THE SYSTEM !!! FUCK THE MACHINE
I wish they wouldn't vote at all. In fact, we should abolish The White House and Congress altogether. If they want to abolish police funding, ok then, BUT everyone must be able to be armed and defend themselves and their property! It's only fair. If you really want to buck the system, you have to give PEOPLE (all of us individually) control over our own lives.

It looks to me like they don't care that their cities got burned down, or all their businesses and jobs were destroyed. This is an indication, to me at least, America is at very dangerous crossroads.
I'll give you an example, last night I had a pretty bad dream. In my dream I was on my recliner, turned the TV off to get up and make something to eat. I briefly looked out the window and what I saw startled me. Graffiti everywhere, with boarded up windows across the street and bushes and such on fire, certain people with rifles and shotguns taking cover, shootouts from the distance, one of the graffiti sprayed on a house said "TAG! YOU'RE IT!" too. In the dream I recall immediately heading to my 12G shotgun, and about to assess the damages which I did not witness happening in real time, as I must have dozed off in front of the TV. Don't remember much else but in the dream it was as if I woke up in a total war zone, and there were deaths and looting and shootouts and vandalism all around me. Shit seemed so real. When I woke up this morning from the dream I actually headed for my 12G shotgun just to come to realization….. it was actually just a bad dream!
