Like Tony Timpa who called 911 himself and ended up dead? That kind of restraint?You're very misinformed. You think the protest are because we want black people to be free to commit crimes without consequence? You may want to educate yourself. The protest are happening because a person of color being pulled over for a busted tail light should not end up dead, while someone that shoots up a church is taken into custody without a scratch and taken into custody without a scratch. A person of color, that "fits the description" should not be killed because they fit the description. Afford people of color the same liberties and restraint shown to white criminals.
Maybe.... I just see the same bunch of liberals talking about in on my social media.....not much convo from people that I’m not sure which way they lean.... my dad is definitely not a huge trump fan hasn’t mentioned it either..... just anecdotal type evidence but I have seen a huge switch here lately towards covid..... people seem over it and done with it.I’d rate it a 70.

I don't know... I will say that the strangest part of this, is that Donald Trump not only agreed to these interviews in the first place, but he also agreed to be audio recorded. Woodward just wrote a book two years ago (Fear) that was negative in nature and very critical of Trump's presidency. Did Trump actually think that this 2nd book was going to be something different? That is the part of this which really makes Trump look like a moron.
The center and right don't do things the left way - like go out and throw riotous temper tantrums when things don't go their way,
so no tan suit.....no Grey Poupon.....no riding a bike with a helmet? I am aghast! aghast I say!Woohoo! You're first Donny! The greatest dereliction of duty in US history! If you ain't first, you're last, as Ricky Bobby says.

I think you’re overselling the current American right.
The present Republican Party is embodied by the sky-screaming lady every bit as much as the Bernie Sanders wing of the Democratic Party. They just wear combat fatigues and AR-15s instead of pussy hats and skinny jeans.

I’m not saying there aren’t bad cops. No doubt there are just like are bad people in every profession but when it comes to cops anyone that is armed with any weapon is a potential threat. Cops are humans. They rely on visual, verbal, and other cues to determine if someone is a threat. Someone reaching for any kind of weapon is a threat no matter the skin tone.Although my wife and I are licensed gun owners, and both have CCP, we never open carry for fear of this happening. For some police, any person of color with a legal handgun is a threat. None of my friends open carry either.
I don't reach for anything even when they ask me to. I have everything in my hand. Don't want to give them a reason.I’m not saying there aren’t bad cops.

Armed Protesters Storm Michigan State House Over COVID-19 LockdownLet me know when you see a conservative riot. The closest you are likely to get is a Tea Party rally - and as I recall, they cleaned up after themselves.
Never said that. I was just pointing out that these people were indeed let free and that it wasn’t just bail. Now if they broke the law, as some of these “protestors” have done then they do deserve to be punished in some fashion and not just let off because they think their actions were justified.Prosecutors have dropped felony charges against 87 protesters who peacefully gathered this week outside the Kentucky attorney general’s home...
A Multnomah County grand jury heard evidence in the case and declined to return an indictment.
You want to keep people locked up for peaceful protests and having no indictments?

The ends of both parties are the same brand of angsty populism. Hell, you’ve got Trumpists on here that are bitching because an investigative journalist monetizes the demand for his work.
The difference is it is the platform on the right while the left has pushed their group to the side.
It seems some of the Australian right had a dust up with police but there was a whole protest about wearing masks where people dressed up in their GI Joe kit and drove around with their Trump flags blocking traffic.
It’s the same ****, different techniques and costume.
