    I probably agree with you on pretty much everything big:

    1. Racist outcomes of justice system. Many videos to show it.

    2. People should be out by the millions protesting.

    3. Someone is spreading propaganda in a systematic way to spread fears that Democrats/BLM want a race war.

    Here is probably where I disagree:

    1. I don't think dirty cops are mostly responsible for the racist outcomes. I believe it is mostly the system. The justice systems across America didn't flip a 180 after the Civil rights movement of the '60s. I don't think it is even possible to steer something like a justice system that evolved over centuries like an F16 jet. It's probably similar to the economy in that it can only be steered like a ship. And I do believe it took a positive turn a few decades ago. Also I don't believe every video of a black man being shot is evidence of racism.

    2. I believe the protests during the day are mostly peaceful. But based on the totality of videos/commentary I've seen over months, it seems that after dark the streets are filled with people out to harrass/intimidate/burn/looted anyone not doing what they are doing. ESPECIALLY if you stand against what they are doing.

    Out of time, will have to get to propaganda later.

    1) I agree, and I have talked about how the justice system needs reform, top to bottom, several times.

    2) Yes, but what the Right clearly wants is an orgy of violence. I have no problem with a governor calling in the National Guard to police. But I would vehemently oppose Trump using a paramilitary force as provocateurs... Actually, if you have been watching closely, there have been a number of occasions, in recent months, where Trump has backed away from the crazy. I think that's from Republicans in Congress working quietly to repress his darker impulses.

    This has nothing to do with local police.
    The protests are happening nation wide.

    The issue of why there are protests happening nationwide needs to be addressed. Not ignored like the Corona virus thinking it will magically disappear.

    Which protesters in Kenosha were shot by police for looting?
    I do not stand for violence. It serves no purpose.

    The root cause of all the protests needs to be addressed. The issue will not magically disappear.
    A leader will attempt to address it. That is not happening.

    Of course.

    Big money Demoxrats won't continue financially supporting the riots if Biden wins.

    Same thing with the China Flu.

    The goal is to **** up so much ****, regardless of whether there's a legitimate reason, so that life is awful for your average American, and maybe THEN they'll want change.

    People were too happy having Trump head the country. Democrats need to throw things into chaos and then try and blame it on Trump for them to have a chance.

    So Kamala wants to defund the police and keep the rioting and looting going? Sad.

    So the YuTube so called "source" lied and claimed that Harris said "riots" but if one listens it clearly says protests.

    Conclusion : the source is a lie. But the source is not a human or a network or a member so there is nothing that can be done using our rules to to make the source stop lying.​

    Is there anything in our rules under thread creation that would prevent a false headline being posted?

    Nope. Rule 10 was removed unfortunately.

    Fake news is welcome. If it wasn’t what would our Republican friends post about?

    Trump's plan seems to be to let democracy work, and let Democrats burn down their cities.

    You mean our Trump fan friends. I am a registered Republican but of the Lincoln Project wing. Of course Trump fans accuse me of being a Democrat because I think for myself and never considered Trump to be a Republican.

    Yes, apologies. I will differentiate in the future.
    I shouldn’t even be calling them republicans to begin with as they have sold all of their party values to put a red cap on.

    A bit difficult to arrest someone when the cops are hiding inside armored vehicles.

    No need to apologize. What makes me sick is that Trump has ballooned our debt which my grandkids will be paying off when eventually interest rates will go into space like Space X rockets.
