National Protest and 'disband the cops' discussion (and now ICE)

[Ranger Psych]

Reminds me of this video

Everyone bitches till you mouthbreathers can't figure out how to rub metal on rock right to make dully sharp.

Or we're bored at a range and now we're not bored because Mr. 3 knife profile broke said profile and now everyone can practice throwing knives.

Or you get to play space invaders in the hallway with a blowgun and privates.

Or...

One of our joes was doing knife tricks, and his final one ended up being how far he could get the knife stuck into his foot after screwing up the previous trick. This was an E-5, mind you.

Hahaha...stupid knows no rank. It inhabits all of them from E-1 to O-10. Yep...stupid is alive and well and thriving amongst the chaos....

Now THIS is how you do a knife trick. Gawd-damn I love Marines.

Had a Marine who got pissed with his laptop, tried stabbing it, somehow stabbed his hand and the blade went through the laptop shocking him at the same time. It was truly amazing.

Not a knife story, but I think I posted elsewhere on this site the x-ray of my 5th Group colleague who put a firing pin through the skin of his pinky when we were doing a pre-deployment training offsite...

Democrats hate cops until the big bad insurrectionests committed treason. Now, all of a sudden, the constitution/bill of rights matter. Off of a sudden, cops matter.

Fucking hypocrites.

 

[Brill]

Democrats ...

Fucking hypocrites.

They know but they don’t care. Conservatives need to stop boxing with gloves on and just use brass knuckles like the left.

Yeah, well, many Rs are just as bad as the left. Big government assholes. 99 percent of DC politicians are shills.

 

[Grunt]

They are all -- R's and D's -- indefensible in my opinion. At this point, I see them all as self-serving and nothing more. I can't defend any of them as they all act like kindergartners and make a lot of money doing it.

It's all fun and games when platoon brawls happen, until RP comes out in the hallway looking like a Tribal Shaman

BLM riots in 2020 were real and real people were affected. We cannot let this fall into a memory hole.

When the phone rang two days after George Floyd’s death, Oscar Lee Stewart Jr. told his mother he’d stopped on Lake Street to see the protests.
She expected the 30-year-old factory worker to come home later that night.
He never did.

For eight long weeks the family was left to wonder about his fate. They dialed area hospitals and county jails, begging officials to check its databases for him each day. They blanketed south Minneapolis with fliers of his face and combed local parks by foot. They scoured media footage hoping to catch a glimpse of him. Eventually, they tracked his car via GPS to behind a pawnshop. But it was empty.

For family of man killed in pawnshop fire during George Floyd unrest, grief wrapped in a mystery

The real insurrection was last Summer. It was fomented by the Biden Campaign. Kamala Harris literally had staffers post the bond fund on her campaign face book. You can't make this shit up. But hey, the left and big tech don't care because they make virtue signally seem like a real thing. When Police Violence? Well it's not really a thing. Otherwise I'd probably be hassled for protection money on canals I run and shit.

Man, the narrative shift here is pretty wild. The goalposts have been moved off of the field, past the next county, and right onto the highway.

It started with: “Actually, not that many MAGA folks participated in the capitol breakin”

Then it went to: “Actually the BLM riots were worse!””

Up to yesterday we were at: “It was really Antifa agitators”

Then, today, we’ve progressed to: “The REAL insurrection was the summer riots!”

Next week I think we’ll be at: “When you get down to it, the true revolution was the friends we made along the way.”

As an outsider, it's possible that all of those things can be true at the same time. Both sides are a mess and are responsible for all of it.

This. Very much this!

I don't need to dredge into my All things Politics Posts...but. None of this is mutually exclusive. At least one "majorish" left wing agitator was arrested as part of the Capitol riots, he actually got more than trespassing charges.

As far as point 1. There were a couple hundred thousand protestors at the Capitol, well under 1k, but a significant amount of bodies actually went into the Capitol. And this didn't happen because some dudes closed the doors. I'm sure that helps, but there were a couple hundred thousands people there.

And to your second to last point, it was and it was fomented my major leaders on the left. The butchers bill? 30-60 people (I guess it depends on how you choose to calculate responsibility) are dead because of left wing protests. Then add BILLLIONS in damage in just one city, the financial toll was insane and the only leader in this country that wanted to stop shit and put people behind bars was the POTUS. He's outgoing. We'll see how Prison Filler in Chief VP Harris does In Regards to That.

4 Days left!

That's a huge stretch from what was actually written however, I can understand the HOW such a wild conclusion could be reached. Using CNN, MSNBC, & NYTs guidelines, if a story isn’t true just lie about it being true.

ALL, EVERY SINGLE ONE of the ~73 million Trump supporters are deplorable white supremacist followers of a domestic terrorist cult. <- this is a complete lie and as much of a conspiracy theory as the Trump-Russia hoax.

1) Not everyone who was involved in the criminal activity that occurred in the Capitol building were in fact Trump supporters. FACT
2) Antifa agitators have been arrested among the group of Trump supporters who rioted inside the Capitol. FACT
3) The real insurrection was the summer riots. Debatable however I'm utterly shocked that a liberal would acknowledge such activity occurred.

Regardless of telling a falsehood or omitting key facts to support an opinion, the result is the same.
