It's not on both sides. It's your side. The rest of the nation is just trying to move on and live. We just have to deal with ignorant Trumptard traitors trying to destroy the country and create a civil war. That's the reality in December 2020.

As usual, the libs have no idea how to compare apples to apples. The lady in question is a sitting politician, an individual spewing some pretty bad chit.
Feel free to self censure the AZ pubs.

Because the looters and rioters don’t have the power to bring down an entire system of government. They are just a small group of pissed off anarchists and disaffected youth. They are no real threat to our Republic.
On the other hand, the organized and deliberate subversion of our democratic process in which the Republican Party is actively engaged amounts to sedition at best and quite possibly treason. I’m pretty much a centrist and vote for folks on both sides of the aisle, but after this I will never ever vote for a Republican again.

Well, first, you have a bunch of idiot Trumpers who stormed the capital building to cry and whine about masks and try to look tough with AR-15s.
Then a bunch of right-wing idiots plotted to kidnap the governor.
Then I guess this clown thought the smart way to deal with idiot Trumpers is to act like an idiot Trumper.
And isn't bengaline there?
So I guess Michigan needs some help.
Also, Jim Harbaugh.

and destroyed everything in their path. There was no property damage, and the only thing hurt was some politicians feelings.
Truth be told, it was probably more mixed than you think. Last tally I saw, over 3000 small businesses had closed for good in Michigan. I think people who mock those upset about that should really do some soul searching. I can't lie, there will be some schadenfreude once these lockdowns start impacting other sectors of our economy, particularly those in which many of the lockdown advocates work.

Anyone who shows up to a state house with an AR slung on his back to scream at police who don't have a say in the matter because he thinks that's going to solve the problem, well, I'm going to mock that person.
That also doesn't go far in getting the other side to listen to your complaints.

And they weren't screaming at the police, they were screaming at the people the police were protecting.
Why don't they get the benefit of the doubt BLM protests got, anyway?

Look, man, these people were idiots. I don't know why you're defending them, or the morons you mentioned the other day with the social media censorship. You're not on their level.
Maybe the other side isn't listening well, but they certainly don't listen when Bubba Donttreadonme shows up with an AR and screams at people. That person is a moron.
Anyway, can we just agree Michigan sucks and we're glad we don't live there?

and they've got legitimate grievances. I'm really not sure what else they were supposed to do, and I'm highly sympathetic to businesses that are being forced to go under. I work with a lot of people in Michigan, and they're mad. I also understand why they're mad, and it kind of irks me to see them reduced to just being whacko Trumpies.
Michigan does suck, and the one great thing about COVID is I have not had to visit Chicago or Detroit this year. Especially around now, when everything is just grey and really ######.

But that's also akin to lumping peaceful demonstrators back in May and June with the rioters and the looters (I'm not saying you did this; plenty of others did).
I understand their grievances, but for those who aren't whackjob Trumpers, they probably would have been better off leaving that crew and finding a new approach. Because those idiots drowned them out.

Sorry for derailing your thread T3Tiger, but one quick note
Dec 10, 2020, 3:18 PM

that I found interesting over the course of the riots. You could watch real time on the livestreams as the rioters infiltrated the protests. They'd start splintering off in groups to start fires, etc. It would go from a mass legit protests to pockets of 4-5 people causing chaos, all being directed from a shot caller at the back of the action. Before things kicked off, you'd often see those same shot callers giving out money to people. Of course, as the year went on they got wise to the live streamers exposing their gig, so they quit allowing them. Notice some of the signs at the Red House in Portland explicitly saying no streamers.
It's almost exactly what you saw in Kenosha with Rittenhouse, too. All of the people he shot were working in collaboration with each other. Same with that shooting in Denver. Pockets of 3-4 organized conspirators out there stirring #### up.
I personally think all of that was a lot better organized and funded than people want to believe.

being forced to go under and people who are losing their jobs due to the pandemic. I've mocked people for complaining about having to wear a mask as if it's some huge burden or fascist oppression, but I can't blame people who have lost their business or their job for being upset.

beliefs are pretty much in line with antifa and BLM, yet they don't get lumped in with them. If two organizations are working toward the same goal, aren't they pretty much on the same side?
It's kind of like legitimate nazis. They pretty much want the same system of government democratic socialists want, so it's fascinating to see them cast as being on different ends of the spectrum. Kind of seems like the only difference they have is who gets the political power.
