Winning hearts and minds by attacking Rand Paul and his wife? The intolerance on display is quite staggering, this is fascism in action. Lucky the police haven't been totally defunded and were there to protect the couple from the leftist mob. I don't suppose this violence and intimidation will impress the average voter. Hope they find out who paid for this and take drastic action to stop this disgraceful behaviour.

We'll all see what the voters think about it come Nov 3. I can wait.

you should get your facts straight.... who's inciting people to fight, who stormed a peaceful demonstrations to get a photo in front of a church, who's for militias/paramilitary people, who's supporting NRA, who hates any women/female who challenges him, who's creating antagonism .... just to mention a few

Unmasked Protesters Push Past Police Into Idaho Lawmakers' Session

"In Boise, the first day of Idaho's special legislative session erupted into chaos before it began. Dozens of unmasked protesters, some of them armed, shoved their way past state troopers to pack the gallery overlooking the state's House of Representatives.

The clash was a manifestation of the anger and frustration from a vocal minority of far-right Idahoans that has been compounding over the last several months as the state has navigated its reopening amid the pandemic."

"Personal responsibility" Boy, there's a concept someone should run by Trump, if only to introduce him, but it will need to be someone other than Rand Paul who is certainly not familiar with it.

I am too lazy to type right now but the thing about him co-sponsoring laws against no knock warrants is hilarious. They were protesting the girl's death while attacking the guy that is sponsoring legislation to ban no knock warrants which is how she died. You can't make this up.

Just in case you forgot, it wasn't a "no knock" warrant that killed Breonna, it was incredibly inept cops who went to the wrong address and then busted into the wrong house and killed her. Just too, you know, remind you of what really happened.

This makes no sense. 
 

Verbal assault – this is a type of non-physical, oral assault that results in an emotional, mental, and/or psychological injury to the victim, rather than a physical bodily injury. - Ref: www.attorneys.com

 

It depends upon where one (or the court/judge) draws the line between obnoxiousness and verbal assault, doesn't it? If one feels threatened, I call that verbal assault that could (and often does) escalate to physical assault. Read about the various types of assault HERE (www.attorneys.com}.

Really? Desperate huh? So now think "free speech" which gives the people the right to tell their leaders what they think.

Verbal assault? :cheesy: That's so pathetic and hysterically insane.

You are supposed to need tough people to run a country, not a bunch of girls blouses, who collapse and moan at the first sign of an unhappy customer.

How about real assault, where people take guns to threaten legitimate protesters. Don't have a problem with that huh?

Sure you will be singing a different tune first time a republican gets shot by a loony on the left.

No problem though. Your posts give the majority here a damn good laugh.

The Democrats are standing in his way.  Maybe not for long as their polling numbers are being affected and they have to adjust their strategy (values).

How exactly are they standing in his way? Trump claims the authority to send in forces wherever he pleases. If this is the dire situation that he claims it is what's stopping him?

You know when the national debt began to zoom up? Under Ronald Reagan. He promised his big fat tax cuts would pay for themselves by stimulating the economy. How did that work out? Let me give you a hint: big budget deficits followed. Then Bill Clinton, the irresponsible Democrat, came along and raised taxes on the wealthy. Republicans claimed those higher taxes would sabotage the economy. Instead the economy performed very well. By the end of Clinton's 2nd term the budget was balanced. Then came George W. Bush and, like Reagan, Bush slashed taxes on the wealthy. He promised his tax cuts would pay for themselves by stimulating the economy. Instead budget deficits zoomed upwards. George Bush did leave Obama the worst recession since the Great Depression.  When Donald Trump came into office deficits were rapidly declining and the economy was motoring along. What did Trump do? Like Reagan and Bush, he slashed taxes on the rich and promised that the cuts would pay for them themselves by stimulating the economy. Instead deficits zoomed upwards again. Republicans have consistently lied about how tax cuts would pay for themselves and not result in increasing deficits. How many times do they have to lie before you finally face reality?

As if ... plays well with the base that has a number of folks who favor authoritarian rule. Peace and order Trumps individual freedom ... the government model may gain support. Look to China for the model of social control.

Thank you for the video, which was very good. I'm sorry, but I saw a very rational person logically discussing points and highlighting that minority people will quite obviously never stop demanding the equality, that they are in theory, already legally entitled to. To a fair minded person, this would seem reasonable, so I am confused why you think such a sentiment is erroneous or disagreeable.

Anyone who thinks after all, that those minorities will stop, or should stop asking for equality, has to have a questionable understanding of the constitution and allegiance as I understand it.

"I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

It's that "all" bit I think they are after, which seems enshrined in their very being. How can you deny them this and still try to call yourself a patriot?

if you are unable to understand the basic tenet of this post, that they are asking for what they legally have already to actually become a reality, but have waited an eternity for without seeing it actually coming,  I feel sorry for you.

guess hell have to wait until he gets home for his neighbor to beat the carp out of him again

You seem to be fine with and defending no-knock warrants in attempt to keep the fire on the police, but removing no-knock warrants takes that tool away from the cops and ensures it never happens again. 
 

It’s literally removing police power and restoring rights to people. 
 

That no-knock warrant was why it escalated to the point it did. 
 

Without no-knock warrants - the police would be forced to announce themselves before busting in, so even if they did go to the wrong house, it’s a lot less likely it would escalate. 
 

Seems you’re the only one having difficult understanding anything.

Please illuminate us on all the policy and bills the current admin has introduced to alleviate the situation(s) and how the Dems are blocking the Pres and the Senate. Otherwise keep your lies to yourself.

Thank you for your response. I'm for equality for everyone not  just some! It is my opinion that these protesters  aren't reasonable about how they go about trying to achive their goal

And it doesn't mean it did not either.  Just like on Willie Wonka and the Chocolate factory only the 5 kids were spoken to by Arthur Slugworth, who really wasn't Slugworth.  Oh who to believe, just get the stupid election <deleted> done and over with and move on as a country.  Just destroying it from within the borders without any help from outside, both parties and all the hatred over what?  yes, lining someone's pockets like the Democrats before this now President who went into office poor but came out rich.

What we know about Obama is that he earned his money from his salary as president and from book sales for a book written before he was president. He put all his money into treasury bonds. He vigorously supported the Fed when they lowered the interest on bonds to virtually 0 percent. We know this because Barack Obama didn't hide his tax returns.

Donald Trump on the other hand, has kept control of his businesses and has refused to release his tax returns.

What? You would really rather try to insult me and make a fool of yourself on this forum rather than simply follow the link I provided in my comment?

 

So you think it requires a gun to constitute a "real assault" as you put it? Many people have seriously injured or killed by being "sucker punched" and any number of non-firearm-related assaults such as knifings, baseball bat beatings, you name it. You should be aware by now that these so-called protests carry with them violent antifa and anarchists that have been known to attack and injure and kill. Rand Paul was not safe and he was smart enough to realize this and seek police protection. Jeesh!

 

The 17 yo, Kyle Rittenhouse, in Kenosha, WI (yes, another link) killed with his rifle an assaulter who was using a skateboard as a weapon. This is well-video-documented, recent attack. The advice has been "Don't take a skateboard to a rifle fight". Kyle also killed another and shot an assaulter in the bicep who was about to shoot him with a semi-automatic pistol. Kyle will probably get off pleading self-defense.

 

 

 

Again, follow the link and read all the various types of assaults.

In my opinion they are not paid by anyone But why not then be paid by Trump's friends, so he can add another layer?

Not mentioning he was carrying an illegal weapon, after curfew or that the appropriate authorities have deemed it fair to charge him with extremely serious charges though are you? Skateboard against someone pointing a rifle at you and you want to think the poor SOB didn't at least try to fight for his life, and when he did, hold that against him?

And you call me a fool? Always nice of course, to see those with a sad argument stooping to attack the poster, rather than having the cognitive powers to address a sound logical argument.

Keep on sucking in those juicy theories from the twisted minds that seem to dominate right wing fallacies these days and you can keep writing rubbish for eternity.

Please try and post something intelligent once though, eh? Might need to turn off the smoke alarms in the house first though.

So, that's how it happened, is it? Hmmm...

 

"Gitting, in an interview with CNN published Friday, said she watched her 26-year-old boyfriend run toward the gunman, armed only with a skateboard, in the moments after he shot Rosenbaum.

Rosenbaum, who was unarmed, was the first to attempt to take Rittenhouse’s AR-15, prompting the gunman to fire off four shots. In a phone call placed immediately after, he said he “just killed somebody” and took off running, according to a criminal complaint."

She left out the part where he hit the boy on the ground with his skate board. A 17-year-old boy hand a bunch of thugs their A$$$.

Moral of the story is (DON’T TAKE A SKATE BOARD TO A GUNFIGHT)

May I add. YOU ARE NOT IN KANSAS, on wait, PORTLAND any more DORTHY or KAREN!
