I keep seeing references to the Boston Tea Party. What were the "rioters" protesting when they destroyed the tea? A tax on tea. What does Target have to do with police brutality? 

What did the Boston Tea Party ultimately lead to? War. Is that what the current protesters want? 

This isn’t difficult.

People want across-the-board equality.   So it shouldn't be difficult understand why protesters are mainly millennials. This is America’s 1st true multicultural generation and the starting point of a future America that will be racially and culturally flipped upside down.  I think many in the US are frightened of this.    

That said, although their demands are clear, their methods of protest are aimless. This is akin to a neglected kid throwing a temper tantrum after people routinely dismiss his cry for help.  It's rooted in frustration.  But that's basically the black experience in the US, not being listened to.            

This mass protest isn't some calculated means to an end, it's a symptom of a disease. As MLK said, “Rioting is the language of the unheard”.

Rioting needs to stop, I do not disagree.  But going in too heavy is not the answer.

I know Trump spoke with Putin today, but he needs to understand we’re not Russia.  Sending police/military forces to ‘crush’ civilians isn’t what we do. That's not us.   In fact that's the antithesis of traditional Republican values.  So much so that if Trump isn't careful he's gonna inflame militant elements of his own party - against him.  Timothy McVeigh types whose #1 fear is just what Trump is advocating.  Those guys are another set of lunatics this country doesn’t need involved in things.

Bull$#@!

So are you implying that all protesters support -antifa or are you just letting the board know what the son supports?

I am not saying you are , just asking.

I think there are people disappointed with both parties that are not extremists or anarchists.

They just want issues dealt with,  without all the political grandstanding.and posturing.

[SiouxBoys]

Would like to remind everybody that this is an election year. If you think that's just a coincidence, then you're an idiot.

Just renounce your citizenship of the United States and move to China, North Korea, Cuba, or Venezuela. You know, where everyone is across-the-board “equal.”

I'd classify you as "weak" as would someone else as well.

Now police officers are being targeted. 4 shot in St. Louis last night, one in Vegas (on life support) and 2 in VA. 2 more injured in Buffalo when a SUV plowed into them. Another run over in the Bronx.

But you and UNDGrad06 can continue walking around the streets of your communities passing out hugs.

I wouldn’t advise that, Oxbow6...we’re still in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic and waiting for that second surge.

Street Fair in Fargo cancelled but no issues with an estimated 5000 "protesting" downtown Saturday.

He is trying to show the whole family of the wife beater is in support of ANTIFA and they are not keeping it secret.....

This why NYC is a mess. Mayor is a big problem.

Watching those videos it’s hard for me to believe he didn’t see the protesters. I don’t know how much harm he intended or whether he just figured I’m in a big truck they’ll move. Thankfully the protesters reacted quickly and most people got out of the way. Of course they weren’t coming to shake his hand. These protesters almost lost their life because of a careless idiot, that truck drivers lucky those protesters stayed peaceful and he’ll get jail to me instead of being dead.

Do you know how long it takes to stop a semi traveling at highway speeds?  The amended reports indicated he was on the highway legally and closing time was moved up to 5pm on short notice. I’m not sure how someone was supposed to know there were people massing on the interstate. He reportedly hit the horn and slowed down to 30 mph by the time he got to the crowd. He didn’t hit anyone and unless he states otherwise, nothing in the video indicated he was trying to injure anyone. You have no idea of what “he figured” nor his intentions. Let the authorities sort it out before we judge.

Agreed. He did an excellent job of alerting with his horn while slowing down without losing control. If he would’ve panicked and pulled his emergency brake there could have been hundreds injured or dead.

That’s just crazy talk.  What kind a society would we have if that was the standard.

I know you're saying this sarcastically, but this is a legit concern for those in the medical community.  I would not at all be surprised if we see a noticeable spike in 1-2 weeks.

Yay..........I think that's on the minds of all of those upstanding citizens in your city looting and rioting. If a spike happens is it  considered collateral damage???

So I give my position on one very specific situation on how to potentially not escalate the matter, thus keeping everyone (police, protester, and President) as safe as possible in that situation, and I am now giving out hugs in my community?  Nowhere have I given my position one the protests, the violence that has sprung up around the protests, or the incident that has led to the current events.

It seems as if nuance is not only dead, but it has been beaten to death by jumps in logic and painting with broad strokes.

Well... Cops are bad, whitey is bad, so yes I think you hit the nail on the head with the painting with broad strokes comments.

Trump Derangement Syndrome is real.

Really? You think there was any sincerity in Trumps visit? I wonder if Trump has ever even opened a bible in his life.
That was a poorly planned and executed photo-op, and nothing else. You seriously think Trump is a spiritual human being?

So what Christian values does Trump espouse? Narcissism, greed, pathological lying, anger, fraud, pettiness (should I go on)? 
Are these the teachings of Jesus? Banging porn stars behind your wifes back, then trying to pay them off to be quiet, is that what 
the church is promoting these days? And if Trump was a Dem I would be just as disgusted, so don't call me a liberal fag.

But go ahead all you people who think poor Donny is treated soooo unfairly, drink that kool-aid. I'm sure you find it delicious.

I think his question/statement is still valid regardless of why one thinks Trump was there.

So you are in agreement with the Reverend of that church that, photos in front of a church are worse than killing cops, destroying businesses, rioting and looting?
