Rioters once again throwing bricks and metal pipes at horses.

Don't worry though, Solkern, I'm sure they were aiming for the officers which somehow makes it all better.

FTFY

Don't care that you sent me anything to be honest. I just find it amusing that people like you pretend to be something you are not and chastise those who hurt your feelings as if you are above the fray.

You're not. Stop pretending you are.



So, in summary.. "I don't sealion, but when I do sealion I don't want you to call me out on it!"

Jesus.. wait your turn. Right now time4dum has her title match for the retard belt against Seran. You can take the winner.

None of you have hurt my feelings for the record. You have no effect on my personal feelings or well being, and I am definitely not trying to pretend to be anything I'm not. I know who I am and where I want to go, and what you say or do has no bearing on that. I made a mistake by lowering my own standards and I owned up to it, and now I'm doing what I can to do better and maintain civility, no matter how difficult it may be at times.

You're welcome to call me out on whatever you like, and not once did I ask you not to. Just because you say something though, doesn't make it true. I maintain that none of my posts in the last couple of days would amount to sealioning, and your response certainly didn't do anything to change my mind.

While this was a fun distraction for a couple of days, you folks have fun tearing each other apart, I'm going to bow out and choose to focus my energies on something more productive. And this goes to all of you who can't keep it civil, on both "sides": If you ever want even the slightest chance of reaching the people you're talking to, you can't continue to call them names and alienate them. You're only going to drive things farther apart, and while you're side is "winning" that distance is great, but nothing stays the same forever and you may not like where things end up in the long run. You'll have much better results if you really do try to maintain some common courtesy and respect. Neither far left or far right will get us where we need to be. There is value in some of the opinions on both sides of the fence, and we should work on combining the best of them. Spend this time and effort trying to find solutions instead of just complaining about what the other side is doing.

I also wouldn't think that a reporter would plant canisters and make that up

Before the shootings that took place at Kent state, reporters were helping protesters set the ROTC building fires.

Photo of pickup about 4 miles from my house, at park parking lot. Blacked out windows everywhere but the front, no plates. This photo was snapped by a friend of a friend who lives in Powderhorn, one of the neighborhoods that was closer to the riots than me. Other friend of friend found 2 full gas cans behind his garage.

Do you have any actual evidence for this statement? I fact checked it, and I see no evidence for this claim.

Good call. You are definitely way too reasonable for this folder.

It's pretty common knowledge. I have heard it from several different sources that were at the protests. I literally hung out with old hippies for half my life, it's why I know when a leftist is pulling bullshit, I know the playbook.

A man has been arrested and charged with federal crimes of making interstate threats after he attended a BLM riot with a semi automatic rifle and said he was there to kill “MAGA people.”

Tell me again these protests aren’t political and it’s not a bunch a left wing nut cases causing the problems.

In other news LA is cutting 10% from the police department’s budget, because the first thing you should do when your city is burning to the ground from out of control rioters is to cut the police budget.

So no, you don't.

so he made threats after he attended a rally, what happened to freedom of speech?
