Yes I am. It doesn’t ”matter”. Just curious.

Yeah, he has likely been screwing people over using inferior materials and pocketing the difference for years . He totally seems the type. Probably had someone else build his house too.I bet Bob lives in a more upscale neighborhood....
Certainly many of the reasons for actions are questionable, at best.
Read my above post about the Annapolis grad accompanied by video and consider the following.
This is a section from an early article by a Portland station...(the entire article is available HERE )
-
"I just happened to be wearing black on a sidewalk in downtown Portland at the time," Pettibone said. "And that apparently is grounds for detaining me."
Biden isn’t going to win.If this and the attack on the NAVY veteran don't open people's eyes, nothing will. This is SHAMEFUL ! Just one more example of what Trump is willing to do, if he is elected again. (ie Private police) It's starting to remind me of the people recruited for Selma Alabama.
I also assume the posters who defend this shit will be ok with Biden doing the same in the south to clean up the white supremacists groups after he is elected. If so, . . maybe we should force them to go back to the countries which THEY came from and the rest of us will be better off. (They sure aren't Native Americans ! )
blocking access to a federal building is a what????
Biden isn’t going to win.
I thought the optics of the beating the Navy vet took were bad and his injuries are certainly bad. I will also say that this guy started yelling at cops and put himself in harms way by showing up in the middle of the riot zone and “trying to ‘reason’” with officers being attacked by a mob at that very instant. Probably not the brightest thing to be doing at that time and in that place.
Should he have gotten injured? No. Is what happened entirely the fault of the officers? No. He is culpable too.
I think by now the protesting has made changes and its points have been made. Many people are getting tired of this going on everyday blocking streets and hampering businesses. Hasn’t it gone on long enough and time to return to some normalcy? I have no issues with peaceful protesting. The peaceful protesting has now turned to destruction and violence. If this protesting continues with violence and lawlessness, Trump just might win this election.(Biden) Keep telling yourself that ! - The ONLY hope he has is for his Russian buddies to rig the election. There is NO WAY the school re-openings will go well and the economy will continue to slow. I can't think the storm troopers will help his cause either.
That said, I give you credit for at least recognizing an illegal and unprovoked beating.
One question though: HOW is he culpable? Don't we , as Americans, have a right to peaceful protests? If we start justifying beatings of the innocent based on a few, then all hell will break out soon. I am starting to think that is the aim of the storm troopers (i.e. incite a riot, for political reasons
I am too , sounds like we have quite a diverse crew with coolers and chairs all ready !Bob, still waiting on your address for the camp out/peaceful protest.
Bob, still waiting on your address for the camp out/peaceful protest.
Bring your plastic army out then TommyThis is one of the dumbest exchanges on here I've ever read.
I'm sure Bob is absolutely crushed by all this.
So government officers are “Storm Troopers”? The people inciting riots are the rioters (should I say, anarchists).(Biden) Keep telling yourself that ! - The ONLY hope he has is for his Russian buddies to rig the election.

So the alternative is 60 more people shot and in body bags this weekend? Chicago is an absolute $hit$how right now. You honestly think sending federal officers in there will make it worse?According to reports I have read about Portland, protests were definitely slowing down. Sending Federal Troops has given the protesters a new wind. Not sure what Trump’s goal is with this. Does he want to create a true rebellion? Chaos? Does he want to appear as the “law and order”
candidate? I consider it madness to send Federal Troops to Chicago as absolutely nothing can come of it except disasters.. Unlike Portland Chicago has guns in the hands of lots of citizens with and without carry licenses.
if you had a business there you'd be singing another tune. just another nobody scortched earther with no skin in the game.Lemme translate from trumpism to English all of these comments.
"I'm ok with tyranny as long as it's against people I don't like"

You think federal agents are going to stop any of those murders? How are they going to do that when they are protecting federal property? Or are you saying that isn't or shouldn't be their mission?So the alternative is 60 more people shot and in body bags this weekend? Chicago is an absolute $hit$how right now.

oh ya you're a William Tell. they will sing songs about you.Or I actually am a patriot and believe in the constitution and don't lick the boots like you all do.
oh ya you're a William Tell. they will sing songs about you.
Sick reference bro! That one cuts deep.oh ya you're a William Tell. they will sing songs about you.
you had to google it didn't you? lol sadSick reference bro! That one cuts deep.
In Chicago federal officers can protect federal property AND get killers off the streets. The lunatic mayor is too yellow to even attempt to stop the carnage. The Police Union is begging for help and to be allowed to do their jobs.You think federal agents are going to stop any of those murders? How are they going to do that when they are protecting federal property? Or are you saying that isn't or shouldn't be their mission?
Alright.Bob, still waiting on your address for the camp out/peaceful protest.
Tell me how they can legally go in and arrest people that are not protesting near or damaging federal property. Are they just gonna march into gang country and start arresting people? Cause I hate to tell you but they aren't going to round up all the killers in Grant Park or downtown.In Chicago federal officers can protect federal property AND get killers off the streets. The lunatic mayor is too yellow to even attempt to stop the carnage. The Police Union is begging for help and to be allowed to do their jobs.
Bob seems triggered! What do you actually build bob?Alright.
I haven't read anything about protestors blocking driveways in Portland. I'm sure it's happened but not sure why you are so obsessed with it.
If I owned a business downtown in downtown Portland I wouldn't be happy.........and the protests are just downtown, contrary to what some here are saying. Portland has been a city of protests for decades with active right and left wing groups going at each other. The city has taken the approach, agree or disagree, that letting the protests die out on their own is the best method.
It was working until Trump sent in his federal agents, now it's blowing up again. I'm not a genius........so explain to me how sending federal "police" in.........that create more violence.......will help with protestors WHO ARE PROTESTING POLICE VIOLENCE? How the hell does that help anything? It doesn't and it wasn't intended to. It's meant to make trump look like a tough guy and.......he thinks.......help him win an election. Trump isn't doing a damn thing for the people of Portland, he's making it worse for his own benefit.
If the city or state asked them to come or the feds coordinated their activities with the local authorities, that would make sense. That didn't happen. The government all you people tell we need guns to protect ourselves from are proving you right........lol.......and you idiots won't or can't recognize it.
All that probably went over your head so let me speak in terms you can understand. I won't be replying to you anymore.......I'm terrified that some off the scum might rub off. You, the person who enjoys "The screaming from the people wondering why they're getting a baton across the head" are not deserving of the acknowledgment a simple reply might give you. I hope someday you understand what a vile, disgusting person that statement shows you to be, whether in this life or the next. I don't think it fits with WWJD, so you might want to give it some thought.
You and Trump think the same way. Force and violence is the answer to most problems.......whether you're whacking your kid over a tantrum or he's using his troops to clear Lafayette Square by force, it's all the same mindset. It makes you feel better about yourself. You have to win, and win through force and violence........because there's no self esteem inside you that would allow you to use another approach. Talking and negotiation shows weakness........and it doesn't allow you to claim victory and the glory. I don't understand how people like you are wired and want nothing to do with your type.......even on a message board.
You and your mental adolescents can have your fun at my expense, you just expose your inadequacies even more. You think you're a smart guy......I'm sure you can figure out who I am and where I live. C'mon down to NC and park in front the driveway and we'll take it from there.
The next time you here from me will be if Joe beats the reformed masked man.........and it will be relentless.
