I actually didn’t think much about this until a moment ago when I read then saw Barr’s press conference. Two take always. His order to clear a block or two coincidentally was timed perfectly with Trumps desire for a photo op but had nothing to do with it. He didn’t even know about it even while he was walking with him and in the pictures. That’s believable and puts that to rest.

Secondly if someone armed wearing all black (or brown I suppose) with no markings, and no ID refuses to identify themselves you need to do what they say rather than protect yourself. Remember that. It’s understandable why they may not want to be identified. Just do what they say. They are right and accountability is over rated. As long as they think they are right your opinion matters not. Don’t pull your own gun out and defend yourself, or even protest their actions.

Think about that. The first lie and the rationalization of the latter.

Would we accept this if we agreed with the cause of the protest or just because we don’t?

This group of all people is ok with unmarked non identified armed figures policing us.... or maybe them. I’m pretty sure they wouldn’t be ok with them policing us.

did she run...or jog?

I’m completely ok with you and Victor being terrified of these armed figures policing you without having enough identification for your liking because it was this morning’s talking point and meme. You should be very terrified of it. You should walk up to them and demand identification.

I suppose if you were actually there you could make a pretty safe assumption of who they were based on the fact that they were standing on the side of the protest boundary where all the police were.

Sounds like HD would be completely nonplussed to have armed, unidentified people tell him where to go and what to do.

I'm guessing that's because he's a sheep.

Keep up tail. Unless your tragic lockdown was enforced physically by militarized groups of masked people without any identifying marks or badges, you're really making a dumb association.

LOL!
The worlds strongest economy gets systematically destroyed by the over reach and fear mongering of our government at every level, and all you're worried about are a few ouchies from the big meanies.

Those "protesters" had a choice to move out of the way.

I don't have the choice to not be shut down.

If you can't see that then you are the pure embodiment of why our society is going to crash and burn.

Plus you're a feeble minded gimp waiting for his next rogering from his local state house. Not entirely related, but accurate and more than a bit humorous if you ask me.

Carry on.

I am a bit winded.

Fuxk... I didn't even stay home. Strangely enough I did not get teargassed or detained by unidentified "officials"

it is part of our social contract...

we agree on a set of laws....we need someone to enforce them and keep the peace

we give up some of our individual power over enforcing the laws and entrust that to you,

and we give you more protection from blame than the average citizen if you do something wrong

as long as you exercise that power fairly, openly and consistently and within the bounds of reasonableness


as for hiding one's identity while "enforcing the law", in 1968 the Chicago PD had several of its officers remove their name tags and badges while they abusively kicked demonstrators' azzes at the DNC...many states now require police to wear distinctive uniforms, identifying insignias, nameplates, and carry identification which they must show when requested while on duty

In truth, I don't care about the protesters themselves.
It's the government governing by narrative that irks me.
And your media who embrace it.

So

He was still out protesting for “them” If that helps you.

Those cops need to go if that’s ok and what they want to be acceptable. It’s what others say doesn’t exist. It’s a culture.

Taking walks was allowed and encouraged. Did you open a non-essential business? They all got cited.

We laid off 43 million people. We didn’t tell them they could not go for a walk.

My neighbor’s biker buddy got cited for being out for a ride in the mountains a bit too far from home. He was in the neighboring county.

Well if you would quit whining and work on using opportunity you could get a few of them back to work. You really are selfish.

Yup, I figure I'm done for in about 5 days. It was nice to know you. But maybe, just maybe I only had the Wuhan flu. In any event you are not forgotten in my will. I bequeathed you my antique pitchfork collection.

on the record, tail never pays when we go out to dinner

within minutes of meeting him, you'd be under the influence of his disarming boyish smile and realize how often (not always) he is smiling when he posts.

But you don't have TDS.

I believe the term is "Chew and screw".

Sounds like Selltickbomber.

I hear they are all hanging around the Alamo waiting for an ANTIFA.attack expected by right wing conspiracy theorists.

Take a look at what is happening in NJ and PA. Thousands upon thousands of $500 citations. Some NJ businesses have had their buildings and assets seized by Murphy. A gym local to my sister decided to defy Murphy's edict and open. The day he reopened, he noticed a Public Works crew behind his building. Within 15 minutes, raw sewage was gushing from his toliets. He and all his customers where fined $500 each. A couple days later the state seized his building and assets. My sister's gym decided to reopen this week. The police set up cameras in his parking lot. Once a customer left the parking lot, the police would pull them over and issue them a $500 citation. He was told to shut down or the state would seize his property. He had no choice but to comply. A little old lady neighbor of a friend on mine in PA, had cabin fever and decided to go for a drive. She was pulled over and asked why she was on the road (your papers please). When she told the officer that she just had to get out of the house and go for a drive, she received a $500 citation. This is happening across the country in mainly blue states, but since the media mob is ignoring it, it's not actually happening, is it?

David

I don't think so, but then I don't know what he looks like. I did find it interesting that the 2nd Amendment guy, on the left, is depicted with the so called, "Non-Player Character" face.

Ya know Gene... the types of media you keep coming across tells me your circle seems to overlap a lot with 4chan/8chan (aka white supremacists and incels).

Let's take a look at what we have here....
On the right is "Doomer" Doomer is a variant of Wojak intended to indicate despair or nihilism over the end of the world. Doomer comes straight from 4chan. Wojak itself was originated elsewhere, but is very popular in 4chan/8chan and is frequently paired with pepe the frog (pepe the frog has been co-opted by white supremacists and incels)

On the left is "Soy Boy" or "nu-male" Wojak. Just given the name, I'm assuming you are smart enough to realize it's also something that originated with the incels/white supremacists.... (but what do I know... maybe you aren't smart enough to pick that up).

So... you posted another image with origins in the white supremacists/incels groups.

What's funnier about the entire thing is that the image argues that the 2nd amendment protesters aren't actually that concerned about government overstep. They're only concerned about the government overstep when it's something important to them... like haircuts. If it's people of a political alignment which might fight against their guns later, they're willing to watch personal rights disappear to a government with little accountability.

Real conviction there.... real conviction.

That would be a great take.

If the argument of a significant portion of the 2nd amendment people wasn't "I need guns because I need to be able to stop a government from overstepping it's bounds". Hell, I think I remember dumb memes about "I need the 2nd amendment to protect your 1st" or something like that.

If the 2nd amendment idiots hadn't just used a much better argument for having guns "Hey, they make tiny explosions and are fun!"... then there would be no reason for the "lefty" to question why they aren't present.

Even more amusing, is I have not seen a single "lefty" demand that the 2nd amendment people protect them from the government. I've seen some question WHY the government overstep is totes ok with them now. But not a single "lefty" that I've seen has wanted armed idiots in the middle of the protest. Of course the cartoon would make no sense if they didn't create that strawman.

But you haven't addressed the real question. Why do you seem to end up with so many memes that come straight out of the white supremacist/incel groups?
