Wait... they had a "constitutional right" to vandalize and set fire to a church?  [/quote]

Nobody gassed on shot tonight to clear the way for the fat orange an,Ed empowers parade was vandalizing anything. Moron. [/quote]

Says the moron who can't even string a coherent sentence together.  [/quote]

DP. Now you're attacking someone for typos? You don't like that pp pointed out that none of the people gassed tonight were vandalizing anything.

At least pp isn't president. Here's your candidate trying to string a few sentences together in front of the church:

A reporter asked him if it was his Bible and he said, “It's a Bible. We have a great country,” he said. “That's my thoughts. Greatest country in the world."

"That's my thoughts"? Really? And why are you holding a Bible if you're not going to talk about it?[/quote]

Let’s get one thing straight. The Jews were gassed. The protesters [b]had some tear gas thrown their way [/b]so they would disperse after not listening to police when asked to disperse. The protesters will be back to beat and loot tonight. The gassed Jews will never come back.[/quote]

So, in your bizarre world, that makes it OK to gas peaceful protestors so Trump can have a photo op?

And, OMG, did you actually say "had some tear gas thrown their way"?[/quote]

Were they asked to leave prior? Yes or no[/quote]

Do you understand the first amendment? Yes or no.[/quote]

If they were asked to leave because the President was going to come through,and they actively refused to disperse after being asked multiple times, yes, they can be forced to leave. With tear gas. Furthermore, in a public park, they need a permit to assemble to protest. Did they have one? No.

[i]"When do you need a permit?  Protests of 25 people or more on the National Mall or other National Park Service operated spaces in DC require a permit (click here to see a listing of those spaces) require a permit, as does any event that requires streets to be closed.  The Metropolitan Police, because they lost an important court case, are required to allow permit-less marches in the street as long as they stay within a single lane. Demonstrations on public sidewalks are legally permissable without a permit so long as they don’t block the walkway and fewer than 100 people are expected. "[/i][/quote]

The optics are terrible. That's all that matters. Trump gassed people for one of the most inane photo ops in recent memory. Nobody cares about any of your nitpicking, it won't erase this disastrous image.[/quote]

So you now admit that they were gathering illegally and should have left when they were asked. They didn't, so the police had to use tear gas to force the issue.

The optics? I think the images and video of people being beaten near to death, and all the looting and graffiti far surpass what you are complaining about. But....TRUMP.... BAD ORANGE MAN[/quote]
I think you are a toddler in sore need of some sleep.

They weren’t gathering illegally at all - but Trump did just commit a war crime against his own fellow citizens.

You nut jobs keep harping on a few business owners allegedly being beaten, but you don’t care that George Floyd is dead, or that that follows on 400 years of inequality.

You’re worried about graffiti and looting when you don’t care what the GOP has done to the environment or how they’ve robbed the middle class and poor blind to give billionaires more money.

So I say again: go get a snack and go to bed. Hopefully you can wake up more mature in the morning.[/quote]

DP.
This is a totally idiotic post.

1.  If they did not have a permit, they were gathering illegally.  Sure, the police haven't been enforcing this.  Maybe that is why things have gotten so out of control in DC.
2.  A war crime?  You are f'ing kidding me.  This is why I pay little attention to some of you hysterical liberals.  You are hyperbolic and frankly, you lie. 
3.  A few business owners beaten - no biggie, right.  And, there is no "allegedly" about it.  There is plenty of video out there.  
4. What is happening in our cities has NOTHING to do with George Floyd's death.  These people don't care about George Floyd.  The reason we are not talking about George Floyd is because the cities are on fire and people are being beaten.  
5.  Your statement about the GOP is ludicrous.  What YOU don't seem to understand is that what you see happening in cities right now is a total destruction of places the poor and middle class go to get food and goods.  Replacing and repairing the public property that has been destroyed will cost money.  And, that means that funding going to these things won't be there for the people that need assistance.  Many of theses business owners - middle class people - have lost EVERYTHING. Save me your faux comments about your concern for the middle class.
6.  Hope YOU had a good nights sleep and can see the ridiculousness in your post.  Maybe it was alcohol talking.  [/quote]

DP. You are mentally stunted. Get help. Nothing you’ve mentioned justified gassing people for an inane photo op. Nothing he did helps with any of the problems you mention or is even related to them at all.

Trump poured gas on the flames, literally. Stop whining about protest permits already. [/quote]

Was there widespread rioting and looting last night in DC????[/quote]

WTF is wrong with you? Why does anything else happening—purple dinosaurs, something after he spoke—justify gassing people for a cheap photo op?[/quote]
