"Does anyone believe there will be less violence in America if Donald Trump is reelected?"



https://www.cnn.com/2020/08/31/politics/donald-trump-joe-biden-election-2020-race-violence/index.html


In other words - elect Joe Biden or my guys will continue to burn down your cities

In other words?  No translation needed.  The premise of the speech was pretty fucking clear.  Trump is encouraging the violence.  Which he is, both explicitly via twitter, and by not condemning it when its perpetrated in his name.

And love the Biden saying "my guys."  Like, don't you see all those violent protesters out there wearing BIDEN shirts?  No?...

A proud Trump rally goer kills two people, but lets just lump any "rioters" into Biden't camp.

Asshole.

Were temp checks ever implemented in the US?

I haven't seen them anywhere.

You don't see them in NYC because you still aren't allowed indoors in most public places.  However, to get into a hospital you need one.

In Upstate NY its far more common, kids camp, hair dresser, etc.  Though yesterday I went to a museum not far from the city and wasn't checked.

If this guy was black......


https://www.foxnews.com/us/california-police-shoot-kill-armed-man-trying-burn-down-home-wheelchair-bound-woman-inside

Right, because all those BLM folks are up in arms about men getting killed when they point rifles at police officers.  Just like retreating into a car full of your kids, or laying down on the street with a knee on your neck.

Did I say asshole?  I meant racist asshole.

yeah...

2-1 the past days

And like I said - just the beginning.

Masses of combatants will continue to battle, more heavily armed each day in Democrat-run cities.

Riding the Alpe d'Huez is a bit of a challenge in a mask.

The Tour actually seems to be taking extraordinary precautions, short of holding it in an indoor track facility NBA bubble style.  I'm impressed that they have dispensed with the tradition of having fans waiting by waste areas to pick up discarded bidons as souvenirs.  This doesn't protect riders, but the people along the course. 

In the US there was a period when group rides were totally canceled, even though we could have worn a mask and kept six feet away from each other.  Then when group rides started back up, it was with masks on which as I said kind of sucked.  Now its no mask on the bike, but it goes back on at rest stops, and everyone keeps a good distance.

If Trump's followers/cultists continue to truck in to "Democrat-run" cities to start violence while being egged-on by their dear leader, then yeah, those are the cities where that violence will occur.

And your 2-1 scoring is sick, but then, we already knew you were an asshole.

Well, you posted the 2 - without accounting for the one

That's your wet dream, Kid, we know.

But the folks coming into the cities armed for battle, caravans of them?

You have no objections to those.

And as for trucking into cities -

about 65% of riot/looting arrests made in Kenosha are from out of towners.

It isn't a fucking game, asshole.

And you know what led to all three of those deaths?  Trump agitating for race-based violence because he thinks that is part of the key to his winning in 2020.  So put all three of them under his scorecard, if keeping score is what floats your boat.

I'd ask where you got the statistic, but you won't back it up, likely because you already know its bullshit.

WASHINGTON (AP) — A federal appeals court in Washington on Monday declined to order the dismissal of the Michael Flynn prosecution, permitting a judge to scrutinize the Justice Department's request to dismiss its case against the President Donald Trump's former national security adviser.

A separate appeals court decided that they really don't like the idea of being called on to enforce Congressional subpoenas of former executive branch staff, so they said no a second time, after the whole appeals court refuted their prior decision and sent it back to them.

This will go again to the full appeals bank, which will re-correct the 3 judge panel who are unclear on what their jobs are. These folks would likely rule that SCOTUS oversteps when it interprets constitutionality of laws, too.
