Trump White House vows it won’t coddle ‘the rioter, the looter, or the violent disrupter’
WaPo ^ | 1/20/17 | Matt Zapotosky

On the campaign trail, Donald Trump cast himself as a law-and-order candidate who would always have the backs of local police, though he wouldn’t meddle in their affairs. On Friday, the White House website revealed that promise would be a pillar of his administration.

Under the heading, “Standing Up For Our Law Enforcement Community,” the Trump administration promised a reduction in violent crime, a border wall to keep out illegal immigrants and “more law enforcement, more community engagement, and more effective policing.” The administration hinted at a crackdown on protests — “Our job is not to make life more comfortable for the rioter, the looter, or the violent disrupter,” it said.

In arresting these terrorists they should interrogate them and find the funding and persons funding, we can guess but they need to be prosecuted to

Any of them arrested that were not born in the country should be sent to Gitmo as enemy combatants.

The fake-news MSM will respond to this by focusing on individual protestors who are injured or "mistreated" during riots and demonstrations.

They will select the most sympathetic ones: freshman and sophomore college students from elite colleges who are photogenic and talented, who had a high performance level in high school.

I would expect the selection process for students of this type has already begun, with Soros money offered as an inducement and reward. Exactly as Saddam Hussein used to do in Palestinian neighborhoods in Israel.

I hope they look into every police department that is under an Obama ‘consent decree’. I believe the rise in violent crime coincided with the police backing off criminals, so as not to get a phony indictment against themselves.

It won’t take much to get the snowflakes to spew. Just rack up the charges and the prison times, the loss of income, voting rights, no student loans, no grants, no bank accounts, no credit, etc. If they’re foreigners, throw them out.

How about arresting those who pimp technologies that kill protected species for profit and to battle 'climate change' too.. instead of giving them waivers to kill eagles?

Something ain't right about the Left and Greens. Why pretend there is.. Lock 'Em UP!!!!

All propaganda all the time - and I think most Americans still buy it.

I hope TT* realizes just how much of the domestic chaos over the past 8 years has been FUNDED BY GEORGE SOROS. TT needs to go after Soros. Arrest and prosecute him for aiding and abetting domestic terrorism.

Without funding, a lot of this organized rioting COMES TO A SCREECHING HALT. This is why they need to throw old man Soros in the clink, and SEIZE/FREEZE HIS ASSETS.

Hey TT, are you listening?!!!

*TT = Team Trump

Hardcore leftists consider rioting, looting, assaulting and anarchy to be valid forms of expression, protected by the First Amendment.

IMHO
