The only thing that threatens my safety is Prosecuting Attorney’s that don’t understand that I have a right to self defense.

And the Antifa “Red Legs” look like they have carte blanche from the Deep Police State to engage in violence at will.

Stay armed my friend. It appears the communists are going to try to take over the country while the population is still armed. Thank you NRA.

I agree with you. Nothing ever intervenes to stop it. Our country is being unlawfully torn down.

There is no rule of law anymore. People in DC violate the law with zero consequences so I guess anyone can do the same as long as they are a leftard.

If you are white and southern, you are racists.
The second civil war has begun with the attack on southern history
and statues and monuments.

You’ve got that right. Only the left is allowed to be outraged.

Not that conservatives would be inclined to do such things anyway. We believe in personal freedoms. You want to put a poster of Caesar Chavez in your front yard, go ahead and do it. It’s your front yard. I simply won’t look at it.

But should a conservative put a poster of Trump (or worse, one of Gen. Lee) in his front yard...all hell breaks loose.

The loser cops who stood around and did nothing should be fired.

Same goes for the useless cops at the San Jose Trump rally who did nothing while Trump supporters were attacked, and the cops in Charlottesville.

I had hoped, with the election of Trump, that these lawless acts would be dealt with swiftly and severely and ultimately subside. I’m losing hope.

I learned the hard way to keep my mouth shut when out and about in suburban Boston while there for work related training.

No, I don’t have an Americanized Scot-Irish accent.

The time for that attitude is quickly coming to a close. It is obvious conservatives are not going to be ALLOWED to prevail against the organized left, therefore the only place to prevail is where and when they are disorganized.

If any statue in America needs pulling down, it is that one.

I thought you might be kidding there, so I looked it up. By golly, you weren’t kidding. There is such a statue. Wikipedia has an article on it. The statue is located at an intersection. But it’s not clear if it is on public property or not.

The Wikipedia article:

Story went up, charges are going to be filed.

Hurray, what kind of country would we be living in if charges were not.

Prosecute the hell out of ‘em.

Too little, too late. Cops stood down and let this happen. This is just a way to appease some. These folks have really been empowered now. Given a green light to proceed now.

They even marched on the streets, with the police providing escort after the crime.
