What is happening has a name: Civil insurrection.

Not yet. When federal authorities and the Philly PD get into a gunfight, then it's insurrection, which would give Trump the authority to invoke the Insurrection Act of 1807.

The “violent” part of the insurrection to my mind was fulfilled when the demonstrators were not polite and courteous to the police. I guess I’m a George Wallace and Spiro Agnew fan. I’m kidding.

You are still right, although a mysterious someone could arrange an agent to take part in a fist fight like the Antifa anti-Trump voter campaign speech ones “hit their women, it will make them start fighting back”—Antifa manual.

We are dealing with anarchists like in the 1870-1910 era, so someone could toss a fireworks at the police and that’s insurrection to me.

I think the mass fighting will be well under way before the Trump invocation of the 1807 act, but you are still right that it’s just a hairsbreadth away today.

Liberals win, we always lose.
Liberals ignore the law, conservatives go to prison if we fail to follow them.
It’s called playing by the rules.

I didn’t go to see the re-make of Death Wish. Was it any good? I usually hate re-makes of time-honored classics.
