"We need leaders who are willing and ready to link arms with these cops and physically take part in cleaning up this mess and defying the mob."

No, let those affected stay affected for awhile longer so they reap what they voted in as their leaders. Then we ride in and restore law & order. Timing is important.

They are sitting at home, watching the destruction of America on TV, while collecting a 174,000 salary.

In a few month, they’ll be loudly campaigning, “Vote for me!” (even though I am a worthless pile of ....).

I’ve seen 3 marches in brooklyn, been threatened and I’m going back.

I have reasons to be there and we can’t show fear.

They need to know some of us don’t care about their movement and aren’t afraid of them.

But if you see a fat white guy on a stretcher on the news in brooklyn cursing in Italian, that’s me :)

That’s the thing we’re lacking: leaders. Or even one leader.

Trump blusters and tweets but doesn’t do anything. I was encouraged by his protection of veterans monuments, but that’s really too little, too late.

He’s got to get a grip on this chaos and he’s got to end the lockdown. That is, end the federal declaration of emergency that has empowered these governors. It’s clearly not an emergency, if it ever was.

Cases? Yes, people who have antibodies and didn’t even know they had had the disease whenever they had it (which could have been months ago). People dying...virtually none at all, the ICUs are empty, hospitals are begging for patients...some “emergency”! End it.

I agree completely! This is one time I want conservative leaders to sit on their hands and keep their mouths shut. Let that whirlwind be reaped and, when it is, let the cavalry come to the rescue.

“Timing is important.”

Yes it is. This should have been shut down on Day One.

Cops are openly asking us to back them up. The communists actually staged an ambush on cops today in Tampa. I say it’s high time we start turning up at some of these
events. It’s not hard to find out where they will be— just mark & monitor the antifa & other flash mob twitter feeds, listen to police scanners, get a large group organized in your area— don’t go alone. But dont announce to the world who *you* are.

Democrats are always down with the struggle.

Republicans are always looking for an angle.

I’ll gladly back them up ... if and when they stop enforcing all gun control laws.

I agree; this Wuhan Flu wasn’t any MORE of a crisis than any regular flu season.

That said, I think President Trump is handling it correctly. ‘We The People’ are not USED to being guided by the Constitution and a State’s Right to Eff it up totally and completely. And boy, the Blue States have - in spades!

We’ve been programmed toward the Feds managing everything from the top, down. The LESS Government in my FACE 24/7, the better. But, that’s just me. My ‘Little Inner Libertarian’ has been screaming at the top of her lungs for MONTHS, now. Not even CHOCOLATE is shutting her up, LOL!

I think in this Election Year, this will be to our benefit, showing the error of the Dems and their ham-handed handling of this Plan-Demic. I’ll take the win. What is our alternative? *SHUDDER*

i’m sure most conservatives are thinking something like this

spineless cowards

we’d still be a phucking colony today if the founding fathers were led by these cucks

Everyone of the destroyed statues has been photographed many times from many angles. I'm certain that there are also plenty of records detailing the composition of each.

Maybe some conservative patron of the arts could hire sculptors to recreate all of the statues that have been destroyed and place them in a great hall somewhere where people who still care about history can continue to view them.

Trump, Cotton and Cruz are the only ones speaking up.

"I have reasons to be there"

Do not get in between a New Yorker and his Slice.
