It's odd there weren't reports of riots, looting, and violence Saturday night

It's almost as if someone issued a stand-down order to agitators and provocateurs.

Probably just a Tactical Withdrawal and Consolidation while they consider their next advance.

“I know those grid coordinates are my position! We’ve got zips inside the wire and if you don’t bring that shit in close, there won’t be anymore “my position!”

The democrats got the poll that showed they were losing, not gaining, black support.

I think it used to be called organizing for America but since America is ‘evil’ now, they changed it...

Rioters who burn down buildings - there’s video from nearby buildings stored in the cloud, records of cars passing through tolled areas, traffic cameras and forensic evidence. Once law enforcement starts paying attention and cracking down, rioters are on borrowed time.

They can also match it up with cell phone records and social media posts. The looters that have been caught so far in our town have been hit with bails from $10K to $100K on state charges. The one with the $100K bail is being held out of state by the feds for inciting a riot via social media. He faces 5 years and $250K fine for that. I think once the word starts getting around people will contemplate if it is worth committing criminal acts.

The fines best be high because some of those organizers make $225,000 a year.

Most of the local thugs can’t afford to post bail and pay attorneys.

We put up a camera on our house after our cars were vandalized, and all of the new constructions going up in our town have built-in multi-camera systems.

They’re expensive homes ($1.5 mil+).

Yeah, maybe these optics weren't looking too good.

Some of the 17 people killed in the riots. Some black lives matter more than others. That and the living ones on TV talking about losing everything.

My theory is that after a week of shocking the public psyche with unthinkable violence and mayhem, the plan is to stop for a period to give people a sense of relief. I think this is intended to manipulate the public into supporting “the cause”, like victims of Stockholm syndrome. Especially because we’ve been fed this false narrative of the “peaceful protesters” and the “violent outsiders”, these pauses may be intended to build sympathy for the “protesters” whose cause, don’t you know, has just been falsely tarnished by these violent strangers that “have nothing to do with them.”

If my theory is right, I would expect to see repeating cycles of mayhem, followed by relative calm.

Maybe there were threats to release the murderer hornets if the “protesters” transitioned into rioting, looting, thugs. What are they protesting now? Aren’t the killer cops going to face the music? Are they going to protest until there is not a drop of racism left in the world? Good luck. Humans always have been and always will be human....some very good, some very bad, and most in between.

It started to diminish as soon as you saw video clips all over the internet showing white nitwits burning down buildings in black neighborhoods.

This could be part of Trump’s winning strategy in November: Calling out white governors and mayors for refusing to protect their black citizens from white leftist interlopers.

It rained fairly heavily in some places last night and more storms are on the way today, so I think that helped.

Also, I think they have quietly been arresting some of the leaders, who certainly are liable for federal charges. They deputized a Florida NG regiment in DC as US marshals last night, which gives them arrest powers, so they will be able to do what the local police forces wouldn’t be allowed to do. Also, in this situation the arrestees won’t be turned loose again three hours later, as is happening in most Dem cities.

40% black support for Trump got somebody’s attention.

I figured we might get a first real public look here in the US at use of the Active Denial System.
