MI Gov Whitmer attacks militias
WZZM13 ^ | 5/2/2020 | WZZM13

Michigan Gov Whitmer (Democrat) says militias are not appropriate and paints them as racist.

"Yesterday's scene at the Capitol was disturbing, to be quite honest," Whitmer said at a news conference Friday in Lansing. "Swastikas and Confederate flags, nooses and automatic rifles do not reflect who we are as Michiganders."

Where were the swastikas? Likely used to illustrate a point about her, as opposed to the protesters themselves.

People who wear swastikas tend to dislike armed American patriots...

Even if there was ONE person using it in the wrong way out of hundreds, then the whole thing is HORRIFIC

but 99 out of 100 antifa and blm pieces of garbage are violent and that’s ok

Militias are in the constitution

what part of what antifa and blm are doing is??

I HATE those groups

i notice la raza isn’t at many of these things

but to be honest, the vast majority of PRs i know support this thing

The swastika were emblazoned on the automatic weapons.

To be honest, I did see one pic with a swastika on a protest sign.

Below the swastika, it said "Heil Whitmer".

I can see how Whitmer would be upset by that, too close to the truth...

That’s right. Hitler couldn’t afford to be honest, and Whitmer is just such a liar.

From the slut who wants to remove the pipe line running from Canada through the UP to the west. The result would be that the UP would be without LP gas. According to my friends up there.

That slut would do well to stay out of the UP. Her health would take a turn for the worse if she visited up there.

....”Swastikas and Confederate flags, nooses and automatic rifles.....” what is this dips**t talking about....? it is obvious she knows nothing about the difference between a semi-automatic weapon (e.g., the much defamed AR-15 type...) and a true automatic weapon (e.g., a military M-16, or an M-2 machine gun, etc.).... what a loser...and to think she was actually one of O’Biden’s first choices as his VP candidate...

The people you represent made their desires known, Whitmer. You can shoot the messenger, or you can get your act together and fulfill the will of the people. Choose. And be counted by your choice.
