How to stop them hasn't changed, either.
In the 1770s, London was a riotous place. The city had always been a center of liberal opinion, and thousands of residents belonged to radical groups. Apprentices were notorious for their rowdy behavior, and secret societies that questioned authority abounded. From anarchists to levelers to members of fanatical religious orders, radicals engaged in everything from street attacks on the rich to arson to espionage on the part of foreign powers.
During the Gordon riots of June 1780, tens of thousands of left-wing protesters marched on the House of Parliament; attacked Catholic churches, businesses, and homes; and threatened the Bank of England.

Anarchists, then and now, cannot imagine the improvement of living standards that has taken place or is to come. They revel in destruction because they do not see the good that exists or that is to come. For them, the good will not come. They will spend years, if not a lifetime, seeking to destroy the means of productivity they believe to be evil.
Unfortunately, most of our progressive leaders in government share this faithless perspective. They aren't willing to acknowledge that capitalism has produced such wealth, or that wealth has "trickled down" to workers.

So what remains? More burning and looting until Seattle and Portland are burned to the ground?
One lesson of history is that, unless met by force, rioting and looting will grow and spread. It is naïve to think anarchists will simply pack up and go home once they've had their say.
Another lesson of history is that ordinary citizens must be protected from anarchists.

The radicals in leftist governments are unlikely to use force to stop riots. The DOJ “civil Rights Division” is likely to step in if conservative governments put down riots in their own jurisdictions. I predict that rioters will soon have free reign. Any civilian group trying to stop riots better make it look like an accident and not be around for the SJW Police to persecute for self defense like they are doing to Kyle Rittenhouse. To stop the riots will take accidents, lots of accidents. It won’t happen in leftist cities and they will burn.
The American experiment is the first time in human history that ordinary citizens have the "Right to keep and bare arms" is protected by the founding documents.
That is why, history has no lessons for what is about to happen.
IF, the average armed citizen, decides to protect themselves and it becomes a real movement, America will be saved.
If they voluntarily, because of demonRAT passed laws, decide to turn in their weapons, it is over.
The American experiment will prove that man is an animal with no belief in neither moral values, nor God, and karl marx and the communists were right.
SAD.

People who have tried have been raked over the legal coals, blasted as “white supremacists”, etc. With that said, I believe we should keep it up. More Americans need to completely put these rioters down. At this point they are just nihilists. They just want to break things. They need to be stopped. The cops aren’t going to do it. The people absolutely need to stand up. If a neighborhood viciously took out a riot it would soon stop nationwide. No quarter to those losers.
If you live out in the boonies the only rioters you need to worry about are bear or moose riots....
Problem solved.
.Gov is like any other horrible problem or person—the best and first choice is to stay as far away from them as possible.
(The perfect is the enemy of the good—so each mile further away from a Democratic controlled jurisdiction is a good mile.)
Well said...and once done with the cities, it will be time for them to start moving out to the ‘nice areas’ and ‘educating’ the white people about racism.
The media is helping the anarchists with NEWSSPEAK like white supremacy to cover for the domestic terrorists BLM and alike so they can burn loot and murder.
They always promote anti America values and rewrite history chaos is a group of many not just one communism goes by many names.
Water cannons. Lots and lots of water cannons.
Just watched Jordan Peterson and he made an excellent point as usual. What he said is that its much easier to make things worse than it is to make things better. Tread carefully my friends.
