Gosh, I don’t know who to root for...

[Meatspace]

Sounds like a large exercise of the First and Second Amendments.

[mrmeyer]

The anti communists

[skams19]

Right wing militias? Do they mean Americans?

[Magnum44]

Yes, its a fancy way of saying ‘deplorable’.

[Da Coyote]

“Gosh, I don’t know who to root for...”

Yup, me too. ;-)

[sauropod]

Not a fan of “confederate states III%”.

That muddies and distorts the message and aligns us with people that are too easy to demonize.

[ifinnegan]

Losers trying to screw things up for everyone else.

Manipulated borderline personalities.

[Sasparilla]

...Groups of militia scrambled in the hours after the announcement to come up with a new plan, while counter demonstrators urged their people...

Yep, the armed defenders are “militia.”
Those wanting to destroy the monument & are armed are “counter demonstrators.”

[JusPasenThru]

I don’t care for the Stars and Bars. Never have. Never will.

There. I said it.

[GOPJ]

Commie hellhole builders, antifa thugs, BLM, human filth and their hidden financial backers WANT a confrontation before the election because their butt-boys in the press will use it against Trump.

[Eccl 10:2]

At one of these “standoffs” someone is going to fire the first bullet.

Then the chances of all hell breaking loose - everywhere - will go up a thousand fold.

[Roman_War_Criminal]

It’s already happened at multiple BLM/ANTIFA protests.

The body count rises every week.

“I don’t care for the Stars and Bars.”

I think they were wrong also. But if things like the statues are taken down, and the way the public education system distorts, or outright lies about things, can you trust our kids to get the proper education to learn from our history? If BLM is so interested in trying to make change, then talk to someone alive that can do something. Violence only lowers the intelligence of the situation.

In 1992, the largest two black gangs in America, the crips and the bloods in Los Angeles, got together during the Rodney King incident and proposed this to stop ther violence:

This is how things get started. Are their demands unreasonable? Many are. But some should have been done already and a dialog is being opened. Start the haggling.

First they came for the “Stars and Bars”.......

[I want the USA back]

Civil war by proxy.

[cymbeline]

“Gosh, I don’t know who to root for...”

Root for preserving the carvings.

[Eccl 10:2]

Mmmmm...not really when BOTH sides were well-armed and itching for it.

Agreed, though, things are escalating.

Wrestling matches? Bring on Jesse Ventura.
