Troops line up outside the fenced-in White House as protesters begin to arrive in D.C. for George Floyd march that is set to attract one million people

The nation's capital braced itself with members of the National Guard guarding famous landmarks and patrolling a new pedestrian-only demonstration area as streets were closed off.

The White House remained a fortress, with black fences between seven and nine feet high erected around its perimeter cutting off protesters, as D.C.'s mayor formally renamed the street outside 'Black Lives Matter Plaza'.

Streets were shut in downtown from 6am as the first of the dozens of demonstrations organized for the day began and the city's metro system announced it was reopening cars closed due to coronavirus to boost rider capacity.

Does the counting of the “protestors” have an X-factor to increase their number to the predicted 1 million even if 200K show up?

“What kind of a moron brings a baby to a riot?”

The same kind of moron who has no problem aborting a child. We’ve established what they are, now all that’s left is working out the timeline.

What a difference between these demonstrations and the ones that are protesting abortion, gun rights, civil and religious liberties.

This, too, shall pass.

Well I’m taking as many with me as I can if they come for us.

But you are right about praying. It’s never a good time to hate. Even in combat it’s not good to hate. It blinds your judgment and clouds it.

Plus it’s a painful emotion. At least to me. Better to be clear minded if we have to fight them.

How did it come to all this? We won.

I guess elections are only supposed to have consequences when the left wins

How about burn both the national gallery and the Smithsonian.

So they could travel to Washington?

I missed that Minneapolis let them all out. Really?

"Just hope they target the right people."

Certainly anyone clearly identifiable as a member of the msm should be at the top of the priority list... Always target the enemies who are doing most damage to the Nation...

He could come out, join hands, sing “Imagine,” announce $15 trillion of reparations, and say all the prisons were permanently closing...and they would STILL hate him.

Hard to tell what that is on top. I was looking at the Raytheon site a couple days ago and I couldn’t find the active denial system anywhere.

Not a single constructive, actionable proposal or recommendation in their list other than “tear it all down.” That’s been the commie mantra for 100 years.

There was a heartbreaking video of a dad taking his 3 or 4 year old daughter out of a children’s hospital in Texas today. The mob terrified the little girl. It was sickening.

Could be but the 10th Mountain Division is at the White House and they put in higher fences. Roads are blocked for blocks away. Deep state is after Trump and the White HOuse.

Hi.

I never had to suit up to prevent rioters, but had to suit up to fight a fire in KY. (Ft. Knox Radcliff AO).

Good hunting out that way.

Pray for our troops.
