How much violence are the American People willing to tolerate?

We'll find out if--in the very unlikely possibility--President Trump should not be re-elected--because, in such a horrifying scenario, America would descend into a chaos of hatred, violence, and anarchy unimaginable to the rational mind. Nazi Germany, Mao's China, and Stalin's USSR come immediately to mind.

usnews is carrying the story also:

https://www.usnews.com/news/best-states/florida/articles/2020-07-11/man-sets-fire-in-florida-church-after-plowing-van-inside

The man drove off, but was stopped by deputies nearby. He was being questioned and no charges had been filed early Saturday afternoon, authorities said. The man's name has not been released

What are the odds of "Muhammad" being in the name somewhere?

A man..........

Why no name? When a cracker does something stupid, they give his name and his race.

I'll bet his name is Muhammed Goathumper Mustafa. I'll just bet.

I checked Twitter, just to see if reported, or any info, there.

One person said it’s Antifa, and that they’ve been setting church fires.

I haven’t seen/heard anything reported (on Fox or OANN) about that. Has anyone, here heard that?

Another asked where FoxNexs, OANN, Tucker were, on this.

Other than St John’s, in DC...the one that POTUS walked to, the day or two after the idiots set it on fire.

Okay....here are the three church fires, since yesterday...

Ocala, Florida

No idea if they’re somehow related.

Sad, nonetheless.

The odds of this making the national news are close to zero. If it was a mosque, black church, or gay bar, it would be headline news nationwide.

I’ve driven by there many times. My daughter lives less than a mile away off 200 towards town (next to the college)...

The location of the Church is a suburban corridor with many retirement communities. The remainder of Ocala/Marion County is fairly suburban to rural not Antifa type friendly, but very supportive of all things USA, Constitution and 2A...not going to be taken lightly.
