State police? National Guard? Or is this just another no-go zone left to fester locally?

With all due respect, any law enforcement will be criticized and then the officers will be up for indictments and prosecution by hostile DAs and sent to vengeful anti-cop juries for the Chauvin treatment.

"When you grabbed the black man about to throw the burning Molotov cocktail at his ex girlfriend, how did you know he wasn't about to start a block party barbecue with the flame?"

I know you would like justice to be served but it doesn't work when the Left runs it all.

“A massive sideshow marred by gunfire”?
The gunfire was the main event.

If this is true, then why am I not seeing this kind of chaos in the southeast?

wherever there is at least 1 black there is a strong likelihood of some sort of chaos or violence. Minneapolis, St. Paul, and Stillwater all canceled the 4th of July celebrations giving as their excuse that it wasn’t in their budget, the real reason is that they knew that there would be an eruption of violence and chaos by their pets.

This was obviously a dispute over the nature of the protagonist/antagonist relationships in Herman Melville's Moby Dick. Is it Ishmael (the narrator) the protagonist? Is the whale itself the antagonist? It can be argued that Ahab is the antagonist, as he is willing to sacrifice everything - the ship and the crew - in order to achieve his revenge on the whale, Moby Dick.

Naturally, violence was the only resort.

Not to be talked about. (Just some celebrants letting off steam.)

The important thing is to get Trump’s tax returns and then prosecute him so that he can never run for office again.

What is a “Sideshow”? I don’t think we have those around here, certainly not in my neighborhood.

“Oakland has been known as the anus of the Bay Area for at least sixty years.”

I was stationed at NAS Alameda in 69’ and went to Oakland to see a movie. I was standing out front when three Hell’s Angels pulled up and said ‘you need to leave now, it’s not safe for you here’. They waited with me till the bus came.

More or less. What's different about what is actually being done in Portland? Is there any effort to re-civilize Portland going on?

In terms of retrieving gear, it probably costs about as much or more to load a used, tired Humvee onto a transport plane (which in no small way would be vulnerable to shoot-down during the loading) as to buy a new one. Nothing that a $15 thermite charge atop the engine wouldn't fix in about 45 seconds. Or shoot the block w/a .50 BMG.

Maybe, we should give Oakland the Afghanistan treatment.

You mean: Declare victory and then withdraw?

“This is a warm summer,” It’s ALWAYS a warm summer in the Deep South but we usually just turn on the air conditioning as opposed to shooting each other. Have they been able to determine whether it was racism or white supremacy that caused this?

The Alameda County Fair in Pleasanton used to have a wonderful July 4th celebration until the BART station opened and gangs from Oakland and Richmond started to show up.

The first year after the BART station opened ended with gunfire at the midway rides, and the fair closed at 6:00pm on all Independence Days since then.
