Peaceful protests don't require concrete barriers.

[Huskrrrr]

So much irony, where to begin?

[butlerweave]

Stalag 17 ?

[Libloather]

Walls work? How about that.

[Maskot]

So they’re saying walls work? 🤔

[ealgeone]

Wait....walls and fences don’t stop people!

[caww]

Charged with arson....he won't walk away from that...

[oldasrocks]

So who can speak to he rioters and convince them that Nancy P has racist evidence in her freezer along with all that ice cream. Ladders will be provided to get over her 12 ft wall.

Bu...but, what happened to the Summer of Love^TM

Thug could be facing up to 20 years in prison in the event he’s convicted. Arson...and at a Federal building won’t be slipped under the carpet.

Everyplace and where they go looks like ‘the hood’ when they’re done.

Disgraceful mob of vermin!

Peaceful protests don't require concrete barriers.

And real live cops don't hide in buildings. That's what department issue Glock 17s are for.

Kayleigh should include lots of stories like this in next conference and ask MSM questions.

Mending Wall by Robert Frost

(last section)

He only says, ‘Good fences make good neighbors.’
Spring is the mischief in me, and I wonder
If I could put a notion in his head:
‘Why do they make good neighbors? Isn’t it
Where there are cows? But here there are no cows.
Before I built a wall I’d ask to know
What I was walling in or walling out,
And to whom I was like to give offense.
Something there is that doesn’t love a wall,
That wants it down.’ ....

I see him there
Bringing a stone grasped firmly by the top
In each hand, like an old-stone savage armed.
He moves in darkness as it seems to me,
Not of woods only and the shade of trees.

He will not go behind his father’s saying,
And he likes having thought of it so well
He says again, ‘Good fences make good neighbors.’

////////////////
I noticed many of the rioters have gathered stones together (Ecclesiastes) and as Frost said are “like an old stone savage armed” they throw the big rocks at the heads and bodies of the police.

Building a fortress means you have decided not to go out and attack the enemy. The enemy should be fleeing and hiding from you. If they show up at your house each night, you are not frightening them enough.

Aren’t walls bad?
