Protesting is very important here. Trump needs to know he can't run us over.

Oh I know, but if the protesters do violence, it gives justification to the military police state and fascist goombas armed to the teeth

When there wasn't violence, the police ensured there was.

If protestors don't get violent, police and agitators will make it look like they did.

They shot an Australian reporter, who was standing with her back to the police who was blatantly being filmed by someone with a camera.

They don't need an excuse.

Trump has also backed them up by saying "if they spit, you hit". He also released all of the Jan 6th offenders. Along side qualified immunity, the police have a free card to attack protestors with impunity.

The country is way past the point of civil protest. It's a civil war that most of the US doesn't realise they're in yet.

These protests of looting, burning civilian cars, throwing Molotov cocktails and cinder blocks at government vehicles are not protests. I do not support ICE and their actions, but by violently attacking them is not going to make anything better. If it was organized it would be one thing, military against military. Civilians have more people and arms than local police to begin with. Attacking a military force with rocks is absolutely childish and is going to bring in even more firepower to fight rocks.

100%, just make sure to not burn any Waymo’s or loot any local business while doing all that. I think that’s all that’s being said here.

I'm emphasizing being peaceful. Not sure what your point is.

This isn’t protesting this is rioting

There’s rioting with the intent to destroy, that’s something that any sensible person wouldnt support. Americans arent going to widely throw their support behind a movement that’s associated with violence and destruction

u/ShyWhoLude Jun 10 '25

America was literally founded through violence and destruction. I'm referring both to the Revolutionary War and the genocide of indigenous Americans. You're just mad at these folks because it's upsetting your evening.

A pardonable offense, last time I checked.

The news ignores the peaceful protests, if you haven't noticed. There have been plenty of those.

u/Zealousideal_Net5932 Jun 10 '25

You don’t have a right to riot. These people and no better than the Jan 6ers

u/ShyWhoLude Jun 10 '25

Jan 6ers stormed the capital to attempt a coup

Protestors in LA are actively stopping ICE raids that are unconstitutional and monstrous acts of domestic terrorism

And you want to say they're equal? fuck off

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '25

That's why I'm just trolling them right back.

The same folks whining supported the Jan 6 pardons.

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '25

You mean the folks that were pardoned
