Originally posted by Cow Poke View PostI just hate that the liberal media and government morons fuel the fire by their cowardly statements like - well, we totally understand why they would act that way - gosh, they've been oppressed for 400 years, so you have to give them space....
A) It's like you're assuming that these people aren't smart enough to be appealed to
2) They're encouraging some who might not otherwise cross the line.
Also - no-one has been oppressed for 400 years - unless they're pretty much immortal....>>> Witty remark or snarky quote of another poster goes here <<<...

Originally posted by Thoughtful Monk View PostThis afternoon, there was a peaceful protest in my city. About 2 hours ago, the burning cars and looting began. It's going to be a long night here.
Police say they are going to release where the arrested people came from. I will be interested to see how many are local versus out of town."For I desire mercy, not sacrifice, and acknowledgment of God rather than burnt offerings." Hosea 6:6

Originally posted by Leonhard View PostAs long as the peaceful protesters rights are protected, I will support the police in reigning in those committing acts of violence. I will not at all be okay with the presence of violent rioters being used as an excuse to shut down a moral protest.
