Used to talk about civil war years back. Hard to believe but, here we are. God help us. One side desperately wants destruction. The other wants peace and order. November will decide how fast it all moves forward. I will not apologize, nor back down from believing in Americanism. Nor for believing in God and inalienable rights coming from the Creator and Sovereign of the universe. Even so, come, Lord Jesus. If that makes me a radical, so be it.

@Ray_Frigon both sides are escalating tensions pretty significantly. To blame just one side for it is silly IMO

One side has started the upheavals, with no data to back up their mob mentality but, plenty of money behind them, and Democrat endorsements. The other side is being forced into defending themselves, their property, their businesses, their neighborhoods. How then, is this a two-sided event for blame? Name the Conservatives demonstrating and destroying property at will in the last 12 years. "Blame" is subjective. Objectively, only one side is seen tearing down America. @Demosthenes

@Ray_Frigon using the police and federal agents to suppress peaceful protests in Washington DC was an escalation. To have the president threaten to not concede the election if he loses is an escalation. To publicly question the legitimacy of the election is an escalation.

The protests started in response to police brutality, and they continue because the issues have not been addressed.

@Demosthenes Perhaps, get more of your news from other sources than MSNBC?

@Ray_Frigon find me video evidence of violence from lafayette park on june 1 2020 directly before the flashbangs, and I will concede your point. There are dozens of videos of that day.

Their constitutional rights were stomped on, full stop.

Btw msnbc is just as manipulated as Fox News. They're both fake news!

I seem to have lost a reply post. I repeat. The church was damaged by rioting before Trump went there. S.S. admitted to using pepper spray on people in the crowds gathered with an obvious attitude of threat to POTUS and anybody else opposed to their "peaceful protests." "Peaceful" is a pretty loose term these days.
