Bin Laden Killer SEAL Rob O'Neill's Take on Rioters: 'I Can't Believe I Fought to Protect You'
2020-05-31
[PJ] The nation watched with disgust Friday night as rioters took to the streets of Minneapolis, Washington, DC, Atlanta, Los Angeles as well as the usual suspects in Oakland and Portland over the killing of George Floyd while in police custody. Nothing says grief-stricken like boosting some free s*it and burning buildings. Watching with the rest of the nation was Rob O’Neill, the retired Navy SEAL who helped send Osama bin Laden to paradise to collect his 72 raisins (not a typo).

And O’Neill was disgusted along with most of the rest of America.

O’Neill’s Twitter time-line that started last evening and lasted until Saturday morning was a Rorschach test for the country. If you agreed with what he was saying you too were wondering what looting had to do with redeeming the death and honoring the memory of George Floyd.

Friday evening O’Neill noted what many people did across America. Where were the liberal scolds demanding rioters keep socially distanced?

#7  The protestors want better cops. After watching how the politicians and rioters threat the police do you think you will be getting better applicants tomorrow?

Yes.

#5  A small minority, but with outsized influence and backing from our most powerful institutions.

The aristocrats of the Middle Ages only made up a tiny percentage of the populace, but there's no doubting the power they had.

History shows that an organized, committed and competent minority will trump a diffuse, uncertain, feckless majority every time.

#4  We need to keep in mind that the rioters and looters are a small minority. No matter how much the media hyped up and focuses exclusively on them and the mayors allow them to pillage and burn.

#3  I've often wondered what would happen if all the young men thinking of joining or re-upping took a long, sober look at what they'd actually be defending.

Is tranny-grooming-party/riot/immivasion/Deep State America really worth it?

#2  ^ Agreed, and I'm uncomfortable with the idea of Celebrity Commandos. The relatives and neighbors who raised me included a fair sprinkling of Marines who had served in the Pacific, and I couldn't get a word out of them.

#1  I never had much use for O'Neill, but he's right about this one.
