Victor Davis Hanson predicts street violence will continue until 'we start indicting people'
2020-09-12
[FOX] The far-left demonstrations seen in U.S. cities this summer are part of a "cultural Maoist" movement that has the approval of Democratic officials, Hoover Institution Senior Fellow Victor Davis Hanson told "Tucker Carlson Tonight" Thursday.

Hanson explained to host Tucker Carlson that protesters and rioters are acting out their personal angst and agendas against the U.S. and have "redefined traditional Marxism" into identity politics.

"We saw it with Maxine Waters, who said, ’Get in their face at gas stations and follow them into department stores.’ We saw them when they kicked Sarah Sanders [out] from a restaurant," Hanson said. "We saw it when they swarmed the house of Mitch McConnell. And no one said anything because they were saying to us, 'This isn't a political revolution and this is a cultural Maoist revolution."

#10  /\ Some well aimed #6 from a 12 gauge, it would end fairly rapidly I suspect.

#9  I said at the very beginning that this would continue until someone started shooting the rioters and looters. Trump should authorize the Militia of the Whole to put down the riots, and provide clear rules of engagement that allow shoot-on-sight for anyone tossing a molotov cocktail, using force against non-rioters, or destruction of private or public property. If all the retired military gathered in one spot with weapons, that spot would soon not have any living rioters. This has gone on long enough.

#8  I'm quite sure we could pay Russia a small fee for their permanent housing in the Communist Utopia of their dreams: A gulag in Siberia.

#7  Indictments won't work in the age of Soros DAs. We are getting into the kinetic age, much as I hate to say.

#5  ^ this

Lawfare nullifying the 2016 result was a cover for the Deep State coup

BLM protests were a cover for urban insurrection

It's all sedition by other means

#4  Let's try the experiment and start by indicting the coup members for sedition, treason, obstruction of justice, destruction of records and evidence, etc. By ignoring these acts, a climate of acceptance of law-breaking has been created that has spawned Antifa/BLM violence and destruction.

#3  Maybe they can form their own, Antifa, gang in prison.

#2  Yes, a large new class of political prisoners, as they will undoubtedly see themselves, will do no good at all...

#1  Mere indictments aren't going to do the trick; these people need to be removed from society-- permanently.
