 File under: Antifa 

#1 I understand that, because of CV19, the prices of recreational drugs went way up.

#3 Was Harris smoking a doobie as well?

#4 1...hmmmm.

2. Isn't big city living wonderful?

3. Point of Order. While under state authority, the National Guard is not subject to Posse Comitatus, only federal uniform personnel are.

#5 ^At least he's wearing a mask - his melanin enriched comrades appear to be unaware that CV19 is racissss.

#6 Minnesota's Lt Gov & "community leaders": Violence was caused by White Supremacists!

I'm guessing Antifa is more like it. Those boys that I saw on TV in La Mesa didn't look like KKK to me. I saw a lot of masks but no hoods.

#7 Cute blond reporter from CBS8 got a whiff of tear gas in La Mesa. She tried to get to where the action was but it was too hairy.

#8 CV-19 crisis losing airspeed and altitude. Some additional hype and doom was needed for the media in the lead up to Nov.

#9 Trump just got re-elected.

Looks like Minnesota for sure and possibly some other deep blue states are now in play for November. No way that those suburban moms who the Dems thought were a lock are going to vote for the party of mayhem. This Democrat gets it:

Mike Erlandson, a former chairman of the Minnesota Democratic-Farmer Labor Party, said he watched with his 15-year-old daughter in Minnesota this week as a man spray-painted on a wall, “F--k the white people from the suburbs.”

“I do think that, particularly if this continues, the [congressional] districts like Dean Phillips’ district or Angie Craig’s district that right now I would say are relatively safe for the Democratic incumbent, could be very much in play,” he said.Both of those districts will be decided in large part by suburban women voters, and it would be hard for me to imagine those people aren’t watching this scared, like everybody else, for their family and for their children.”

#10 Independent autopsy and medial determination please. Meds, drugs, heart, CV-19 breathing issues, pre-existing conditions ?

(No intent to excuse or dismiss the actions of the policeman who improperly detained Floyd)

#11 This is most certainly Antifa at work. No way that this particular incident could trigger simultaneous violent actions in dozens of US cities. George Floyd wasn't a national figure like Martin Luther King. He was a local figure whose death would normally have set off local unrest.

Only a national organization capable of spontaneous coordination across state lines could have organized violent action in Oakland NYC Atlanta LA Detroit Denver DC San Jose Indianapolis Dallas La Mesa

#12 And a dash of media hype and distortion.

#13 they spared the Waffle House

A bit of good news.

#14 Why would anyone in San Jose riot over this? 60% of the population is Asian or Latino; only 2% is black and they aren't concentrated anywhere. There is no history at all of police brutality vs blacks.

Ditto for Columbus Ohio, Denver, La Mesa etc.

Also, why would Dallas suddenly be seeing mass violence? Dallas doesn't have bad relations between their police and the black population.

How is it possible that these vastly different cities, across the US, suddenly are convulsed with the same degree, type and duration of mass violence -- unless it was coordinated nationally?

#15 /\ ...unless it was coordinated nationally?

Yikes! Conspiracy theorist, fails to believe in coincidences.

#17 know how they have a sex offender database and a sex offender has to speak to all their neighbors when they move to a new place (at least according to Big Lebowski). I'd be happy to have every looter/rioter added to a White Supremisct group database and have them have to explain to any new neighbors for the rest of their lives.

That might even be better than having them serve time.

#18 They are rioting in places where they know from past experience that the politicians go easy on rioters.

#19 San Jose State university was being watched by CA State Patrol this whole time? Why? A significant number of their students are of the ethnic backgrounds that support the PLO or Hamas.
Think about that.

#20 "Not the Waffle House," several protesters cried, with others shouting, "No, no."

You just can't buy brand loyalty like that. Even the Nike factory store in downtown Portland was trashed.

#24 I've said all along that the constant pressure for violence from the national media would lead to bloodshed. I didn't quite expect this, but it doesn't surprise me. And I also wouldn't be surprised to find China's and Soros' fingerprints all over it.

The next time they set up to block a highway, give them five minutes to disperse, then set up a MA-deuce and take them out. So far, these idiots have never paid a price for their bad behavior. That needs to end. If it does, so will the bad behavior. This kind of crap is what happens when children are never taught limits.

#25 I wouldn't be surprised if Soros suddenly passed due to some 'accidental' mix of his medicines.
