He's from Antioch Illinois. It's about the same distance from Kenosha as Vancouver is from Surrey.

Right before he was attacked with what looks like Molotov cocktails.
As the adage goes, play with fire get burned.

we'll see how the court rules once they've collected the actual evidence, then we'll revisit this conversation.

Yeah I'm sure this guy was trying to make a Citizens Arrest!!
Second video, maroon shirt. He then took his shirt off to cover his face and charged the kid with the rifle.



Definitely one of the dumbest statements Manic has ever made. What an absolute clown LOL.

At least little Joseph died doing what he loved... chasing minors.

I was using the same logic you use. Now does a criminal have a right to self defence?

What I learned in this thread! Your resource are not reliable (throws insult), but mine is! Betting as in gambling solves disputes when both the right and left jam their ideology down each other's throats! Deflection, going from riots on the streets then to school shooting!(Among others)! Oh yeah, did I mention insults too! This thread reminds me of a dog chasing it's own tail! The thread was good early on, now it's just a run around for each others agenda!

^ What other method is there but to provide documentation supporting your views? Unfortunately there’s nobody that’s ever going to be in power to say “Hey guys this is what actually happened” so I’m not sure what you’re looking for in any discussion of any matter tbh. People have their view and they’re going to purport them.

Btw I think the 280zx gets a bad rap, best Transformers ever Prowl/Bluestreak/Smokescreen... but everyone rips them in favour of the 240/260 haha

rand paul the doctor/senator who came to Canada for surgery because no doctor in the US was good enough for him. I wonder if he paid for his room at trump hotel or did the tax payers pay for it.

Because he's a Trump aligned RNC Senator, and the protesters were also shouting the name Breonna Taylor at him, an EMT who was shot dead in his state of Kentucky after police raided her apartment using a no-knock warrant.

He has also spoken up in support of the police, along with towing the same party line we've seen Trump et all expound.

Read more about him, he's truly a piece of garbage, even his own neighbor beat him up a year or so ago

This was clearly a photo op. He knows what he was doing, he could've easily taken a vehicle from the White House speech. He walked the street to create a reaction, which was clearly going to happen. Then he runs over to Fox News crying that he and his wife "could've been killed". Please, for guys who love to use the term snow flake, they are the epitome of just of that.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...NC-speech.html

I must say though, this whole Kyle thing, along with these armed militia that are turning up to "protect" property, and create engagements with protesters is quite concerning. What especially is concerning is watching the police thank the militiamen, throw them water, and otherwise aligning themselves with them.

This creates an extremely dangerous precedent. It tells these right-wing militia guys that hey "We as the police support you", "We will protect you". I surmise you will see more of these guys showing up to protests, feeling emboldened. The police literally let that Kyle kid walk right by them, to which he returned home after shooting 3 people. What kind of statement does that make to the public of where the police loyalty lies? If anything that gives more credence to what we've been saying here.

Mark my words, this is how a civil war starts. We will see more right-wing militia show up to these rallies, when bullets begin flying, you will have retaliation, which begins a circle of violence that may not stop. If Trump was a serious president, he'd realize how dangerous this situation is becoming, and attempt to calm the fire, but instead, he continues to throw gasoline on the flames. I'm telling you, this will not end well. More and more people are arming themselves at an unprecedented levels on both sides. This is serious stuff here.

The same Rand Paul who wrote the Justice for Breonna Taylor act, regarding police accountability and putting an end to use no-knock raids?

Just saw that too I was like hmm

And its not the only time he's called for police reform

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...NC-speech.html

Looks like everyone leaving the event were accosted, guess the white house wanted that to happen, as it doesn't seem like there was a plan in getting ppl out or security for them

It's mind blowing for me to see so many parallels of what happened in Hong Kong last year to what's going on now in the US. First with the tear gas, attacking peaceful protesters, and now this.

It was her fault that she was raped. She shouldn’t have worn that short dress. She shouldn’t have been walking home alone at night. She was practically asking for it. When she put her cup down she should have known someone would have drugged her so it’s her fault.

The people who are trying to physically assault/ kill aren’t the problem. No, the problem is the guy who’s “Trump aligned” for walking on the street.

You are a truly evil fuck who’s ideologically possessed. You’ve picked a side and will go to any length to make excuses for horrible actions. That’s how a civil war starts.

^^^yes click the dailymail link I posted above ^^^ one guy was even photographed being hit in the back of the head


as for rand paul, his hotel was across the st, but the secret service told them to take a shuttle to the trump hotel, they did, but road closures, etc made it a 45min trip, then they wanted to uber back to their hotel (I guess they weren't staying at the trump hotel? its not clear) and the uber got stuck in traffic, so they decided to walk the rest of the way, which is when they were set upon (this is according to rand paul btw)

Well, I guess it's a good thing Washington D.C. has stricter gun laws. Why was rand paul who works and lives in Washington D.C. staying at a hotel? and where was ted cruz and his ugly wife.
