Lol! You just almost made me spew coffee out of my nose.
OMG! They made Michael Landon's character black? /s
This is going to run afoul of the Citizens United ruling.
So, does this mean this is going to be the last hurricane season? Phew! About time. Hurricanes suck. Thanks Trump!
I don't think Hasan actually read Bernie's post.
Imagine getting fired as a journalist for simply stating an objective fact.
Man, I would love to be as delusional as you are. It must be so much fun thinking life is like a video game.
What the people of LA are doing is so much more than optics. They are actively saving lives and guarding their friends and neighbors from police violence.
They are resisting in the most material and direct way anyone can ask.
That is true. But escalation will get those friends and neighbors killed.
Is that why they're shooting random protesters with rubber bullets, even though there's no justification? What are they trying to "prevent"?
I'm not opposed to protests...the LA protests in particular. I'm opposed to violent confrontations with Trump's thugs. I'm opposed to citizens being the ones to escalate the situation. Trump already wants this. All I'm saying is don't give him what he wants. Let them be the ones to escalate. We all know it's coming...so why give him the satisfaction of making him look justified?
Don't just hand him an excuse. Stare them straight in the eyes, and make them take it. That's what protesting is all about. Your defiance is not about hitting back...it's about taking a hit, and standing up again. Make them look like the bullies they are. Don't legitimize their excuses. Prove that they're hollow.
How does getting your neighbors killed, "protect" them? Those people are already doing enough to protect their neighbors right now. How would starting an all-out civil war, protect anyone?
