I was wondering why CNN was no longer running all day stories about the peaceful protesters. Clearly, thanks to endless videos showing what's really going on, popular support for them has diminished.
CNN appears now to be coronavirus 24/7 - I suspect because of the back to school issue, which its core viewers care about for good reason.
I guess that puts a stake through the heart of the "Trump stormtrooper invasion" false narrative.
Hey Al, I've noticed the msm is now referring to them as "mostly peaceful protesters". That's progress.
Federal Agents Push Into Portland Streets, Stretching Exceeding Limits of Their Authority
If they can make the case they were apprehending people who were destroying federal property, or can make the case this was the perimeter they needed to protect the property, then they have the authority.
What should make a normal person sick, which of course you and dailykos are not, is the AMOUNT OF DAMAGE that these anarchists/socialists are doing. Why are you defending them ??? They aren't BLM, they're brainwashed idiots.
And why do you continue to disagree with NAACP and BLM IN PORTLAND and side with silly brainwashed (probably white) essay writers from the dailykos ?
I can count on one hand the number of times you've been right.
Either you can't count or you're the one who believes her own bullshit. Or both.
Take your pick.
awww c'mon ayock, even you know this article is nonsense and filled with false information.
but sadly like the anti masker/science deniers, there are millions of people ready to believe this fiction. maybe the author should have read the NAACP and BLM news story before right an essay based on nonsense ?
hi arizona1, I know after so many examples, when you change the subject, it's your way of acknowledging I'm right. :)
As for Richmond, so I guess my years of predicting we're heading for civil war are finally starting to come true. I thought it would start to happen about 10 years from now, but you know,the pandemic ... has given the unemployed at lot more free time. and if you don't have to work the next morning, you can stay up late and riot.
so Am posted a story, which I also saw about the Portland police finding rounds of ammo and Molotov cocktail like devices near the riot area. The first thing I thought was how easy it would have been for a right winger to plant the stuff there.
hi ayock, the problem is I'm not giving you opinions. I'm giving you facts that you don't like hearing, so you dismiss them as opinions.
what about the NAACP and BLM's "opinions" which I made it clear I agreed with. are you saying they are members of the far right too ?
Hi arizona1, are you questioning the NAACP and BLM and not acknowledging there concerns ? If so, according to the social justice handbook, that makes you a racist, right ?
You can cherry pick incidents that fit your false narrative all day long, but they dont change the fact that the Portland riots are anarchist/socialist driven. And the Feds arent the bad guys in this drama.
Hi Ayock, yes people are coming out to support the BLM portion of the protesters.
Much to the delight and glee of the (mostly white) anarchists/socialists who are using them - like the NAACP and BLM have said.
allowing the anarchists/socialists to be as violent as they want cuz they know the media is afraid to accuse BLM of any wrongdoing.
Hi Ayock, when Mrs Trellis mistakenly claimed the internet was British, she was referring to Tim Burners-Lee, who invented the world wide web, which sits on top of the internet (created by DARPA).
It's a fairly common mistake by laypersons to confuse the WWW with the Internet.
Hi ayock, this lie has been circulating around for a few days now.
I would believe the NAACP and BLM. Unless you think they're lying ??
Hi Ayock, having the "vision" doesn't count. The internet was build by DARPA.
Yes Telsa was an immigrant. But Edison wasn't.
The Internet is American, and Edison (an American) and Tesla harnessed electricity for public use.
But Mrs Trellis, being clueless about history, I'll give you.
Straight from the NAACP and BLM: the "peaceful protester" is a false narrative. (note: as I've said, BLM is peaceful, anarchist/socialists are using their gatherings for cover).

It's not news. It's a profile.
An honest story from July 3rd.
https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/portland-oregon-protest-turns-violent-arrested-71594643
Hi arizona1, if the fact that I havent kept my profile up to date bothers you ..... and you equate it to fake news ...... you might want to look into some counseling.
I get it .... an unstoppable dangerous virus (thank you China !), a president who makes us cringe when he speaks, and violent law breaking anarchists going wild using well intentioned BLM protesters for cover.
Its taking its toll on everyone.
But does the video show why they had to take action ? You know, like 50 days of not-so-peaceful protests, attacking Federal property ... little stuff like that ?
You know, if you start the World War II story in 1943, the Allies look like the bad guys.
Something to think about.
uh huh...... video doesnt lie
And then were arrested, fined, and sent to prison.
He skipped over that part.
The restraining order is to prevent federal agents from engaging with journalists or legal observers.
Which I dont think they've done or want to do so its kind of a hollow victory.
Federal agents are still allowed to protect federal property and arrest people who are destroying federal property.
like ChrisJP, refuse to update their profile information even though they know they're peddling fake news.
I'm not sure what updating my profile has to do with anything.
And ..... show me where I've posted fake news. I've been calling out fake news before it was called "fake news". you, Ayock, mr40, and even Al other the other hand ......
Keep those false accusations coming.
Hi Al, I'm waiting for "Peaceful Protesters Hold Babies and Puppies While Throwing Bottles and Bricks at Police Officers"
Lol
Hey al, just imagine if all those hours spend protesting were spent tutoring underprivileged kids and helping them prepare for college or learn a trade.
Hi Ayock, suppression of free non-hate speech through intimidation and force, control of the media, unending false accusations .....
sounds like the definition of fascism you posted.
It would be great if the "abolitionists" were trying to abolish fascism. But they're not. They're goal is to abolish the United States. And replacing it with something that always becomes totalitarian.
There's that totalitarian word again. Where did that come from ? Oh yeah -- from you.
Just quoting the Attorney General of the State of Oregon.
Who clearly was lying.
Maybe he's trying to win a "who can lie like Trump" contest ?
here's how it works:
1. Have the media on your side so that no matter what you do they'll claim your are peaceful protesters
2. Falsely claim your protesting for social justice, when in fact your protesting for anarchy
3. Attack and destroy government property
4. When the government acts within its rights - scream FASCISM and of course that's what the media reports.
Its sad how many people fall for it.
There you go again with the "peaceful protesters" false narrative.
Your lies are so easily disproven. Who do you think you are - Donald Trump ?
False accusations, denial of facts. Wow - the left wing abolitionist fascists must be thrilled to have you rooting for them.
And there you go again with the false accusations. Nice to know some things never change.
Be gracious when someone gives you a gift Ayock.
Left wing fascists ! Do I get any credit for coining the term ?
You must be looking at a different constitution. The one I have doesn't give anyone the right to storm and vandalize a government building.
Its amazing what you can get away with when the media's on your side !!
Hi Ayock, the joke is the improper logic that assumes causality.
I think a better meme would have been "CNN warned us that if we didnt kiss China's ass that they'd find a way to get even with us ..... and here we are !"
Hey Al, I saw in on Yahoo News, but its actually from left sympathetic Daily Beast !
Yupe - Peaceful Protesters Attack Federal Courthouse ..... Again, lol.
and using their mommies as human shields, lol.
Whooops ! An editor at Yahoo News probably just got fired, lol.
Federal Agents ‘Beaten Back’ Into Portland Courthouse by 2,000 Protesters, Including Parent Groups
An estimated crowd of 2,000 people participating in the protests in Portland, Oregon, “tore open the doors of a federal courthouse and then beat back the agents inside” in the early hours of Tuesday morning
https://www.yahoo.com/news/federal-agents-beaten-back-portland-111216636.html
Hilarious ! But none of what you or anyone else is claiming accounts for this "peaceful" stuff.
Hi Al, I just recently posted that false accusation appears to be the militant left's weapon of choice.
lol
Lilith Sinclair - all I can say is ... wow.

I aint disagreeing about our nation's act of genocide (the Spanish helped with that too), but to claim so much injustice as to call for the abolition of the US is just nuts.
By the way, I could EASILY make the case that we are a nation of SYSTEMIC INCLUSION that would negate the current systemic racism false narrative.
