Here ya' go. Quite a lot of riots during the obama years:jupiter said:Quote:
You are the one denying reality. Leftist insurgency has been going on all over the country - cops assassinated, police stations overrun, homes of police and politicians vandalized, cities burned by the block, including buildings throughout the District of Columbia, federal territory constitutionally reserved as the seat of the federal government. Many elements of State 2 Maoist insurgency playing out in real time, all over the country. You ignore that, then contrive a riot into an insurrection.
You do realize far, far, more law enforcement officers have died from covid that the riots correct?
Where were these Maoist riots before Trump decided to throw away half a million American lives like they were garbage?
Trumps policies killing you by the the hundreds of thousands and you're still fighting to protect him.
Are you sure you don't need to be protected from yourself?
