  1. Kaepernick is an self aggrandizing idiot that runs around like a petulant child, the poster boy for being anti American. He doesn’t offer any solutions, he just lives off the division he helps create. And the mayor of Minneapolis is a milk sop whiner, also completely failing to allow the police to uphold the laws of the city under the guise of allowing “civil disobedience” in response to what was clearly an uncontrolled response by ONE guy during an arrest. This is an indictment of one guy that lost control, not an indictment on the police. That is what the mayor should be saying and he should be also be firmly condemning the violence being committed by the criminals looting and destroying property.

  2. I don’t think Trump send in the National Guard, as the mayor is clearly no on board with regaining control of the city. The last thing that needs to happen here is to have a repeat of Kent State in 1970, which will only cause the anarchists further fuel to continue destroying a civilized society. Louisville, on the other hand, ain’t playing. Some criminals attacked a police vehicle, attempting to turn it over and people got shot. The police can do their job, if they are allowed to do it.

  3. Twitter is violence. Occasionally I will see a funny anecdote or spicy meme that one of my friends will send me from there only to be overwhelmed by the hatred and pure evil that spews out of that toxic intellectual dumpster.

  4. Did my comment get deleted or is it still waiting to get approved? I don’t believe I broke any of the rules. Thanks

  5. You didn’t present the Tweet which was flagged but the previous one. Below is the warning and below that the is the flagged Tweet.

    Warning: “This Tweet violated the Twitter Rules about glorifying violence. However, Twitter has determined that it may be in the public’s interest for the Tweet to remain accessible. Learn more (https://help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-policies/public-interest)”

    The Tweet:
    “….These THUGS are dishonoring the memory of George Floyd, and I won’t let that happen. Just spoke to Governor Tim Walz and told him that the Military is with him all the way. Any difficulty and we will assume control but, when the looting starts, the shooting starts. Thank you!”

    Article I of the Constitution and the The Posse Comitatus Act limit the President’s authority to unilaterally do as he suggested in this tweet.

  6. Now I get it. Free speech for thee, but not for me. Thomas Jefferson said occasionally freedom has to be renewed with blood. Almost there.
