What in the fuck is he talking about?
This is the kind of stuff I am hearing in passing offline. It’s hard to imagine, but the offline discussion is far more disgusting than the online. On average, the level of criticism of the protests is at “Why don’t they just shoot them all” levels at this point.
I hope the protests are motivating Democrats and the Left to vote, because they are certainly solidifying the Right.

I mean “Progressives”/“Progresso”… WE ARE THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS HERE PEOPLE
Yeah, I completely misunderstood my orders. It was embarrassing. I guess no promotion to henchman for me.
We’re about 15 minutes away from a world in which cops start justifying fatal shootings by planting bouillon cubes on the corpses.
“A police officer happened to be in the parking lot at the time and confronted the couple. The shooters were later identified as Wallace Fountain, 77, and his wife, Beverly Fountain, 72, the owners of the strip mall. They were arrested that night on three counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon without intent to kill, according to the report.”
If you are firing a weapon at a person, your intent does not matter, you are attempting to kill them.
“The Fountains were released without bond and ordered to surrender their firearms until the case is resolved.”
That says it all. This is why there are people in the streets.

Well, and this
During their court appearance, Hall noted Fountain’s former career in the prosecutor’s office and said she served “honorably.”
Crazed racist shooter is friends with the folks who will be deciding her fate. No way these two do any significant amount of time.
Having to justify fatal shootings would be progress.
Negative consequences and repercussions for fatal shootings would be progress. Defund police unions.
The Fountains had been surveilling the location inside a U-Haul of their own, claiming they were having problems with people stealing gas from their fleet of U-Haul trucks. During their arrest, officers found a shotgun in their U-Haul and the couple were carrying several pistols, including a .357-caliber Magnum and a Glock 19.
Trying to kill people, not for trying to steal their trucks. Vigilante death penalty for stealing gas…
Great thread.
H/T to @jwz for amplifying this on his blog.
Remember, nothing has ever been solved through random acts of senseless violence.
You need targeted acts of strategic violence.
MANY PEOPLE who protest in the nation’s capital are from OTHER PLACES IN AMERICA
“So, these people that descended on Washington, D.C., most of them were not local. In fact, I flew in with a bunch of them where I got on a plane in Salt Lake City where I had to commute through and I saw maybe two dozen BLM people.”
That strikes me as unlikely.

Almost everyone on the left who votes will probably vote Dem. As they did last time, as they do every time.
But there is very little chance that significant numbers of young working class people will choose to cope with the extreme expense and danger of trying to cast a ballot in a working-class precinct just so they can record a vote for the people whose cops have been beating the crap out of them for months.
Western New York is about to explode. First it was that hippie getting his head split open and how cops were cheering on said cops who pushed him at city hall in Buffalo and now this bullshit on the region’s eastern end
What the hell is the point here? Cruising for chicks is kinda out of fashion at this point in time, and they don’t seem to be celebrating anything. Do they think we have forgotten they exist?
