    Alrighty then. So acts of civil disobedience intended to impede government actions that you disagree with are a sacred right of democracy?

    I can think of a bunch of folks that will THRILLED to have your support and understanding.

      You are joking.. This is Not civil disobedience. To compare what they are doing to what MLK shows your complete and total irrationality. MLK was very purposeful in his protest. He sat in “White only” areas, held mass marches, purposely preached nonresistance arrests to fill jails, and demonstrate for the world the brutality of how they were treated. He supported strikes and other various economic methods by boycotting areas.

      What these people are doing is a disgrace to what he did and is no way at all comparable to him.
      Sat in White only areas? Violated the law.
      Nonresistance arrests? What were they arrested for? Were they breaking the law?
      Brutality of how they were treated? So they were playing gotcha in order to bait LEO into being human and doing bad things and then showcasing that poor treatment?

      You claim these protestors are violating the law and therefore are illegitimate, and then claim they have nothing in common with civil rights protestors who violated the law peacefully.

      Dude. C'mon.

        They are not in any way the same. They did not bait. They did not instigate the police to be brutal. They were just brutal and racist.

        There are videos after videos from these guys instigating, tell them to fuck off, get the fuck out of here. Egging them to punch them or become violent. The civil disobedience is not at all the same as they protested. They want this result. They are not protesting the ICE picking up illegals anymore but the actions of the agents and are doing everything they can to create that scenario.

        You think it is the same. I do not. They are

          Best information consumer practice would be to disbelieve Patel, puppy-killer Noem, Homan, Pondi is to be skeptical of anything they say and treat it as untrue until proven otherwise.
          Oh for sure, now. The hubris with which the Trump folks like is amazing. They have morphed into Trump. Don't believe a thing they say.

          • Hey siri, what is the definition of civil disobedience?
            "...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd. Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

              You don't think sitting at the front of the bus was baiting the establishment?

              Frankly, if an officer of the law can't take some cussing at him/her without reacting with violence and killing people, then time for them to step aside.

                  • J6 was an attempt to overthrow the government Jeff. It was a coup attempt.

                    Rosa Parks is not like J6. MLK is not like J6.
                    She did not smear feces in the halls of government or chase legislators who were fearing for their lives.
                    She did not bring zip ties to hold captive members of congress.

                    This is one of your worst gotchyas yet.

                      • It looks like the guys who killed the nurse are still working. I imaging they've been dispatched to different locations to make investigating the situation harder.

                          • Wait, did I interpret Jeff’s J6 post completely wrong? I dont think so.

                              I don't believe you did. A troll attempt or really bad gotchya. Social media rots people's brains.

                              We have cities internally occupied under fake pretext and people are killed, wrongly detained, abused deported etc. This isn't hard to flat out oppose and condemn.

                                That depends. How did you interpret it?
