They sell bulletproof backpacks in the US for children, not uncommonly. Body armor has been recommended for serious protesters for a while. In 2020 numerous average people were shot by right-wing opposition at protests.

You are wrong, people are pissed and are willing to show it. Have you never felt serious about something in your life? He didn't initiate the violence, the raids in his community from masked fascist goon squads started the violence. He is defending the people.

Well when we fought the original Nazis it wasn't limited to the officers and leadership.

While definitely not the same level of violence of that, during the protests in 2020, I never saw the police riot and assault the group when there were armed civilian guards. Even five or so out 100+ people was enough to give the cops pause.

From what I've seen as well most fires aside from the Waymos were started by the flashbangs and smoke grenades the police were using.

Hey now don't be unfair, they showed immense strength and resolve when they fixed systemic racism by wearing Kente cloth and kneeling in 2020. For the history books, this was the day racism in America was forever abolished:

It was common rhetoric among the supporters at the time to hang the Democratic officials that were certifying the count and then Mike Pence when he didn't go along with their plans, they had even built a makeshift gallows out front before the assault.

I'm saying it's false to call yourself a 'conservative' if you align with the US conservative movement because it is a fascist movement.

There was a good reason, to stop the police and ICE from attacking people, that's not why they were sent though. In the past the National Guard has been called in to stop local police, like during the end of segregation when local authorities opposed race-mixing in the 60s. But the purpose in this case is to escalate tensions and push the narrative of a 'violent insurrection'.

Numerous people have been sent to the ER after being attacked by police, including a UK journalist who needed emergency surgery after his calf muscle was impaled by a 40mm 'rubber bullet'. People have been shot by teargas and other munitions at close range and been trampled by horses from the LAPD. Many of the fires seen were started by flashbangs and other munitions used by the police. They also have 500 US Marines on standby, which is also only for the purpose of agitating people further and selling the unrest as an 'invasion' to his base.

It's somewhat hyperbolic to say a lot on the right are actual nazis, but this dude is the most neo-Nazi motherfucker and deserves everything that should come to Nazis.

Yeah why incite a civil war, just ignore the invasion and let them win without resistance /s

Fascism isn't conservative. 'Conservatives' in the US are mostly heartless white-supremacists hiding under the established parties to enact neo-nazi policies under the guise of 'patriotism' and civility.

Not trying to defend NG or any US troops, but those examples were from the LA police, not the national guard. Of all the worst direct violence I've seen so far from LA, National Guard haven't been the ones attacking. From reports I've heard they are mostly standing around federal property because that's all they have jurisdiction at.

They will block the pepperballs, rubber bullets might break them but most could withstand the hit better than your eyeball. It would lessen the injury from any projectiles they're currently using, not actual bullets.

Fuck off, fuck the cops and fuck their nazi sympathizing defenders.

I didn't see much property damaged by protesters aside from ICE/DHS vehicles, but I did see numerous fires started by the munitions the nazis were using.

Fuck off Nazi, anyone with sense knows the difference between Zionism and Jews.

What do you mean? What are you suffering from? I'm not trying to be snarky, I'm not sure what you mean. If you are talking about disabilities I have a disability, I have suffered immensely, only heartless people want you gone. I don't want you or anyone to have to suffer. I am sorry if what I said was hurtful.

It's difficult to comprehend just how much more wealthy a billionaire is. If you spent $10 every ten minutes, it would take you about 70 days to go through $1 million. To reach a billion would take 190 years.
