Lately I've been watching the current "peaceful protests" and thinking "This is an insurrection."

Kinda interesting in a trivia kinda way.
Don't get me wrong~~thanks for telling me.

Goldfinger was her only top ten song on Billboard chart, but she was apparently
a "legend" in the UK and was 'honored' as a Dame (by the inbred UK royals.)
Brian Wilson did actually die this week and was one of the most influential
people in pop music in the mid-late 20th century, FWIW.

Me dino didn't even know who the singer was until diessos told me.
I didn't even know there was a hoax about her death until I thought it best to snoop around before mouthing off.
Just speaking for me dino self, that Goldfinger song IS unforgettable.
Goldfinger was the first Bond film I saw and in a theater in downtown St. Petersburg, Florida.
Year or so later, I caught up with Dr. No and From Russia With Love at the Skyview Drive-In in Dothan, Alabama.

How long should anti-American-biased media and educators be tolerated?
Follow the money to the foreign backing and shut them down for aiding and providing comfort to the enemy.

I can understand opposing the Deep State in D.C. but not against one of the few federal agencies
that legally protect rights of Americans against invading aliens.

Here's a list of everyone surprised by that.......Thank you, I'll be here all week. Seriously, I think life's mostly a zero-sum game, and this fits that belief. Yeah, social media has successfully broken the MSM's vise-like grip on the news. But it also allows shit like this to happen. Considering that the MSM has pretty much been rendered irrelevant, I think it's a slight win.

Note that so-called 'influencers' are spreading irrational rubbish to foment more riots against federal law officers:

I don't get the fascination by the media with death of long retired and out of
public eye over-the-hill "celebrities" who were barely recognized in their prime.
She wasn't Billie Holiday, Sinatra, Elvis, or Ella.

The (foreign anti-American) Soros-paid useful idiots ,Democrats, and media made the overdose
death of a drug criminal national in May 2020 and they have promised to do the same this weekend.
This time it was a direct assault on federal officers doing their jobs in addition to assault on innocent
business and property owners. What would you do, sing Kumbaya and hope not to be set on fire
by peaceful rioters?
I'd much rather see Sacramento, SF, and LA forced to stand on their own without taxes from
productive businesses and people, but that's not going to happen.
Is it just a coincidence that the 'peaceful' riots happen where unconstitutional gun laws prevent
people from defending their rights and property?

We're good.

I enjoy thinking and have lived through an awful lot of craziness brought on by others.

There is evil in this world and it does need to be resisted in the correct way to destroy it utterly.
The correct way is to undermine it and to let it self-destruct.

If he did that would be a real shocker...

Thanks so much OGC!!!! Great collection of then and now.....

I want to apologize for coming on strong. This is a place to discuss--not get into flame wars, which is what I've allowed myself to do. Everyone in here has opinions, and I try to respect their opinions as I expect them to respect mine.

I didn't do that with you, and I apologize.

Also, I don't have any answers to your questions. They're all valid. While I stand on my original point, there are probably too many facets to this to have just one solution.

I like your trip down memory lane, but we can go much further back. Recall the famous (infamous?) "Boston Massacre" and John Adams defense of self-defense that got the British soldiers acquitted. It seems the rioters were throwing potentially deadly projectiles at the soldiers and the whole thing went to hell from there. The officers at the time tried to keep restraint, but under increasing pressure from a violent mob you get a Boston Massacre or a Kent State. The left wants exactly that.

Wonderful, OUC! AHA, additional proof of the "Law of Conservation of Fat". That is fat cells once created, can never be destroyed - they can only be shifted around (you lose fat, then someone else gains it). Here we see a new phenomenon where objects like TVs and computers can shed fat and it is gained by humans. Scary, LOL!

All good points.

What if the rioters don't value their own individual lives ?

What if the issue IS to die by the hand of the US government ?

What if Soros and Gates have long-since realized that they have an unlimited amount of "useful idiots" and can create endless conflicts and chaos within this country because funding is also unlimited ?

You and I personally value our own lives and respect proper boundaries both personal and physical. They don't.

There are people who live to create chaos and thrive on goading conflicts.

He may think of pulling a Tulsi but being a weirdo maybe not.

3 esp hit home, all great though

Now 78 and having seen Goldfinger when it was fresh in theaters, me dino was tempted to write "Dem dry bones" or something like that.
Then I decided not to be stupid and looked her up.

Thank you, OUC! 👍

A Republican "pretending" to be democrat?

Yeah where's Shirley Bassey when you need her? :p

Well, you are right on that. And a trip down memory lane:

Zimmerman vs. Travon Martin, Black Lives Matter, Daniel Pantaleo (never charged) vs Eric Garner in chokehold, I can't breathe, Officer Darrin Wilson (never charged) shoots Michael Brown, "Don't shoot", evolves to, "Hands up, Don't shoot", Officer Derek Chauvin vs George Floyd and lots of discrepancies but Chauvin goes to prison and three others charged with aiding and abetting. And January 6th, both sides lied to us on this one. Neither side showed the actual videos of the mayhem and there was a lot of commotion and pure aggression. I'd like to know who the individuals and groups were that carried the bats and other tools of the trade. Remember Baltimore, Seattle, Summer of Love, and al the other lies, just how peaceful they were.

If we don't start and continue to obey and enforce our laws and stop telling lies about demonstrations, laws, and actions then we are doomed. The media is the best instigator. Both sides omit what doesn't fit their agenda.

Me dino can't get over how Fetterman got over whatever ailment he had when elected and now despite still appearing freaky proves to be more intelligent than the rest of the entire Democrat Party.

Federal law enforcement agents are being attacked and injured. That makes it a national issue.
