Remember the difference between protests and looting. Many politicians have encouraged protesting but I have not seen one in favor of looting.
 
How convenient,yet they made no effort to stop the looting and destruction of property

“If you see somebody getting ready to throw a tomato, knock the crap out of them, would you? Seriously, OK? Just knock the hell … I promise you I will pay for the legal fees. I promise, I promise,” the future president said on Feb. 1, 2016.

If somebody wants to start a fight by throwing things, that person should expect other people to fight back. Not seeing the problem here, other than leftist agitators facing the natural consequences of their actions.
“I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t lose voters,” Trump said at a campaign rally in Iowa.

Clear hyperbole, the dead guy would not be removed from the voter roles, and a Democrat ballot harvesting operation would ensure that he voted “correctly”.

It was condoning violence. Also, if one believes in the police and the security that is at these events, they should let the professionals take care of the person instead of escalating the situation.

Just because agitators (right or left) are agitating does not mean the rest of us have to do what they want and jump into their mayhem. And it would be nice if the President stopped encouraging those who want violence by encouraging people to join in.

Legitimate protests will not:
  1. damage or steal property
  2. block or otherwise interfere with traffic and people going about their daily lives.
  3. threaten or imply threats against people.
Government has one main job: protect individual rights. Starting with and including George Floyd, mayors and governors have either been at cross purposes to this, or have been complicit with the violence on the streets.
 
To attribute people burning down the businesses and livelihoods and taking the lives of others to something as minor as this really is excessive. There are no tomato throwers lying in the streets having had the crap knocked out of them. Where are the photos of them? That was just talk. But burned buildings and killed youngsters are of another quality entirely, and bespeak a motivation to wrongfully excuse vicious people.
 
Trump does not condemn a person who might well be innocent (and is, in fact, innocent if that reporter is believed)

And the left claims he’s responsible for three months and more of arson, looting and killing, all of which resulted from the actions of…not Trump…but a Minneapolis police officer and the failure of Democrat mayors and governors to do their duty and stop the assaults.

After Biden’s comments that the violence would stop if he’s elected, makes it seem like a threat. If anybody controls or influences these rioters, it sure isn’t the Repub party or Trump.
 
Like ANTIFA and BLM? What unpleasant political groups has Trump made actual common cause with? No fanciful attributions, please, real declarations and/or acitons.

He sure condemned the Central Park Five.

As far as it seems now, he was mistaken in doing it.

Since there is no “systematic racism”, it’s not what’s driving the current riots. Biden’s ability to control what these groups do in the future will depend on his ability to dry up their funding.

And a certain portion of America’s denial of white privilege and systematic racism is what will make it harder for Biden to cut into it, but he will.

I have not the slightest doubt that Biden and his people will ensure that “white privilege” and “systematic racism” are viciously pounded into the brains of all school children, and those of them who are white will be shamed and vilified and disadvantaged in every way the racist elites can dream up. Those of them who are not white will be taught to hate, even if their parents and pastors preach against it.

The Dems are doing a fair job of inciting racial animosity right now. Give them power and it will be like nothing ever seen in this country.
 
I get increasingly reminded of something in a book written by a Polish priest who lived under the communists during that era. He spoke of the courage required of a parent who, at some decisive point in his child’s life is confronted by the propaganda taught in his child’s school, and says “It’s all lies, son”.

And so it is now in many of our schools, and so it will certainly be if Biden wins this election. Children will be taught evil in the schools, and no question about it. They will be taught racial hatred, false history, sexual perversion, and the killing of innocent unborns. As Jesus Himself said:

“But if you cause one of these little ones who trusts in me to fall into sin, it would be better for you to have a large millstone tied around your neck and be drowned in the sea…”

And if Catholic schools fail to teach “enlightened truths” like those of Biden and Harris, they will be crushed just as Biden promises to crush the Little Sisters of the Poor if they refuse to provide abortifacients to their workers.
 
Two of my younger grandkids are enrolled in an independent charter school.The curriculum is very rich and classical in nature. This is one of several charter schools around the Nation affiliated with Hillsdale College.If you are familiar with Hillsdale you know what an awesome e education these children are receiving.None of the leftist progressive indoctrination ,rampant in the public schools.🇺🇸

If the tomato doesn’t hit you, can you claim a right to self-defense if you “nip it in the bud”? If it was thrown away from you, can you claim a right to self-defense if you “nip it in the bud”?? If someone is carrying a tomato can you claim a right to self-defense if you “nip it in the bud”?

You might want to watch (or re-watch) the Minority Report.
 
If I see someone wearing a Biden t-shirt and mask at a Trump rally cocking their arm back with a tomato in hand, the reasonable conclusion is that they are preparing to throw it. At that point, self-defense and defense of third parties applies.
