DaveTV1 Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 It was handled poorly from the start in Minneapolis. They should know that anytime something of this nature happens that riots of this nature are going to happen. I just don't know why people are blocking highways in Houston. That is just as crazy to me as looting, but I guess it's what they think is right, but it's wrong in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When those citizens are rioting, killing innocent folks and destroying the towns and outnumber the law enforcement what do you suggest? Just curious. I honestly don’t like the idea of military against the citizenry either, but at what point do you not consider rioters citizenry?

Please answer this question People who are protesting or rioting are ALWAYS citizens, if they were before, no matter their actions, and they should be treated according to what they do, as to criminal acts. Putting the military in these situations makes us China or Russia or Germany during WW II. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realize having no moral barometer has it flaws but this is common sense. Breaking: Pentagon chief says he does not support the use of active-duty military forces to quell unrest, breaking with Trump In response to unrest related to the death of George Floyd, President Trump threatened to use active-duty military on U.S. streets, which would require the invocation of the Insurrection Act to give U.S. troops arrest powers and other law-enforcement authorities.“The option to use active-duty forces in a law enforcement role should only be used as a matter of last resort and only in the most urgent and dire of situations,” Defense Secretary Mark Esper said Wednesday. “We are not in one of those situations now. I do not support invoking the Insurrection Act.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ObiOne Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 16 minutes ago, NATUREBOY98 said: I do not like seeing troops on American streets. I don’t care who the President is. Unshackle the police if that’s needed. Hell let property owners know they won’t be charged if defending themselves and their property. Isn’t that what the 2nd amendment is for? It’s also to defend against a tyrannical government. Well hell military on the streets is getting pretty damn close to tyrannical. I doubt my fellow conservative friends would be giddy if Obama ordered troops to cities. They’d be ing themselves. So would I. I’m ing myself now too though. Bad precedent. They’ll be a Democrat in office one day. Just opening the door for folks to say “ but Trump did it” and they’ll be right. Who is supposed to unshackle the police? I saw it you saw it, everybody saw it. Thugs were burning down police buildings and cop cars. Somebody obviously ordered the police to stand down. We saw them driving away as that precinct building burned and all those buildings in Minneapolis were burned and looted. The president took an oath to protect the lives and property of United States Citizens. I don't like it, but if the Democratic leaders of these cities/states won't stand up for their people, it is the obligation of the president to do so. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ObiOne Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 1 minute ago, NATUREBOY98 said: That’s why I said unshackle them. BS a police building is set ablaze while police are watching because they are ordered to stand down. It’s a Pandora’s box unleashing the military. Those state and local leaders should be held legally responsible for issuing those orders. Totally agree. But Trump doesn't have the luxury to sit back and Monday morning quarterback. If he doesn't act and citizens die, it will be on him. Tough call for sure. We can go back later and say who should have acted. Maybe one of these days folks will understand that these socialist dems aren't acting in their citizen's best interest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ObiOne Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 2 minutes ago, NATUREBOY98 said: These cities have been putting Democrats in office for 60 years. I don’t see that changing. Police and soldiers are two different things completely. Let’s see how people will react if one of those socialist Dems occupy the Oval Office and order troops to take the streets. Eventually one will sit in there. I don't understand what you want Trump to do. Let these cities burn to the ground? That was happening before he stepped in. These dems will do anything to destroy America. Already saw that with covid and this is more of the same. Trump has to push back......or I guess he doesn't have to. But he should.

ObiOne Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 16 minutes ago, NATUREBOY98 said: Honestly, I think that’s exactly what he should do. These are state issues. Let them see how incompetent they are. Like you said, we see the difference in how the states did according to which way they lean. My main concern is a socialist in office with a precedent in place to send troops into American cities. The precedent is already there. The insurrection act was used in the 50's and 60's and the last time in 1992 in the LA Riots. It is there for when the states can't or won't act to protect their people.

Just a different opinion. I love the military. I don’t trust big government is all. I don’t care which party is in charge. I hate big government with a passion! I also hate seeing citizens beaten and their property destroyed and nobody helping. I don't have the answers.....unless they come to my property. I got a few answers for that.
