Riots and Protests Starting...

[Expat]

Looks like the cream of a generation to me!

I guess there isn't too high a bar to get under....

I heard a statistic the other night that a bunch of people were arrested at a demonstration against Trump and 70% of them weren't registered voters. I'm still confused as to how people can even complain about something they didn't take part in.

They rely on other people to do everything else for them. I guess they were relying on others to vote in their choice for POTUS, too

I think that was in Oregon, and they said "weren't registered to vote in Oregon", meaning they could have been from chicago

Really. Nothing party's like a really good protest/riot.
Just like a free Hot Dog people will drives miles for it.

Let's apply reason and logic to the object of your confusion to see if we can make sense of it.

Did you take part in that demonstration? No.

Can you still complain about that demonstration, its nature, the behaviors and thoughts of its participants? Yes.

Now apply the same to an election. Would it be any different for someone who didn't take part in an election?

Couldn't one still complain about the election, its nature, the behaviors and thoughts of its participants? Sure they could.

It's here too ...

People protesting against Trump, in Paris today.

At least they can have a sign that says "NOT MY PRESIDENT!" and be right about it.
But from some videos I saw some were Americans too.

"Paris against Trump" because in their minds they represent the entire city when they were maybe 200 at most.

I don't even try to understand most of those signs anymore.

I don't know. You don't know. They don't know.

They saw a clever way to make a good -ism equate to a bad -ism and that was that.

Not exactly sure. I just think they needed something that kinda rhymed.

I believe that's how they view patriots.

So if you display an American flag you're a racist and you might as well have joined the KKK.


After a closer look to that picture I noticed the Californian flag, I didn't even know they had neo-Nazis in California.
I thought it was just in Illinois.

 

[voidsherpa]

Why are they flying that commie flag on the right?

Sylvian, there are LOTS of Neo-Nazis in California. Lots. And nice Blues Brothers reference.
