States rights, right Republicans? Why are Republicans supporting the Federal Govt here? Plus California already sucks according to them, why do they care what Californians do to themselves?

Oh right, Republicans just say what suits them in the moment and are total fucking hypocrites and liars....

Conservatives shouting about "States' Rights" has been bullshit since before the Civil War.

Read on Reuters how Trump is calling it "Riots and Looting" (in all caps e e) and the LA sherriff's department released a statement to the sound of "protesting."

Which, while protests can be stressful to say the least, when they've heated up- that's still a far cry from "riots and looting."

There doesn't seem to be any ulterior motive for the protestors beyond that people are pissed the government's snatching up members in their communities.

There are always bad actors who will loot and steal and burn under cover of the protests. They then become labeled as protestors and here we are.

Note the specific words he is using like "insurrection". That is because "The Insurrection Act of 1807 is the U.S. federal law that empowers the president of the United States to nationally deploy the U.S. military and to federalize the National Guard units of the individual states in specific circumstances, such as the suppression of civil disorder, of insurrection, and of armed rebellion ..." Trump is keeping his word about the KKKristians not having to ever vote again....

Miller has already talked about suspending habeas corpus just for undocumented immigrants existing and deciding they're invaders or some shit. That fascist fucker has been pushing for this. And yeah, every statement from these fucks says "insurrection" never mind they pardoned people trying to overturn lawful election results and threatening to murder government officials.

It's not just that, they're intentionally misusing the term.
Call protesters/rioters "insurrectionists" and you get the term to be watered down and become the new "socialism" or "woke" scare-all tag.

It's only an insurrection when Democrats do it. Otherwise it's just a sparkling tour group.

So what your trying to say is trump admin. intentionally beefed up ICE so it would eventually create public discourse so a protests/protesters can be labeled insurrectionist so they can put La/California in Marshall law? https://media1.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPWE1NzM3M2U1ZmgzdjBpNGJjYWlrODBkcG84c25lMzhsZ2diNDh6bmR3YXZrZzhoYSZlcD12MV9naWZzX3NlYXJjaCZjdD1n/fuJjrm6Cv2onpmpPEK/200w.webp

He wants the violence. Martial law means no law, no courts, no congress no constitution. It empowers the military and give them the legal right to kill people in public and arrest people without cause.

If people were to stage mass protests in, say, every major city in the country. That would REALLY jack up the ratio.

He wants to kill you. History proves that dictators kill people for speaking out. There’s books written on how to resist, they all suggest that being loud or actively against will get you killed. They suggest blending in and causing disruptions secretly. Destroy resources, block progress, impede their progress, arson and poison are better weapons than weapons. Do it from your workplace or places you’re supposed to be. Look like you’re on their side and sabotage. Kill like a ninja

It is....unless the president invokes the Insurrection Act...to nationalize the National Guard.

3 weeks ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 0

And the president can do that unilaterally?

3 weeks ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

It takes either an act of Congress authorizing it or the activation of the Insurrection Act for the President to take authority of a state's National Guard: Great Value Goebbels is pushing Trump to the latter. Courts, and the Governor, would challenge the attempt to define protests as an insurrection.

If I went to the protest I would be in a wheelchair which is an easy target for a asshole with a Grenade launcher. I wouldn't even be able to run if I had to and I'd probably get trampled by our own people if something happened near me. Wouldn't be the first time I've been overrun by a crowd just because my face is at butt level.
