    Let's stop the nonsense about federal agents in Portland

    Pretty much what I've been saying all along.

    The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

    And just as wrong, and just a naive as what you have been saying all along.

    The problem is that by the time you figure out the real danger they are to our way of life, it will be too late to save it. Hopefully the push back that will stop this will be able to proceed without your help or the help of people like you.
    My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism. James 2:1

    If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not  bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless James 1:26

    This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; James 1:19

      Thanks, Jim. You're still WAY wrong on so many points, and I note you do not apologize, retract, or clarify.

        What is there to retract, clarify, or apologize for CP?

          I've already forgiven you, so I forgot.

            I think we need to let Portland have their own way on the rest of the city outside of Federal property. If they want to burn it to the ground, that's their business. Trump should just deny them any Federal aid down the line because they are refusing Federal police aid now that could have helped prevent the damage they will want Federal funds to repair later.

              I agree, let it burn, it will make for great commercials in the upcoming election.

                Yeah, at this point, it needs to be up to the people of the city of Portland. If they want chaos and anarchy, let them keep Democrats in power.

                I'll all for "bringing our troops home".

                  "While all Americans cherish the right to peaceably assemble and petition the government" Does that include peaceful protesters being tear-gassed so that the president can walk a few metres to do a photo op outside a respected church?

                    I have clearly denounced that photo op elsewhere on this board. He used the Bible and a church as props for political purposes.

                    As for Portland, what are peaceful protesters doing hanging around rioters at night?

                      We already had a thread on that. You should probably take this derail there. Deflection noted.

                        Also, there is no evidence whatsoever that the violent protesters were cleared out solely for the President's benefit or that tear gas was used. In fact, every law enforcement official who haa spoken on the record says that tear gas was not used.

                        But, yes, using the Bible as a prop was not cool. I understand the point he wanted to make, but he chose a poor way to make it.

                          So, the more we watch this chaos unfolding night after night after night, and local 'authorities' not only allowing, but encouraging it, a few things become clear.

                          The leftists are FAR more concerned about 'peaceful protesters' and 'moms' getting hurt than they are about a bunch of anarchist anti-American THUGS attempting to tear burn down a federal building.

                          So, a couple of questions...

                          What are "moms" doing in a riot zone defending anarchists trying to burn down a federal building?
                          What are "peaceful protesters" doing hanging around a riot zone?

                          If they truly were "peaceful protesters", they would separate themselves from the chaos and violence instead of putting their lives in jeopardy by becoming part of it.

                          It's just STUPID to claim to be a "peaceful protester", and try to "peacefully protest" in what has become a riot zone.
                          It's JUST as stupid for lefties to be outraged at these "peaceful protesters" being harmed when they clearly identify with and aid and abet the chaos and mayhem.

                          "Peaceful protests" are not conducted late at night in a riot zone.


                          And, by the way, the ONLY reason these women are referred to as "moms" is to make them look more innocent as they aid and abet violence.
