Two questions about the MI protestors

[TommyLucchese]

Amazingly not one of you wants the cops to turn fire hoses on them and then arrest them.

[conan]

Yes…and you do know “some” of us were against it as well.

Regardless what race, their background etc. We all have Constitutional right to protect our freedoms under the 2nd.

You either believe that or you don’t. Just for record…I’m very aware of history.

Everyone addressed the garbage Original Post. It was a crap OP and now you get to own it.

There has not been a single response to either of the two questions.

I can only conclude that the folks responding here can not explain the nexus of guns and protesting stay and home orders, and take no issue with the protestor screaming in the face (unmasked btw) of the LEO doing his job.

It’s odd, because you in particular seem very upset when left leaning protestors behave similarly, ut you seem to have no issue here.

That seems hypocritical.

You got plenty of responses you just didn’t like any of them.

Because they can.

Side note:

When the Black Panthers legally did this, reagan and teh CA legislator immediately passed a law forbidding it.

I can think of no reason why on the street today a citizen should be carrying loaded weapons.

Of course not…But why would one feel the need to carry around a weapon like that? I don’t get it…does it make them feel like badasses or something? And before the “because they can” answer, I want your opinion …why do you they think they feel the need to, to prove what point?

[conan]

But YOU don’t get the make that decision for them. And thus the point.

I can, and # 1 on the list is the right to be secure in their person.

Governor Reagan didn’t think so when the Black Panthers were open carrying weapons.

Right, but the question is why this?

They could just as easily dress up as Ronald McDonald. That is their right too.
But they choose to dress like this…why?

Why do you assume they “need” to?

What is the purpose of a protest?

Reagan was a hoplophobe. And quite probably racist.

If they didn’t feel the need to, then why would they do it?

[conan]

So what…I’m not Reagan.

[Scratch]

Going to have to turn in your Conservative card for speaking ill of Ronaldus Maximus…lol

[conan]

Why not?

The question you should be asking yourself is do they need your approval?

[tnt]

@conan

Of course they don’t need my approval. Never for a second suggested they did.

I am trying to understand their POV.

This thread hasn’t been helpful in that endeavor. Jay Jay’s comparison to people who where vagina hats is the closest I’m come to understand the mind set that leads one to link guns to a stay at home protest.

Do you ever do anything you don’t need to?

Reagan was not conservative.

[conan]

Because they can. Once you embrace this concept a new world view will open up.
