Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 Just now, NotThePars said: A minute number of examples across a massive ongoing nationwide protest involving potentially millions of people doesn't show it as jumping the shark no matter how many times you claim it does. I’ve saw various clips from different places of “flash mob” style dances taking place at the protests. The intention of the cause started off as admirable, but I think now that’s been diluted by actions of the twats above and of course the “influencers” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chinese Communist Party are currently oppressing the people of Hong Kong, a former British territory, and putting Uighurs in 're-education' camps and yet I have heard very little condemnation, let alone volatile protests, which I find very odd. They're probably not dark enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a common, but erroneous, belief that if a person can speak, then they can breathe. I think the cop is a bully and a thug, based upon what I have seen. However, there's evidence which suggests the knee on the neck technique is used by the police in the States as taught to them by the Israeli forces. Why do you think he kept him like that until he was dead instead of cuffing him and chucking him in the back of the police car? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They only detract from them if you choose to give any weight to their opinions which given nobody else worth listening to has leads me to ask why you're using them as your excuse to withdraw their support. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Highland Capital Posted June 7, 2020 Author Popular Post Share Posted June 7, 2020 You just know that you're going to see some of these awful faux-Scots signs at the Glasgow and Edinburgh protests.

Shandon Par Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 My daughter was going to head to the Edinburgh protest so I gave her a shopping list in case there was any looting. Her pal just got a puppy though so she’s off to see that instead. Hardcore anarchist. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 I realise the cops have been a bit naughty and I certainly wouldn't condone it in normal circumstances, but when you have antifa shitting on decent American cars, what are they supposed to do? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only been 75 years since the US had concentration camps for its own people. That's assuming you discount the penal correction system, of course. And Guantanamo Bay. Also remember some politician talking about rounding up all the bums are putting them in camps; not sure how far they got with that, although the homeless population had increased exponentially last time I was back in Arizona. Penal correction does not sound like what it actually means. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
