I still have my doubts it will come to a full-blown civil war for 2 reasons. One, most of these militia types, while still dangerous, have ambitions far exceeding their ability, discipline, resources, time and talent. Most of them are all, "We gonna take over da gub'mint, boyz! Next week!"What's going on??? We are close to a civil war is what's going on!
Oh, I'm so happy you asked that.What the ever living fuck does Trump have to do with this? We don't live in a fucking dictatorship, why is everyone so obsessed with Trump even when in a topic that doesn't have to with him?
Because they got caught? Easier to be upset about something that's happened rather than something that has been stopped.
If it is medically possible to scream-vomit, I will probably find out before the election at this rate.Also see: The article I posted with a supposed law enforcement officer lying about a pregnant woman's interference and then kneeling on said Pregnant woman.
In addition to what ObsidionJones said, Trump inserts himself in everything is why Trump is always brought up. Then he does stupid things like incite violence and make up irrational things like planes full of thugs and dark shadow people " controlling the streets".What the ever living fuck does Trump have to do with this?

Yee haw bring it on.What's going on??? We are close to a civil war is what's going on!

Trump just has a terrible habit of making everything worse.
None of that is related to George Floyd....Oh, I'm so happy you asked that.
Let's start at the beginning. What the incoming Trump Administration thought about Police reform. In short, the administration was not a fan. From the outset, Trump (via his mouthpiece at that time, Jeff Sessions) tried the 'few bad apples' technique and said that restricting law enforcement due to these bad actors was 'harmful for officer morale', so he sought to remove the Obama-placed tighter regulations. Which he did. The ideas of building communities with Law Enforcement meant nothing compared to giving them much cooler gadgets to fight gangs!!
Gangs that largely might not even exist, if we follow what's happening in California.
But maybe it's time to talk about some of the protections that were supposed to help police reform. Enter Consent Decrees!
Or, rather exit Consent Decrees. Jeff Sessions made short work of that when he was on his way out.
And we can talk about how after President Trump pontificated on the "Black Identity Extremists", Lo and Behold, they became the top threat in the eyes of the FBI. Above White Supremacists and Al-Qaeda. Without an attack to their name.
And if we're talking about not even being able to protest without being labeled a national threat, how about Trump's adminstration almost shuttering a Federal Civil Rights Agency during some of the most tumultuous times we've seen in race relation for a while.
Just bad timing? Historically bad timing if that were the case, but we have to look at what Trump does. He will blast Football Players exercising their God Given Right to Protest in America, but will "very fine people on Both sides" for Charlottesville.
We're talking about an Administration who we've seen be populated with nothing but yes men to Trump. If you have your own opinion, you're out. If you tow Trump's line, you're golden. So it becomes hard to believe anything other that all these things being Trump's will. A will that took away protections for a minority while strengthening an already overmilitartized Police Force by removing restrictions and oversights.
Oh, you know.... Just this.

In short, when you are not held up to the laws that are written for you, and the absolute boss tells you that not only are you're doing a good job, but he's removing or defanging any legislation that's supposed to keep you in check... you'll do whatever you want.

Your question that they were responding to wasn't about George Floyd. It was about Trump. They answered that question. Don't move the goalposts just because it wasn't the answer you wanted.None of this has anything to do with George Floyd.
None of that is related to George Floyd....
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Your question that they were responding to wasn't about George Floyd. It was about Trump. They answered that question. Don't move the goalposts just because it wasn't the answer you wanted.
And they told you.???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
My question was why are people bringing up Trump in a thread about George Floyd.......
Trump talking about the George Floyd protests = having to do with both trump and George Floyd. It isn't hard to understand. You do understand that the protests were about George Floyd don't you? Haven't you been paying attention? I really have to wonder what exactly you think has been going on this entire time? It is like the entire chain of events that were set off from the point in time the police officer murdered George Floyd and the protests all over the world broke out because of that happening went right over your head there.???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
My question was why are people bringing up Trump in a thread about George Floyd.......
The title of this thread is "So what's going on with the post George Floyd Situation."None of this has anything to do with George Floyd.
None of that is related to George Floyd....
Can you honestly name any person on this planet that can give more pressure on the American Legal System than the President of the United States?Thing is I am kinda worried that this is gonna be...not forgotten, but put aside because of other events that are happening right now, when was thinking this should at least be more monitored.
Like I am worried that Derek Chauvin is gonna be a acquitted and not go on trial at all, because of the lack of pressure on the legal system to do so.
