Fat dude in the middle of the picture on the left sure looks like he has a Texas flag stitched to his green t-shirt. And this is DC?
The guy tweeting it is an MSNBC journalist so I'm inclined to take him at his word since he works for a big company. Internet sleuths think it's special ops prison officers.

Nothing ominous about that at all....

Charges elevated for Chauvin, 3 others charged with aiding and abetting
Well he just saved an entire cityI don't know much about murder. Should we be concerned Ellison is shooting to high? Is he gonna go all the way for 2nd Degree Murder only for him to get off? Similar to what happened in Baltimore?
I think this is happening because the official ME autopsy amended their findings after the independent autopsy found the COD to be strangulation.
Glad to hear charges are coming for the accomplices that held Floyd down before we was strangled by the murderer

Scary to see law enforcement refuse to identify while wearing riot gear. Blocking accountability is a pretty clear bellwether for bad shit going down soon

Peaceful protests sure are effective with the police it seems like. Watch the whole thing.Â

Then when Trump orders it, refuse to comply.  Have a spine. It will make you unique among your party. I refuse to believe in any backbone among these sycophants until they actually ACT.
Reporting yesterday was that all the armed and armored soldiers were saying they were with DOJ when asked. I think the policing action against protesters is going to be led by DEA

I mean, you'd think that puts would be paying off in the midst of historic levels of unemployment, a pandemic, and broad social unrest, but here we are...

I mean, they're literally marching in the streets to protest injustice, but sure lol

Ooh you can’t say that here bc everyone hates Art
I'm part of that group, Art is a sheister who defended his officers murder of the Tuttles and has generally not been great for police accountability in the cities he's in. But HPD did it right yesterday

There was no rioting or looting in Houston last night. This after estimated 60k turned out for the protest/rally.
Amazing what happens when police don't set out with the goal to suppress the speech of the protesters and actually make an effort to hear them and be seen supporting their cause.Â

What if curfews are really being implemented primarily to make lawful marches, protest and gatherings and unlawful act thus allowing a military/police state to override the constitutional right to assemble by a mayor or local authorities temporary power.Â
Folks here are suprisingly nonplussed and dismissive of the use of military force against citizens lawfully exercising their right to peacefully protests. Turns out it's a feature, not a bug

Apparently not all the brick stories were hoaxes:

I think it's a fair assumption at this point that if any tactic or conspiracy theory gets enough coverage we will see it in action. Plastic tubs of rocks are different in my opinion from neat stacks of bricks adjacent to construction projects

Isn’t there a place for Icono/Captain’s discussion? This is part of the problem with DT. Every “stupid” post doesn’t need a page of responses telling him how stupid he is which then devolves into 5 pages of back and forth with nothing ever accomplished. We all know how stupid he is and you’re not going to get anywhere.
DT isn’t the place to change people’s minds, it’s the place to discuss events.
If a poster is severely misstating the facts of the event and driving discussion on an incorrect set of facts, that's sort of a problem for discussing an event. The back and forth is because people don't seem to want to believe what actually happened. I have provided multiple cited sources and primary accounts of what occurred and all I got in return was snarky gifs and told to fuck off.Â

Once again, I'm not arguing with what you are saying, but there's a time and place for everything.
I hear you that there is a time and a place, but isn't the fucking military rolling in and brutalizing protesters and clergy members that time and place to make sure we're all talking about the actual facts that happened?
At a certain point, preventing discussion all together and reframing it as "going to church" in a new thread without context, and starting the thread with a wildly inaccurate description is pretty fucking deceptive and actively minimizes the atrocity. So you haven't outright said you approve of it, but your actions come across as someone who would just rather all the riff raff keep the noise down, truth and accuracy be damned.

ok, I'll answer for him
your feel so strongly about your opinion on this matter that you must tell us multiple times, on a thread discussing moderation of a football board, your opinion on this matter.
Just surprised to see so many folks approve of literally violent attacks on constitutional rights. Especially from a former service member. Learn new stuff every day, I guess.

So the people enforcing crowd control are all hellbent on suppressing dissent. You really believe that? You don't think they were clearing that out for his safety? Why the hell didn't they do that shit the other 3 nights when he didn't leave the White House.Â
They started clearing out and pushing out the protesters WHO HAVE A CONSTITUTIONALÂ RIGHT TO BE THERE half an hour before the curfew went into effect. The police attacked the protesters for being in the way.
Just because the president wants something, doesn't mean that he gets to brutalize the citizens lawfully exercising their rights and inconveniencing him. Especially for a photo opportunity.
If they were concerned for the presidents safety and did not want to knock heads and suppress dissent, they could have just waited a half fucking hour for curfew to start.
Your guess is as good as mine why they didn't do that before. Probably has nothing to do with the tour he's been taking of a bunch of religious sites and his concern with losing the evangelical vote

The real reason the @Michael Knight and @mdmost have their panties in the wad is that they don't have right wing posters like myself to battle with and they are bored. We left and took our toys with us and they don't like the fact that we are not around. I signed out of my account to check the CR thread where my Trump Goes to Church post was moved. mdmost seemed like he was sad that I could no longer participate and made 2 different posts about it. What these guys don't get is that we play be the rules and don't engage in the no Orange Man Bad/Biden is the Spawn of Satan POLITICAL talk. Talking about the office of the Presidency and the rights, responsibilities and privileges associated with it is NON-POLITICAL. Discussing the ability of the President to walk to the burned out church without being at risk of harm and the means to accomplish it are NON-POLITICAL. I am a lawyer, I can follow the rules. blacklab had every right to move the thread to CR because guys like these can't color between the lines.
Don't you have some immigrants to wish violence on?
You're deliberately misrepresenting what happened to say that Trump was visiting a burned out church and just wanted to be safe.

The pattern of "political talk" and its moderation on this board seems to be:
- Notable news event occurs, example of military police attacking lawful peaceful protesters
- Posters discuss the current event factually
- Bad actor poster defends/minimizes/misrepresents the event and misstates material facts of the event
- Bad actor is called out for misstating facts and framing the issue as something its not
- Bad actor attacks along political lines
- Thread is shit upon
- Blacklab makes new thread with his own title to re-re-frame the discussion and moves posts there
The issue isn't politics or not politics. The issue is that people can't handle a viewpoint that isn't in 100% alignment with their own, and if they disagree they shout CR and look for any possible reason to ad-hominem ignore the argument/poster.
This poll is a bad poll. You'll get the result you want thanks to framing it as such, but its your board to run the way you see fit.

So no water with the vodka today? You know my opinions and who I listen to and even what I’m thinking right this moment. We need a psychic thread where we just ascribe a lot of motives and opinions to everyone truth be damned.Â
Have you watched with your own eyes what the US military did to peaceful protesters yesterday in DC?

That crosses the line, bro. I'm done with you.
Awful horrible bad shit is happening in the USA right now, if you are afraid of your fucking feelings getting hurt this isn't the website for you.Â
And good dodge on if you have actually watched what the military did to peaceful protesters yesterday. You too, @Nicole44. People (that you listen to) aren't talking about it because it must not be important, and it must not be important because nobody is talking about it. Very sound logic.
