Yes. He lost his job even though he was cleared by the courts. The last poor teenager he killed was actually shooting at him in a crowded parking lot. Maybe the Officer should have let himself or someone else be killed instead? Wake up people!
Cleared =/= innocence.
Many many many times, LE offices LIE about what happens.
They have no credibility when it comes to shootings.
If they were not wearing a cam, then they have something to hide.
The kid he shoot, had a legal gun.
In any case, the officer apparently had mental issues, and having him as a LEO was not the greatest of the ideas…

What people don’t seem to understand is that as a Democrat I couldn’t even tell you what Antifa really stands for. They are pretty far-left extremists. They don’t get endorsements from the democratic party and you won’t see any high ranking government officials espousing their beliefs or giving them coded language in public like “you need to stand by and fight till the end”. Because they are pretty extreme.
However, I can tell you exactly what the far-right extremists believe because the president is leading the charge. He talks directly to them and stokes the fire. He literally calls for violence and insurrection and then after something happens says “oh I wasn’t serious” or “be peaceful”. It’s like throwing gasoline on a fire and then realizing how big it got and then placing a cup of water next to it in hopes that it will die down. The actual leader of the US is a far-right extremist. He literally shows every symptom of being or wanting to be a dictator.
This is without the fact (that has been said before) that BLM protests are about equality and extrajudicial police violence and killings while the far-right protests are about a legitimate and fair election that has gone through deep scrutiny and has come out the other side with almost no real accusations of fraud or illegitimacy sticking (50+ court cases).

I’m sorry, but this is completely false.
Between 24 May and 22 August, ACLED records more than 10,600 demonstration events across the country. Over 10,100 of these — or nearly 95% — involve peaceful protesters. Fewer than 570 — or approximately 5% — involve demonstrators engaging in violence.
What you have done is attempt to use an anecdote as a substitute for actual data. You can cherry-pick any story and say “AHA!!”, but the data clearly indicates that the overwhelming majority of the protests were peaceful.

I’m not certain what your point is…so Obama said “Elections have consequences” (which they do). And?
FYI, I don’t engage in “Whataboutism”…further, simply because I criticize one groups actions does not make me a supporter of the other. It is this kind of blind partisanship that is destroying the country.
I am neither a Democrat or a Republican. My beliefs are driven by my core value system, not what others tell me I should stand for. The one thing I most certainly am is 100% Anti-Trump…but that doesn’t make me a Democrat. There is a lot I am critical of the the Obama administration over…

President Trump actually told them to leave the Capitol and go home once the idiots forced their way into the Capitol building. Maybe you didn’t see it because youtube took it down.

October 23, 2015: After repeatedly being interrupted by protesters at a campaign rally in Miami, Trump warned he’ll “be a little more violent” next time when addressing protesters. “See, the first group, I was nice. ‘Oh, take your time.’ The second group, I was pretty nice. The third group, I’ll be a little more violent. And the fourth group, I’ll say get the hell out of here!”
“Big protest in D.C. on January 6th,” Mr. Trump tweeted on Dec. 19, just one of several of his tweets promoting the day. “Be there, will be wild!”
“Maybe he should have been roughed up, because it was absolutely disgusting what he was doing. I have a lot of fans, and they were not happy about it. And this was a very obnoxious guy who was a troublemaker who was looking to make trouble.”
“If you see somebody getting ready to throw a tomato, knock the crap out of them, would you? Seriously. Just knock the hell out of them. I promise you, I will pay for the legal fees. I promise. There won’t be so much of them because the courts agree with us,” he said.
There’s a guy, totally disruptive, throwing punches. We’re not allowed to punch back anymore. I love the old days. You know what they used to do to guys like that when they were in a place like this? They’d be carried out on a stretcher, folks.”
Is that enough or do you need more?

Yeah, he also told them that they were “very special” and that he “loved them”.
So after spreading gasoline amongst the kindling and handing out matches, don’t expect me to give him credit for trying to act like he was the Fire Department.

“You have to show strength”
“When you catch somebody in a fraud, you are allowed to go by very different rules”
“We fight like hell, and if you don’t fight like hell, you’re not going to have a country anymore”
“try and give them the kind of pride and boldness that they need to take back our country”
These are just from his speech before he sent the mob over to the capitol. Obviously he didn’t say “you need to kill those senators” but there is a pretty clear implication that more than just words on signs are going to be used. Let’s not forget that he has spent the last 5 years joking about killing journalists, having police beat up suspects, punching peaceful protestors, etc. And that the whole premise behind the attack on the capitol is false. There has be absolutely zero evidence about widespread voter fraud and it is absolutely dangerous to have a sitting president espouse these falsehoods.

So your going to quote leftist media as your sources. You live in an echo chamber. The mainstream media IS the Democrat party and filter the news events of the day to suit whatever narrative they are pursuing. Anything that doesn’t fit the narrative gets excluded. You could find all this out on your own if you just put in the effort, but I guess your more interested in demonizing and censoring those you disagree with. Try to think for yourself for once. So many here are simply repeating what they heard someone else say.

Vox is the last place I’d pull quotes from or even open an article from for that matter but the quotes are elsewhere too. Don’t be blind to what he’s said.
Anything that are lies are excluded.
There I fixed it for you.
You know what they say… “Truth has a liberal bias”

Whether or not the website is “left leaning” the quotes that he pulled are straight from the horse’s ass. So regardless of where they are printed they are still his words inciting violence. Just like you asked for.

What is your faith in the media’s honesty based on exactly? Have they never been wrong?
It has.
But for the most part, they are right.
Why are you putting your faith on a proven liar and rapist who lies about EVERYTHING about his life, from his “fortune” to crowd sizes…

Uh, no…I am going to quote the president.
Vox didn’t make the quotes up, they just reported it. I can cite any number of different sources that have the exact same quotes. Do you have any references that he did not say those things that are in actual quotes?
Correct…I am repeating what I heard the President say.
