I was listening to Tim Pool on JRE, it was the episode Pool was giving it to these Twitter fucks in studio, he said and agreed with some prominent such and such who said there’s a 90% probability of another civil war in our lifetime.

I’m thinking the person is correct.

I used to laugh at people who said that but I agree. It will happen sooner rather than later. One side is pushing, the other side is taking it. As soon as they push back, the shit is going to hit the fan.

Why is protesting in the middle of a damn highway a thing?
Because these Dem Governor's and Mayors let it keep going trying to bait Trump into doing something

I think it has a deeper motivation, I seem to recall MLK marching across a bridge** back in the day and I'm guessing its harkening back to that concept. There is a local politician who used to protest in the middle of the streets 20+ years ago, so this isn't a new thing exclusive to Trump.

** decided to finally get off my lazy ass and google it, it was the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Alabama. The consensus via Google seems to be blocking highways draws attention and back in the day these highways were considered to be a tool to achieve segregation so blocking the bridge was a physical act of protest against segregation as well as being an act that draws attention to the cause

So, one group can exercise their first amendment right in painting the street but the other can't for painting over it? How does that work?

This was them basically having a block party just dancing in the middle of the night in a very dark part of the highway. I guarantee these idiots didn't have some deeper meaning behind this.

I'm sure many didn't but what I posted is the accurate answer to my question, just because a bunch of dumb-ass sheep don't know why they're protesting partying on a bridge, doesnt negate the reason why protesting on bridges started in the first place, which was my question

Ok fair enough, them breaking out random peoples windows and dragging them from their cars means Reginald Denny rule applies now though

I certainly understand why someone would feel the need to apply that rule, I hope you (and everyone else) never has to, stay safe out there amigo

what was?
Charging those people with a hate crime for doing exactly what was done by whoever.

Someone painted the street with that hate symbol in protest, these people decided to paint over it in protest.

I really wish people would stop the stupid shit on both sides and go home or to work, but this whole thing is a publicity stunt. Those charges will never go anywhere.

It's nice to see they are finally arresting the rioters, I just hope they aren't releasing them right back out like Seattle and NY
