The Protest Thread

Post by elliseamos »

I'm tired of the Cops Thread. I think its title furthers the problem.

Let's talk about the current protests here!

I just feel like it's a disservice to the protests to keep talking about them in the cop thread or the trump thread or the Hall of Fame thread.

in honor of the US military being called in against its own population, as an exhibition of the cold black leviathan of RModerator strength, i would love to see this thread merged into the 'Cops are the Worst' or 'Cops are the Wurst' thread without a flake of an explanation or announcement or regret

no

the playoffs must play on

they will unite america

if there were playoffs going on right now, we would all be inside watching slapshots and slam dunks

instead we have taken away the population's jobs, motivation to work, and frivolous means of entertainment

we need more distractions in order to make the serfs return to their complacent ways

Video shows a protest in Buffalo where an SUV drove through a line of cops, hitting at least one.

I'm just gonna leave this here:

"When the students poured into Tienanmen Square, the Chinese government almost blew it. Then they were vicious, they were horrible, but they put it down with strength. That shows you the power of strength. Our country is right now perceived as weak." -Donald Trump, Playboy Magazine, 1990
