"launched fireworks at the building and set fires all around the inside of the barrier"

Someone should ask their Moms about this, as we know how the proggies feel:

"Destroying property, which can be replaced, is not violence."
"The fatal flaw of all revolutionaries is that they know how to tear things down but don't have a f**king clue about how to build anything."

I think its more: The building does not have more rights than the people expressing themselves.

Does that even qualify as property damage? I guess they could've broken a window or scorched the blacktop.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

I for one would like to congratulate the federal government on taking what was a small spattering of agitators spray painting walls...and escalating it into a community response that numbers in the thousands. I commend them for not only *failing to stop* the agitators, but remarkably emboldening them with community support. What could have been a small scale problem involving isolated groups of purists now involves moms and dads and the mayor and the world.

Heck of a job. This clearly was the smartest response. You sure look tough, and not at all like every other wimpy bully wannabe who gets publicly owned.

You tell me if this looks like something the building owners should be concerned about:




That's the federal courthouse BTW.

Somebody asked why the cops don't quit, but I think they are enjoying the fighting as much as the rioters.

Yes, conservative gun owners are going to start shooting police officers on behalf of Marxist revolutionaries. That’s a really well thought out meme.
