One man’s riot is another man’s mostly peaceful protest

 

Corporate media once again shows its bias. You would have thought having been burned by Russian collusion, Hunter’s laptop, the mental competence of FJB, and the origins and management of Covid, they would be more suspect.  Once again, they push the narrative of “mostly peaceful protests.”

Here is my favorite:

LA news anchor claims people are having ‘fun’ watching cars burn, riots ‘relatively peaceful’

Who hasn’t had fun watching a car fire? No mention of how the fire started. Next, Gavin Newsom will be demanding a federal subsidy for the marshmallows to roast at the car fires.

The one thing that really irritates me in this debate is that the corporate media never distinguishes between legal and illegal immigration

    I keep hoping someone will insist (perhaps with force) that anchor contribute his car to the fun, since he considers it such a fine activity.

    The court backlog may be considerable, given how all those federal district judges are busy being President of the United States at present. We’ll probably be able to start arraigning the accused in a couple of years.

    @glennamurgis Do you find any irony in the fact that in complaining about “corporate media,” you link to a Fox News article reprinted on a web portal owned by Microsoft?

    Who hasn’t had fun watching a car fire.

    Have you ever been on High Street in Columbus after Ohio State beats Michigan?

    Do you think Media is covering properly? Other than Fox, who is doing a good job on the immigration issue. During FJB administration they ignored the border until DeSantis and Abbot started busing illegal aliens to Sancturary Cities in the north.  When was the last time they did not take the default democratic position. It was only a few month ago they were trying to convince us of “Cheap Fakes” of FJB

    Here is another thing that does not make sense

    The people waving Mexican flags are complaining about “European Settlers” – Mexico was colonized by Spain – which is located in Europe when I last looked at the map.

    The demographic difference between Mexico and the US as explained to me by a first generation legal immigrant from Mexico is that the conquistadors focused on integrating/exploiting the local population into the economy and the Church. So 90% of Mexicans have Indian blood and identify to some degree with that heritage, and the “European settlers” narrative has some traction. I will note that this came ironically from a man that left that society for a European-descended majority country.

    Some of the J6 people, eg the pipe bomber and the instigators and the one’s that enabled the riot, were never investigated or punished.   We should do differently this time.  We should focus on the people that caused and funded the riot..

    These riots, and the rioters flaunting Mexican flags, are not about ICE, they are pushing their revanchist ideology, the drive to reacquire territorial losses previously sustained.

    That is, the radicals funding and behind these riots want all of California, New Mexico, and Arizona to be reconstituted as part of Mexico. Why else would Mexico’s president publicly encourage the rioters?

    If their conquest were to succeed, it would be the US citizens trapped in those areas who would thereby be transformed into the “illegals.” That is their goal. 

    Change my mind.

    I like the idea of interracial marriage as opposed to Civil War. But shouldn’t that ideology lend Latinos to assimilate into mainstream American culture?

    Only the non violent people who’s crime was strolling through a Federal building.

    And after they spend years in solitary.

    So sure. eventually. And the illegals among the3m get deported.
