President Trump Walks Out Of White House, Holds Up Bible In Front Of St. John’s Church Amid Protests I have never seen a president do a gesture like this before.



President Donald Trump walked out of the front of the White House and across the street Monday to St. John’s Church, which was set on fire by protesters Sunday night.


https://dailycaller.com/2020/06/01/president-trump-walks-out-white-house-holds-up-bible-st-johns-church/

When Trump came into office the big talk was Russia, Russia, Russia, and he said its not Russia its China we should be worried about. Everyone had many negative comments about this including accusing him of alternately being a puppet of Russia to collaborating with them. But it turns out that China is very much the one to watch and has stolen much of our tech and advantage technology wise. Which it now uses against us to challenge us. So far Trump has been correct on so many things, regardless if you like him or not someone able to see and project outcomes in office is a refreshing change.

Many thanks to our president for putting his foot on the neck of people like the corruption and  leftists and one world governments plans. Like the mayor of Minnesota that ordered a stand down by the police in his state. I believe what we are seeing in these riots and turmoil is the dying of the lefts and one world governments plans, and them, saying we cant breathe.   




    The most fundamental element of the social contract between government and the people is being destroyed.

    That’s the obligation of government to keep its citizens safe. For that, we surrender a portion of of our freedom and wealth to government for the collective good.

The ones that have self serving motives have forgotten that agreement with government and the people. That is job one for them, its not to let rioters loose on the streets.

It would be nice during this time if both parties stopped pointing the finger at one another and worked to derive a solution.

Honestly, this is piss poor leadership from the county, city, state, and federal level all the around.

That would be a great solution, but Trump's ego would never let that happen.  To him, he is the only one with the solution. No one else is smart enough.

Now, in his infinite wisdom, he has declared the protests as 'acts of domestic terror'.  The man doesn't have a clue how to stop this and I don't really think he wants to.  He wants to be a 'war president'.

It's funny replying to you because there are these [/quote] things that appear, yet everything you "quoted" is false.

Trump has been calling for peace and has called out the national guard and has begged the local municipalities to use them (but not where you get your news I guess).  Also, he DID NOT declare the protests "acts of terror".... he labelled antifa a terrorist organization and the chaos they are committing acts of terrorism.  The fires and damage and looting are not acts of protest, except in the democrat world, not the real world.  In the real world they are criminal acts of terror perpetrated by hired terrorists.

There’s a difference between the protester and the criminal rioter. Please be careful as to which you are referring to. The President got it right, he’s not against lawful protests. But the criminals that are killing and destroying must be stopped and it’s obvious that force is the only thing that will stop them.

Should have already happened when it was small but day by day it’s only going to get worse.

The media loves to take The President’s statements about the rioters and apply it to all black protesters. It’s sickening. Let’s not  follow the media and make that same error.

4 police officers shot in St Louis.  A cop run over in NYC.  I saw a cop get beaten while on the ground in another city.

No, Savago, no terrorism here.

Looking forward to a "peaceful" protest coming to your front yard. Have fun.

Now what we need is someone from Canada to come down and straighten all this out. Someone who has all the the answers and can convince all the rioters to go home. Someone who can convince our elected officials who are always at cross purposes with the current administration, to put their constituents interests ahead of their own political futures. Someone who can look into the heart of every police office and know their true personality. Now who could we possibly get to do that????

Unlike the "other Canadian" I certainly don't quote articles from a central hub of fake news...Yahaoo. Obvious biased reporting proves absolutely nothing.
Everything I have seen for the last four years including...Fisa court abuse from mounting declassified evidence of illegal unmaskings of American Citizens by 29 members of Obama's administration including Biden and Susan Rice and James Comey,  spying on Trump's election campaign and once elected and before his inauguration, on Trump's administration. The phony Mueller "Russian Collusion" investigation centered around a proven fake dossier bought and paid for by the Hillary and the DNC and illegal Fisa Court applications on false grounds, including one signed by James Comey another signed by Rod Rosenstein. The attempt by Rod Rosenstein to initiate Trump's removal using article 25 of your constitution.  The phoney impeachment travesty centered on a phone call between Ukraine's President Zelensky and Trump as "evidence" of an illegal Quid Pro Quo...with zero due process, which was immediately quashed by the Senate. Unconstitutional Covid lockdown strategies, almost exclusively in blue states and cities. Now out of State Antifa Participants Planned Chaos funded by Soros and others who want to destabilize the USA...
The obvious unhinged hatred for Trump is not a rational reason to state an opinion.

So as I understand it, you include rioting, looting, burning churches, destroying businesses and such as peaceful protesting?

I consider them acts of domestic terror too. We know how to stop it. Do you?

Domestic Terror to a liberal was the election of Donald J Trump. Just the mere thought of that has created an unusual new syndrome that has unhinged roughly half the population.

I see a lot of white people out there looting and destroying things.  I doubt that they are part of the peaceful protests.  There are always those that will take advantage of situation like the protests to loot and damage things.  They should not take anything away from the quiet protesters, but you guys seem to just lump them in with the protesters.
Us white guys have absolutely no idea how it is to be black.  We have 'white privilege'.  Don't think it exists?  Those white guys that stormed the Michigan state capitol building with rifles to protest having to stay home.  What do you think would have happened if they were black.  They wouldn't have made it down their own street without being shot by police. 
Perhaps if the shoe was on the other foot and we were the ones targeted by black police for sitting around doing nothing.  Or, getting stopped by police because you are white and are driving a nice car.  These protesters are legitimately pissed, but you just see a bunch of black people getting upset over nothing.
There is a video yesterday of two cops that approach a black guy saying that they think that he is someone.  They don't ask him for ID.  They arrest him for doing nothing, put him in handcuffs.  He then tells them to look at his ID.  Turns out that he is an FBI agent.  The look on their faces is priceless.  I am sure heads were rolled the next day.

A Tribute to First Lady Melania Trump 2020

https://youtu.be/5fgp_V79j7I     smitten

She has also stepped up to the plate like Trump and is doing a great job. It kind of takes your mind off the current events for a few minutes.

With that said,

Trump knows already who is responsible for the riots and who are peaceful, he gave the local officials the opportunity to step up to the plate and do the right thing and did not step on their toes.

If he had automatically sent in the military, they would have called him out on that. Especially when they wanted what happened.

But letting each local official take the steps they deem necessary, like he did with Covid allows the world to see the true intent and plans each one had. It shows the failure of some and the victory of others so WE know what each is about.

Trump had the military ready, he did his preparation, all they had to do was ask.

As for the Bishop, I think I know why.

So two officers approach a man that fits a particular description of someone they are looking for, for whatever reason. The man becomes belligerent and agitated when questioned. Had he told them he was an FBI agent from the beginning this would not have gone down the path it did. The agent held back information that the officers could have used to de-escalate this immediately. Hell, the officers were probably set up and someone called in about a black man in a red shirt doing something and the officers saw a black man in a red shirt and did what they were called on to do. Funny how camera's were rolling and no one gave the officers the head's up about the FBI agent.

Us white guys have absolutely no idea how it is to be black.  We have 'white privilege'.  Don't think it exists?  Those white guys that stormed the Michigan state capitol building with rifles to protest having to stay home.  What do you think would have happened if they were black.  They wouldn't have made it down their own street without being shot by police. 


So by your logic, we should be seeing black men piling up in the streets given the actions we are seeing. How many have been mowed down so far? I sincerely wish bleeding hearts like yours would think before posting such garbage. I can handle the garbage but it embarrassing to have a grown man unable to get his head out of his ass.

Here's the thing...every news cycle is focused on SJW gender/race inequity, or the big demon..."white privilege", whatever the hell any of that means...Stick a fork in our individual identities...black white or purple when we never question all the BS marxist pablum that we are spoon fed. The main stream media has been controlling the narrative for far too long. I don't blame those who slump down in front of the flat screen every night and absorb the big steaming pile of BS night after night without questioning it. They are just trying to keep their collective heads above water...no wonder we all just strap on the covid mask(muzzle) and go shopping and accept the long line-ups at the big box mart without a peep. Welcome to your free trial of communism.

Bscrive - Tell me how I have white privilege??
You damn sure do not speak for me. Furthermore, you just lumped me into a group. What does that say about you?
If you would go back and actually read this thread through again  you may understand more about what has been written before just blasting everyone in here and labeling us.

I have said this before and so, I am repeating myself.

What the left does is they label groups/people. 

Once you have a label, you can use that label to cast whatever you want with the label on anyone. 

Its easy and simple and very common.  It matters not if you are or are not what they label you as.  They label is all that is needed. 

When you have nothing else, you use labels.

I see a lot of white people out there looting and destroying things.  I doubt that they are part of the peaceful protests.  There are always those that will take advantage of situation like the protests to loot and damage things.  They should not take anything away from the quiet protesters, but you guys seem to just lump them in with the protesters.
Us white guys have absolutely no idea how it is to be black.  We have 'white privilege'.  Don't think it exists?  Those white guys that stormed the Michigan state capitol building with rifles to protest having to stay home.  What do you think would have happened if they were black.  They wouldn't have made it down their own street without being shot by police.  
Perhaps if the shoe was on the other foot and we were the ones targeted by black police for sitting around doing nothing.  Or, getting stopped by police because you are white and are driving a nice car.  These protesters are legitimately pissed, but you just see a bunch of black people getting upset over nothing.
There is a video yesterday of two cops that approach a black guy saying that they think that he is someone.  They don't ask him for ID.  They arrest him for doing nothing, put him in handcuffs.  He then tells them to look at his ID.  Turns out that he is an FBI agent.  The look on their faces is priceless.  I am sure heads were rolled the next day.

Dude,

I am sorry to inform you, but you haven't the faintest clue.

While I don't intend to excuse the actions of a few cops that shouldn't be cops.

The fact is that to paint all cops with the same brush is no better that to paint all people of color with the same brush.

Just as not all black people are bad, not all cops are bad.

And this is coming from a person who holds a strong distrust of the police.


I worked EMS for 30 years and trust me I have been on the receiving end of racism.

The most stinging moment for me was the time that I was blatantly accused of purposely taking too long (3mins) to respond to the scene of a child struck by a car.

I was directly accused of not responding quickly enough and of not caring because the child was black.

I promise you that I got to the scene as quickly as humanly possible (nobody ever drove an ambulance faster than me).

And I promise you that the child received the best possible care that I could provide.

Yet I was accused of not caring because I was white.

I chose to ignore the unfounded accusations and  provide care for an innocent child to the absolute best of my ability.

So ANYONE who believes that Black people aren't capable of racism hasn't got a clue.



Now to the current issue at hand.

First off as a general rule I DO NOT believe that black people are unfairly singled out and targeted by the police.

I've seen the guy that doesn't have a job of any kind  and yet is driving around in a $60K Cadillac Escalade while wearing another $10k of gold jewelry.

It really shouldn't surprise any one that the cops peg him as a drug dealer.


Do some cops have issues?

Certainly they do.

Are they guilty of racial profiling when they elect to stop the guy above?

NO, they are simply drawing logical conclusions.


In the US people have the right to protest ANYTHING that they want to protest.

Their right to protest ends when they choose to become lawless.

NO-ONE has the right to pillage and burn.

Rioting and looting is punishable by being shot on site.


Maybe it is time for the police to begin doling out this punishment.

Rioters and Looter's are not the same as peaceful protesters and they don't deserve the same rights.

In 2019 police officers fatally shot 1,004 people, most of whom
were armed or otherwise dangerous. African-Americans were about
a quarter of those killed by cops last year (235), a ratio that
has remained stable since 2015. That share of black victims is
less than what the black crime rate would predict, since police
shootings are a function of how often officers encounter armed
and violent suspects. In 2018, the latest year for which such
data have been published, African-Americans made up 53% of known
homicide offenders in the U.S. and commit about 60% of robberies,
though they are 13% of the population.

...a police officer is 18½ times more likely to be killed by a
black male than an unarmed black male is to be killed by a police officer...
