When all this is over, every single Trump enabler needs to be disbarred or otherwise have their professional credentials permanently revoked
Then go do something about it? Why don't you go carry out the violence that needs to be done instead of playing internet badass and trying to goad other people into doing it? You're no different then the rednecks I overhear at the gas station who want to shoot Joe Biden.
EDIT: After some thought, I want to add that you're not really paying attention to what Trump is doing, or you're an agitator.
Trump REALLY wants violence. He wants it so bad it hurts. Everything he's been doing - tearing down the inner workings of the government, destroying our economy, our relationships with other countries, the meager, if existent at all social safety nets, abducting people off the street, he's trying to push people to the breaking point. He wants us violent and scared. From the assassination attempt on the campaign trail to the June 14th protests, he looks for any excuse to play the victim. Hell, look at the LA protests! He was so eager to crack skulls, he jumped the gun and commandeered California's national guard and the Marines before anything of substance really happened. By the time Saturday rolled around, he already played his hand and couldn't cry "insurrection!" like he was trying to do a few days earlier. Instead he had to let it happen and sulk in his shitty impotent parade. He looked powerless and weak, probably the biggest blow to his ego yet. Peaceful protest is working. We're proving that Trump has no mandate, has no interest in anyone but himself, and we're not going to take it anymore. It's getting too big to ignore and sweep under the rug. And the best part is, that he can't declare an "emergency" and just take power. He may still try, but it will look far less legitimate than if he were to do so while people are burning the streets
The whole point of resisting fascism is not giving them what they want.
They want to be war heros.
How about jailed, at least?
I mean, well, after a review.
Oh sure. Everyone deserves the trial that they didn't wanted to give to others because we are better than them, we WILL give them the rights they denied to others
lol that would be nice
