But Seriously...

How does everyone think this is going to end? It seems the options are either the protesters lose steam and this fizzles out or it continues to escalate until someone is going to bring a gun to either attack someone or defend themselves. If the latter happens, what then? It's one thing to have "protests" that destroy property, it's another to have sides firing at each other.

 

That already happened at the last Milo event. I'm having trouble finding a source that isn't one of "Trump supporter guns down peaceful protestor in cold blood" or "Heroic Milo centipede defends himself against vicious mob," but the shooting's actual occurrence isn't disputed and is a google search away.

 

As far as I've been able to figure out, it was one protester that shot another protester thinking he was a white supremacist.

What I've seen come out since then is that the shooter was a Milo fan looking to get him to sign a MAGA hat to replace one he had lost previously.

 

I read something similar, but that the shooting was in justified self defence.

Isn't this fun? Three different stories already. No clue which one is the truth.

Oh, and one arrest apparently at Berkeley. Real crack security work there. Now all the young anarchists can skate scot-free and go back to Tweeter's dad's lake house for a sick kegger.

 

Gee....if only someone had thought to take pictures.

 

I'd like to know how shit like this happens without a drum solo of nightsticks happening ten seconds later:



...revolting cowardice. As was said earlier: you paid for the extra security, where the hell are they? Pictures don't help that much when all the goons are masked.

 

There's a pretty simple way around that. I believe the police did give the crowd an order to disperse when things started getting ugly. So charge anyone that can be identified being there after the order with accessory to riot. They truly might not have been doing anything, but think how easy it would've been for police to quell the troublemakers if the 1000 or so people that were just standing around actually left when they were told to.

 

I saw that too. I also saw in another clip a tiny teenage girl get a pole smashed over her head, then pepper-sprayed when she defended herself. She was defending the perimeter barrier.

 

If anyone's interested, ANTIFA is protesting Gavin McInnes at NYU. I'm sure they're full of piss and vinegar after what their brethren accomplished last night.

 

Christ. That guy is an even bigger fake actor than Milo. He used to be a fucking VICE reporter.

This is like rioting because your favourite pro wrestler lost the title.

 

Am I the only one who can't be bothered to give a shit about this antifa/alt-right spat? Two groups of shit people go looking for trouble and they find it.

 

Apparently during Berkeley riot, Jake Shields stepped in and helped rescue a few of the people getting beat by the mob.

 

That's awfully good company to have in such an awful moment. That guy went the distance with GSP.

He's also very good at staying the obvious: "I think parts of the left and the right have gone crazy."

That's pretty much it, yeah.

So, this letter was sent to Obama and part of the court order was that it wasn't to be made public until one month after Obama left office. All of that is really immaterial, the important part is what this letter contains. He is basically stating what we have all long suspected the reasoning behind 9/11 was: American imperialistic behavior in the Middle East.

KSM asks a very important question:

This is what blow back looks like.

 

If anyone ever doubted how much that part of the world is obsessed with Jews and Israel, there should be no doubt now.

 

Sorry to double post, but here's a video of comedians with Kumail from Silicon Valley. He talks a little about what his upbringing is like in Pakistan. At around 14 minutes, is the important area I'm talking about.

 

This is probably more a WDT thing just because of the sheer stupidity (and lack of everyone politicizing it), but:

Men walk into police station with body armor, tactical vests, loaded guns to protest open carry, surprisingly don't get shot
