So many WRONG statements in your message. Head in the sand, LAUGHABLE (but sad)

in LA, there is no riot. Here's examples that some media may be failing to report

< Rioters bringing bricks, rocks and concrete blocks to throw at police & their vehicles

< When those projectiles run out, hammering concrete chucks off of curbs & pavements to throw

< Throwing metal objects from overpasses to damage vehicles below.

< Such objects include metal traffic signs and their poles. Also street lamp support fixtures were torn apart and thrown.

< Using skate boards to smash windows on buildings

< Bringing molotov cocktails and other flammables to start and feed fires

< Moving dumpsters onto roads, setting them afire

< Burning vehicles and encouraging crowds to gather to watch the blazes.

< Cops chasing and tackling looters as they rum from buildings

< On and on.

Media and some folks are in denial that there's riots happening -- they need to take heed. When there's a gathering of folks watching these events happening, they are contributing to the riot by refusing to follow police orders to leave the area. They're contributing to the lawlessness !!

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where:
History tells us that many presidents have a number of times activated the military, and sent troops into various states. Thus folks should not become confused by media and Dem claims that Trump's actions for L.A. are unusual, or are illegal. Such false claims should be ignored.

NONE of you "examples" are analogous to the current protests happening in LA. And you know that.

And, with the possible exception of the Civil War, no active military was deployed in any of your "examples."

This is a show of force by Trump. A sign of things to come. A way for him to intimidate citizens and those who appose his policies.

Trump has already stated that any protests related to his massive, wasteful ($150,000,000+) Kim Jung Un* style, birthday parade, will be met by extreme force.

Does this sound like someone who wants to unite the country? No. It is someone who demands that all citizens march in lock-step with the project 2025 policies of the Heritage Foundation.

And in LA, there is no riot. Protesters are voluntarily being arrested. This is what has long been known as non-violent civil disobedience (ala-MLK}. There are those who will use the opportunity be destructive, but those are a small minority and they are not part of the protest.

* Apparently not the current Kim, but the father and grandfather...

Since taking power in late 2011, Kim, the third generation of his family to rule North Korea, is believed to have established an absolute leadership similar to his predecessors. But his birthday has yet to be officially celebrated, unlike his late father Kim Jong Il and grandfather Kim Il Sung. Their birthdays are two of the North’s biggest holidays and are marked with great fanfare, loyalty campaigns and sometimes massive military parades.
