    The protests have been raging for almost 3 months in many of our cities. I haven't been watching this event closely, but it appears to be ongoing with no end in sight. I heard a rumor that the protesters are just trying to help Biden win the election.
    Do any of you believe the protests will end if the Biden / Harris ticket wins the White House?

    He thinks he has control but this Frankenstein's monster has broken his democrat party chains, just look at the car lot owner that bent over and spread his cheeks with a black live matter message on his ad board and they still burned him out of business. Insurance does not cover riots, so he is done.

    Hey BLM thank you for eliminated the last vestiges of white guilt, it does not exist anymore. good job.

    Did White guilt ever benefit African-Americans? Is it possible to feel guilty about a group of people and hate them at the same time?

    Its not supposed to be a federal responsibility to stop people from protesting in cities. Matter of fact if anything they are supposed to send in troops to protect the right of protesters from dogs and bullets and water cannons, like they did down south in Mobile etc.

    If we mean rioters and looters, then those are the words to use. States and cities have the responsibility to deal with such criminal conduct as long as they do not involve federal property.

    Doesn't the President have the power to deal with unrest? Doesn't the buck stop with the President? ( Of course, the current President isn't showing any interest in what is going on in our cities).
    Maybe a man with better leadership qualities (Joe Biden) will be able to broker a peace with the protesters.

    You accuse Trump of wanting to be a dictator...then demand he be a dictator?

    You missed a great speech. If you have Hulu, you can still see it, I think.

    No. Using leadership skills to calm unrest is not being a dictator. Presidents Kennedy and Johnson did it in the 1960s. It's just a matter of knowing how to use your power in a humane and wise way.

    The leaders of the cities with the protesters have placated them, only for their towns and cities to be burned and looted and destroyed. There is no leadership to end this other than to fight back.

    The buck for local or state wide crime and its enforcement rests with the mayors and governors and county chairs. They are in charge of the municipal and state and county officers that are the subject of the overwhelming percent of these violent interactions Its the mayors and governors and legislative bodies that need to take control of this problem. I do not want the federal govt to get involved in local matters. That is exactly Trump's excuse for sending in federal forces into urban areas.

    Do you think hand feeding a crocodile works well when the food runs out? Of course he cant, only a fool thinks otherwise.

    Why would Biden or anyone else want to stop protests. Are protests not legal in America?

    There are many people who desperately want the protests to stop.

    Just because "many people" want protests stopped does not mean the protests should be stopped. If people feel they have something to protest then as Americans they should be able to.

    I think the democrats are in danger of people becoming so addicted to the rush of protesting that they will secretly help re-elect Trump in order to have a reason to continue.

    Biden is afraid to leave his basement, how is he supposed to stop anything? Y'all folks picked a dud, that there are any real expectations from him is laughable...

    You're right, and besides -- why would Biden even WANT to stop all "protests"...?

    Those "protestors", the America-haters like ANTIFA, BLM, NFAC, and other 'woke' scum are the Democrat Party's CONSTITUENCY! These creatures are the very ones Biden needs to win the election! Stop them?! HA! Not even a chance....

    Why would the potential leader of the unfree world want to stop the infiltrators of the peaceful BLM group. He needs those votes to get elected and then use them to wage war from the Delaware Command Center (His newly painted white house basement) on those Trump corruptible supporters.

    Biden can not stop the riots, but he can listen to the peaceful protesters. Try to, you know, try to tackle police officers targeting black people for death.
