    Oops! Nothing like bullying to try to get one's way. Well, we've used it in our foreign policy, so why not suffer it domestically as well.

    Police used non-lethal weapons to disperse a crowd of protesters in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where US President Donald Trump held a campaign event. BLM activists, meanwhile, threatened Trump supporters with violence.

    Protesters gathered downtown during and after Trump’s speech. Though the demonstrations were largely peaceful, police occasionally fired pepper balls to control the crowd.

    Loud arguments broke out between Black Lives Matter activists and Trump supporters. Some protesters threatened to 'beat up' their opponents, and told them to 'go away.'

    From your link:

    "RT is an autonomous, non-profit organization that is publicly financed from the budget of the Russian Federation."

    So, you're getting this information from a Russian state-sponsored source. I call BOGUS.

    I watched the crowds filing out after this pathetic excuse for a rally. There were threats of violence on both sides.

    Rule one in night battles: Tracers go both ways.

    Then you don't think there should be an opposing view to the one given us by the corporate owned media, especially considering they are owned by the same people, and give the same spin. But isn't that brainwashing?

    Anyway, why were there so many protesters there, and why were they so intent on hindering a political candidate from speaking? Isn't that fascism? The city of Tulsa and the police had a lot problems because of them.

    I think all Trump rallies have been graced by raucous protesters. Same old, same old.

    I said in another post that the protests will backfire, and create an animosity towards blacks that didn't exist before. What they are doing is very foolish, and frankly I don't know if it can be undone.

    You're right, it's essential to get as much information from as wide a variety of sources as possible rather than relying in the same, stale Western MSM outlets.
    Every source has a bias and anyone with critical thinking ability can factor that bias into the message in order to form their own opinion.

    Read as much as possible and think for yourself.

    Re:
    The gaggle of "protesters" we see so frequently cease to be protesters when they threaten life, limb and property. At that point they become a malevolent and deadly threat and should be dealt with as such.

    The UGA Teaching Assistant is an ass. He's creating more problems.

    As for your assertion about the protests, however, we are already seeing positive change coming from them. George Floyd's killers were only fired. Now they are charged with differing levels of murder. The Brooks murder is being charged as such. These two events, alone, would not have occurred if there wasn't a protest going on...

    And I know there are people who will say that it is only appeasement, or that these are not legitimate charges and these poor police officers are a victim of the popular media today. And you are welcome to your opinion. I choose to believe that we are seeing positive change as a result of the protests (note - not riots or looting).

    I am at peace with anyone who respects the freedom and liberty of others, and at war with anyone who does not, skin color plays no role the outlook.

    I prefer sources with reputations for accurate reporting and only mild bias, if any. Try the "Least Biased" menu option on the following site:

    https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/

    Most voters are slightly left-leaning centrists, including a majority of non-affiliated independents.

    Positive! What's positive about exerting pressure on the police and government to do the bidding of the protesters/anarchists? Wouldn't that be more in tune with a lynching than a democracy?

    Look, this doesn't mean I don't find fault with the police, and the way they have been acting towards minorities these past years. But that will all be thrown under the rug because of groups like Antifa and BLM. We might end up in a civil war.

    So the liberal media created a fact check site to give themselves credibility. Unbelievable!

    HEE HAW!
    The media's bought
    and on our side,
    to help us hide
    our 'franken' pride,

    of lies, deceits, illicit gain,
    hypocrisy and willful shame
    of nation; that you all hold dear
    while we could care
    less - Jeannette

    Jeannette, you are playing the Authoritarian-Conservative playbook.

    My advice to the good people of Seattle is get out and give them the city. The area is overdue for a catastrophic tsunami. No point staying and fighting for your city. It's doomed one way or the other.

    This is what happened in Seattle when 2 men were shot, and the police tried to enter the area and get them to hospitals.

    Where are the water canons?? Hose them down, cool them off!! Then bring in the pizza and doughnut wagon and serve them free food. After that tell them via loudspeaker to go home and get a good night's sleep. Then offer to meet with them the next day at such and such a time. The Mayor, the police chief, the governor and Mr. Trump will be there to listen and offer help where ever possible and reasonable. If they still won't listen and keep rioting, use tear gas and tasers.
    Gosh, I should be the police chief!! :megaphone: free...:hug: !!

    Jeannette, it's on the news, and he had several hundred supporters show up.

    Scarlet Witch, America's election has beset with violence for 200 years and more.

    No one is going to beat up the sissy Trump supporters.

    As a saying in my country tells ... "How you shout into a cave, it comes back the same as echo"!
    In other words ... times are over when Trump and his fans / supportes and their hate and fake news spreading are obviously not further accepeted. Insteed demonizing the protestors, you should better handle the spreading of lies done by Trump.

    And honestly ... I am really wondering how you have changend in matter of Trump your opnion for 180° in meantime! Not long ago you was rumling like mad against him when he accuses Assad (and Russia) to have used poison gas ... as well you were major upset when he ordered a mass bombardment with Tomahawks in Syria. But now ... suddenly the big Trump supporter? Amazing ...

    thats the point ... you bash on the casual media to be BS at least, but to back your claims, you use the same sort of bad media of the other side Jeannette!
    RT is Russian state media ... s nothing more as a camouflage Russian porpaganda media at least... so you they are not doing all these evil things you accuse the casual media? Seriously?

    Honestly, I used RT too ... but only as 1 source and after double checking who reports it too ... aside point of content and how with what remarks reported, which is also important ... but not done by you.

    We seem to have turned a corner and the responsible left to responsible right no longer tolerate Trump's tale telling.

    RT is the only true media in the United States. Even the president of the United States called the American media - "fake news"

    Trump calls those who repeat his own words back to him "fake news."

    If Russian state sponsored media is who you trust, please move to Russia and take at least one other Trumpster with you.

    As usual ... if it is Russian then it could only be good and is never ever any sort of bad ... but if not Russian and not fitting your opinion, then it is bad and fake news media.

    Come on ... isn't it slowly time to give up the role of the Pro Russian Propaganda troll and to face some truth for you?

    It certainly is if you want a Russian bias to your media.
