You're not supposed to mention those. They don't exist. Because Trump said so and Trump never lies.

Yes, sorry, I'll correct myself. 37 indictments. From the article you linked:

Mueller and his team filed charges against 37 defendants, secured seven guilty pleas and one conviction at trial. Six former associates and advisors of President Trump were among those charged. The case of Trump’s former deputy campaign chairman Rick Gates was transferred Saturday from the special counsel’s office to federal prosecutors in Washington.

He lied about how serious it was and failed to take action to prevent COVID-19 from entering in the US.

His attitude of "it's a hoax" "it's just the flu" "it will go away by April" is not based in reality.

90,000 people are dead.

Oh and I hope you enjoyed his lies about lowering a percentage of the debt within 10 years. Its been nearly half of the alloted time and Trump added 3 trillion to the US debt.

How is armed people at Capitol buildings in different states threatening people and saying theyll use their guns allowed in the US? Why is that ok?

Is it cause they're white. Imagine a crowd of black people with guns at Capitol, theyd call in the army or something.

I couldn't decide between these two:

Turns out we still don't trust the Irish.

-or-

In America, first you get the potatoes.

Then you get the money.

Then you get the women.
"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.

It's not true though?

White people armed with guns and Confederacy flags threatening to kill legislators and governors and such are Patriots using 2nd amendment right. Even the Bundy Bros. taking over a federal building. Slap on the wrist.

Being a colored person is immediately going to make you suspect and not given that kind of leverage in the media or in society. I can only imagine Muslim Americans doing same thing and getting killed plus hate attacks against them. Its hypothetical but not out of question to consider the differences between how police, media and government acts towards armed white people and how California acted to the Black Panthers in their Capitol back in 60s and would react to armed people of color.

Thats a lot of assumptions. You mentioned the guard being shot at a dollar store after the talk of armed black people being shot, and all I pointed out was he wasn't killed because he was a black man with a gun, because his assailant was a black man too.

I love how your comparing armed black people in the 60s to armed white ppl now, as if nothing has changed. My man guess how many black people were shot dead during the Baltimore riot? Give up? Zero. None. Because the police in this country ain't brazen enough to shoot multiple people my guy, not even in a corrupt shithole Baltimore. The police didn't shoot the armed white confederates because they would have gotten torn to shreads by a hail of automatic weapon fire. They didn't wanna start a fight they were gonna die in when it wasn't getting violent yet. You're simplifying this so horribly it isn't even funny.

Refer back to the video I sent you. I see three armed black men and none of them left in a body bag.

It's because in America, the constitution serves to protect the people from the government, not the government from the people.

Is it cause they're white. Imagine a crowd of black people with guns at Capitol, theyd call in the army or something.

As RFS established, it's less "le white man has arrived" and more "a crowd of people with guns who aren't actually being violent is a hornet's nest we don't want to poke". Perhaps the threshold for action would be a bit lower, but they wouldn't call the tanks in at first sight.
