Why was she there breaking the law?
Military service doesn't make one eligible to break the law

She was there, supporting her personal beliefs. Why was George Floyd there, breaking the law?

So you now believe the Flyod... Taylor deaths were justified right. We can mark that position down from you from this point forward. And condemn all those protest that followed. Right.

I mean being a person of color doesn't make one eligible to break the law

So what has your government done to make you want to storm its walls?

Look at the time stamp... 01-06-2021 9:33am ET.
Really this writer must be able to pick all the winner... I mean what prophetic abilities on displayed here. Predicting events hours in advance. Or could this be a case of prior knowledge and poor restraint. You be the judge...

They've given me nothing but worthless presidential candidates whenever I go to exercise my most fundamental democratic right.

It is more true that the people in our country nominate who will be your choices, if you do not agree make your case.

Presidents are WAY overrated.

I find it hard to believe that, in the richest and most powerful country in the world, its citizens "chose" to have either Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton represent them as POTUS in the 2016 elections. I also find it hard to believe that Joe Biden was the "people's choice" in our most recent presidential election. What I do believe is that the American citizens are forced to select the "best of two evils"...and I used to think that this only happened in third-world countries.

One of the most disturbing things is that there are so many people on here seeming to condone what happened yesterday. It will be interesting to see how many agree with what their hero has just said that what happened was 'heinous'. Of course we all know he's lying as he incited it. We've even had people on here saying it was a peaceful protest. It wasn't, these were thugs, some with guns, pipe bombs, vandalising the building, stealing, threatening, attacking press and vandalising their equipment and putting elected officials, police and workers in the building in fear of their lives. Four people are known to have died and it now seems there are reports that a police officer may have died. I can only imagine what would have been said on here if it was Obama who'd said the things Trump has and African Americans who invaded the building. You'd be calling for the death penalty for treason. Still, only a couple of weeks until the deranged lunatic is out of office.

It STARTS with the climbing of walls...but it sometimes leads to more effective methods of citizen dissent. Who knows...the next time it may mean that 70 million people will turn in empty tax returns at tax time. The point is to remind the politicians who the REAL "bosses" are in a democratic country.

I know...you can ONLY IMAGINE.
And I know, you're SO DISTURBED.
What you are is a FAKE and a PHONY. Go back to the UK and try and worm your way back into the EU where you belong.

Let me revise the above. I was a bit too harsh.
You're a FAKE and a PHONY if you claim NOT to understand why people say the things they do on here, and why half the US population agrees with me more than it does you.

Note that i put the word "protesters" in parentheses because they did much more than protest (as did the folks in DC yesterday).
The folks in DC yesterday trespassed, broke windows, and occupied property that wasn't theirs. They also scared the crap out of the folks who did have the right to be in the Capitol.
Lord knows what else they would have done if given the chance.
What do you think would have happened if they had gotten their hands on a Democratic member of the Senate?
If Antifa or BLM had pulled the same stunt half of this board would have called for them to be shot.
Stop the charade ElK

So you can't find a post to back up your claim?
Figures.
