    It’s as if these people don’t remember the riots that happened to earn equality.

        And a president who wants to shoot those protestors, and a federal police, answerable to no one, who can definitely do it. I’m giving it a year before we see at least one protest met with overwhelming lethal force.

      The false narrative that basic rights were earned through “civil debate” has been parroted by right wing talking heads for so long.

      Most people are uninformed, and have an impression that rights just kind of happened via peaceful protests or debates, either due to their own ignorance or learning a very whitewashed version of history.
