Mostly Peaceful Protesters.

Mostly Peaceful Protesters....

Just what the media always says, until the protester is carrying a pistol, pepper spray, a bayonet, multiple high capacity pistol magazines as well as assault rifle magazines.

And a Democrat.

Obviously, just a good guy who didn't understand the law requiring you have a concealed carry permit.

Other attendees of the protest, which took place along High Street in West Chester, notified nearby officers that a man was walking near the rally while carrying a gun, the affidavit said.

When the officers stopped ***** and asked if he was armed, he “was hesitant to answer,” according to the affidavit. Police pressed him about the empty holster on his left hip, and ***** later admitted he had tucked the gun into his clothing.

While searching *****, investigators also found three additional loaded magazines for his handgun, six loaded assault rifle magazines, an M9 bayonet, pepper spray, a pocket knife, a ski mask and gloves, the affidavit said.

***** is scheduled to appear for a preliminary hearing on July 15.

Seems like you found the bad apple in a sea that was mostly peaceful protestors.

I'll be sure to follow the case and see where it goes. Very glad he kept his stupidity to a level where the only consequences are his

There were over 5 million protesters in the streets of the United States on Saturday, exercising their First Amendment rights. It's part of what makes America great.

Of course there's going to be a couple knuckleheads, but it was basically a rounding error away from zero. But go ahead and spotlight the 10 or so, out of 5 million, if you think it helps your narrative.

I'm sure he was the only one.....

He's also now a criminal, and a moron.

He could have gotten a carry permit and been legal.

But that too reinforces my beliefs in the level of intelligence on the left.

CNN Reports Peaceful Night In L.A. As Majority Of Cars Not On Fire

Jun 11, 2025 · BabylonBee.com

U.S. — CNN reported another peaceful night in Los Angeles, as the overwhelming majority of cars in the city were not currently on fire.

Additionally, the network reported that most police officers had not had bricks thrown at them, most federal agents had not been shot at, and most of the stores in the city had not been looted.

"It's another quiet night in L.A.," reported anchor Wolf Blitzer. "As you can see, the majority of cars in the city are not burning to ashes, and most people have not been assaulted or murdered. Only a very small percentage of buildings have been broken into and had everything stolen by armed mobs. President Trump's characterization of the unrest and violence in L.A. is way overblown."

CNN reporters then traveled to a suburb of L.A. where no violence was reported, proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that the city was under control. "We interviewed two random guys on the street in this wealthy neighborhood, and neither of them have seen any cars on fire," said journalist Daisy Raleigh. "Clearly, the Trump administration is lying about what is really happening on the ground in L.A."

At publishing time, the National Guard had stated that all was indeed peaceful as most CNN journalists had not been shot with non-lethal rounds.

Anyone who knows L.A. knows the MAGA talking points are bullshit. The entire situation was confined to a dozen or so square blocks of downtown. The overwhelming percentage of protesters were 100% peaceful.

A few rocks were thrown, and suddenly MAGA thinks the entire city is a fiery hellscape. Lol. Of course they believe it too, because they'll never visit L.A. anyway.

Los Angeles might as well be on Mars for these zero-curiosity, no-travel dipshits.

Thanks for putting it all into perspective, Wolf.

Except I've lived in LA, have you?

One car ablaze, one store looted, one rock thrown - is one too many. Especially if it's your car, your store, or your head.

[Devo]

Well, the guy is back in the news today, very much more peaceful.

A man who brought a fully loaded gun, several magazines, knives and more to a No Kings rally in West Chester over the weekend also had a pipe bomb in his home, police said.

Your non violent attendee also had pipe bombs.

Fear mongering by the state is no reason to give up your rights and freedoms.

Don’t let Ol Schitzenpants use this ginned up narrative to justify ignoring the law and norms that govern our country.

I'm perusing the US Constitution now.

Where do I find the provision that enshrines my right and freedom to loot and burn, shut down major freeways, and toss rocks and bottles at law enforcement?

Or, allow you to enter the country illegally, wave Mexican flags and burn American flags. Yeah, you can actually do those things if you’re a citizen of this country. Not if you’re here illegally.

Neither of which is an excuse to federalize the national guard or to send in the marines. By allowing or supporting this action you are giving up your rights and freedoms to the government. Trump should not and does not have the authority to call out the military to put down legitimate protest.
