Yes.

Isn't it utterly amazing that there is zero coverage of the business owners and the residents in the area??

Absolutely no question where the politicians and media priorities are.

Brazen, biased, selective coverage of the real news in the area.

Outright ignoring the majority presence.

Sad especially when you think about the businesses which will vote with their feet and leave taking jobs with them.

From your comment I can only presume you're ok with civil disorder, with "protestors" who morph into rioters during the demonstration etc. Maybe I'm wrong and you'd have no issue if they did that in front of your house??

My only criticism is the government still has not taken the gloves off in dealing with communist rioters. Here's hoping they step up to the plate ...

Sad that we have learned nothing from Italy and Germany of the 1920s and 1930s, and the rise of authoritarianism in modern day Europe.

So what if they were not invited. They are protecting US Government property because of ineffective untrained local governments lack of will or deliberate attempt to ruin our country. Why not go to other cities to protect federal property?

The last paragraph is a figment of imagination being spread to foment more disruption.
