    It was the riots that most people I know of had problems with. The violence, the destruction of property (500 million dollars in Minneapolis alone, which is a lot), Secoriea Turner, an 8 year old little girl who was shot to death during protests for the crime of her parents trying to turn the car around in a Wendy’s parking lot. And the opportunistic looting done in the name of the “protests” and defended in the establishment media (how many news and opinion shows had that piece of garbage who wrote the book “In defense of looting” on?)

    On the other hand, I was uncharitable in both my examples. Do you think the Canadian truckers were trying to secretly clone Hitler?

      I never said anything about the truckers and you’re making yourself sound insane. Try to stay focused.

      Also, the establishment media largely also demonized protesters, just not nearly as much as Faux News did.

        In the same post you’re whining about, I said that the trucker protesters were trying to secretly clone Hitler. Apparently you missed that there was all kinds of hyperbole.
