It sickened me yesterday to see security personnel—including members of the National Guard—forcibly and violently clear a path through Lafayette Square to accommodate the president’s visit outside St. John’s Church. I have to date been reticent to speak out on issues surrounding President Trump’s leadership, but we are at an inflection point, and the events of the past few weeks have made it impossible to remain silent.

Whatever Trump’s goal in conducting his visit, he laid bare his disdain for the rights of peaceful protest in this country, gave succor to the leaders of other countries who take comfort in our domestic strife, and risked further politicizing the men and women of our armed forces.

That is dumb.

Guard personnel obey orders.

Clearing scum out of the way is a good thing.

It figures johnforbes considers 100% peaceful protesters to be "scum".

There had been no violence in that crowd up to that time.

"...100% peaceful protesters..."

Clown ..you poor gulible wretch...!

That term died the instant the first looter threw the first brick through the first plate glass window..!

That term now only exists in the bias anti-Trump rhetoric of the liberal media...

[Clownkicker]

Dimwit, you need to read the thread before you start blabbering about complete nonsense.

We're talking about the ridiculous Trump photo-op visit to the church, you moron.

There was no violence at that protest until Trump started it.

Just mulling this over, but "Ike Mullen" clearly sounds like a fake name.

Speaking of which, Clowntoker always registers at the Dew Drop Inn under the name "Ben D. Over"...

John, that was a typo. I should have been Admiral Mike Mullen. Of course you knew that, you just were having trouble taking up for the Orange Baboon.

[johnforbes]

Yes, I was just kidding.
