šŸŒŽ Over the last several weeks, months perhaps, I've watched how casually the word "fatigue" is being tossed around. And now, trending on X, "riot."

What's rich this morning is seeing the results of how casually "J6th" has been tossed around.

I'm left wondering how many innocent bystanders, just watching, are in jail?

Personally, I can't say this "fatigues" me. When folks burnt and looted places I like to visit, to eat, I was done." That was five years ago. Done, as in I don't think I would think twice stopping this.

 
The only thing that will stop the insurrections will eventually come down to armed citizens... when they start dropping some of these people for destroying their homes and Hometowns.. The police have turned into nothing but cowards and enablers by letting them burn their cities to the ground...The police should have killed many of these people years ago... their little sticks shields and gas do nothing but excite these people.. unfortunately now a lot of your police are just activist like the rioters... most of the trouble from the police department comes within , from these "crusaders"..

What I find funny about things is J6 wasnā€™t a riot or anything more than a tour, but this mostly peaceful protest is in need of national guard and maybe ā€œthe Marinesā€ā€¦..funny how it depends whoā€™s in office on how things are categorized

I see a difference in purposefully burning property. I see a difference in foreign nationals waving foreign flags in a protest about people being sent back to those very countries. (Personally, I don't buy the dollar amount cited for damages J6 knowing how over inflated everything is in DC. Hypothetically, the $2000 dollar damaged chair that's priced at $40 at Ashley Furniture: same chair.)

There's a legitimate point here. The government had TSA employees investigating people who were in DC that day. Here we have the state government doing what? We have people screaming "due process" for illegal immigrants and the same wasn't afforded to those on J6.

From where I stand I don't think I could stand idly and just watch folks attack LEO's: no matter what branch. I don't hang out with law enforcement folks. It's not that I don't like them. They have their job; let 'em do it.

The dichotomy. On J6 there were people "protesting" that were unhinged. There were also people there fully cooperating with the government officials and offering no threat. Yet, they were looped in together. Here we have fires and vandalism raging and these events are, once again, tagged as "peaceful protest." We're seeing the violence in these "peaceful demonstrations."

(While I don't know the validity, I find it ironic I'm seeing pictures of pallets of cinder blocks being dropped off in the LA area. Are they repeats of the same images from 2020? Or, the same thing happening again?)

I know this is somewhat petty but I'll say it again. I was DONE the day they destroyed the Hall's downtown (along with some other nice eateries.) In my book, that's not "free speech" any longer. It wasn't, and isn't, speech. It's uncivilized destruction. Yet another example of how "multiculturalism societies" don't work in the vast majority of situations.

A riot is a riot, I donā€™t care what side is doing the rioting. I was VERY critical of the BLM riots that took place after George Floyd, although where I worked then things didnā€™t get Minneapolis bad things still got very hairy, the city I work in now things were rowdy, but not to the level of rioting, but the protests were nuts (city is VERY left wing, socialist, etc) as Iā€™ve been told. My point is J6 was just as bad minus burning shit.

I donā€™t lump everybody that was there J6 together, the ones that stayed outside I donā€™t lump them into the ones that were rioting and were no different than the BLM rioters.

We have that in common, I, too donā€™t hang with LEOs when Iā€™m off duty, itā€™s my job not who I am you know? Iā€™m not a fan of people attacking cops obviously, but I donā€™t like the people on J6 that were rioting and attacking cops anymore than I do the BLM rioters that were attacking cops.

This encapsulates the theme here. It's really easy to see how people are fatigued from seeing things they don't like: no matter who it's against. Change the guy throwing bricks at the vehicles to a rowdy teen throwing things arbitrarily at vehicles. Who wouldn't dislike that? Who wouldn't say, "Uh, nope. That ain't happening."

One of the higher income streams found on social media platforms are videos featuring people acting out; with LEO. Steve Inman is making a killing right now with vid's that are "FAFO."

I'm in the 7-11 WAY too much. So much everyone in the place knows me by name (except the food area; I don't eat that shit.) I see or hear about people acting out several times a week. It's a "been there, seen that." The fatigue on that side of the counter is real. (It's their job, geez.) The fatigue on our side of the counter? I'm of the opinion it's become a real thing.

After I wrote that I fell into a bit of a rabbit hole thinking about how that is in my life. I realized, we really don't talk about our work (me and my friends.) A VARIETY of different walks in life and we seldom discuss them. One guy, who is in upper management of a development company (neighborhoods) where we talk about how homes are constructed and new amenities. That's it.

I had four and five people over yesterday that hung out for several hours. We were just sitting outside on the patio, in the shade (it was HOT,) chatting. I have no idea about what this morning. Nothing sticks out but it wasn't a lack of conversation.

'bout like here in some ways ...

One of the biggest things we run into is Sovereign folks and 99% of them have their phone cameras on looking for YouTube or Tik Tok views.

My friend group and I rarely talk work, we have the last week and half-two weeks, but other than that we donā€™t. One is a defense attorney, one is a construction superintendent, one is a firefighter, one is a software engineer, and my girlfriend works in the judicial system, but on the court side of things.

I understand the ā€œbout like here sometimesā€

One of my friends "husband" is a 1%'er. No if, and's , or but's. Hell, I pegged him on it before he came out of the "proverbial closet." The funny thing about him is he wouldn't get involved in any of this stuff until it involved "his." Me. Mine. Ours. He'd be there.

He carries a flip phone. It's not a burner. It's just simple.

Most of the Sovereign folks strike me as that: just want to live simply. I respect the 'leave me the hell alone' groups ... to an extent.
 
This has always been the plan for the Democrat party...They are trying to start a civil war in this country... One party rule...The Democrat senators, governors and representatives should be locked up for sedition.. especially if they're calling for calling for "nationwide protest" in their official capacity... the only thing they should be calling for is law and order... they're going to get a lot of people on both sides killed... people are fed up with these "protest"... They're also fed up with the ineffectiveness of the police to stop them... people will soon start taking matters into their own hands..

Thereā€™s nothing against the law about protesting, so officials calling for a ā€œnationwide protestā€ is well within citizenā€™s rights. Nobody called for riots.

What you are seeing now is violent!... and the moronic Democrats are calling it peaceful.. and it's against the law when they tell them to take their asses home and they stay around burning shit and throwing rocks... officers are allowing themselves to get seriously injured and doing nothing about it...Try that shit where I'm from they better have their affairs in order..

In my opinion you need to stop ascribing this to a party. It's not. It's a sect of a party. While publicized, it likely doesn't represent a majority.
