Trump threatened to send in the military and have them open fire.

There is a video of cops being ran over with a car and videos prior of cops running protestors over with a car.

If cops or the military open fire, protestors will arm and open fire back.

Nah, 2ndAmendment was trending on Twitter and instead of protestors supporting arming themselves, it was all gotchas that right wing gun owners are LARPers

Yeah but the protestors will die. And then it will happen again and again and again. And what happens to the cops who dont shoot innocents, people in the middle or outside of the political spectrum, and the peaceful protestors? I dont see this being a north vs south type situation with so many different ideologies, divided as the main two parties may be.

If they gun down protestors, people from the right will likely go left because it is big government gunning people down for exercising their rights.

It won't be just current antifa and blm vs. everyone else. Videos of massacre will change the dynamic.

It will be current admin and loyalists vs. everyone else.
Chances are some leftists, even anti-Trump would switch side to the admin as well.

Goes waaaaaaay beyond Trump. The 535 jack holes sitting in Congress have more power to right the ship than any president could have. The president is just a scape goat. The protesting, and likely Covid, would be just as bad under Deplorable Hillary or Youre not black enough Biden.

Actually, I think quarantine really ramped up the protests.
Ironically Trump wanted to open up sooner.

Alot of people got nothing to do. So it easier to go protest.

No it would. This isn't the olden times or a third world military. They would smash any "rebels" with relative ease if the gloves came off.

Many of those guys on the just want an excuse to fight a power. They will be like giddy hoo! Lets fight in a civil war!

And everyone loves an underdog.

It is nearly impossible for America to have a Civil War, no force can stand up to the military so you would need them to somehow nearly equal divide themselves into opposing forces to have any sort of real war.

If it goes bad, military sides with Trump and we become a dictatorship or military sides against him and what we become is much harder to put your finger on.

A countries own citizens is alot different.

Ex: they send in tanks to NYC to kill protestors.

You realize what happens? Tanks blow up NYC.

No, they want to protect the status quo. Reforms to gay marriage or shelter in place orders are equivalent to these protests for them.

It's the only hope for change at this point, talking and peaceful protests never got anywhere.

Either aim to slit their throat, or content yourself with their boot on yours.

Every libertarian ive talked to about the military being deployed in DC are saying that its a fascist move by Trump.

It will be Left + libertarians coming together on the issue of government tyranny vs bootlicking right wingers.

A thousand people storming a prison just to free like 6 prisoners would be pretty hilarious.

I was more referring to civilians seizing the gunpowder and cannons that were stored there.
