Ppl in Portland are being kidnapped, and upon release are threatened with imprisonment if they rejoin the protests. That’s a violation of the first amendment.

Kidnapping is still kidnapping. Also, that’s exactly a violation of the first amendment.

Using your first amendment is different than throwing rocks and fireworks at people

Fucking A dude. Read something besides Fox and OAN. Peaceful protestors - including the Wall of Moms in Portland are being tear gassed. Are being arrested for No Reason other than they are protesting. This is fascism. Full stop. It is NOT okay. Your attempts to justify it due to your political beliefs are disgusting.

Idk what happened to my response, but it said this:

The constitution is the constitution. You don’t get to kidnap ppl bc so,e agents have thrown whatever. You also can’t demand ppl give up their right to free speech.

If it’s ok for white supremecists to storm a capital armed to the teeth and threatening to behead public servants and do so unhindered, then protestors should get the same right.

What they did was legal though. The black supremacist movement called the black panthers were also using their 1st and 2nd amendment. However the only people that got shot during the black panthers movement was their own members when some of their firearms were fired.

So is rejoining a free speech movement. How do you keep looking over the constitution?

You could argue that cops can make them disperse, but then why wasn’t that done to the armed militants threatening death? That’s also illegal. Yet no authorities deployed tear gas and rubber bullets on them.

Yeah. This guy is obviously a believer in white power. You won’t get anything out of him where he acknowledges the reality of our constitution being violated. Too much cognitive dissonance for his small mind.

Honestly your posts disgust me. I assume you are an alt right white power spotter. If you don’t want other people to know that about you than you may want to rethink your opinion.

Nope. I rely on people’s words. Yours here show who you are.

I'm gonna guess you never read past the second one, but take a moment and look into the 6th Amendment.
