The foresight involved in creating the Electoral College for electing a President instead of a straight democracy is such an overlooked thing in history. Of course Democrats whine about the popular vote in California and New York where neither candidate spent a day in campaigning for the general election.Houhusky said:

That's my point about voting the idiots out. If people really are sick of the riots they will vote in new leadership who will prosecute. Otherwise those people can shut up and enjoy watching their cities burn.NorthwestFresh said:

I would like nothing better than the rioters to get a taste of severe repercussions, but I don't believe that the police shooting and killing them will be a net positive. Now, if civilians who are defending themselves happen to pick a few off each day after being attacked I am more than happy to see those results. An iron fist from the police will only reinforce what the left is saying about cops. Unlike many posters here (myself included), most Americans likely do not want to see people get shot and killed to restore order.Sledog said:
The only way that the riots stop is when law and order is restored, arrests are made, and people are prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. That's not going to happen until the "people" stand up to the inept government leadership and vote the bums out and replace them with people who will allow laws to be enforced.
Killing them only gives the left what they want.
Humans dont naturally trend towards liberty. There is a reason why the framers of the Constitution largely and openly despised democracy. The unique safety and liberty in the US, combined with the live and let live mentality is an anomaly in human existence and only held by a tiny minority fraction of people in the world.
Maybe you say, "just move" but you are going to eventually run out of places to run.
The common thread of individual liberty, cultural melting pot, and American patriotism has been lost. You can say, just vote better, but human history has demonstrated time and time again that humans are far more likely to just vote for corrupt authoritarian dictators and gulags when they aren't indoctrinated with the ideals of Americanism than what you might hope. -
It really gave me time to go back into the film room, clean a few things up, and get back to grinding.RaceBannon said:

Hey man, I'm waiting and ready for civil war. That's going to happen in my lifetime, IMO. The melting pot does not work.Houhusky said:
