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. -
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 still think cops shooting them will do much more harm than good. -
Careful...Sledog said:The act of arson on an occupied building is deadly force! Shoot them.
Talk of genocide is not acceptable on these boards. -
I'm in favor of pepper balls to defend my business and hollow points to defend my house.

When the law breakers can use deadly force as a matter of course without repercussions it will only get worse. Just like pulling the feds out. Treat them like the terrorists they are. Try and burn a building down with me in it and see how that works out for you. Sealing the doors so the police can't escape the fire is premeditated murder if anyone dies. This is common sense but that's a super power in today's society.

Of course it's premeditated murder - I'm the one who posted the tweet calling it attempted murder. No one is arguing otherwise.
Yes, they deserve to be shot.
That doesn't mean it's the best thing for our country for them to be shot by cops.

Any cop shooting now is open season on Saks Fifth Avenue I mean social justice protests mainly peaceful with a little fire thrown in.
Which is not inconsistent with wanting to defund the police. Why not defang them? Why not both?
The left has the home court advantage in the narrative as always but the democratization of social media and ALT RIGHT sites like this one even the field -
Even if the majority of voters want a corrupt 3rd world style political legal system and are in favor of political violence, at some point there is the whole tyranny of the majority thing going on...BleachedAnusDawg said:

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.
