Nope.

Embrace it. You've been advocating for it nonstop. Now, you're doing so at the direct expense of the Constitution......which, evidently, means frick all to you.

You believe the domestic terrorists targeting federal agents are just protesters?

The insurrection act is a power granted to the POTUS by the constitution. One that half of our POTUSes have used. Nice try, but you're wrong.

Reeducation camps, please. That's better than just executing them all.

Oh, you are the actual idiot you've proven yourself to be all along. Have fun, but stop pretending you are something you clearly are not.

Yes. Trump is going to use a little thing called the Emergency Broadcast Sytem.

Damndest thing is, I don't even think an insurrection act is needed if fed Gov would just enforce fed laws. Instead, we see a lot of the same assholes time and time again, breaking federal laws, without even being arrested. Start arresting everyone breaking federal laws and the propaganda won't mean shite.

If you don’t like it, turn the tv off or don’t read the article. America isn’t supposed to be the country that makes you happy. We don’t outlaw someone because we disagree with them. MSM is talking propaganda, so what? Don’t listen.

Don’t ever tell me I can’t have my rights guaranteed in the constitution because you don’t like what I’m saying.

Jesus Christ. Send the military in, cut off their information access, stop people from reporting.

You want to line them up on the wall too?

I’m sorry, the city of Minneapolis is not full of fricking terrorists. You people have been absolutely poisoned by your fricking algorithms.

You don’t have to like their politics, but this thing where you want to “own the libs” through state provided force is illiberal as frick.

I’d respect people like you more if you just admitted you want a one party rule totalitarian state instead of pussyfooting around.

I’m sorry, who’s been brainwashed here? You want the president to send tanks to Minneapolis, Minnesota; round up members of the opposing party; and put them in reeducation camps?

I’m going to assume this is a troll. But if it isn’t, this is why people call republicans fascist.

Only the ones contributing to the insurrection.

When has this board become so anti-constitutional?


How is the insurrection act that has been on the books for 2 centuries and used multiple times unconstitutional?

Don’t take away MY liberties because of whackos. My rights don’t end where your feelings begin.


Prohibiting federal law enforcement from doing their job isn't a feeling. It's a fact and specifically mentioned in the law.

The funny thing here is that I'm more Conservative than you and I'm not the one advocating for the growth and overreach of Federal power and the trampling of Constitutional rights. I know you're a tiny bit of a troll, but you're mostly just stupid.
