is this domestic terrorism?
Maybe these lefties read spence and wdmso claim ( correctly) that Biden isn’t shutting down oil production in the short term like i thought he was.
So they stormed the Department of the Interior, injured a few cops, sent one to the hospital. Demanding that Biden to more to help the environment.

Things reportedly got a little pushy when the police started tasing and hitting protesters with batons to get them to move. It was a small protest, happens all the time. If any one broke the law arrest them. Big whoop. |

of course, the people we’re just singing folk songs and then the police went all Tienemen Square on the poor folk.
you got one thing right, it happens all the time, every single
time these babies don’t get their way. But you only care on the rare occasions when it comes from the right.

Dozens of protesters were arrested after they waged a sit-in at the Interior Department on Thursday to protest fossil fuel projects.

And do you have. A point ? Was he assaulted or did he throw his back out lifting a non compliant protester off the floor .?
A Texas constable deputy was fatally shot and two other deputies were wounded in what police are calling an "ambush"
But but a sit in gave you flashbacks to Jan 6th

point was putting a cop in the hospital, means it wasn’t a peaceful
sit in. it wasn’t january 6th in scale obviously, but it was a protest that got a little violent. i’m sorry if you can’t process that, blame the jerks who hurt the cop, not me.
violence against cops is way way up. predictable when you demonize them unfairly.

Interesting title to the post Jim, but no you don't push any narratives, I'm pretty sure that group isn't a domestic terror threat.

If you look at every sit in protest that has happened since the 60's and counted all who participated; that's one SH*T load of people. I'd also bet a majority of them today are respected citizens, with families and contributing to society. Jim it's like you need to look for a fight every day, get some help, maybe take up boxing or some martial arts to let loose of the anger.
From the encyclopedia; Sit-in movement, nonviolent movement of the U.S. civil rights era that began in Greensboro, North Carolina, in 1960. The sit-in, an act of civil disobedience, was a tactic that aroused sympathy for the demonstrators among moderates and uninvolved individuals. |

it’s not merely a “sit in” if they put a cop in the hospital. unless he tripped over one of the sitters.

If the cop is using excessive force it may not be what you think it is Jim and do a little look back and see if police haven't routinely used excessive for to deal with protests that are in conflict with their views or the times. |

There were descriptions of excessive force but I haven’t seen any pictures or video. I’ve got to think that in the process of arresting 55+ people who are actively or passively resisting some people are going to get hurt.

Did they come from a rally where the losing party wound them up?
Did they get told by party leaders, come to DC it will be wild.
Were they standing back and standing by till then?

you’re hearing those voices again. foxnews is right ( way right in the case of a few hosts), nobody said otherwise. our side is capable of analyzing ourselves with some sanity.

Well since you seem to think Pol Pot is to the right of WAPO, who would you sanely classify as centrist?
