Itâs really the burning of the countryâs flag you reside in, displaying another countryâs flag, taking away emergency resources from other parts of the area, destruction of property (non governmental. And even if it was governmental, thatâs not okay.), assault and battery, etc. Protesting and rioting are two different things.
I understand that, but only to a point. I know of many individuals that have come here legally, and they are upset with the people that donât. Itâs like cutting in line. We also as taxpayers have spent ridiculous amounts of money on illegal immigrants. If someone is here illegally then they should not be here.
I think more compassion would be great. And the IRS yes does care about their money, itâs a government entity, not a fan of giving my money away. The other side of the coin on that is if you donât pay taxes, thatâs what flags the IRS and is illegal to not pay taxes, and what would get someone caught for illegally immigrating, I assume. I also assume, because itâs the IRS that they donât check to see if youâre here legally or not because itâs not their job. Although they could set implementations
when things like this happen i can only think of children in near by areas, innocent pedestrians in the wrong place at the wrong time, even elderly and disabled waiting for the bus can be affected⌠but if people were just peacefully protesting we wouldnt have to worry about that
the thing is, these are not protests at all, they are riots. i do see your points but fighting for peace with violence will only make matters worse for the people youre fighting for- idk if i made sense but i dont believe the government will listen to anything and the only way theyâd move is by speeding up the process and deport people faster :/
Thatâs factually inaccurate. I have seen massive walks through downtown Chicago with kids in the midst. I assume those donât get nearly as much media attention as violence so people are less aware. Itâs dangerous to rely on media companies that are profit based bc they donât show the whole trust, just what makes the most money.
Why are you more focused on the property destruction of protestors and not the actual violence of ice and their gestapo style raids or about the cops doing this shit to protesters. And Iâm positive you saw this video. They were trying to leave and the cops threw them back down to be trampled. They are sadistic torturers and youâre licking their boots
Main Problem with your argument is that Thereâs several videos that prove at least A HANDFUL of individuals did try assaulting officers (tbc, not saying itâs a majority or even any remotely significant minority, but trying to deny that any violence towards Police, ICE and Soldiers has happened is not helping anyone, and if anything gives power to the people trying to claim it is way more). Also, I think you are severely underestimating how serious (and dumb) property damage is:
The key reason I say this purely comes down to the cost. Repairing damages (whether burn damages, broken windows, rebuying lost equipment and/or inventory depending on the business) can get very expensive very fast, and especially in low margin businesses (I.E Mom and Pop restaurants) those damages can be enough to kill or at least cause significant long term harm for to the business. Oh, and thereâs also the fact that many of those businesses may have owners that donât support or even are
