(8,200 posts)I asked if the violent rioting could cause Biden to lose the election. It was taken down for some undisclosed violation. I registered a protest and it has not been answered.
I see that Trump has not lost any time in seizing on the violence in Kenosha to us it as an excuse to send in troops. This is exactly what I was attempting to post that those responsible for the violence could do significant damage to Biden in that Trump will claim that it is an example of what he has been warning about that Biden's election would led to lawlessness. Of course this is totally false, but I fear that it could be effective in swaying opinion. I don't know what the political position of those who are responsible for the violence including burning of businesses, but if they are Democratic supporters they are doing serious damage to our determination to win this election. It does serious damage to the credibility of those who are peacefully and constitutionally correct in their right to peaceful protest that is a valuable right to correct grievances.
I just want to add that of the five responses before it was taken down, all were in total agreement that it could negatively affect Biden.
I want to respond that my appeal has been approved.

The Taliban has now infiltrated our streets, in the form of cops and right wing gun nuts.

I put exaggerated quotes in my post, of course, but that was my impression of the BS.

Yes, that exact precise word: DEFUND!
Of what possible use are the police to me, my friends, my neighbors? Are they going to help or hurt me?
Tell me again: WHY NOT DEFUND???

If we manage to take back the government, then PDs like the one in Kenosha will need to be completely disbanded, and reinstated under direct federal control.
If we don't get them under control, the future will be genuinely terrifying.

(49,376 posts)situations. The results of the 2016 election have put us in a temporary bind but now Americans are about to come together and repair much of the damage. Of course it won't be easy.
I have full faith in the common decency which abides in the vast majority of Americans.
