I don't know if that is the intent, but it is certainly part of the effect.Do you honestly believe they're being sent to intimidate law-abiding citizens?
Now that is a good second amendment argument.

Yes.Are they?
That’s the effect it’s causing.Is that the purpose?
And that’s the excuse from the federal government sending in the forces against local government demands and court orders telling them not to.Or are they being deployed to protect the agents from a rebellious froup of people who are trying to prevent the agents from doing their Constitutionally supported jobs and using violence to do so?
I doubt you’d be critical enough to say it’s not.From what I've seen its needed.
Yeah but we don’t want to make the fascist’s jobs too easy for them.They could all stay home if the radical left would stop obstructing and acting violent.
Why would they want to do that?That is the intended effect.
I'd probably feel intimidated too if I believed lamestream news. Do not succumb to its indoctrination! It's just the politics of fear, which your side has used long before Trump was around. Remember the TV commercial with a Republican pushing a grandmother in a wheelchair off a cliff to her death? Trump's going to serve for life as a dictator, and Trump wants to do this, and Trump's trying to do that. It's always something. You guys are scared of your own shadow. We've only had two decent presidents in my lifetime, and Trump is one of them. You should really relax and enjoy it.I don't know if that is the intent, but it is certainly part of the effect.
Inciting violence is not part of the first or second amendment. It could actually be a crime.Isn’t that what the second amendment is for?
How is telling people to exercise their constitutional rights an incitement to violence?Inciting violence is not part of the first or second amendment. It could actually be a crime.
Saying that someone should be shot is not exercising their constitutional rights.How is telling people to exercise their constitutional rights an incitement to violence?
Who said that?Saying that someone should be shot is not exercising their constitutional rights.
Yes I was talking about the OP but Don Lemon lost his job for saying what he did. The only interpretation of what he said was for people to use their newly legally purchased weapons to shoot the officers that come to their door. His comments were at best irresponsible and at worst calling for the formation of a militia to shoot police and ICE agents.Who said that?
Edit: I see now you must be talking about the OP. I’m just commenting on the bit about Don Lemon.
Did he? I hadn’t heard that part.Yes I was talking about the OP but Don Lemon lost his job for saying what he did.
That’s not my interpretation so you’re wrong.The only interpretation of what he said was for people to use their newly legally purchased weapons to shoot the officers that come to their door.
That’s only if the ICE agents are overstepping their boundaries. People have a right to defend their lives and property even from the government. This right doesn’t only apply to white people.His comments were at best irresponsible and at worst calling for the formation of a militia to shoot police and ICE agents.
You live under a rock then.Did he? I hadn’t heard that part.
Yeah. Forgot to factor in the rabid far left interpretation.That’s not my interpretation so you’re wrong.
Nope. Drawing guns on armed police is a really bad idea but the far left likes martyrs so they can loot and get new tvs.That’s only if the ICE agents are overstepping their boundaries. People have a right to defend their lives and property even from the government. This right doesn’t only apply to white people.
Not me. I’m not drawing a firearm on police. I’m good.Sorry if that makes y’all uncomfortable.
Or maybe you’re just confused.You live under a rock then.
Well you’re still wrong. We can just look at his actual words quoted and see there is no incitement to violence. Go and quote the part you think is relevant to your interpretation.Yeah. Forgot to factor in the rabid far left interpretation.
Fortunately that’s not anything Don Lemon said to do. You can try reading his words again.Nope. Drawing guns on armed police is a really bad idea but the far left likes martyrs so they can loot and get new tvs.
Right. You would just let the government have its way with you. We still have a right to self defense even against government agents.Not me. I’m not drawing a firearm on police. I’m good.
He said something stupid a couple of years ago and continue to say stupid stuff now.Or maybe you’re just confused.
Don Lemon was let go over two years ago. It couldn’t have been related to comments he made recently about the current ICE raids.
The journalist and former CNN anchor had suggested on podcast The Left Hook with Wajahat Ali that "Black people, brown people of all stripes" should "legally" get a gun in case their homes were visited. He also added he was "not condoning or promoting violence."Well you’re still wrong. We can just look at his actual words quoted and see there is no incitement to violence. Go and quote the part you think is relevant to your interpretation.
I would submit and then sue the hell out of them. If George Floyd would have done that he would still be alive today.Fortunately that’s not anything Don Lemon said to do. You can try reading his words again.
Right. You would just let the government have its way with you. We still have a right to self defense even against government agents.
What bothers me is the call for violence by your leftist side that is not protected under the constitution. No where is the second amendment does it give anyone the right to draw guns against law enforcement. Your side disobedience nonsense cost people’s lives.Sorry that bothers you.
There you go. You were mistaken. No apology necessary.He said something stupid a couple of years ago and continue to say stupid stuff now.

Don Lemon telling people to arm themselves against ICE sparks MAGA fury
The ex-CNN anchor was speaking on podcast The Left Hook with Wajahat Ali when he made the comments.www.newsweek.com
You tell me what guns are for.What did you think the guns are for?
That’s your own interpretation.And he saying that he is not condoning violence is rubbish. He wants people to take out guns at ICE and shoot ICE agents.
Yeah that’s what I’ve been saying for years against those second amendment “don’t tread on me” types. This is just their right wing foolishness being reflected back and no surprise, you guys don’t like it.Again us a really bad idea to take out a gun in law enforcement.
Not at all. It’s been the right that has advocated for gun ownership to protect against a tyrant. Now the left is joining them.This will cost lives but I guess you condone that kind of thing.
Floyd did not have that option. He was submitted and subdued and restrained with an officer on his neck for almost 10 minutes. That’s why he died.I would submit and then sue the hell out of them. If George Floyd would have done that he would still be alive today.
No one is calling for violence. Arming oneself is a constitutional right. Advocating for an legally armed citizenry is a constitutional right.What bothers me is the call for violence by your leftist side that is not protected under the constitution.
Someone should tell all the right wing militias about this. It’ll be news to them.No where is the second amendment does it give anyone the right to draw guns against law enforcement. Your side disobedience nonsense cost people’s lives.
Nah. I’m not wrong.There you go. You were mistaken. No apology necessary.
Paper weights.You tell me what guns are for.
It’s the obvious interpretation except of course yours.That’s your own interpretation.
I’m not a right winger so I wouldn’t know. Don’t care. But taking out a gun on law enforcement has a high probability that the person will be shot. Stupid idea.Yeah that’s what I’ve been saying for years against those second amendment “don’t tread on me” types. This is just their right wing foolishness being reflected back and no surprise, you guys don’t like it.
Well you go ahead and take a gun out on law enforcement. Just have someone tell us do we can take up a collection to send flowers for your funeral.Not at all. It’s been the right that has advocated for gun ownership to protect against a tyrant. Now the left is joining them.
Not really. I’m not a left winger.We should be glad we’ve found some common ground!
Floyd had an option when he was given a lawful order to get out of his car. He would still be alive if he would have exited the car and out his hands behind his back. Of course being high on meth didn’t help either.Floyd did not have that option. He was submitted and subdued and restrained with an officer on his neck for almost 10 minutes. That’s why he died.
Don Lemons and others for your side are in fact calling for violence.No one is calling for violence. Arming oneself is a constitutional right. Advocating for a legally armed citizenry is a constitutional right.
Not me. I’ll leave that for you to worry about.Someone should tell all the right wing militias about this. It’ll be news to them.
You were.Nah. I’m not wrong.
Then why are Republicans encouraging it?I’m not a right winger so I wouldn’t know. Don’t care. But taking out a gun on law enforcement has a high probability that the person will be shot. Stupid idea. Just have someone tell us do we can take up a collection to send flowers for your funeral.
One stupid comment similar to another stupid comment does not make me wrong. Stupid is as stupid does. lolYou were.
You said he was fired for these comments he made recently regarding ICE agents. That’s not correct. You were wrong.
No apology needed though. I’m just happy to help.
Because a good portion of republicans are right wingers.Then why are Republicans encouraging it?
