"I Am Outraged" DC Bishop Denounces trump's Visit To Church After Police Clear Protesters With Tear Gas

Man why did the left miss so much school? Protest is not the same as looting, destroying nor are they interchangeable.

They were not looting or destroying. They were peaceful protestors who were attacked by the police so Trump can have a cheap photo up. This was pretty muc. A Th confirmed by the Arlington Police who were involved. They have withdrawn their officers.
It's not Arlington. It's DC. A river runs through it. The Potomac. I can't believe that this man would cross Lafayette Square to dirty St. John's. No matter your religion, do understand what is sacred. I would not trash where you pray. trump has disrespected the American people and he has disrespected the Christian faith.
 
This was last evening at around 6:30pm. I watched it live. The crowd was peaceful and was never asked to disperse. The police just started with the tear gas.

Imagine having 60 Secret Service agents being injured over the weekend. Imagine having protesters... heh "protesters" tearing down barricades meant to keep them away from the White House complex. Imagine that type of unruliness happening over and over until proper force is applied.

The time for words passed when these "protesters" decided to engage in aggressive tactics.

Force with force. That's it. That's all.

And then these FUCKING MORONS, complain that the "peaceful protesters" got dealt with very peaceful means such as tear gas (oh no).

Yes. For nothing more than a dopey photo op.
 
I'm no student of the Bible, so I missed where The Prince of Peace said, 'get that scum out of here!' Quite a Revelation.
Libs may confuse trump with the Devil, but trump does not confuse himself with Jesus

Imagine having a competent understanding of your native language. Like knowing the difference between peaceful protests and riots.
Well not all protests are alike. The protestors attacked the secret service on Mon and the cops attacked the protestors on Tues.

The best part of it is the yapping gun nuts quit talking about a civil war. Now they just want Uncle Sam to squash the unruly.
It seems that the bottom 20% of blacks, whites and browns are already at war with the nation

I don't stipulate as to what constitutes the bottom 20%, but until they achieve equality before the law, they should be.

But were they peaceful or were they engaging in aggressive tactics at the time of the action? That is not clear.
It is clear, the Park Police cleared them out not even knowing President Trump would be coming. The “protesters” were throwing things at the cops, and climbing buildings in the area. They refused to move after being told repeatedly to move back.
Then Park police moved them back.
it is clear now, is it? Some 20 priests disagree. But I'm sure you'd say they were throwing bricks.

Unfortunately...with these kinds of actions...all of Trump's desired symbolism has kind of backfired.

What I don't understand is this....usually outings by a president are well planned in advance and the way cleared. Understandably, there likely couldn't be a LOT of advance time for this, due to the fast pace of events, but still - there could have been a 12 hour window, at least, to set things up. Move people, clear the area, and create an understanding with the relevant clergy. I don't understand why that did not happen here.
 
An American Flag means pride in country, pride in being American, pride in what the flag represents including all the sacrifices.
Many liberals have never known that pride and maybe never will

michelle obama had to become First Lady before she felt even a faint spark of pride in America

and that goes for many less important libs who were always taught to focus on what they dont like about America

I totally disagree. For a long time the right has acted like they own the flag, like they are the only ones who can define what it means to be proud, patriotic and love America. Michelle Obama's words, of course, are taken by you guys out of context. No surprise there.

You do not own the flag.
You do not own patriotism.
You do not own the country.

It belongs to ALL of us.

Mchelle Obama : " All this for a damn flag"?

 
You can't say "Trump" without thinking 'Christian!"
And ANOTHER dumbshit liberal lunatic chimes in. Hilarious!

He's quite the Bible-thumper.
Protesters attacked and tried to burn the church the night before trump went there

Then I guess the peaceful protesters the next day had it coming. I'm no student of the Bible, so I missed where The Prince of Peace said, 'get that scum out of here!' Quite a Revelation.
AND the liberal lunatic dumbshit chimes in AGAIN. Hilarious!
The Catholic archbishop of Wash and Episcopal bishop of DC agreed with joaquin.
Thats called stupid from top to bottom

Like michelle most libs will tolerate America when they get what they want

but break out in pure hate when they dont

Like you know what we think.

Not.

And one he is being lambasted over. His ability to alienate is seemingly without bounds. (I'd laugh but teargassing a priest is just out of bounds.)

We have equality before the law. No one has an excuse to wage war against the rest of the nation.


Also, keep in mind, in a war, the other side will fight back.
 
However, since when is teargas a FIRST resort against American Citizens exercising their rights peacefully?

Curious, what would the alternative have been?

Let's say the cops used simple words to disperse the protesters. How many of them would actually listen? The cops would be largely ignored.

Let's say a line of cops with batons decided to push them back with standard baton jabs. The protesters could take that as an act of violence. The situation would soon spiral out of control and the cops would lose all control of the situation.

So, what would be more effective than the other two methods? Teargas. It causes non-lethal pain and acts as an irritant. It does what words and batons can't.
 
Apparently someone chose to close his eyes to "peaceful" rioters burning a church and attacking the white house.

In other words, good luck with that.
They were not rioting when Trump had them attacked to make way for his blasphemous photo.

How were you going to make them move? Ask politely?

Peaceful protests are sometimes, seemingly, a guise for a riot later on in the night. You must assume these tactics are in play by the agitators even during the day.

The time for diplomacy has passed. The time for speaking softly has passed. No tolerance.

Also, were you expecting the president to walk into a mob of protesters? Or were you hoping he would for a negative outcome?
Peaceful protests are sometimes, seemingly, a guise for a riot later on in the night.
Or peaceful protestors are just that while rioters are rioters.

You obviously lack a tactical mind. Rioters can easily exploit peaceful protests to slip in and cause chaos later in the night after curfews have gone into effect.

You obviously lack a mind at all. That was not happening.

All I need do is google footage of the riots to prove you wrong.

Do it.
There were no riots near the WH yesterday evening at 6:30pm.Only peaceful protestors.

Fool.

You don't do it for the current situation, you do it to prevent the same situation that occurred prior from happening again.

Now, answer this:

Were any of the protesters injured? Were any of them hurt?

No?

Then mission accomplished. Message sent and delivered.
Fool.

You don't do it for the current situation, you do it to prevent the same situation that occurred prior from happening again.
Oh, I see. So every protest should be dispersed with tear gas or whatever just in case they were planning on getting riotous?

WTF?

Former Commanders Fault Trump’s Use of Troops Against Protesters

Retired senior military leaders condemned their successors in the Trump administration for ordering active-duty units on Monday to rout those peacefully protesting police violence near the White House.

[snip]

Gen. Martin E. Dempsey, a former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, wrote on Twitter that “America is not a battleground. Our fellow citizens are not the enemy.”

And Gen. Tony Thomas, the former head of the Special Operations Command, tweeted: “The ‘battle space’ of America??? Not what America needs to hear … ever, unless we are invaded by an adversary or experience a constitutional failure … ie a Civil War.”


Police used tear gas to clear protesters from Lafayette park so Trump could take a photo at St. John's Church


Educate yourself

Oh. So they cleared protestors, legally protesting for an offing biblical photo op?

WHOOOOOOOOSHHHHHHHH.............
They didn't use the Military. Since this thread is a lie I'd think someone of your......position and rank should fix it.

There certainly is in the one I posted, dope.
It's explained in the accompanying article I presented as well. Surely you cannot be that incompetent.
Couldn't they be the NG? I may be wrong, but I think that because DC is not a state, the fed govt can use the NG in that "district" without a governor calling them.

The Arch Bishop has more of a problem with the President calling for Law and Order, than she does with the rioters that tried to burn down her church.


That is the problem, specifically in this case and generally speaking with that level of hate and hysteria.


Neither of them is Trump's fault.

You need to educate YOURself. Federal military personnel were used.

You can see both federal troops and police in this video:
