Here's a new twist on MAGA stupidity.

Quote
Gun owners are putting their metal where their manhoods are in a bizarre trend that sees men courting danger to prove how well they can manage a gun.

Those participating in the meme do so by pointing their gun at their genitals with the safety off, placing their finger over the trigger, and posting a photo of it on social media. And voilà, just like that – proof they are very manly.

I haven't seen that anywhere. Do you have a link?

Giuliani on TV said these riots would never happen in Republican run cities and definitely not on his watch in NYC.

Also said he would have charged Chauvin with 1st degree murder and he'd get him down to 2nd possibly 3rd at the worst.

He's gonna be re-elected, isn't he?

I've this this playbook firsthand here in India. Distract people from the real issues by creating an us vs them situation, move the fence-sitters towards you by making it a law and order issue where you won't be safe under your opponent, win the elections easily on an emotive plank.

I'm not saying he was smart enough to orchestrate all this, but he's smart enough to take advantage of it for sure. The Trump campaign will play these scenes in their campaign ads the next 5 months. The looters just played right into their hands.

I don't understand how he can claim this when its happening under his watch

This is not good for him, its another issue in a monsoon of issues America already has with Covid, unemployment at a record high and the economy tanked. Now he has civil unrest and not just in one place but all over the country.

Oh I agree with you. But he'll just say it's not his fault, he'll blame in on Democrat governors and mayors.

He's doing it already by constantly highlighting which states are under Democrat Governors and Mayors. He's going to go for the votes of those people who've had to lock themselves into their homes or had their business looted.

White guy in Salt Lake City pulled up to protesters and exited his vehicle with a bow an arrow. Pointed it in different directions before firing off an arrow. He was then pummeled and his car set on fire. Police rescue him and release him. Walking around later he stumbles across a news crew. In the interview he blames the incident and his injuries on "two black males".

You don't want people putting out the fire you've probably just lit. The people who burn buildings are the same ones who throw rocks at emergency services.

They're not genuine protesters. They're either dumb thugs or people being organised to cause as much mayhem as possible.

The Trump admin is going to be throwing this all at Antifa or left-wing elements. It will ignite his base and in the worst case scenario get the red-hatted MAGA brigade to take their own action.

There's good people on both sides.

You cant control a riot, you have to make sure it doesn't start.

Once murdering black people by officers of the law becomes a crime, we ll see far less riots.

Meanwhile in Virginia

RICHMOND — A Chesterfield County man who died of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound last week was spinning a 9mm semi-automatic pistol on his finger when it discharged, fatally injuring him, police said.

The man, Kenneth Dickerson, 57, was standing outside his home in the 8300 block of Hull Street Road “twirling or spinning the firearm on his finger” when it went off about 6:30 p.m. July 14, said Chesterfield police Lt. Brad Conner. Dickerson died of his injuries after being taken to a local hospital.

“It looks like he was literally playing with the gun, spinning it, and the gun went off,” Conner said.

Police haven’t yet received the state medical examiner’s report on Dickerson’s cause and manner of death. But Conner said the evidence points to an accidental, self-inflicted shooting.

Hope he gives them both barrels (ho ho) but I'm not holding my breath. Trump will probably sue to dissolve the New York attorney general, or, failing that, New York.

Staggering video from Kenosha. Kyle Rittenhouse, a 17 year old militia member shoots and kills a protestor. You can hear him running away from the scene saying "I killed someone". He runs up the street with an assault rifle and when he is tackled and shoots and kill another person and wounds more, loosing off a volley of shots at unarmed protestors.

And this is the crazy thing... he walks towards the police holding his gun... and they drive straight past him. Apparently they gave him water and thanked him for his help...

They drive off leaving him standing there with his assault rifle.

Not sure this is true. There is a video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eqDJqvdCOJc) where you can allegedly see him in front of a shop
(around 5 minutes and 50 seconds in) and there are police vehicles in the street. It seems that that was before the shooting and in my view it's not clear who the police are talking to asking, if they need water. It could be the guys with the guns, the people in the shop/business or amongst themselves. In the end you can also hear someone being told to leave the area, because they are a civilian and I'm not sure whether they're talking to that kid or someone else. The whole situation seems a bit unclear. However, it clearly shows how fucked up a country the US are. People walking in the streets armed to their teeth and nobody gives a fuck. It's just insane...

This was always gonna esculate, Burn Loot Murder have been anything but “peaceful protestors”.

Very sad to see

You're not seriously suggesting that this is all protestors fault? Get your fucking head checked.

A black man gets shot 6 times in the back for 'allegedly' running to his car to get a gun from the glovebox.

Meanwhile a white 17 year old fuckwit from another state shoots 2 people dead with an AR-15, and walks calmly towards police while still holding the weapon and he's not even arrested.

See the difference?
