My lib uncle was fretting about the LA shit to the point that I called him and had a long conversation laying out all the facts. He didn't know about the riots, how illegal immigration was at the core of the issue, and assumed Trump was just mindlessly attacking California because its a Democrat state. He's 73 and still gets hoodwinked by twink Democrat operatives on facebook. SAD!

At least yer having better luck than me with my Boomerlib family members.They just double down.

Theres videos on x of military trucks full of us troops on a highway but they're from sketchy accounts so I don't wanna repost.

 

[Hostile Takeover]

We're due for Marines any time now i feel like.

700 US MARINES, PULLING UP IN BLACK FORD RAPTOR TRUCKS.

 

[Zacaria's Hours]

That doesn’t make the situation any better.

That's the point, why say retarded bullshit when stuff's already bad enough, lying just makes the terrible reality look too insane to be true.

A comment on Steve’s stream is saying that the Marines are on the ground, setting up control points after police clear a street. Sounds like made up bullshit.

I'm suprised California Unions stand up for illegals. Like, you'd think they wouldn't want undocumented laborers paid under the table being a widely accepted thing???

They just want their dues. You don't have to be a citizen to join the union. It wouldn't surprise me if they promised to protect illegals from ICE if they joined the union.

I've heard a few anecdotal tales from people about how the SEIU was supposed to intervene on the union member's behalf for various reasons and just blew them off after taking their dues for years--skipping hearings, failing to file violation notices with OSHA, stuff like that. Stuff they're SUPPOSED to do on behalf of their members.

Also SEIU sued to force California's In Home Health Service (government funded) to force union membership on single-patient family caregivers because they claimed that their salary negotiations on behalf of the union workers also benefited the non-union family caregivers, tjetefote they should be forced to pay dues. Thankfully they lost. The SEIU is the worst union in the country, worse than the Teamsters even.

Calm down. He didn’t lie. He just didn’t specify which election he was referring to.

if those are marines, I ASSURE YOU they have had far, far, FAR WORSE....in just bootcamp.

Also looks we are almost 5k pages. Always nice when a milestone happens during a happening.

This should have been moved into it's own Happenings thread when it first started tbh

 

[IsaACKRepentance]

Happy 5,000 to one of my favorite threads!

I may be MATP (Mad at the Protestors) and not poosting but I love you all the same!

Good chance this footage is from the weekend but someone was selling hot dogs on the 101 Freeway in Los Angeles while people were standing in it.

5000 pages and not even a year into Trump's second term.

 

[Balanced Boomer]

HAPPY 5,000 PAGES, USPG2!

It's been a long 5+ months. Please bow your heads and join me in a moment of silence for our fallen heroes.



May God be with you, our strongest burger soldier. May you one day return and bring joy to all our hearts.

In the meantime, please be considerate about who you bully while discussing politics. Please be kind to [REDACTED] when he comes into the thread. Words hurt, and we're all family here. Treat [REDACTED] like you would your most fragile, yet treasured, valuable possession.

Remember the [REDACTED] rule:

Yeah, riots have nothing to do with US politics.
