Many excellent points and of them #11 stands out. If we want to persuade onlookers that the protests have a moral foundation as well as a political argument, they must be peaceful. Hard to do when passions run high, but passion alone won’t carry the day.
"The protests were mostly peaceful up until Trump announced he was deploying the National Guard."
Oh Jesus. HAHAHAHA. Here we go again. CNN claiming "mostly peaceful protests" in front of burning buildings.
This article is pure leftist drivel. Propaganda following the massive ignoring of the Biden border crisis that allowed hundreds of millions of illegal immigrants to flow.
The good news here is that these people rioting and holding Mexican flags are likely deportation subjects. Note that the majority of Los Angeles residence support a cleanup of the Biden mess.
It is individuals with values as yours who create problems by demanding that humans should be preveneted from mgrating through arbitrary and discriminatory methods
Right. Unlock your doors and take down your fence. You don’t own any property… it is there for anyone in the world to use. You need to feed them all and take care of them too. They won’t really care about keeping you place clean and safe though. Because it isn’t their home… they are just there to take advantage of your open door stupidity.
Frank, globalism, including open borders, will win in the end ;). Because the best solution to solve illegal immigration is to legalise migration for all citizens around the world
As intelligent as these warnings are, extremist activists will laugh at them. They’re not there to protest government overreach; they’re there to show off their manhood and proclaim their passion. Some are there to undermine democracy, either because of some real or imagined imperfection or perhaps on behalf of a foreign power. The goal of protestors should be to smell out these people and eject them.
This has been a problem at protests for decades. Anarchists like to swoop in and break stuff. Protest leaders normally know how to keep this from happening. A lot of other protests have been peaceful - certainly the April 5 protest I attended, and others.
Note that the protests started out peaceful, according to _the NYPD_ - as Isaac said, they are not ones to cut protesters any slack at all. Could anarchists have decided that if the National Guard was coming it was time to engage? Not impossible.
I opened the article wondering what it would be like, started it apprehensive, and grew to like it a few bullets in. I like "commonsense" moderate positions being represented, because they're rare to see.
The bond and connection between people in a community are often stronger where individuals experience efficient collaboration and positive relations in their everyday lives at the local level.
This is one reason why many people in Los Angeles are protesting against Donald Trump’s authoritarian and nationalist immigration policies—because they have often had good experiences living alongside individuals born in other parts of the world, such as South America.
In contrast, many small towns and rural areas in the U.S., where people have little or no direct contact with immigrants, tend to show stronger hostility toward immigration.
This is why opposition to immigration as in Europe is often more intense in areas with few or no immigrants. The current protests in America are, for the most part, peaceful and anti-authoritarian.
So support your local community through active engagement and resist all arbitrary government politics.

Ya know, I really hate when Trump twists these poor folks arms into doing stupid shit like burning cars, and throwing rocks at law enforcement.

Btw, a country or a nation is not "home". One reason is because a home is mainly a physical construct while the USA is a social construct
Global citizenship is about humans seeing our planet as a common home for humanity and that we can co-create our world.
Stupid utopian musings that I would tag as brilliant sarcasm if not for your history of posting stupid utopian musings.
