"There's a reason you separate military and the police. One fights the enemies of the state, the other serves and protects the people. When the military becomes both, then the enemies of the state tend to become the people." -William Adama, Battlestar Galactica

Awesome quote and very fitting to what is happening in the US today.

The American republic is dead, as proof of the protests and riots that are happening in numerous cities.  Now with fascist cops and imperial military personnel roughing up people in the streets and taking shots at families on the porches of their own homes, how can anyone deny that the American empire is now showing its wings domestically?

The quote is apropos, but we are not dead yet. This is another test to see if we will surrender liberty for convenience and by the reactions of a lot of people I am finally starting to have some hope. For a while people were asleep but they definitely are starting to wake up now.

He's thinking 4 steps ahead of the people who hate him.  Let things get worst, then activate his plan.  If he does it right from the start, many will blame him if it fails or goes wrong (like a NG shooting someone/ University of TX example from the 70s). He's mobilizing if needed.  Why you think they let protestors burn the guard shack near the WH? So when more force is applied, he can show why.

I'm sure an impeachment hearing will take place again after this is all done.  BTW Clinton testifying today.

He knows the CV-19 lockdown has created a lot of anxiety, including the loss of jobs and businesses.

There's a lot of pent up stress being released right now.  Trump wants to make sure he does what is needed to protect as much life and property as he can until the anxiety passes.  These things don't last forever.

There's a lot of pent up stress being released right now.

That's what you call the worst case of civil unrest the US ever faced in the last 20 years?

It's those kind of attitudes and willful ignorance that have led to the uprisings that many thousands of Americans are participating in today.

These things don't last forever.

What evidence do you have to come to such a conclusion?

Do you have the inside scope whether Trump will declare martial law?

Another factor in the rampant looting and violence are the face masks.
Since masks are the new normal, hoodlums can plunder in relative anonimity.

How about the last entire century?   

The last Civil War ended over 100 years ago.  Are you saying we've been under that same set of stressors ever since?

Other Americans have been under same stressors since that time.

If you need someone to identify them to you in light of the protests and riots that are happening, you just identified what the source of the problems are.

The American empire will definitely not be the same nor will ever heal its wounds if or when the current wave of social unrest is over.

The question now is how much longer can the country maintain national cohesion before balkanizing?

If so, watch out for a false flag attack on American soil that starts WWIII.

Are you talking about Blacks?

What happened to "the protests have nothing to do with race?"

You seem to continually contradict yourself.
