Do you ---

Back the Blue?

or do you ---

Back the mob that killed cops and destroyed government property?

Because if you back Trump --- YOU JUST BACKED the latter.

It is time for you to own what the hell you voted for!

You no longer back the blue....

This group hates cops and by storming the Capitol, they are also enemies of the state.

But not enemies of Trump, because they bolstered his ego, they were pardon.

THIS is what YOU voted for.

Own it.

No cops were killed on Jan6. A cop was killed during the summer of Floyd. Liberals hate cops!

The family of Brian Sicknick would take umbrage with your statement.

You support the person who pardoned the people who dealt him lethal injuries.

That is what you voted for.

Yes this man reported to duty and was protecting the Capital on Jan 6, then the next day, he suffered two strokes, dying from natural causes.

Re: Who do you back?

Dee, you’re a bit snarky so early.

Please set aside your emotion and hate if Trump and answer this.

Do you believe as I do that lethal force should have been used on Jan 6 AND against the rioters of the summer of Floyd.

The police office who died after J 6 died of a heart attack days later. The police officer who was murdered in the St Louis pawn shop was shot to death. Not that facts matter.

Come on now Dee, give me a real opinion.

Re: Who do you back?

On March 14, Julian Khater and George Tanios were arrested for assaulting Sicknick with a chemical spray. On January 28, 2023, Khater was sentenced to almost seven years in prison for assaulting an officer with a chemical irritant. The assailant was given a presidential pardon on January 20, 2025, by Donald Trump. (This is what YOU voted for!)

Re: Who do you back?

No, I'm not going the path of deflection.

I'm not the decision maker who pardoned these people with my pen.

Somehow you think if you can deflect to another scenario that it somehow vindicates Trump.

I might be cranky still on my first cup of coffee, but I'm not going down that rabbit hole.

How I feel about what should have been done to the rioters......whether lethal force or long prison sentences is not relevant here.

What is relevant is that instead of lethal force or long prison sentences.....

They get to roam free and buy more guns!

Brilliant!

That is what you voted for!

Now I gotta get to work....have to save up for what's about to happen to the price of produce, and prepare for the consequences of what you voted for.

Re: Who do you back?

All presidential pardons are BS. Any assault on a police officer should be a mandatory ten year sentence and murder of a police officer should be the death penalty.

TRUMP WAS WRONG TO PARDON THESE CRIMINALS WHO ATTACKED OUR CAPITOL.

Coward! No deflection except your mind. You won’t answer because deep down you would have fired on both.

Have a good work day and don’t take out your anger on your secretary. She probably voted for Trump too.

Re: Who do you back?

You know, she probably did! But I really don't know where the crew stands, and i'm grateful that we don't talk about it. Good work gets done, because we don't talk about it.

That's why you get the benefit, I get to spout off somewhere.

Re: Who do you back?

And to get back to the thing at hand....

It's not germaine to the conversation if I would or would not use lethal force.

I think lethal force is warranted up to the point when innocent life is in danger and there is no other option.

But the conversation at hand is the pardoning of the rioters...who were justly convicted for their actions.

I don't see how that's cowardly to not go down a rabbit hole of deflection, but it's okay to see differently I suppose.

Re: Who do you back?

Okay. That is what I said. He got peppered sprayed. Police have pepper spray on their uniform belts. I keep pepper spray in my car, it’s use is promoted for personal safety.

Yes, it is a chemical irritant. Peeling an onion can be an irritant.

These two men served 2 years in prison already.

Yes, I voted for the MAGA movement, could give a crap less who that offends.

Re: Who do you back?

That's fine....it's not offensive that you voted for the MAGA movement. People do have a choice, and your choice was much more respected than the choice people made in 2020 to get him the hell out of office the first time. Your choice was respected near and far and still respected.

I'm just helping you own what you voted for.

Isn't that nice of me?

(There Opi....I cracked a smile today.)

Re: Who do you back?

I believe the penalty should fit the crime.

Two years of Prison is severe enough for these two.

Re: Who do you back?

Even if they were eligible for parole in two years, that is not what the pardon stated.

The pardon didn't state they could just be free after two years.

The pardon was 'full and unconditional' basically reversing a guilty verdict and allowing these people to live as if they had never been convicted of a felony.

So even if you FEEL that two years is enough, they are being released as if they were NOT GUILTY.

They get to go buy guns....and will go buy guns!

I have to agree with Dee on that point Blu. No President should have powers of pardon. Innocent people don’t need pardons.

The leftists don't give a damn about cops unless they can tie one or two it Trump in a negative way.

Biden let a guy out who murdered two FBI agents, not a peep from these phony leftists in here.

I fully support J 6 hearings but it appears the Democrats destroyed all the evidence for some strange reason.

opi, you can join with the lefties in here in an effort to try to get them to join you on an issue, it isn't possible. If you think you can bad mouth J 6 and therefore they will agree with you on the hundreds of examples where Democrats disrespected or assaulted cops, they will NEVER EVER EVER bite. By now you should know that.

They are worthless and the only reason they don't attack you is because you kiss their asses, and even then they don't like you. I get the whole concept of being nice, but I really couldn't possibly care any less about these people.. ZERO, and trust me they feel the same way about me and I wouldn't want it any other way. The agony they feel now gives me great joy.

Good idea having the Doc take the fifth, now Democrats can get back to assaulting feds. At some point an agent will be killed, maybe at that point it will be open season on those leftist animals.

Re: In a bigly way, THE BLUE backed Hitler.

Joe, I don't care if they back me. I will stand on my own if necessary saying the riots on Jan 6 and those in the summer of Floyd could have easily been stopped if the police or national guard would have opened fire.

Some of the J6 raiders were only found guilty of disturbing the peace and destruction of public property. They deserved fines, not jail time.

The rioters in 2020 destroyed property, looted and actually did kill a person, not merely
"Contributed to his death" as was misstated earlier.

My opinions are mine and I don't look for agreement by others.

I support the Blue today, tomorrow and the next day. All anyone has to do is google comments by Maxine Waters, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Shumer, Whoopi, AOC and others during the summer of Floyd riots. It's clear more democrats hate the police than republicans. In our own state, our obese, worthless mayor pushed the Saf T Act giving criminals more leniency that ever. Pandering to a crowd who don't vote is a bad political move Your Porkiness. Kamal a learned it. I hope you do too.

Honestly....how did you get that way?

Is it too much Levin? Hannity? You even speak like them.

I think the one thing Opinionated GETS is that we may rarely see eye to eye on some things, but most of us live lives where we interact with others in this diverse world.

If I saw Trump supporters the way you see anyone that doesn't think like you, I wouldn't be able to work and I wouldn't have healthy family relationships.

I don't get personal, or try not to any way, and I won't get personal with you...but I feel like that's a very scary world that I'm looking into.

I wish more right leaning people were like Opinionated....and for people that don't lean right....well there are good people like Mill Girl and Soccer....

It's possible to have cups of coffee and copious amounts of beer with people who see it all differently....adults can do that.

Trump can't, but adults can.

I hope you're an adult and can.

Re: Who do you back?

FWIW, I could go more into the conversation on pardons but just checking in briefly.

The whole conversation would be about the entire concept of 'justice'.

I don't believe Biden had clean hands in the pardon game....and these powers are being both weaponized and used as shields of immunity for friends, and favors for ego-boosters.

I don't like what I'm seeing with the 'justice' system and how it is being weaponized and manipulated....

The Trump can do no wrong crowd will try to say that it was started when Trump was convicted with 34 crimes.....because he can do no wrong.

Either way, the concept of Equal Justice under the Law erodes each time justice is manipulated.

Re: Who do you back?

But Opi...I don't believe the Supreme Court has clean hands either. If you can get yourself an office chair in the Oval office, you're immune from felonies?

Trump is bad enough.

But with an electorate that is more gullible than I ever could have imagined...much worse could come in, with felonies even graver....and do real harm to the people.

But hey, we got precedent.

When I implicate Biden....he's still less than 20% of the problem...but he's not clean either.
