[BladesNBarrels]

Denver has issued a curfew at 8:00 pm for tonight and tomorrow night.

Lefties get froggy in the Springs?... I don't think that'll go the way they're maybe thinking it will.

There?s a lot more conservatives in that mix than most people would think.

Got a cite for that? Rioting/anarchy and conservatism don't directly translate.

Got a cite for the rioting and anarchy claim or is that just from the msm?

I’m citing the Facebook pages I’d been checking out to see whats going on at the grassroots level. I can confirm from those pages and the live feeds I stayed up all night watching that 1, there’s way more actually patriotic conservatives going to these protests and from out of state. 2, there’s a lot of politically ambiguous people going and mobilized, and there’s a bunch of libertarian types as well. Far more than any antifa or pinko commie types.

Msm sure is helping conservatives make themselves look bad right now over this.

There were a lot of conservatives at the protest against the lockdown about a month or so ago. I was there. Very peaceful. There were a few of the professional protesters there, too. The difference is, they got no traction with that group.

ETA - we also got derided by the media and the powers that be for how illegal, irresponsible, and reckless our protest was.

It’s unfortunate that more people don’t realize that your protest can remain peaceful and the cops won’t try to brutalize you nearly as quickly if your protest is armed.
