One group being treated like the criminals they are, while the other is treated like heros.

Indeed; and it's also interesting that they labelled them Right Wing Extreemists when one of their leaders is a leftist anarchist with a video displaying the leftist anarchist flag and him spouting leftist anarchist ideology.

Hadn't heard that. Just heard the headline. Now that it's done, maybe they can spare someone.

Fake news.

ALL of them are leftists anarchists asshats

No reason to repeat yourself. :-)

I was just saying the exact same thing to my wife this morning. Why can reporters like Elijah Schaffer know where they will riot but the government has no idea.

fake news

There was a mix of things going on. At least one was Antifa.

Not true

Yes.

The FBI is usually guilty of entrapment, where they blackmail someone into doing a crime and then arrest them to pump their numbers up.

Trump supporters ARE the number One threat to America and its sovereignty

Yeah. It’s Trump supporters Rioting, Destroying Property, Burning Cities, and Shooting the Police.
/end sarcasm/

Protests are BECAUSE Trump ignores genuine grievances from the Left. Riots are started by Right and Left wing provocateurs who want to overthrow the Government, Such as The Wolverine Watchman, who, by the way, are Right Wing Militia hell bent on domestic terrorism to destroy America.
Stand back and Stand ready

What "genuine grievance" has he ignored? The coup attempt by Hillary and the FBI? The right to Burn, Loot, and Murder? Frankly, the only genuine grievance he has ignored is the long list of felonies committed by the DNC.

And these militia guys haven't started any violence, nor do they want to destroy America. That's just stupid and ignorant, which is all we really expect from you.

Fake news!
Don’t subscribe to QAnon or Right Wing pundits thought proccess

I know you are but what am I?

Stand down and stand ready
Trump/ Militia equals TREASON

They have plenty of fake news and disinformation though.

When Reality creeps in on Trump and his supporters?
EVERYTHING BECOMES FAKE NEWS

Yay! Toejam is back! Another insightful observation! (You can look those words up later, along with sarcasm)

Domestic Terrorism has been reduced every year under Trump. The leading threat was Radicalized Islamic terrorists. Trump eliminated that threat. There were NO Islamic Terror attacks in 2019. With the lead threat removed, the next leading threat are these armed militias. The head-line should be Trumps focus on domestic terror and the declines we are seeing. It's not correct to say the remaining radical Militias are "Trump supporters." The group just arrested trying to kidnap the MI Gov stated repeatedly on Social Media that they hated Trump. They were anti-government, anti-police, anti-fascism, anti-capitalism and anarchist. I don't know how to categorize a group like that, but either way Trump/Barr had the FBI lock them up. Even if they did support Trump... they'll have to do it from behind bars because he definitely doesn't support them.

And yet right Wing militia, The Proud Boys, adopted Trumps assessment of all Right Wing militia with the Quote ‘Stand back and Stand by’ as their official motto.
Sorry, but you’re selling fake news

Chris Wallace ask Trump to ask them to "stand down." A shouting match followed. Trump said "Stand back" responding to the request for "stand down." The following morning he said the needed to "stand down." Compare getting one work wrong in a shouting match to Biden even trying to get a sentence out without gaffing everywhere. He has fully denounced all these groups and also went on to ask them to stand down. He does not support these groups, he arrests them. You can't run for President on the platform that includes these racists hate groups. Trump denounces them, but the left asks him daily to denounce. Its ridiculous.

No, it was in Response to Biden calling out Proud boys as a Right Wing militia. In response Trump says Proud boys, ‘ stand Down and Stand by‘
In military jargon, Stand by means, A preparatory command.
The order means a Unit will receive marching orders such as ‘ stand by to fire’
Unofficially used to tell Junior Officers to Stand by and wait
Hence, Conscious or unconsciously Trump mobilized Right Wing groups such as Wolverine Watchmen Who also were planning to kidnap Virginia Governor according to New FBI reports

Trump didn't walk into the debate with plans to give military commands to the Proud Boys. Wallace asked him to ask them to "Stand Down." It becomes somewhat chaotic with Wallace and Biden attacking Trump. He says, yes I'll tell them to stand back. He clarified he meant "Stand Down" the following morning.

You have 2 options. Either, Trump got the word wrong... said back, tried to correct, said by... then stopped trying to correct. A word fumble. Or, Trump purposely instructed groups he is actively arresting to prepare for attack. The 2nd option makes no sense.

BTW.. I didn't even notice he swapped stand down with stand back. I just saw him agree to what Wallace was asking. It wasn't until the following day when I saw the left spin this up that I even realized there was a problem here. In my view, the left took a small fumble in the middle of him condemning these groups and make the fumble into the story.

Best I can do is agree to disagree
If Obama would have done this, you would have no problem believing my point of view
