How far is this going to escalate? As with these mobs. there are those taking advantage of the protests that are looting as well, damage to property...etc.

Would it just go away if we ignored it ??? ??? ???
I agree with hookedspur. These people are getting way to much attention from the media. Leave them alone and they may go away. I also think that as long as they are not breaking any laws, have at it. But... when they start camping out with no toilets, etc., then it's time to put the kabosh on them. If they would put that much effort into finding a job, they wouldn't be in the mess that they are in. Enough already..

I think most stuff would like all this celebrity crap and most other idiots of the world if there wasn't a TV camera there to give them attention no one would know or care about it.

I fear that this is the real world "zombie" hordes that everyone is fearing without the fictitious undead. History channel over the halloween weekend went into detail on the fear of Hordes and what is does to the general public's mental state. Mongols, Ghengis Khan, The Roman empire etc all were hordes in retrospect. Invading unknown lands and taking what they want. This has been what pushes the Zombie type fear of the masses of people that gather for this type of activity. These folks just want to be heard but the usual elements that take advantage of these situations to loot and tear up property are gonna make for an unstable mass. When it spills into more rural areas and someone crosses the wrong group of folks or landowners that just want to be left alone to take care of their families without outside influence..We are liable to see some clashes. I'm sure most of us here harbor that "not on my property" attitude.
You guys are dead on with the media comments...
Yep, looks just like the 60's...and I believe it will get bigger, people are fed up with the govt. and greed.
I cant imagine what this is doing to gun sales.. maybe this will actually help rebound the economy..Every other news channel is covering handgun CC permits or groups urging women to arm themselves..
I've heard it reported that there have been up to 7 reported cases of sexual assault/rape thus far. Store windows have been smashed, private property defaced... Anyone not completely brainwashed by the anarchist mentality should be able to see that their once "peaceful" protests have escalated. With the liberal left in control of most readily available media sources and endorsement from the whitehouse for their cause, it's highly unlikely it will be ignored.
:agreed: stirred up and probably even inittiated by the lawless marxist in power. Widespread enough and violent enough, martial law, no elections. Its already been talked about for months. Heck, as far as I can tell he don't need martial law. If the dictator says no elections, then no elections. Who's going to make him have them, the communist judges thats been appointed? Anyway at LEAST 40% of americans would vote for him today. Plus all the illegals in those states where you don't have to have ID to vote as many times as you like. It stinks folks. It stinks to high heaven. All the people that lived through it in other countries and fled to the US smell it. Why can't we? Our forefathers smelled it,"when we get piled upon one another in large sities, as in Europe, we shall become as corrupt as Europe". No government has ever been more corrupt than ours is today.
