That's not true. Simply make a list of big voices on the Right, most have active social media.

Time to "Beef up" Internet security.

A. You're allowed to protest peacefully in this country.

B. If it goes beyond that, that's when cops are supposed to handle it.

C. They have been detained by police and an investigation is ongoing

well.... the problem arises when it does become their business and they have to fund a child until age 18 ... that due to irresponsible behavior on both the man and women... there should be no running for the man ... we need law to hold both fully accountable for the pregnancy as well as the well being of the child that is theirs....

a mandatory contraceptive program would work.... it could be mandated for either male or female ..or both.... but that would be seen as extreme law if it were passed.

One should never want to get the government further involved or at all. Any time bad behavior is incentivized there will be more of it. Welfare removed fathers from homes because the government is a reliable provider and that removed the responsibility from women and mothers to wisely choose their mates and establish long term family relationships. Public policy creates most of the problem we are seeing in society today by enabling poor behavior and covering bad choices.

I was looking at those yesterday. I wonder how good they are in the dark, like infra-red vision etc. I've a decent 4K drone now and like to upgrade to something with better battery reserve for distance and power in wind. The US models come with pepper spray (optional).

Have you looked into gas powered drones or hybrids for longer range?

Protesting is all good.... blocking roadways without a permit is against the law... its done every day and night all over the US.... they don't even enforce that law... Police are not and have not been enforcing laws since all this began and there is no excuse for it....

Yes... all of them IMO..... we do not need the problems they bring within our society.... Shut down hate speech sites, groups ..down as well.. IMO... i know that is unpopular with many... but i do not support hate speech or anything of its kind.

Well intentioned it may be but you don't want to give such power over people as it will be seized upon by bad elements. Speech is a basic way of expressing oneself and it should never be policed. There are provisions for when speech is criminalized but it is a different standard. Without people expressing themselves and solving things through speech the next step would be violence. There is no right not to be offended. That is why it is the first amendment of the constitution.

Sad state of what is happening.

Mob Chase Down A Citizen And Beat Him In His Car.
So the mob blocks the streets in LA, driver drives through pretty carefully with strobe flashing, the mob chases after him in multiple vehicles, box driver in, beat him, smash his car, driver escapes before they pull him out and police arrest the driver?!

you are right... its the last thing i would want to do is give that power away..... today is so different than any other time in history with people simply being totally out of control .... i don't know what the answer is to fixing the problems we have... i feel we don't have that long to try and figure it out though.

never mind that the driver was most likely in fear for their life .... this same thing has happened many times since this started... just so the protesters stay happy all is well with the cops.... counter protest and guaranteed some counter protesters are going to jail...

Sheriff Grady Has Message For BLM/ANTIFA
We need Americans like this in every state, county, and town, police departments all over America.
Political animals, governors, mayors, District Attorneys, allowing rioting and looting and letting criminals go without charges, need to be voted out and held accountable.

Serious drone action, definitely out of my price range ATM

There's been a few 'neighbourly' drone incidents in the Persian Gulf (International waters)

"We have the greatest people in the world, we have the greatest equipment in the world. We have the greatest ships, the most deadly ships, we don't want to have to use them, but they're the most deadly ships ever conceived," Trump told reporters. "And we hope for their sake they don't do anything foolish. If they do, they will pay a price like nobody's ever paid a price."​

"We have not lost any drone in the Strait of Hormuz nor anywhere else," Araqchi tweeted. "I am worried that USS Boxer has shot down their own UAS by mistake!"​
