Comments by "" (@monkeybusiness1999) on "Thoughts on Planned Protests at All 50 State Capitols" video.

Everyone realizes that no matter what happens Trump supporters will be blamed regardless. Even if the crowds are 100% Aunt Fanny. The real danger to our country now is the lack of hope & a future. The Democrats have demoralized people to breaking point, esp by making it very clear their plans for conservatives & Trump supporters. That said, the "When you have nothing, you have nothing left to lose" mentality may be setting in for many. Thinking this IS a no-win powder keg situation & no longer care. The despair is real, you can hear it in people's voices. And passing may mean little when Constitutional & human rights are being openly "disolved" by these greedy heartless selfish politicians, sadly. These are dark times for everyone, just as "B" said". And his tools, the media corporations & their mouthpieces, are 99% responsible for it. These cowards will be the only ones grabbing popcorn & enjoying the show. And benefiting from the p*in of others. I hope to God people use common sense too but Congress has erased such thoughts & for good reason. They want to make bad examples of good people.

It's a no win situation - show up to proclaim & save your Const Rights & pay for it. Don't show up & lose your Const Rights & pay for it. People are so disheartened & sad right now, specifically because of what Congress & media have done to our country that... You can finish this sentence in your mind. We all understand the manipulation being played out now & why. Which, to me, now falls under cri*es against humanity.

@TRAVEL RS14 I actually agree with you - it's a set-up by MSM & Dems. If people do decide to protest regardless - leave the guns at home. It takes incredible bravery to do it, yes, but understand carrying will be used as an excuse to pay terribly. And record it for legacy - "Hi, I'm John/Jane Smith, I have no weapons. I protest peacefully, unarmed." The last thing Democrats want on their hands is dealing with the fall-out of more g*n'd down unarmed protestors. Even if they're T.S.ers. Because then yes, there will be a furry of chaos to the point of actual civil w*r. They will be running for their li*es. (Remember Ghandi's approach? His followers were treated badly, to say the least, when they protested. But in the end his strategy worked.)

@TRAVEL RS14 You didn't misunderstand, no worries, I am very divided right now. I know that sitting back & not standing up for our Constitutional & human Rights will be used by the Left as a message of defeat. And embolden them to carry out even more abuses upon everyone. Some that may be sadly irreversible for a very long time. (Packing the SC, for one.) Peacefully protesting? It may give citizens a sense of control over their lives & future - even if it ends "unwell." As you say, theater will play out whether peaceful protestors show up or not. But having a one-sided crowd, without witnesses to document their illegal behavior, is very dangerous too. As I say, it's a weighty decision that should be made very carefully. But peacefully & non-threatening if people decide to go.

@Dunge0n Yes, mainly because he was able to influence his people to calm down & act peacefully when the British could no longer manage their abusive control alone. The point is, the strategy worked & eventually saved many lives & livelihoods - for the short term anyway. And did get the occupying Brits out of India. (I know there's much more to what you're saying, this is just an brief exple blurb.)

@umiluv Oh no, I don't believe people have given up at all. Just the opposite. (From sadness & upset can come positive action. This I believe.)

@TRAVEL RS14 You are exactly right in all you say. But too many people are tired & fed up now. There comes a time when people are forced to either s*it or get off the pot. Relying on one man & a handful of his backers (?) to do this for us was unrealistic & a totally unfair expectation to put upon him. Esp as hard as he did try to help us & the entire country - including liberal Democrats. Right now "supporters" turning against him out of fear of leftist retribution are despicable cowards. Who wants to be one of those? Not many. Americans still have some backbone & self respect. The left knows it too - it's why they're actively parading soft-headed screaming goofballs out in front of cameras for media opps. Chucky for one. Sane Americans, or any human being, do not behave that way. Chucky can push his fake narrative but it's doubtful that many are buying it anymore. Even leftists sitting on the sidelines see something wrong. It's SM trolls & MSM yelling the loudest.

@TRAVEL RS14 When "Sept" happened we were a calm, happy & fairly peaceful country - meaning, oblivios & naive. But at least we weren't brawling each other in the streets, like now. People who do awful things don't care whether we're getting along or not, they strike when it's most expedient for them. That said, I do agree that the current focus on civil unrest unfolding now is prime striking time for trouble. The problem is that the current incoming admin may be the ones fully responsible for allowing it. So, do we stand by & let it happen again, if that's what they intend? Because God knows CV is no longer an accepted excuse to keep people supressed. Regardless, anything can & will be used as an excuse for martial law & punishment of innocent people. How many are willing to gamble our country away under such awful compromise? It's not an easy question to answer with certainty right now. And that's what makes things so precarious, the unknown & feeling of lack of control over one's life. Also, the US cannot "re-set" to what it never was. It can only be fundamentally torn apart & rebuilt into something else. So far the interior of the building as been gu*ted. How many are going to join to block the parked wrecking ball? The visual joke is now reality.)
