...congregating at the state capitol building.

If you ever wonder how Trump will stay in power, here is his demographic. They will keep Agent Orange at the top.

Sorry, but what a daft post.

You do realise that once you have reverted to name calling you have lost the argument?

[Bazile]

Name calling ?
There is a lot of that on here from the regulars

[Mozz71]

Really? Does that make every post that mentions the aBBC, the EUSSR or "Remoaners" a lost cause too? Or is it one rule for some, a different one for everyone else?

[Ken4155]

Typical Americans. Wonder how many relatives of the state's 3,788 dead were at the protest? However, the only gun-toting I saw in the video were by the armed officers in the building.

[Mozz71]

There are two photos in the link I provided Ken. One is ambiguous and could be any protest, but the other seems that it was taken from inside the Statehouse.

Wonder if they read this story

Well FF, I'm not going to crow about a man dying, but that does seem the definition of irony.

[naomi24]

There's more than a method in the madness.

[CrapAtCryptics]

Thats always assuming they can read

[youngmafbog]

Oh aren't you all so superior.

Good Lord take a hard look at yourselves.

Moss, yes name calling does occur regularly but putting it in the OP rather indicates you are not up for a reasoned debate. Perhaps this would be more suited to chatterbank?

[Bobbisox1]

I wouldn’t fancy having to take the temperature of a snarling protestor “” Err hang on a few seconds , I’ll just take your temperature before letting you in””

// yes name calling does occur regularly but putting it in the OP rather indicates you are not up for a reasoned debate//

I'm always up for reasoned debate YMB, but rarely get it recently as most threads here tend to decend into chaos. I personally think you're splitting hairs and truth be told, it I referred to someone you disliked in similar terms you wouldn't have battered an eyelid at it.

[Mozz71]

Well played ZM, well played.

[MartinMillar]

Nowt so strange as folk

//as most threads here tend to decend into chaos//
Well, I wouldn't try to "debate" the negative on that point.

[jim360]

Some of the protesters were definitely armed -- not difficult to find pictures of it -- but it's worth noting that openly carrying firearms in Michigan is legal.

[Zacs-Master]

It says that carrying arms in the statehouse is also legal, in the article.

[jim360]

I suppose I mean "is legal in Michigan".
