When does setting fire to buildings in the name of a political agenda make the transition from protest to riot to terrorism?

a good question. Truthfully, how it is viewed in retrospect seems to matter more than how it is viewed in the moment.

40 years from now, when all the dust has settled, we will know if the burning of Cities by far left groups were acts seeded on the right side of history.

People are just pissed right now, and have been for a long time. It doesnt seem to matter what reality is for a lot of these miscreants. They just want to watch the world burn because their lives likely are not that good.

Best wishes to all the good people who have decided to stay in Washington - I just couldnt see a future there.

Washington state seems like one of the few Democratic ran states I thought was OK. Colorado being the other than comes to mind. California and Illinois get worse every time I go. SAD because Chicago used to be my favorite big city before the N words made it a war zone

If you are not working on a week day you are defying the state and thus a terrorist

Only if its right wing. It's all about building a narrative. You're not suppose to remember the riots in 2020 with the burning and looting.

That sounds fine really. Two wrongs don't make a right.
