It wasn't even nuanced. It was obvious what he meant imo. This was just another case of TDS sufferers taking everything Trump says in the worst way possible.
Yeah I think it shines light on why censorship is so insideous... When others decide how you should be interpreted (rather than your own intention) and regard their own wicked perception as fact, that's scary.
It made me interpret it that way so god damn it was effective. That being said, I figured shooting could mean anywhere from tear gas and rubber bullets to actual firearms if it were necessary to stop the violent mob that is looting and burning down Minneapolis, destroying the communities they care so much about lol
I just spent a year and a half building a business that I haven't been able to open because of the virus bullshit. If someone tried to loot this place I would shoot them in a heartbeat.
And suddenly the whole purpose of their censorship shows itself. Twitter, instead of showcasing the Presidents words much like a giant billboard in space, are now curating his words, like a painting in a museum. His words are supposed to speak for themselves, instead now you have a tour guide in the museum explaining to you what you're about to see before you see it. By the time you see it, you have preconceived notions and you don't even know what he said yet. "Next on our tour, the President threatens to shoot looters", the curtain flings back and there's the tweet, the idea that the President threatened to shoot looters still ringing in your ears as you read it. It's bullshit, and it's exactly what he was talking about the other day during his EO, and it's what T_D has been saying for years.
I agree. They specialize in pretzel logic. I believe their think tanks stay up at night or operate in shifts, trying to think of a "logical-sounding" way, to their followers anyway, to twist every single think the President or his followers say, to say it means something other than what it means. Like HRC's tweet today. The National Guard is brought in to stop the rioting & looting, before they destroy the city for no good reason. She says the President is "calling for violence against American citizens". And what would she do? The Left NEVER, EVER has a suggestion to help any situation, just criticism.
Clown World when you are just supposed to let people destroy whatever they want. And if you disagree with that sentiment, you're an evil racist. Because, according to that logic, rioting and destruction is how blacks express their anger?
He's not apologizing, he's explaining. nowhere does he say, "alright national guard, as soon as they start stealing some TV start killing those black people"
He's saying action a has a consequence of B. Every action has a reaction. Which is why you want to deploy the national guard, especially when people are so angry at the police.
RIght? Yeah I think I'm just going to start killing black people a few months before election. The fact that lefties can believe Trump (or anyone) would be that fucking stupid is pure projection.
He's right, he let's the Communists assume he's wrong and then he points out why he's right. He gives them every opportunity to get it right, and they bash themselves in the head over and over. He's trying as hard as he can to teach people how to win.
And it's entirely possible that he is the first one since the early 1800's. THis is what government is supposed to care about and I have just never seen that in my life.
I would hope that most people here realize that Floyd died by his own hands by now... He swallowed some kind of drugs that he had on him at the time so the cops wouldn't find it. He died 90 minutes after that video was filmed. Even if the cop didn't have his knee on his neck, he would've died.
Thought you guys were smart and cared about the truth, guess not... fine, be outraged for no reason like the retards on the left.
If you can't view the PDF, here is a screenshot of the section in question, it is on the third page. This document makes it sound like the officer is guilty but that is because this is their complaint against him.

I wouldn't be so quick to judge the downvotes you're getting are from regulars, or maybe it's people don't think it's fair to say he died by his own hand. Either way, your link to the complaint is legit and gets an up from me. Thanks!
You are welcome. This part is my opinion, I also don't think the officer put that much pressure on his neck. If you look at the video, the officer looks like he is putting most, if not all, of the pressure on his right knee. The knee not on his neck.
The family has already gotten millions from people donating to them and the city will most likely award them millions as well. Doesn't matter if they lose in court or not, they have pretty much already won.
If you can't view the PDF, here is a screenshot of the section in question, it is on the third page. This document makes it sound like the officer is guilty but that is because this is their complaint against him.
Thanks. It says he likely died from a combination of health problems, drugs, and the cops on top of him. They didn't choke him but they could have cut off blood circulation to his head. And he stopped moving and they couldn't find a pulse but yet they stayed on top of him for 2 or 3 more minutes. The cops still fucked up.
I’m going to remain centrist and not cast judgment until all the details are out. The dude could have killed himself with drugs, or one of the cops drugged him.
Either way, unless there is a video footage of him overdosing willingly, it’s all conjecture. We don’t know what happened in that precinct. Yet.
The
combined effects of Mr. Floyd being restrained by the police, his underlying health conditions and any
potential intoxicants in his system likely contributed to his death.
He wasn't being choked (that was obvious from the video) but kneeling on the neck could have cut off blood flow to his head. And why didn't they get off him after he stopped moving and breathing?
Your links do not show he swallowed drugs to hide it from the police. The examiner's initial finding say potentially intoxicating substances but do not prove he was under the influence of anything.
Additionally the other officer was concerned about asphyxiation and they found no pulse two minutes before relieving the knee from his neck.
If you have other corroborating information please share.
This was the complaint from the family against him, of course it wouldn't include that. This is just the most official thing I could find, I'll look and see if I can find anything else though.
If you can't view the PDF, here is a screenshot of the section in question, it is on the third page. This document makes it sound like the officer is guilty but that is because this is their complaint against him.
No not yet. The 911 call mentioned that Floyd was out of it, and the caller suggested that he might be drunk or something. Could be either but we don't know yet.
The document you linked to says that "any potential intoxicants in his system" may have contributed to his death. It does not say they found intoxicants in his system. Why aren't they specific about what they found? It should be easy to determine whether he had anything in his blood or not.
Also, it doesn't say he died 90 minutes later. It says they checked his pulse on the scene when he stopped moving and "couldn't find one." It also says he was "pronounced dead" at the hospital they took him to, not that he died there.
The toxicology report hasn't been released and I'm honestly not sure if it ever will be released. The city is clearly on the side of the family. As for why it doesn't say, this is the official complaint against the officer from the family.
"Police called EMTs around 8:30 p.m. and they arrived in six minutes to find an unconscious and unresponsive Floyd, according to Hennepin County Healthcare EMS Chief Marty Scheerer.
Paramedics and police eventually flipped Floyd over while he was still cuffed, placed him on a gurney and into an ambulance, where a responder released his hands.
Their decision to “load and go,” rather than triage Floyd on the spot, was likely based on their race against time, Scheerer said, adding that responders were likely unaware of how severe the situation had become.
Despite medical officials reportedly spending an hour trying to revive Floyd, he was pronounced dead at a local hospital at 9:25 p.m."
Here's the part where the media insists that they know what he meant better than he does. "You don't get to decide what you intended with your words, that's our job!"
I've come to the conclusion that whenever the left says that something we say is a "dog whistle", they are quite literally forming one of their own. Training their own hounds to slaver at the smallest mention of words and phrases.
"Nationalism!" Leftists obediently lose their entire minds
Everything Trump says is a secret decoder-ring letter to the KKK, but luckily leftists have broken the code because leftists are racists who can figure out hidden racist messages that Trump supporters can't understand.
Oh yeah, I've seen it a lot. I can't even comprehend the degree of hubris which convinces people that they're better qualified to interpret someone else's words than the person who actually said them. It's really a mind-boggling level of narcissism. It's even more worrisome that social media publishers are taking consequential action against people based on someone else's analysis of their own language. It doesn't matter what you meant, if somebody else finds it offensive then their opinion is given a higher status - so much so that you can actually be punished for motives you never really had - and that is a truly disturbing collapse of free speech.
Damn right, that was my first thought, flash back to ever conversation with an indoctrinated TDS sufferer.
They get to decide what words mean, and not you, or anyone else. And if they don't like what they think you meant, the conversation is pretty much pointless.
That's what they've been doing since he took office. Remember how long it took to implement his travel ban? The judge's reasoning was literally "Oh, but he REALLY means a Muslim ban." Not figuratively. Literally.
I can't help but think the un-controlled cesspool that was youtube and every other comment section on the internet in the mid 2000s, wasn't intentionally created to make people beg for censorship.
I've been an internet regular since around the early-mid 00's. I've gotta say that with the explosion of social media in the late 00's including the likes of Twitter and Facebook, the internet has not been nearly as good as it used to be.
Trump is a fucking mastermind lmao. He sets up the tweet that people would complain about by reeeeing out "OH HE WANTS TO GUN DOWN PROTESTORS" but then he Geotuspills them on how some of the rioters were even shooting themselves. Even I bit my lip a little thinking that maybe that tweet was a bit too much, but then he completely contextualizes it in his favor to catch the hypocrites that don't care about the rioters shooting other people in the protests. Legend.
Like honestly the 4d chess move meme is real. He really does plan at minimum 10 moves ahead with contingency plans for every possibility. Knocking out 2 twitter bird cucks with one stone.
These type of women aren't the women you bring home to mother.
Most of these women are losers themselves, otherwise they would smarten up and find a real man who will stick around, provide, and take responsibility. But social media and gov gibs have destroyed that for most women. They are just as pathetic and useless as the idiots flashing money and guns all over Facebook / Twitter.
Who would've ever guessed that a group of rioters smiling while burning a police precinct to the ground would also likely engage in shooting and murdering innocent people if enforcement didn't step in? It was pretty obvious to he was saying that we need to nip this in the bud before things get even more out of hand.
Which is why even though Trump didn't mean it that way, rioters who are acting the least bit violent should be shot. It would stop the riot and save lives. And this is how it used to be handled!
But twitter, the purveyor of facts, must have known exactly what was in trumps mind when he tweeted! How could they have been wrong? Surely they will retract their opinion check..
Facebook has rolled out their own 'opinion check' now they warn you about your posts and give you the choice of a 30 day ban or removing your post. I can't wait for FB to die.
Always assuming the worst is why we have so much division, especially in Trump's presidency. They always go to the worst possible scenario even when their take makes zero sense at all.
This is especially true with paranoia regarding racism. "That guy was a complete dick to me...must be racist." When really most of the world is shitty. People are shitty. To quote Bill Barr we're all out here eating a shit sandwich. It's similar to when a church goer tells someone they are being rude to them so they're facing persecution. No, the world just sucks. People aren't nice. Everyone goes through life getting treated like crap by at least some people.
Yes. He should never apologize or try to "explain" what he really meant to them. If he's asked about it later, then all he needs to say is "People tend to get shot during riots and looting. It can be from other citizens, police or even guardsmen. I wanted people not to put themselves in that situation. That's all I have to say."
The riots are being planned and supported by the far left.
Nothing to do with anyones death at the end of the day. The far left just wants to cause chaos. It's already known many of the people rioting in the area are not from there.
I wouldn't expect this to end anytime soon. They want to show black people being shot by military personnel. It'll be a Kent State type of narrative that they'll use and try to separate black and other minority voters from siding with Trump. These people are going all in now. Be ready for more because their CV scamdemic has fallen flat and the Dems look like complete tyrants and incompetent leaders to average Americans. Trump came out unscathed and they need him to make a critical mistake between now and election day.
The thing that sucks is that a lot of the narrative still trying to say hes lying is not only that he waited so long to make the correction but specifically that he had a televised thing at 2PM and didnt mention it there. Like I said he should have addressed this first thing when he woke up and it would have corrected a lot of the damage. Especially with people claiming it started from some racist narrative in Miami in 1968. He waited too long IMO but its still better than nothing
And also, they'll lie about and twist anything he says. I agree that concision would help him to a great degree. Say less, do more. The liars are funded with billions, they have access to millions of minds. Trump has a lot of Twitter followers, but it isn't always as effective as the liar media at getting a message out.
He needs to be influencing leaders, building up the next generation and let people like Grennell and Fitton kick ass and take names.
The enemy thought he meant he was going to deploy the National Guard to massacre protesters because that's what they would do in his position. Always remember that they're projecting on a level so pathological that the word "projecting" doesn't even begin to cover it.
I’m so pissed I can hardly breathe. This afternoon our Chicago governor Fat Fuck was fed a question by a gushing media troglodyte about how he felt the President was handling the Minnesota happenings, like that has jack shit to do with what he’s doing to Illinois, but anyway. He proceeded to call the president every label like misogynist racist xenophobic, all wrong and unfair. And he just could hardly speak he was so disgusted by how badly President Trump is handling it and I just wanted to throw a brick at the TV. He doesn’t care about anybody but his Chicago Democrat friends.
Looting leads to shooting, and that’s why a man was shot and killed in Minneapolis on Wednesday night - or look at what just happened in Louisville with 7 people shot. I don’t want this to happen, and that’s what the expression put out last night means....
In Trump's case it's entirely credible that he meant exactly this, and didn't realize the statement connecting looting with shooting originated as a threat from law enforcement to prevent Miami race riots in the 60s
It's also entirely credible that he meant both exactly this and the original meaning simultaneously, as he often (intentionally and with great precision and unmatched skill) communicates on multiple levels at once
IDGAF how he meant it and frankly, if he meant it as “looters/criminals will be killed,” more power to him. Tired of how weak this country has become. I watched as a cucked, bitch ass mayor told his police force to run away and allow the station to be destroyed. I saw as police with nightsticks stood around doing NOTHING with said sticks. It doesn’t take a person to study crisis situations to see the fucking difference between a person marching and holding a sign in protest to a person with a bandana on their face, smashing open a Target cash register. Wild animals that attack or are out of control should be put down, period. Fuck em and fuck how fucking weak the people in this country have become.
The fact that he has to even explain such a logical concept is a testament to both the media's slimy duplicity, as well as how effectively the establishment has dumbed everyone down over the last few decades. "No child left behind" my ass 🤦♂️
CNN right now in full scale TDS with what essentially is a special on why Trump is racist and how his “looting” tweet indicates he intends to send the military to kill people. Wtf.
The fact Trump has to explain himself is sad because it was obvious from the get-go. Did the media think he meant if they looted we need to begin shooting them off? Bizarre.
And with those Tweets, he showed the world that Twitter was about to get fucked. If you have money tied up in them and you haven’t pulled out yet, I would.
When he said "when the looting starts, the shooting starts" I immediately thought of the looters that had already been shot. He's right. That literally happened.
I called it. Trump keeps his language purposely ambiguous to cause a firestorm
That’s what I told my wife. He nuanced it so as to cause Twitter fools to overreact.
It wasn't even nuanced. It was obvious what he meant imo. This was just another case of TDS sufferers taking everything Trump says in the worst way possible.
Riots lead to violence? Pure shock I say!
Absolute scandal!!
You know what happened next?
TWO SCOOPS!
Can you believe that crazy shit? What next?
Protests sir, barely unruly
Housing fires of peace.
Yeah I think it shines light on why censorship is so insideous... When others decide how you should be interpreted (rather than your own intention) and regard their own wicked perception as fact, that's scary.
It made me interpret it that way so god damn it was effective. That being said, I figured shooting could mean anywhere from tear gas and rubber bullets to actual firearms if it were necessary to stop the violent mob that is looting and burning down Minneapolis, destroying the communities they care so much about lol
I just spent a year and a half building a business that I haven't been able to open because of the virus bullshit. If someone tried to loot this place I would shoot them in a heartbeat.
Looters should be shot.
I took it to mean don’t loot if you don’t want escalation.
And suddenly the whole purpose of their censorship shows itself. Twitter, instead of showcasing the Presidents words much like a giant billboard in space, are now curating his words, like a painting in a museum. His words are supposed to speak for themselves, instead now you have a tour guide in the museum explaining to you what you're about to see before you see it. By the time you see it, you have preconceived notions and you don't even know what he said yet. "Next on our tour, the President threatens to shoot looters", the curtain flings back and there's the tweet, the idea that the President threatened to shoot looters still ringing in your ears as you read it. It's bullshit, and it's exactly what he was talking about the other day during his EO, and it's what T_D has been saying for years.
I agree. They specialize in pretzel logic. I believe their think tanks stay up at night or operate in shifts, trying to think of a "logical-sounding" way, to their followers anyway, to twist every single think the President or his followers say, to say it means something other than what it means. Like HRC's tweet today. The National Guard is brought in to stop the rioting & looting, before they destroy the city for no good reason. She says the President is "calling for violence against American citizens". And what would she do? The Left NEVER, EVER has a suggestion to help any situation, just criticism.
Like seth rich? Murderous cunt
That is something I wouldn't ask her ... to her face anyway. But yeah, you're absolutely right.
Agreed. People who thought he meant that they are going to start shooting the looters are just insane.
Um....I sort of think looters SHOULD be shot....
But I'm not suggesting that's what Prez said...or what he meant.
Clown World when you are just supposed to let people destroy whatever they want. And if you disagree with that sentiment, you're an evil racist. Because, according to that logic, rioting and destruction is how blacks express their anger?
100%
The looting would stop instantly.
But MSNBC told me that phrase was a racist dog whistle? They wouldn't lie to me, would they?
What did muh Twitter fact check say?
He's not apologizing, he's explaining. nowhere does he say, "alright national guard, as soon as they start stealing some TV start killing those black people"
He's saying action a has a consequence of B. Every action has a reaction. Which is why you want to deploy the national guard, especially when people are so angry at the police.
RIght? Yeah I think I'm just going to start killing black people a few months before election. The fact that lefties can believe Trump (or anyone) would be that fucking stupid is pure projection.
They always project blame for the things they do.
Meanwhile the left will defend the looters. Wonder what percentage of them vote?
110% thanks to ballot harvesting. Haven't you been keeping up? /s
He's right, he let's the Communists assume he's wrong and then he points out why he's right. He gives them every opportunity to get it right, and they bash themselves in the head over and over. He's trying as hard as he can to teach people how to win.
He is very easily understood by anyone who accepts that he actually cares about his countrymen.
And it's entirely possible that he is the first one since the early 1800's. THis is what government is supposed to care about and I have just never seen that in my life.
Teddy roosevelt.
And reagan. And although he was silly, Carter.
It was spoken as a fact, not as a statement. It’s very simple, nobody should have any problem with this other than the haters, and those looking to cause trouble on social media. Honor the memory of George Floyd!
I would hope that most people here realize that Floyd died by his own hands by now... He swallowed some kind of drugs that he had on him at the time so the cops wouldn't find it. He died 90 minutes after that video was filmed. Even if the cop didn't have his knee on his neck, he would've died.

I agree with you. As always, it’s important to wait for the info the come out. This is not looking good for Floyd.
The family has already gotten millions from people donating to them and the city will most likely award them millions as well. Doesn't matter if they lose in court or not, they have pretty much already won.

Thanks.
Aha sorry have to update you now. Autopsy’s been done, and the preliminary report is out.
Neither strangulation nor asphyxiation caused his death. He may have been intoxicated, but the full report is not out yet.
Thank you for the info and the link. This will be explosive...if the final autopsy report actually exonerates the cop!

Literally the knee jerk response.
"So you're saying that all looters are black?"
CNN: ....angry NPC face...
Honestly that's every leftist. They spin your words and say "what we think you meant by your words offended us".
Oh yeah, I've seen it a lot.

Mind-explodingly that says more about how left-tits think than anything else.

Shit me too then. Taylor Swift should replace GW on Mount Rushmore.
That's so funny. "Shooting looters", is interpreted by Taylor Swift as "shooting blacks". Hmmm...who is making assumptions about who the looters are?

Lmao yeah right

Twitter is the worst site ever on the internet.
Most toxic user base ever.
I can't help but think the un-controlled cesspool that was youtube and every other comment section on the internet in the mid 2000s, wasn't intentionally created to make people beg for censorship.

100% agree. I think it really went downhill after iphone got big and everyone got 3G data.
now you got high school kids posting from school , telling everyone they are dumb and how the world really works.
Trump is a fucking mastermind lmao. He sets up the tweet that people would complain about by reeeeing out "OH HE WANTS TO GUN DOWN PROTESTORS" but then he Geotuspills them on how some of the rioters were even shooting themselves. Even I bit my lip a little thinking that maybe that tweet was a bit too much, but then he completely contextualizes it in his favor to catch the hypocrites that don't care about the rioters shooting other people in the protests. Legend.
He was also trolling Twitter and just daring them to flag/censor it.
Like honestly the 4d chess move meme is real. He really does plan at minimum 10 moves ahead with contingency plans for every possibility. Knocking out 2 twitter bird cucks with one stone.
They did. Does Trump know they did?
I'm almost sick of winning. JK!
He’s always 10 steps ahead of the dunces and dolts.
Imagine not being 10 steps ahead of pantifa retards, hysterical trannies, and nipple-ringed governors while sound asleep.
These type of women aren't the women you bring home to mother.
Most of these women are losers themselves, otherwise they would smarten up and find a real man who will stick around, provide, and take responsibility. But social media and gov gibs have destroyed that for most women. They are just as pathetic and useless as the idiots flashing money and guns all over Facebook / Twitter.
Losers ha dey drugs tho
Are you assuming the women have no problems of their own? I think they realize it and so it anyway.
for some reason it took me two reads to realize you were using "fucking" the verb not "fucking" the adjective.
Are you expecting them to take responsibility?
Who would've ever guessed that a group of rioters smiling while burning a police precinct to the ground would also likely engage in shooting and murdering innocent people if enforcement didn't step in? It was pretty obvious to he was saying that we need to nip this in the bud before things get even more out of hand.
I mean they were kidnapping women in the streets right in front of everyone.
Cops aren't going to be there to save these people.

Which is why even though Trump didn't mean it that way, rioters who are acting the least bit violent should be shot. It would stop the riot and save lives. And this is how it used to be handled!
In this context, shooting looters would almost certainly result in more long-term deaths. Like an all out race war.
The stats aren't racist man, you're being prudent.
Even some of my TDS friends are WTFing at Twitter's stupidity. Good job Publisher!
But twitter, the purveyor of facts, must have known exactly what was in trumps mind when he tweeted! How could they have been wrong? Surely they will retract their opinion check..
Facebook has rolled out their own 'opinion check' now they warn you about your posts and give you the choice of a 30 day ban or removing your post. I can't wait for FB to die.
I suggested this on Twatter. Got called an idiot. Those who refuse to at least attempt to view things from other angles are actually the idiots.
Always assuming the worst is why we have so much division, especially in Trump's presidency. They always go to the worst possible scenario even when their take makes zero sense at all.
This is especially true with paranoia regarding racism. "That guy was a complete dick to me...must be racist." When really most of the world is shitty. People are shitty. To quote Bill Barr we're all out here eating a shit sandwich. It's similar to when a church goer tells someone they are being rude to them so they're facing persecution. No, the world just sucks. People aren't nice. Everyone goes through life getting treated like crap by at least some people.
Agreed!
Capitalism incentivizes outrage.
Huh?
Clearly twitter had considered a full accounting for what trump was thinking, right?? Lol
Hey look, black on black mass shooting once again, which will totally be ignored by media and leftist social media NPCs.
He’s a wizard at marketing/branding/PR. Literally the GOAT
Twitter is Asshoe
DONALD TRUMP DONT TRUST TWITTER
TWITTER IS ASSHOE
This almost sounds like he's explaining himself to the social media mob. He doesn't and never needs to do this.
America has your back, Mr. President.
I think it was a trap he set for them, now he’s boasting that the fell in the trap
Yes. He should never apologize or try to "explain" what he really meant to them. If he's asked about it later, then all he needs to say is "People tend to get shot during riots and looting. It can be from other citizens, police or even guardsmen. I wanted people not to put themselves in that situation. That's all I have to say."
The riots are being planned and supported by the far left.
Nothing to do with anyones death at the end of the day. The far left just wants to cause chaos. It's already known many of the people rioting in the area are not from there.
They have bused in Antifa terrorists.
I wouldn't expect this to end anytime soon. They want to show black people being shot by military personnel. It'll be a Kent State type of narrative that they'll use and try to separate black and other minority voters from siding with Trump. These people are going all in now. Be ready for more because their CV scamdemic has fallen flat and the Dems look like complete tyrants and incompetent leaders to average Americans. Trump came out unscathed and they need him to make a critical mistake between now and election day.
Best President ever
Good move... Now let's send the National guard to Twitter headquarters...
Agreed 100%
The thing that sucks is that a lot of the narrative still trying to say hes lying is not only that he waited so long to make the correction but specifically that he had a televised thing at 2PM and didnt mention it there. Like I said he should have addressed this first thing when he woke up and it would have corrected a lot of the damage. Especially with people claiming it started from some racist narrative in Miami in 1968. He waited too long IMO but its still better than nothing
And also, they'll lie about and twist anything he says. I agree that concision would help him to a great degree. Say less, do more. The liars are funded with billions, they have access to millions of minds. Trump has a lot of Twitter followers, but it isn't always as effective as the liar media at getting a message out.
He needs to be influencing leaders, building up the next generation and let people like Grennell and Fitton kick ass and take names.
Looting leads to rooftop Koreans.
Then freeze the assets of George Soros
Drug warrant being served ended up with a lady shot to death with no explanation for why her house was targeted, why she was shot...
So people took to the streets. But then someone had a beef with someone else, so he had to start shooting.
Really great way to take an issue, shit on it and prevent the root cause from being fixed as everyone focuses on the violent aftermath.
Keep up!
Anyone who needs his tweets interpreted is a fucking retard.
That was how I took it from the start: "Y'all fools keep lootin', the business owners gonna start shootin'."
And/or the looters will start shooting each other over stealing the best shit.
I never took it to mean he was going to send in troops to shoot the looters.
(if he was, he wouldn't announce it anyway)
They’ll never understand just how many steps behind POTUS they really are at any given time
The enemy thought he meant he was going to deploy the National Guard to massacre protesters because that's what they would do in his position. Always remember that they're projecting on a level so pathological that the word "projecting" doesn't even begin to cover it.
Well put. We often say "projecting" ....but it is, indeed, pathological in nature.
I keep trying to come up with a better word for it than projection but I don't think there is one.
Sad he had to explain this. Fucking leftists
twitter incites violence by censoring content!
I stand with our President Donald J. Trump.
I’m so pissed I can hardly breathe. This afternoon our Chicago governor Fat Fuck was fed a question by a gushing media troglodyte about how he felt the President was handling the Minnesota happenings, like that has jack shit to do with what he’s doing to Illinois, but anyway. He proceeded to call the president every label like misogynist racist xenophobic, all wrong and unfair. And he just could hardly speak he was so disgusted by how badly President Trump is handling it and I just wanted to throw a brick at the TV. He doesn’t care about anybody but his Chicago Democrat friends.
So instead of one dead black man there are now 9 and counting? Gee that will sure show all us whities./s And thank God for gun control in blue cities.
Dont Trumpsplain to me, Trump! Reeeee
Explaining logic to a libtard is like teaching quantum mechanics to a dog.
I literally laughed out loud!!!
That's a quote from Walter Headley, the Miami police chief back in '67 during the Miami riots.
How many crows have to die just bc the media and leftwing must keep eating them.
In Trump's case it's entirely credible that he meant exactly this, and didn't realize the statement connecting looting with shooting originated as a threat from law enforcement to prevent Miami race riots in the 60s
It's also entirely credible that he meant both exactly this and the original meaning simultaneously, as he often (intentionally and with great precision and unmatched skill) communicates on multiple levels at once
IDGAF how he meant it and frankly, if he meant it as “looters/criminals will be killed,” more power to him. Tired of how weak this country has become. I watched as a cucked, bitch ass mayor told his police force to run away and allow the station to be destroyed. I saw as police with nightsticks stood around doing NOTHING with said sticks. It doesn’t take a person to study crisis situations to see the fucking difference between a person marching and holding a sign in protest to a person with a bandana on their face, smashing open a Target cash register. Wild animals that attack or are out of control should be put down, period. Fuck em and fuck how fucking weak the people in this country have become.
Buh buh buh buh, Hillary and the celebrities said that he was telling the national guard to kill innocent protesters!
Twitter ignored my explanation when they suspended my nice guy real name account for BS
The fact that he has to even explain such a logical concept is a testament to both the media's slimy duplicity, as well as how effectively the establishment has dumbed everyone down over the last few decades. "No child left behind" my ass 🤦♂️
CNN right now in full scale TDS with what essentially is a special on why Trump is racist and how his “looting” tweet indicates he intends to send the military to kill people. Wtf.
As opposed to "sure, go ahead and loot and there will be no consequences!" Cant please anyone I tell ya.
The fact Trump has to explain himself is sad because it was obvious from the get-go. Did the media think he meant if they looted we need to begin shooting them off? Bizarre.
Yes the media did believe that. So do lefties. They are mentally deranged.
Everybody with a brain understood what he meant from the moment he said it.
Everybody in Clown World thought he was inciting violence.
its so sad that he even has to explain this
Will any of these assholes apologize for spewing their bullshit? No
And with those Tweets, he showed the world that Twitter was about to get fucked. If you have money tied up in them and you haven’t pulled out yet, I would.
When he said "when the looting starts, the shooting starts" I immediately thought of the looters that had already been shot. He's right. That literally happened.
