The GOP wants you to believe the threats of violence with guns by the right were "peaceful protests protected by the second amendment" while the No Kings protests with bubbles, rainbows and costumes are "violent"

Careful there Snow White, that sounds like socialism. Shouldn't those squirrels get a job?

We all know right wing protests with guns and threats of violence are "free speech," while left wing protests with bubbles and costumes are "terroristic"
Right wing protest with guns demanding the end of lockdown by threatening violence No kings protest with kids and bubbles and rainbows

Charlie Kirk's own thoughts on gun deaths in America... "It's worth it"
You will never live in a society when you have an armed citizenry and you won't have a single gun death, Kirk says at a Turning Point USA Faith event on Wednesday as reported by media matters for America. That's nonsense. It's drivel. But I am - I think it's worth it. I think it's worth to have a cost of, unfortunately some gun deaths every single year so we can have the second amendment to protect our other God given rights. That is a prudent deal. It is traditional. Nobody talk like this. They live in a complete alternate universe.

Just texted this to all my Mpls homies!
Mayor Frey might be handing out high fives at Pride... but here is a rainbow flag of reasons why we DON’T RANK FREY in the upcoming election: For the election on November 4, remember: MPLS has ranked- choice voting! That means you can rank Omar Fateh, DeWayne Davis, and Jazz Hampton (all progressive candidates for mayor) 1–3 in your preferred order and DON’T RANK FREY! In Feb., Frey failed to rebuke a minister for using homophobic & threatening language toward a gay City Council member, since the minister supported Frey & the victim didn’t. This was just two months after Frey had vetoed funding for an LGBTQIA+ mental health program, derisively calling it a “pet project” and “yoga at the park.” bit.ly/FreySilence - tiny.cc/MentalHealthVeto Frey ran on a campaign of ending homelessness, but instead of finding housing for people who desperately need it, he has used the MPD to brutally clear encampments and spent big city $$$ filling vacant lots with rubble. bit.ly/EncampmentClearances Just weeks ago, Frey failed to declare a shelter-in-place for N. Mpls as a killer moved freely through the neighborhood and the surrounding (whiter) suburbs warned people to shelter in place. Frey lied while running for reelection about ending the use of no-knock warrants in Mpls. When Amir Locke was killed, it emerged that the practice was still used. As a “strong mayor,” Frey has exclusive power over the MPD. bit.ly/FreyLiedAmirDied Frey harvested data from sign-ups for the 2012 Big Gay Race to create his own mailing list for his Ward 3 City Council run without disclosing to race enrollees that he was doing so. Frey enthusiastically courts Republican donors via the “We ‹ Minneapolis” PAC: bit.ly/WhoFundsFrey

That is what it's like to live in Minneapolis when everyone screeches about how dangerous it is to live here and how we can't even walk outside without getting murdered...
