I have to believe that throughout the US, there are millions of Democrats with whom I may politically disagree, but that are still Americans who have families, jobs, go to church (or not), have weekend barbecues, and are otherwise generally happy to be Americans. Can the DNC be so out of touch to alienate them by suggesting a 4th of July celebration at Mount Rushmore makes them all white supremacists (including the non-white dems)?
They are continuing Hillary's "deplorable" work and alienating millions of potential voters. I mean, 4th of July at Mount Rushmore. They might as well start wearing their Taliban t-shirts out in public.

If they wanted to divide this country to the point of civil war what do you think they would do differently?

Probably not real. Hal Turner makes right wing nut jobs look like lefty nut jobs if you look into his background.
It's been pretty routine for illegal fireworks to be used in the weeks leading up to and after both the 4th of July and New Years holidays. Everywhere I have lived across the country it's been quite common. Nothing new here.

Sounds like actions intended to commit arson and serious bodily injury. Deadly force is allowed.
Hopefully, this is just a rumor and they don't actually attempt it.

ANTIFA usually attacks in Hyenas like packs lone isolated individuals not whole herds.

So far (key words there) the rioters/looters have been content to keep their silliness downtown here in Portland.
Last week that changed when they went after Portland Police's North Precinct.
North Precinct attacked (https://www.kgw.com/article/news/local/protests/protesters-set-fire-to-police-precinct-damage-businesses-in-north-portland/283-59c6bd42-1bf1-47b9-9e9a-4d7c84f957f5)
Interestingly enough, North Portland has historically been a primarily black neighborhood, so the looting and arson that followed primarily impacted minority owned businesses.
We're far enough out in the 'burbs that I'm not horribly worried about ANTIFA/BLM/Whomever getting frisky in my particular neighborhood. However, I have all the AR mags topped off, I've talked with neighbors I trust (most of them) about *IF* (and everyone agrees that it's a miniscule probability) things get crazy squirrely what's our plan. We've got a couple of decent choke points into the neighborhood that would be easy to block off w/ vehicles, things along those lines. We spend a lot more time talking about other emergency preparedness type of stuff.

I figure as long as they are tolerated in one location, they are going to try to branch out until they are stopped. Hopefully the stopping doesn't get people put in jail.
If things get bad in your area, you probably will need people up and watching all night.

Yep. We also discussed the fact that if something like this *did* happen and they were stopped from entering the neighborhood, we would need to continue to watch and take precautions because I would not be in the least surprised to have an antifa thug lob a molotov cocktail at a house in the middle of the night.

"77% of national park visitors are white"
Maybe that's because 76.3% of Americans just happen to be white DUH! https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/table/US/PST045219

Teach them a new word. Endemic.

Word is that Trump is going to be giving a fiery speech tonight coming down hard on looters and statue destroyers. In the meantime, the left is blocking roadways with vehicles that have had their wheels removed in an effort to keep people from attending the rally.

How long before they combine that with firing on the people stopped or slowed down in the roadway? 'Cuz nothing seems to be getting less crazy this year.

Well, from updates it appears the protestors kept a bunch of Trump supporters from making it through the gates before they closed. Fifteen protestors arrested, but too little too late. They should have had tow trucks there 10 minutes after the wheels came off the blockading vehicles.
If Joe Biden ever gets the balls to hold a rally, I hope a bunch of people with five ton trucks show up and do the same thing to him.

Why would they bother? His rallies will be 90% media

The best thing the hard right could do is dox the hell out of these brownshirt goons. Then the problem sorts itself out.

Is starting forest fires
Is a meanie

Meanwhile at the AP
The entire MSM is touting Trump at Rushmore as evil racism. Luckily, the Internet is forever and there are quotes popping up from CNN and other hypocrites in 2016 and earlier where they talk about the majesty and greatness of Mount Rushmore. You can maybe take a guess at which politicians were giving speeches there at the time.

Diametrically opposed takes on Trump's speech yesterday:

I heard snippets and thought they were just excellent. Especially that Americans bow the knee for no man.

Trump needs to do more than just give a great speech.

Hasn't he been? He's already ordered Federal LE to protect Federal statues and other Federal property, and ordered the identification and prosecution of looters and vandals that have destroyed fed property. A lot of this stuff is really up to the states (states rights).
