No Kings 2.0

[Sirius]

I actually like a lot of things about America and Americans.

But Trump isn't one of them. Trump isn't America.

And these "No Kings" protests in America are against Trump, quite specifically.

You see, the result of the last Presidential election was that 77.3 million people voted for Trump. However, there are 264.8 million citizens of voting age. That leaves 187.5 million citizens who did not vote for Trump.

I like him, reminds me of Leonidas, just airbrush some pecks and the resemblance is uncanny. He will return with his shield or on it

Kamala got 75 million of those.. That's 112 million that didn't vote for either of them. Maybe they didn't like the choices, maybe they were just too lazy to bother.

At least those No Kings folks got what they wanted.
We don't have a King. We have Trump and they'll just have to deal with it for 3 more years.

Your numbers are off, I don't trust the democrat central brain but it is close enough for this.

The adult population in the United States is projected to be around 247 million in 2025. This estimate is based on the overall population growth trends

77 million voted for trump. 247-77=170 So 170 didn't vote for trump 

75 million voted for biden harris 247-75=172 So 172 didn't vote for biden harris

The only reason trump won was because of the woke. Had they not forced gender indoctrination in schools and embarked on a political media and social media campaign pushing that crap. Trump would not have won. That simple.

I was talking about how legal citizens of the USA, and legal residents, and people who had valid current visas, are getting deported under rules that were supposed to be deporting only those who were not legally US citizens or legal residents.

I don't know of any citizens being deported. Do you have some sort of proof for that? Pretty sure the government can revoke a visa for just about any reason, or no reason.

And your country incarcerates more than just about any other country in the world - even allegedly repressive ones.
You are living in a police state, with your leaders saying you aren't, as they push for greater and greater control.

I am not sure where you are located. But I would bet Europe. You may or may not know this. Democracy and freedom are in decline all around the world. Especially in Europe.

The right to protest in the UK has been eroded in recent years - particularly in England and Wales - despite being protected under international law. In 2022, the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Act handed police in England and Wales broad powers to shut down protests and expanded criminal offences and punishments for peaceful protest activities.
This was followed by the even more draconian Public Order Act 2023 and the particularly controversial Serious Disruption Regulations 2023, regulations that were recently found by the High Court to be unlawful, but which remain in place while the government pursues an appeal.
Thanks to this authoritarian legislation, police can define almost any demonstration as “seriously disruptive” and impose restrictions on it. Peaceful tactics like locking on, tunnelling and even causing “serious annoyance” have been criminalised. New powers have been created to issue orders banning people from even attending protests.  
There has also been a steep rise in the use of facial recognition technology in the policing of protest. This is despite the UK Court of Appeal concluding in 2020 that the legal framework in place at the time for this technology violated human rights.
Hundreds of protesters have been arrested. Some have received long custodial sentences and many prosecutions remain pending. Following his visit to the UK in January this year, the UN Special Rapporteur on Environmental Defenders warned that environmental activists face a “severe crackdown” due to the repressive legislative framework and introduction of new criminal charges.
New stop and search powers, including suspicionless stop and search, can be used against people at or on the way to protests. Existing evidence highlights that stop-and-search powers are disproportionately used against Black and other minoritised people, itself a feature of an institutionally racist policing and criminal justice system. The expansion of these powers serves as a gateway for further racialised police encounters.

That is very close to accurate. Of those 264.8M, only 244.7M were eligible to vote. Of those, 156.8M cast countable ballots. Thus:

• 77.3M (31.6%): Donald Trump
  
• 75.0M (30.6%): Kamala Harris
  
• 4.5M (1.8%): Other Candidate
  
• 87.9 (36.0%): Fuck Your Kayfabe Bullshit

Fuck Your Kayfabe Bullshit for the win!

7 million protesting against the fair and accurate democratic election results.
The same people who whined about the few thousand J6 protestors doing the same thing.   
Oh the hypocrisy!

Seem to me like they are protesting to keep your democratic elections.

Hence the "No Kings" chants and title. 

Having to rebrand the event as something else could be considered somewhat hypocritical.

Perspective….
In the 2024 presidential election, 73.6% (or 174 million people) of the citizen voting-age population was registered to vote and 65.3% (or 154 million people) voted

Maybe these protesters should celebrate No Kings day on July 4th like the rest of us normal Americans.

The democratic elections are not in danger.
Unless you count the 7 million idiots who were out there protesting the election results which were fair and accurate.
THEY are the danger to democracy.

[Vermilion]

The Democrats kept voting against opening the government back up until the No Kings protest.
Now that it’s over and done with, what are the odds it’ll happen this week?
How will they spin finally voting to open it up again?

This is truly the worst batch of Democrats ever so it’s a tough one to gauge because they’ve been so unprecedented in their stupidity and hatred for all things Trump or America first.

Of course this 'no kings' speaker was a college professor ... anti-American marxist and with murdering tendencies.
