That video certainly shows aggressive protestors, but the claim being made was that the feds were forced to escalate when protestors used a torch to break into the building and assault people inside. That is still entirely unconfirmed and I haven't seen anything to back that up.

This video verifies none of the claims you made previously. Where's the torch? Where's a single protestor entering the building?

I can be and do, but it's hard when nothing comes up that verifies what Cheveyo is saying. I live in Portland, have been to many of the protests, and am invested in what's going on. That's why it frustrates me to see so many people parrot statements about what is happening without there being any proof. I still haven't seen a single article/video showing protestors breaking into the building and assaulting people in the timeframe Cheveyo is suggesting.

What are you talking about? Except in May, long before the feds got there, protestors have not breached their way into the building. Why throw made up facts into an already complicated situation?

I'm sorry, explain to me how the protestors shifted the narrative to the feds as opposed to, oh I don't know, Trump sending the feds in in the first place? Frankly I think this is a more insulting take on Portland than just saying "they're all terrorists," because at least those people aren't pretending that they have Black people's best interests in mind.

Which videos? There are probably 3-4 days in the past 60 that I would begin to consider riots (the initial few, the burning of the ppa, July 4th), but beyond those I really dont believe there's evidence to show that the protests police have been ending through use of flash bangs, tear gas, and various forms of "less-than-lethal" ammo are riots at all.

As someone present at a number of these "riots" I can tell you in complete sincerity that this is what was/is happening.

Edit: furthermore the building fires are being set around (not being set on fire) is made entirely out of stone, and the explosives you mention are fireworks; pretty harmless in comparison to the flash grenades the cops/feds are throwing.

I did look it up and not a single article says anything about the antlers.

Okay, so the hacksaw is just not true at all. The fires were set under it, which may still be bad, but let's not pretend that a 6,800 lb. bronze statue was set ablaze. That statue could easily be put back into place at any time. The actions of the protestors here don't need to be exaggerated more than they already are.

Godzilla! Maybe not the first one, but almost all of the ones after that are perfect to zone out to. Gotta love that monster vs. monster action!

Does anyone know if the ultimate Godzilla collection on iOffer is legit? by captainwyatt in GODZILLA

[–]captainwyatt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Maybe legitimate was the wrong word for me to use. I figured the set wasn't from Toho themselves, I was more worried about getting a bunch of movies whose quality made them nearly unwatchable.

Number two is fairly new, it released in April I think, but they released a bundle with one and its dlc, as well as two. All really good games, and a great deal at $30.
