This is how some Trump supporters decided to spend their Saturday...

Anti-mask Covidiots Arrested In Orange County
"A few people decided to walk into the Mother’s grocery store in Costa Mesa without a mask. When they wouldn't leave, the store manager then locked them in & called the police.... Orange County reported 513 new cases of COVID-19 and 20 new deaths on Saturday alone, but to these dingleberrys wearing a mask is an infringement of their god-given rights."

Note the national anthem being played in background.

There is an assortment of other twitter videos via the link to crooksandliars.com. So much for law, order and support for the police. I guess that only applies when things go their way. If you think this is something wait till you see what happens if Trump loses the election. As far as I'm concerned we may be seeing the beginning of the end.

Check out this piece written by Pennsylvania Senator Daylin Leach..

IT REALLY CAN HAPPEN HERE
"History shows there is no law of God or nature that any democratic nation must remain a democracy forever. Lots of countries were democratic, and then weren’t, often because they voted their own democracy away. You don’t have to go back to the 1930s and Hitler’s democratic election to see this. There are many more recent examples, including Turkey, Venezuela, Poland, Brazil and Hungary. But despite this fine all-you-can-stomach buffet of authoritarianism on the march, it is still hard for us to wrap our heads around the idea that this could happen here. This is America Dammit! We have well-established institutions of democracy that will protect us....

At the end of the day laws and constitutions are pieces of paper. And institutions are just people (and, spoiler alert: so is Soylent Green! Now you don’t have to see that awful movie). Look at Germany in 1932. It had an advanced democracy, with high culture and a vibrant middle-class. They had the rule of law and lots of the same institutions we have now. And in a few weeks, it was all gone."


I urge you to give it a full read.
