" The right of the people peaceably to assemble", part of the 1st amendment, for whatever reason seems a lot less important to those who love only the second half of the 2nd amendment. In almost every case, it was the police who rioted against the peaceably assembled protesters. Come to think of it, the police weren’t charged, so maybe Lester’s got some kind of a point after all.
The cop is going to place the Trump follower under ARREST ! ? Why won’t he throw him in the ground and yell, “Stop Resisting” as he puts his knee on his neck while he’s got the handcuffs on him ? Trump isn’t the "Law and Order’ President anymore?
Donald Trump got away with impeachable offenses which are much worse… including allowing friends and family to make fortunes on Coronavirus and allowing Putin to pay for American troop assassinations – and he continues to do so. Why isn’t Mr Lester upset?

What a steaming pile of horse manure! There were thousands of protesters and rioters locked up and charged without legal representation or having done anything wrong in the case of the protesters and made to feel as uncomfortable as possible.
Lester does have a legit grievance: that slogan was painted on 5th Avenue close to Trump Tower. It cut that property’s value by close to 90%, according to the numbers Fat Donnie gave to the property tax assessors.
Double standards abound! Drew Brees pays respect to BLM but voices his unwillingness to kneel for the national Anthem. He was ripped several new ones and apologized 3 or 4 times, his wife was made to also apologize and probably his kids and dog, by now, too. DeShaun Jackson tweets out anti-Semitic statements and nobody calls him out. Can you imagine if Drew Brees tweeted out exactly what Jackson tweeted? He’d be done. I should point out that Brees has been a model citizen and a great contributor to community causes in his adopted home of New Orleans. Jackson? Meh.
You should be arrested for spreading misinformation. It’s peaceful protesters that aren’t being charged even though cops were arrested for…umm…protesting. Rioters caught in the act of destroying property or looting are absolutely being charged with a crime.
Lester, how lazy are you? San Diego 4th person arrested… https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/news/public-safety/story/2020-06-12/la-mesa-police-make-fourth-arrest-in-connection-to-riots-looting
The Cop won’t show up like that. He would bring FlashBangs Tear Gas rubber bullets Riot Gear. an Urban assault vehicle if then knock the protester down with the Rotor wash from a Chopper.

I thought you had to scream and wave a gun in the police’s faces while not wearing a mask in order to not get charged or assaulted by police.

Lest rarely (if ever) gets things correct, though he is always “right”.

The more Trump’s polling drops up the more racially charged Lester’s cartoons become.

Well a couple of the cop killers were arrested and charged in California.
Turned out they were boogaloo bois, though.
Doesn’t fit the Trump Disciple narrative.

So, when protesters peacefully remove monuments to their oppressors, that makes them “rioters.” Got it. Thanks.

Remember—“Black Lives Matter” was painted on the road only because the headlines all around the country all too often said “Officers Not Charged”.

“Rioters not charged”. That would be the police that started the riots?

Guess what you get when you do not charge criminals caught committing crimes? Yes, more crime. Always have, always will.
