fuck the united states

fuck this fucking miserable fucking place

Wheeler's a disaster for this City. Will progressives have the guts to vote for a change or will they fragment and watch him coast to reelection?

The hippy teacher from Beavis and Butthead comes to mind when I imagine Wheeler asking the federal government to “adhere to the same directives as PPB".

"To be clear, these criminal acts—setting fire to a statue, breaking windows, and throwing rocks at police—pale in comparison to the injuries law enforcement has inflicted on the public over the past 45 days. "

You seem to be forgetting the assaults on public employees, attempting to burn down occupied buildings, looting private property, seizure and illegal occupation of public property, etc. etc. These are not protesters, they are bums, criminals and vandals. I especially like all the green lasers used in 2d degree assault against public servants immediately prior to this person picking up the tear gas canister and heaving it back at the public employees.
Support your union workers, kids, back the blue.

There's no there there with Wheeler. A bit like Zuckerberg, he oozes with pressure to a slightly more acceptable position when he has to, but not stand for anything in particular. Being a "nice guy" isn't nearly enough. Like all liberals, money is priority #1, and his support from wealthy property owners matters more to him than anything else. And if the country's property owners continue to profit from the economic and social injustices that are rampant, barring a fascist takeover, already well under way, which they seem to be aligned with knowingly or not, they will lose much more than the damage to their storefronts.
