What we DO know is Biden can't possibly be worse.

And what I truly fear is that another four years of Trump could phuck this country up beyond repair - at least within our lifetimes.

So in your view, having less gov't intervention, less taxes, better trade deals, no foreign wars and a big focus on the economy is phucking up the country.   
But having gov't run your life, stifle business, let crime run amok, higher taxes, higher energy costs and lax immigration is the answer.

maybe I’m too triggered by all of these recent events, but while driving down a small town main street yesterday I saw a billboard on a local business that read "We stand with and support law enforcement."

Typically, I would fine with and endorse that type of message, but considering the timing of it, reading that billboard made my blood boil. 

I’ve already contacted the business through email to let them know that I felt that message was in poor taste considering recent events. I’d like for them to realize they are alienating potential customers, but honestly I should probably just let it go.

 

Am I being too sensitive?

I don't care much for cops period. But I support law enforcement vs the alternative.  But by and large the overwhelming majority of police officers I've encountered were actually good people.  
Police do need to be more accountable for their actions and not be allowed to get away with things such as abusing people, I think everyone agrees with this.

A manly man like that not wearing underwear? I have to call bullshit.

Possible but hard.  It really serves to stifle speech in a big way.  

You mean if it causes someone to actually think before they speak/act?

Maybe not such a bad thing.

As I've said, I find it amazing how people like you among Trump's base can continue to support such a vile buffoon. But your priorities markedly differ from mine.

Is he trying to egg on protesters to put up a fight against the National Guard or police?

I am more amused at the insistence of grouping protesters with all the negative than him using S.S.  I am guessing he can't spell secret or service.  Or perhaps not enough characters.

It also is an abbreviation for Secret Service, and Scout Sniper.  It could be he was too lazy to type it out.  I don't want to go to into the weeds on every little thing he says.
