John Fetterman speaks out against LA Riots

This past weekend, I wrote this article to highlight the lengths that the MSM would go to not use the word riot in connection with the L.A. Riots. Instead, USA Today used a euphemism (violent protests) to describe a situation "where helmeted police in riot gear clashed with concrete-hurling protesters." I'm fairly certain that the First Amendment doesn't cover "concrete-hurling protesters." I'm certain that's a crime.

In this article, Sen. John Fetterman is quoted as saying "I unapologetically stand for free speech, peaceful demonstrations, and immigration—but this is not that. This is anarchy and true chaos. My party loses the moral high ground when we refuse to condemn setting cars on fire, destroying buildings, and assaulting law enforcement."

Democrats aren't the only people who lose credibility in this episode. The Agenda Media has lost credibility while covering the L.A. Riots. Instead of telling people what was happening in plain, unvarnished language, the Agenda Media chose euphemisms while ignoring the fact that these rioters were committing major felonies.

Apparetly, Bloombergis utilizing USA Today's vocabulary:

The Trump administration escalated its response to anti-deportation protests in Los Angeles with the mobilization of 700 Marines, deploying active-duty military on the ground and increasing tensions with California officials.

The turmoil comes as Los Angeles saw a fourth night of clashes between police and demonstrators rallying against a rising number of raids by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents who local officials say have stoked fear in the immigrant-rich community.

Meanwhile, Bill Melugin's Twitter feed proves that a picture is worth 1,000 euphemisms: In this video editorial, Mark Cunningham of the New York Post summarizes things beautifully:

At the heart of this matter, though, is the Democrats'/anarchists' lust to ignore the laws of this nation. These people don't care about the rule-of-law unless it's forced upon them.
