Right. Which is not the vote of "We the People".
Also, how a lot of conservatives process the entire Black Lives Matter movement. Essentially, a riot is a protest with which you disagree or by people whose opinion you don't care about.

So my takeaway from this video is if you are planning on rioting you can expect armed vigilantes to execute a death sentence on you, so stay home. Is that about it?
I didn't see any mention of the armed citizens being store owners or otherwise protecting anything.

Not quite.
It's implied. A coiled snake doesn't attack unless and until it perceives a threat to itself from someone or something that has entered its proximity.

My point is this: When Donald the Degenerate did his 1992 interview for the SMUT magazine Playboy, he gave accolades to the Chinese communists for the way they put down (i.e. murdered) protesters in Tiananmen Square. While no one could compare the Marxist backed BLM movement with the students in China who only wanted freedom, Donald Trump is a wannabe tyrant and needs to be closely watched.

Sure it is, the people's vote is what determined the outcome.
Some people's vote matters more than others, it's a feature of our system.
But it's not unfair because everyone gets a choice about how much their vote matters.
If you want the most powerful vote, move to Wyoming.

haven't we beaten this horse to death already?
A riot is where you break windows and block roads. A protest is where you stand around with signs in an appropriate place and make speeches.
I'm looking forward to spending the next 8 years asking them if they've repealed the Electoral College yet.

i don't remember them whining like this back in 2001 :idunno:
Do they ever have voter registration drives at their riots, er, I mean protests?
It dragged on for a month, I think it got diluted in all the action?
The focus was on counting Florida and people forgot to ask why Florida mattered so much.
Spoiler
While I wouldn't use MLK Jr. as a model for peaceful protests library boy (deadly riots broke out in every city that he spoke at), Donald Trump found this sort of force impressive when dealing with peaceful protests:
On June 4, 1989, thousands of Chinese troops stormed Beijing’s Tiananmen Square, violently ending a peaceful student-led protest that had been calling for freedom and democratic reform.
Tanks rumbled through the streets as soldiers fired on unarmed protesters in an attempt to disperse the outraged crowd. Hundreds, if not thousands, of demonstrators were killed in the assault.
What if a little of both happens? How do you paint the overall movement?
As a crummy movement.
So, a movement that dumps perfectly good tea into a harbor?
That was a revolution.
Are you saying BLM is a revolution?
Cause they're not very good at that, if that's what they are trying to do.
They should try to pick what they are and then do it.
It was 1773, well before the actual revolution really got going. No, at the time, it was really just a protest against what the colonists saw as an unjust tax. It was destructive, illegal, and so small-scale that at the time no one could have imagined it would have lead to anything important, but it resonated enough with the other colonists that we still learn about it in school.
And really, does it matter if we view it as a protest in isolation, or part of a larger revolution? At heart, it's just a bunch of individuals trying to make a statement about what matters to them. Why do you suppose [white] people think so differently about the two situations?
Maybe. There are many common threads between them. They're certainly looking for a revolution in how police treat them.
Can you name a tidy, organized revolution?
So you're saying that BLM is an actual revolution? the start of one?
When will we see BLM Congresspersons?
