Current Mood: | Re: More mature Liberal political discourse Idiots because they protested and threw things at his car? Sounds like a non-sequitor accusation to me. I would slap him in the mouth if the opportunity presented itself.
And what does this have to do with being liberal? You don't have to be liberal to have contempt for the man that is Karl Rove. All it takes is a sense of morality, liberty, and empathy for human suffering.
I don't see what you're basing your assumption that these students are Democrats on.

Lean: Private Gender:  | Re: More mature Liberal political discourse I think there's a time for violence, and that time is when:
1) Someone is doing irreparable harm to something of value
2) That person won't listen to reason, and will not stop to discuss the issue.
It's childish, in such circumstances, to not get violent. Or perhaps more accurately--it's cowardly.
Now we can argue whether Rove has really crossed that line (I believe he has). But it's not childish to make such judgements and act accordingly. |

If the shoe fits.............. | What shoe? A "liberal shoe?" Am I a liberal now simply because I said I would slap Karl Rove? Thats two non-sequitor accusations for you in this thread. Quote:

Originally Posted by Stinger and how was that reason to assault him? | Its his deficiencies in the stated virtues that I assume these students had contempt for. But why speculate. Quote:
