Left-wing mob interrupts Candace Owens’ breakfast with primal screams

Thanks for demonstrating that it's usually the rightwing that pulls the race card.

I'll bet you've actually convinced yourself that's true.... LMMFAO

Intimidation is all they have left.

They certainly are not gathering support because of their socialists politics. I mean, who loses 1200+ seats, the House, Senate, and presidency?
 
Liberals never condemn this behavior.

Oh, get a grip. Antifa morons don’t represent liberals anymore than white supremacists represent conservatives. (Though there are probably good people on both sides, as the prez noted.) I have been a liberal since the 1960s in various roles and our response to behavior like this has always ranged from eye-rolling, to disapproval, to open condemnation, depending on the situation.
 
This should not have happened. The idiots screaming in her face with a bullhorn or blowing a whistle in her face, or the guy dumping water on Charlie Kirk, should be ashamed of themselves.

Are you aware of any particular liberal commentator who has publicly condemned the Candace Owens harassment?
 
I know both sides are equally capable of violent behavior, but right now, today, it's the left that's engaging in violent behavior, not the right.

Believe it or not, I feel bad for many on the left. It must suck that the violent behavior is coming from their side of the political spectrum and what makes it even worse, the democrats who represent them aren't doing anything to stop it. Then there's people like Maxine Waters who are publicly encouraging more confrontations...

While I don't believe that Antifa represents all liberals, I've come across various liberal posters who react to such incidents with nonsense like "good, attack all the Nazis."

ANTIFA morons absolutely represent the Left.

No, I knew nothing about the incident or Owens til I saw the posts here.

Used to be people got take out on a stretcher for doing that sort of thing.
 
ANTIFA morons absolutely represent the Left.

And your source for this is? Over 25 years, I worked in the farmworkers Union, as a civil rights investigator, and as a political asylum claims analyst for Amnesty International. Met dozens (hundreds) of lefties (and righties with Amnesty) Ran into antifa types in each place. No one took them seriously. Cops we dealt with for the most part knew the difference, much as we and they could distinguish conservatives from violent right-wing groups. Not a difficult call.

But if it makes you feel better, you can lump us all together.
 
I don't think Antifa represents all aspects of the Left, because there are still Lefties who believe in the rule of law. But there have been disturbing situations in the last few years, such as Maxine Waters's exhortation for believers to hassle conservatives minding their own business, that suggest that Antifa is a response to a greater prevailing pattern. Whether this is entirely a response to the reign of Trump is possible, albeit arguable.

I only ever see Liberals defend ANTIFA
 
You must not have any confidence in the Liberals, here.

I find generalization detrimental to credibility, regardless of who it comes from. It's a lesson that taking a second to shake off my "filthy leftist" dogma for a sec, and talking to guys like you has taught me. Sometimes generalizations are wrong. Most times.

Oh, sure, we use statistics to figure out problems, which essentially is "educated" generalization...but that only gets you so far. At some point one must always consider the individual in order to get the best understanding of what makes up any situation.

In this case, though, there are lots of people who lean left who have denounced Antifa...therefore, I can confidently debate your assertion that Antifa represents the Left. They do not. In the same way that the Proud Boys do not represent the Right.

Fair?

You need to start fussin' at your fellow Liberals, if you really want to claim to be credible.

Sure...if you promise to work on your fellow Conservatives... ;)

(Just fakin', you can go through my post history and see where I already do. Probably not as much as I call out your side, and that's wrong...it should be in reverse. But I'm human...pretty awesome is about all I can aspire to...hehe)

I'm going to hold you to that. Be ready.
 
Let's start with you, my friend.

I defended antifa? it's violence? As I said, in my lprofessional life I have had to deal with left wing crazies, the "infantile left," as I believe some communist leader referred to them, and they were an annoyance, dangerous, but no an ally.
 
I'm going to hold you to that. Be ready.

hehe...I'll trust you to keep me honest, bud...so long as you don't mind me doing the same thing to you.

PS: Welcome to what healing division looks like. Well, if you let me keep you honest as well, that is. I'm assuming this is a two way street and neither of us will be hypocrites. :) Just one request: If you're going to call me out on something, be nice about it. I have general anxiety disorder, which triggers the fight / flight instinct. In most people it defaults to flight...me, well...hehe...I tend to fight. When I **** up in here, it's usually because of that.
