Someone should tell those protestors that every time one of them looks like an idiot on the news and attempts to stop Trump from speaking, they make it that much more likely someone on the other end of the newscast will vote for Trump.

Extremism in trying to restrain someone else's right to speak is not the same as protesting. I think its hurting their cause more than Trump is helping himself.

The numbers, correct, that said no one that was attacked physically inside the rallies had done anything other than voice their opinion, but I see you believe that gives them the right to assault someone.

Disrupting the political process is not simply voicing their opinion. Harassing, assaulting, inhibiting movement, ect is not voicing opinion. You are propagating a very inaccurate narrative on what actually happens at Trump rallies by anti-Trump protesters.
 
Casper said:
In other words you reserve the right to assault someone that makes more noise than yourself. Noted.

In other words, I support the rights of people to not have their political process inhibited by violent anti-freedom fascists, yes.

Actually the people following in the footsteps of the Brownshirts are the anti-Tump protesters. They are the ones using violence to silence people, which was the primary tactic of the Brownshirts.

One more time, one groups actions does not excuse the actions of the other.

Actually it is, look it up yourself, I know you will not believe me telling you.

Violent, yes, but you also support it for those using non-violent means, you already proved that, you back peddling now?

Nope. You try and inhibit the political process, you can justifiably get your ass beat, period. That is a very serious offense that should result in a very serious response.
 
I didn't vote in the poll because of the stupid choices, but I do think the police should uphold the law. If people want to break the law, let them suffer the consequences. If the people want to fight the police, let them suffer the consequences.

On the other hand, those protests would be a perfect place to round up illegal aliens, so I think they should start with checking ID's and anyone who doesn't have one can suffer the consequences.


Are y'all starting to see a pattern to my post? Yes...it is consequences. That's why we have laws and that's the result of breaking laws.

Violent protests are against the law.

So if someone yells at a Trump rally they deserve a beat down, yes, you are truly one of Trumps kinda folks.

Nice try, but you're continue to be spread a false narrative. It's constant interruption, harassment, inhibiting/blocking movement, ect that ends up getting your ass beat. You can continue to misrepresent the reality of the matter but it's just not working.

You may not think that the interruptions and attacks on the political process is a big thing but others do, and they should.

No matter how much you try, you can't make it look like what you are saying. Everyone has video recording devices now.

Not really, civil disobedience, and disruptive protest, as *ahem* disruptive as they are, are still protests.

Why not just concede that the idea of beating up anyone for something that doesn't put anyone at any risk, and can be handled with police intervention (removal if needed, etc), or other means, is just braindead stupid.

Seriously, the amount of disproportion that comes from the idea of beating someone up EVEN IF they ARE being disruptive,is astounding.

Disruptions of someone's ability to participate in the political process is more serious than just an inconvenience. This is demonstrated by the fact that there are laws that govern what is allowed to happen outside of voting stations. We fought a revolution because we were not represented in our government and inhibition of representation at many levels is a serious matter. I feel no sympathy, at all, for someone who is disrupting the political process getting popped in the face.

Define "disrupting the political process"

What I would like to see are non violent protesters who make their opinion known with dignity and respect for themselves and the opinion of others. All should recognize the benefits of conversation rather than confrontation.
When necessary, law enforcement should position themselves to physically shield participants of meetings and rallies from the presence of violent protesters by blocking the protesters with shields and by sheer numbers, but without engaging.

And if the violent protesters engage?
 
WHAT "anti-Trump violence"? The VAST amount of violence is coming from the TRUMP supporters...a very violent and totally RACIST lot.

Perhaps the "anti-Trump violence" being talked about is this kind of stuff.

A common catch phrase to make a joke of your expense.

So, I guess, you make me laugh, if you want to put that ribbon on your chest...

Nope, they should be taking names and addresses, that way the Trump Brown Shirts can round them up later if he is elected Fuhrer, oh wait I mean President, opps.

It is funny you are accusing trump voters of thuggery...when the evidence is showing the exact opposite.

And I hate trump and I observed that. But that is how the left works now. If you disagree with them you are a racist bigot sexist homophobe who doesn't deserve to live.
