Pete Buttigieg heckled by homophobic protesters; Beto O'''Rourke stands up for fellow candidate
 
My first reaction is to think, rot in hell little girls. Wallow in your jackbooted ignorance and the indoctrinated cesspool you've allowed yourselves to swim in.

But then, my heart kind of breaks. Kids today are being weaponized by really bad people, and it's going to have lifelong implications for them.

And that saddens me for them, and it angers me towards the people who are doing it because they know they are screwing them, perhaps for life.

That's the part that worries me. If this type of behavior is allowed to continue spreading, I really believe that the country's days are numbered, even though I won't be around to see the demise.

I'm in the same boat. Final laps of life on this rock. But I've got children and grandchildren. Thank God, they have not been sucked into the dark votex of hell the new radical left has been trying to create.

The one saving grace I have regarding the future, is the realization we, as a country, have been through similar periods of insanity, and exited the other side.

I think of Prohibition, and the collective craziness that brought it about.
 
I don’t condone violence. People should wear what they want, though do so at their own risk especially when wearing political slogans and statements of any lean. You’re pretty much asking to be ****ed with.

You say people should wear what they want (which they should) and you don't condone violence... Then you basically say in the very next breath that if someone wears something that the left disagrees with and they are attacked, it's their fault because they were asking for it....

I guess you also think that a woman wearing a sexy skirt that gets raped, was also asking for it too... Right?

.
 
Tolerant leftists attacking people because they're wearing a MAGA hat has become all too familiar these days, especially on college campuses. This time it took place at Texas State University and unlike other campuses where police turn a blind eye to these type attacks, police immediately took action.

I find the unhinged anger, the disrespect toward police, and the arrogant self righteousness of those horrible girls very troubling, because these are the people who will one day be in charge of this country and nobody seems to give a damn.




Ooh, lookie ... a righty found another instance of leftist violence! Well, at least they didn't go after the MAGA hat wearer with an AR-15.

Sarcasm aside, a few idiots assaulting someone pales in comparison to the blind, raging hatred being bred on the right, prompting right wing fanatics to visit houses of worship and spray bullets among innocent people.

Good that they were arrested, but your right wing outrage is ridiculous and hypocritical.
 
It's not a hate crime if you attack people based on characteristics they do have control over. There can be no civility with a cult of racists who want to destroy democratic and Democratic institutions.

I'm thumbing up your avatar and your signature, but I disagree about civility. Violence only breeds more of the same. There are other ways to counter the current darkness.
 
and encouraged by Maxine?

Maxine never encouraged violence, just loud and ugly confrontation. Both are wrong IMO but let's not make **** up.
 
Clothing should not incite any kind of violence. People should be allowed to wear any clothing that supports their political beliefs without persecution.
Agreed. But unfortunately you’re talking about walking in public among people of all stripes and mental stability.
 
Just another sign that the bad old days of hate and division have returned under Trump.

Trump isn't responsible for the actions of these girls.
 
It seems you excuse any and all crimes that are less than murder in a church.

How tolerant of you.

Was that excusing anything? I read it a second time. I'm not finding any excusing, just some reasonable comparisons.

Why is it that only the right feels free to tell others what they think and feel, or put words into others' mouths? I never see leftists do that on these forums.

I hope he does press charges and the maximum punishment is put on them and also kicked out of college. It needs to be established that this type of behavior is not allowed, especially if we want to continue to exist as a country. Their crying brought joy to my heart, I gotta tell you..."What?...I have to face consequences of my actions for assaulting someone and the police?....WWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!" Rofl. Needs to happen more.

As long as they don't wear it when they go to the polls to vote. Then, it's illegal.

People can be so vicious when they are scared of what they don't understand.

Thanks for the link. I didn't realize he was a newlywed.
 
Some on the left, just have no control of their emotions. To potentially ruin the rest of their future for something so stupid as being triggered and stealing a MAGA hat. I guess we can just call this social Darwinism.

There's one small difference that I highly doubt you are honest enough to acknowledge... The incidents you cite of right wing violence, are carried out by individuals with serious mental issues, not as part of some planned, organised strike by some far right extremist group. On the other hand, the violent attacks and destruction of private property we're seeing from the left is almost always done in a group environment and is fully condoned by the organisations they represent. ANTIFA for example encourages violent confrontation, as do so many of the far left organisations that exist on college campuses across the country.

You don't see hordes of right wing extremists gather in mobs, put masks on, and violently attack peaceful gatherings... but you sure as hell see the left engage in this behavior all the damned time. Now before you start citing the proud boys, the right completely denounced them, did not allow them a seat at the table, and as a result they diapered completely off the map as fast as they arrived on the scene... You people should take some notes.

Seriously? You're worried about some idiot kids? At least they didn't spray bullets at innocent people. How do we stop the violent hatred coming from the right? You know, the far right white nationalists who visit houses of peaceful worship with loaded weapins and actually SHOOT people.

Get a grip and get some perspective.
 
Here are some observations, nobody said leftist are tolerant against intolerance.

Here's an observation, it's not called "tolerance" if you only allow people you agree with a voice. That saying is utterly meaningless outside of a weak attempt to soft-peddle violence.

But this is another example of "rightists" ridiculous hypocrisy towards "leftists". Don't misunderstand me, leftists have hypocrisy too.

But this is the issue, you are complaining about the damned leftists but sadly when the "leftist" complain about the treatment of journalists and protesters at Trump rallies who are wearing something "rightists" disapprove of, the Orange Oaf even encourages violence or non-violent but aggressive attitudes to protesters/newsmedia/journalists.

Mean words towards journalists =/= violence. Further, journalists have been assaulted by far leftists, not by those on the right.

If find the unhinged anger, the disrespect towards other people, police too and the arrogant self righteousness of Trump supporters to protesters and media equally worrisome and troublesome but unlike the left politicians who abhor (most of them at least) this kind of violence, the right wing Trump supporters are being actively egged on by their Orange Master which is much more troublesome. And also worrisome is the total lack of disgust among Trump supporters of the actions of their own. The problem now is that their leader now is in charge and he does not care nor do his supporters.

There is no comparison between the left and right here...to come close to a comparison with the left on the right you literally have to go to neo-Nazis and KKK. The mainstream right doesn't act like this.
 
LOL Yeah right

If only the left was just doing a little bit of heckling then you'd have a comparison.

Did Trump offer to pay their legel expenses? I believe the CIC set the tone, I would call this blow back.

I strongly condemn all acts of violence, always have.

As for hordes: Charlottesville, a crowd wielding tiki torches and chanting "Jews will not replace us." That was organized hatred, planned well in advance, and deliberately inciting violence. I read some of the stuff from the event's planners and the various nationalist ampnd white supremacist website, urging people to come ARMED. So maybe you should climb down from that soap box.

So the RW violence is lone wolf crazies, but the LW is ordered by the DNC?
