    Seriously **** this mindset. One can hold a *highly* negative view of Tucker Carlson and still not manage to cross certain lines that were crossed last night. I for one think Tucker Carlson is among the absolute worst of us as Americans, and would gladly dance on the ashes of his television career, but going to his home and beating on his door doesn’t change anything. All it does is provide validation to some of their more outlandish claims about the left, which would actually be counterproductive to changing the culture.

    What needs to happen instead in my opinion is we need to continue protesting with our wallets. For as much ire as it drew from the right, there is nothing wrong with calling sponsors and letting them know your opinion of their continued business relationship with Tucker Carlson’s show. There’s no issue with large public demonstrations protesting a policy or even a person. Taking that anger to someone’s front door or into a restaurant where a fellow citizen is trying to eat is crossing a line to me, though. Some may say the ends justify the means, but I disagree. If you think (like I do) that Tucker Carlson is an ill to society, don’t become another yourself.

    Amazing hearing rational opinions from people who can respectfully disagree

    Until proven otherwise I say it was staged

    All the same screw Tucker Carlson - for the misery he has spread banging on his front door is letting him off easy.
    Back when America was Great he stood the chance of being tarred and feathered

    I dont know if anyone has noticed but protesting with your wallet gets you called a cuck
    And if by chance that protest is effective some lame brain comes in yelling about Political Correctness

    like I said earlier this has James O'Keefe written all over it

    As always - protesting against people on the right = AWESOME!!! Not a mob!

    Protesting against people on the left = white nationalist violent assholes!

    Y'all never disappoint

    I would still be against him

    Yes we know.

    But you seem to think results on the field is a tax cut and a tax cut alone.

    We have record low unemployment.

    We hit over 4% GDP last quarter and trending towards +3% for the year, despite accelerating interest rates

    African-American, Hispanic, and Asian-American unemployment rates all at record lows

    Women unemployment lowest since the 50's

    Business confidence at record highs

    Consumer confidence at record highs

    Job openings are at an all-time high and outnumber job seekers for the first time on record

    Wages have grown at highest rate since 2008

    Less war talk

    Over a dozen American hostages returned

    The preacher from Turkey released back home

    Peace talks between North and South Korea

    More women in administration than any President ever

    Appears very likely to end federal ban on marijuana

    Substantially enhanced "scream at the sky" party industry

    And that's not even counting all the things that conservatives love, like the judicial nominees, killing ACA mandate, leaving garbage like Paris accord, boosting defense spending, dismantles ISIS presence, etc.

    ---------------------------------------

    Now I know you are too small of a person to recognize this bc you can't look at things objectively. And by all means, feel free to say "Obama did most of this." You will be wrong again.

    Fact of the matter is, nearly everyone's lives in this country has improved... and the great great majority of that has been due to regulatory and tax reform. Hopefully massive spending cuts are next.

    Actually, the threats of Dr. Ford are shameful.

    Much like thew threats against Kavanaugh's family... But let me guess, you don't care about those, right?

    This one should be easy to condemn... but you just can't bring yourself to do it.

    i say i don't care if you gave me a billion tax free

    and then you post a list (that is over half economic/money related) where you think people should overlook all the harm cause of money

    brilliant

    Applying the same degree of responsibility to Ms Carlson as Dr Ford, why didn't she alert the police immediatly ?
    Before " the door was broken"

    It has taken 2 days for the police to suss out the perps and parade them across Fox ?
    all 6 of them


    was there a photographer on site? Me asking
    Who took the pictures ?

    How much damage ?

    Why did Fox discontinue reporting on the "caravan" on Nov 7 of all days ?


    Why do you still take Fox at their word ?
