    Should I meet a "leftist" in the grocry store how would I know the difference whether they are safe spacers or pillagers ?

    Do thy have like buttons or special code words. I think it was the days of Paul where Christians met by drawing fish in the dirt.

    Or, is it just some stupid label villifying what people with limited political vocabulaary use to define what they disagree with ?

    You won't meet many leftists in the grocery store. Their parents do the shopping in the house.

    Just catching up with yesterday's events...thought his speech was brutal. Nothing but contradictions and populist hot air. That's what got him elected though, so no surprises.

    I honestly think Democrats are the problem with this country. They riot if they don't get their way (this, black lives matters), they punish you by fines (you don't agree doing stuff for those against your religious beliefs) if you don't agree with them. They are terrible individuals. 57 alone shows what a Democrat is like, an idiot, devoid of any logic, insane and just don't have a clue about life and freedom. He is of the Hitler type, do as I say or you will be shamed or killed.

    Democrats soiled the Black thought. Deeply religious but that carrot of FREE stuff is so enticing. Why go to school, why not kill others or deal drugs for that extra money and street cred, the Dems will protect that way of life?

    Trump is getting rid of that FREE stuff and my people are in a frenzy. They actually have to go to school (the horrah) and the drug dealing is going to be dealt with. Two staples in our society that keeps us under the Democrat master like slaves is going away, hopefully.

    I said it years ago; the biggest threat to our way of life isn't terrorism it's liberalism. You see it more and more everyday.

    The post that you're replying to was in response to sturg33 writing this:

    If that is how you look at it, then I never want to hear you complain/mock about a nutjob thing someone on the right espouses.

    Which is a reasonable point. We're both sensitive to our ends of the political spectrum being broad-brush defined by fringe elements. My post was not intended to compare the incidence of violent protest (and, let's be fair and not conflate any activism that goes down in the streets with "violent protesting.") but to see of the folks who were making absolute statements about the character of "the left" would similarly disclaim the more objectionable elements on their "side." So, I'll repeat: are there no "nutjobs" for you to disclaim? I mean, hell, you've got #freeMilo in your sig, so surely you've brushed up against some.

    Anyway, it seems pretty rich to make absolute statements about "the left" without considering, say, the Bundy gang or the fact that the President of the US was not above retweeting obvious white supremacists and anti-Semites.

    I also think you're being pretty loose with your definition of "rioting."

    I don't think that speech is going to win him any more support than it already has, but I've certainly been surprised enough times in the last 18 months to know that I can't assume anything.

    It's day 2, drug dealers still there. Let me know when that's supposedly changed.

    You said it? Are you Phyllis Schlafly's kid? Just curious.

    I know the "sore losers" can be irritating, frankly I get a little tired of hearing and reading it all too, but here's a non-fake news flash for you guys, the "sore winners" are kind of annoying too!! Just saying.

    Yeah, I know you guys don't like hearing it any better than they do, but let me ask all of you "winners" this question, what did Yamamoto say when he found out the attack on Pearl Harbor had been executed before the declaration of war had been delivered to the US government (ie a sneak attack)? I realize conservatives don't need any lessons (that has been made very clear to me on numerous occasions) but you might want to check out this one. Again, just saying. OK, you can go back to being the kind of winners that build lasting coalitions that lead to a just and lasting peace, ending the yo-yo effect we've seen in our government, especially the White House over the past couple of decades.

    The white supremacy movement is irrelevant. There are maybe ten guys and they don't appear to be violent. In fact they seem to be the ones getting sucker punched. The social justice warrior movement however has a huge platform on the democrat party. And they are very fond of doxing folks they disagree with and shutting down those who have differing opinions. Just in the course of a few days you've had violent protesting at a Milo event, disruptJ20 planning to gas a Trump celebration, windows smashed by anti capitalists. Certainly the right has people with extreme thoughts and a plethora of trolls, but the violence is rare.

    I'll try to ask one more time just to see if you're willing to accept a basic fact or if you're just going to keep filibustering. Would you agree that the vast majority of political violence is against more right leaning political thinkers? Once we can agree on a basic fact maybe we can have an honest discussion about why that is and if there is any culpability from the leaders of the democratic party.

    More specifically it's regressive leftism. Classic liberals are beginning to move over to the right thanks to the crazy social justice warrior movement.

    Agree. It's clearly not the only reason, but it's definitely right up there.
