Re: More political violence from Democrats/the left.
Pickles you my friend are hilarious. You post something as if the left is the only one doing it. You ask for proof that the right is doing it and when you get the proof you want to take my words and make it as if I am condoning violence.
I DO NOT CONDONE VIOLENCE OF ANY KIND BY ANY ONE FOR ANY REASON. You on the other hand condone violence only when it fits your agenda. If it doesn't fit your agenda then you are outraged by it. Thats the very meaning of HYPOCRITE.

Re: More political violence from Democrats/the left.
I know you finally spent the time to look up the word "hypocritical"... and you're proud of yourself... so let me pat you on the head for using it in what is close to the appropriate sentence structure....
But honestly man.. you've used the word in every other post (along with the word hilarious) for the last several days. After awhile it just looks kinda pathetic.
Find a new word for a little bit... your posts won't look as needy.

Re: More political violence from Democrats/the left.
Are you confused by the suggestion that Communist ANTIFA and BLM employ Fascist tactics?
You seem like a pretty smart guy to me... wouldn't think that observation would floor ya.
National Socialists (Nazis) and Bolshevik Communists shared a lot of tactics and totalitarian goals.
ANTIFA kinda unifies them. They are the most Fascist organization the planet has seen in 80 years.

Re: More political violence from Democrats/the left.
There is no comparison between the incidents.
Rittenhouse was retreating. He was running away. Trying to escape. Pretty much the entire incident is him running away and being pursued. He didn't fire until he was cornered and attacked. But he was making every attempt to flee.

Re: More political violence from Democrats/the left.
I believe ANTIFA is a philosophy/school of thought. A dangerous one. It is one that draws individuals to its philosophy. Much like QAnon another theory/philosophy that draws individuals in. At times, these individuals may gather at the same locations for a common cause. I do not believe they are an "organized" group with a hierarchy, that coordinates activities beyond what may happen when one or two or 5 meet up.
In some respects I see Antifa followers as more dangerous than the Proud Boys or Boogaloo Boys because Im a believer in the school of thought that Im not as afraid of a country with nuclear weapons as I fear a single man with a nuke.
That said, Im not willing to write off an entire citizen group that has, even if perceived by some as senseless or wrong minded, grievances. I if people believe so strongly in a cause they are willing to protest day after day it may be worth giving them a forum to air their grievances. If nothing else I may learn something and the ensuing dialogue may result in movement towards a solution. I do think that 95% of the people involved in the BLM are not looking to turn the US into a communist state regardless of the tactics employed. They want justice as we Americans know it.

Re: More political violence from Democrats/the left.
I think we both consider ANTIFA dangerous. Largely because it is attractive to miscreants who really have trouble finding a place to fit in society, and who really are somewhat politically aimless. They are easily manipulated by the older voices in the movement who have an actual agenda.
