Dubya can go paint more needlessly dead military members from his dumbass actions in Iraq. If he needs a break he can stick his dick in a Texas fire ant hill. He and Cheney and all their neocon ilk can fall in an open septic tank for all I care.Quote:

No excuse for this action in 1775 either, right? Weren't they better than that? After all, good guys are for law an order, aren't they? It's the bad guys who come with violence. Shooting at those Britishmen surely damaged the American cause...
There are most certainly times when there is reason for going beyond 'peaceful' protests. Righteous reasons. Times when there is an excuse. When it is called for. Reasons for good guys to fight back. Today may or may not have been one of those times, only history will decide. I am not nearly wise enough to make that determination.
Anyone who suggests that good guys should ALWAYS be for law and order, are foolish. Tyranny always hides behind law and order.
There were many people in 1775 who thought there was no excuse too. They were wrong.
Change always starts somewhere. Who know yet if this will be the start of change, good or bad. But our country is not healthy. Change is needed. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...450d5cad2c.jpg
Under normal circumstances, yes I'd say what they're doing was bad. However, last summer, the left taught us that riots work. Well...
(Also, some people are trying to paint buffalo guy as a qanon Trump supporter, but I think he's just a lefty who's nuttier than squirrel poop. https://www.azcentral.com/picture-ga...ld/2391592001/)
Did the Antifa fluffers intentionally escalate the protest and whip-up the "normal" people into a frenzy that they might not have planned on being a participant otherwise?
If they did, does that excuse anyone else's involvement?Quote:

In actuality, the whole event shows the unpredictability of attending one of these events in person. I kind of doubt the guy shown sitting at Pelosi's desk had that on his checklist for the day.
Too bad they didn't bring some "peaceful" incendiary devices & accelerants like we saw used all over the country this summer & fall
I’m disappointed in how a group of people represented a us as a whole today. Causing fear and harm to people that you do not agree with is not the proper way.
The left may have done the same or worse in recent memory and we reference this on this forum daily. But we as a cause have done very well with not escalating to their level until today. The actions of a couple dozen activists painted a picture of a mindset that while not accurate of the group as a whole and it’s ideals will be engrained into the memory as a scar for sometime to come.
Never argue with an idiot they will drag you down to their level and win with experience. We did the same today.
