Riots and Protests Starting...

[Kutnupe14]

Where did I say they didn't have the right to, or even shouldn't, protest?

I don't think you read my post correct. Your response doesn't seem to flow, with what I said.

 

[GodFearinGunTotin]

You forgot God fearing...

You're right! I meant to put that in there too.

 

[Kutnupe14]

Facts not in evidence. You're basing your entire argument here on an alternate reality.

An alternate reality? Our history has documented, quite well, protests/riots when right-leaning people dominated the inner cities.

Of course there's hypocrisy by the left. My point is, the right obviously, does it as well.

We know. We're told we're hypocrites all the time. We know. Those that are now acting out and in contrary to their previous claims to piety are just....to delicious to not enjoy.

It's not even about left or right. It's an American thing. You know when your team intercepts a ball, and it's actually pass interference, but your ok with it? But heaven be damned if your team is the victim of that play.

...please tell me you at least get the football reference.

There weren't... Obama didn't run on the idea of oppressing White people and Christians. If he had, I'm sure there would've been quite the response.

Oh...and that bitter clinger statement was apparently made during the campaign of 2008, if this old story is correct.

Yeah, Obama had his list of people that needed their come-uppance.

Barack Obama, Bitter Clinger - Breitbart

I acknowledge that this happens. The thing that is so infuriating is listening to the homers in the booth who only see one side.

Then the question makes no sense in the first place. I basically stated individuals did racist things because racism, and the election gave them a venue to act out. This is not the action of a disenchanted conservative. On the other hand, liberals take to the streets, and the protests get out of hand and stuff gets broken and stolen. Also there are public calls for assassination. More people involved, different types of actions. My statement to sum this up was "not dismissing, just categorizing."

Your response was basically, "well where should they protest?" I really don't know how that applies. They can protest in or out of town for all I care. It is the nature of the protest that causes my disgust. And it is what marks the difference between conservatives and liberals, which difference was called into question by you.

No. This is plain old not walking the talk. That's all that's being pointed out...and I find it delicious.

Hey look! They goal posts are over there now.

We are talking now about a huge separation in time and people. Let's confine this to our generation, since it's the only we can live in.

Or if we want to start broadening the discussion, we can talk about the way the Goths went postal on Rome after being treated unfairly.

We will just agree to disagree, then.

My wife's cousin just notified the family she and her family will not be joining for Christmas this year, and that we probably already assumed it. She slammed the trump voters, of which all of us were on FB the other day.

Lovely.

Oh no, I've learned from INGO that you can go all the way back to the Civil War to prove how racist democrats are, and that's fair game. I have yet to see anyone challenge that.

Well that's unfortunate, and ignorant. If I can keep friends that went to the University of Alabama, you guys should be able to keep your families.

The real test is if you had friends/family that went to Vandy or Memphis State...At least Bama is a real university.

I have a pair of shorts from them from a discount chain in FL, I didn't know what the A meant for a month

Well that was easy.

But I don't know how to help you on the racist democrat thing. You're right that going back 150 years is pretty weak. Even LBJ is becoming out of date as an argument. But then, you don't need to go back that far. Robert Byrd and Bill Clinton stand as examples in our time.

Hey look....a squirrel.Why did it take a Democratic black president to finally put Democratic minorities in positions of power? Hummmm?

Hey look....a squirrel.

WHERE?!
