Regardless of where anyone here lies on the political spectrum, we all feel terribly about the young lady that was killed yesterday.

Having said that, stop trying to turn her into a martyr.

It's gross.

When cops were ambushed and butchered in Dallas and Baton Rouge with undeniable motivation from the BLM movement, BLM was allowed to skate and bear no responsibility.

Now, you leftish posters and the media want to apply martyrdom to this victim and attach her death to anyone and everyone that you can glue it to regardless of validity.

You people never seem to figure out that most of the bitterness from the right comes from having to play on an uneven field and have to deal with having similar if not completely congruent events like yesterday splashing on us while even worse events orchestrated by your extremists leaving you completely unsullied.

This is where the anger brews. It doesn't brew from hate. It brews because WE ARE FORCED TO WATCH bullshite PEDDLED 24/7.

ANTIFA is a terrorist organization. It goes to burn and destroy in the name of oppression yet it doesn't get attached to the left nor is it even treated in a negative light. It is a Facist organization.

Let a couple of Right wing KKK types get together and somehow I've got some ownership of that.

The double standards are clearly defined and at the core of the boil.

You are going to get downvoted into oblivion but I agree with you.

People losing their lives over the fringe groups of both parties getting platforms to speak on.

In reality we should unite and extinguish both groups.

That is a dream though.

I don't feel bad in the least. These are two worthless, violent, extreme factions. I don't believe anyone there was an innocent bystander, except LE and probably some kids (because you know there were probably idiots on both sides with their kids there). I'm sad for the state of the world, but they should have just let them go at it and reduce the numbers on both sides. There is nothing redeeming about either.

Spot on. I think a lot of people especially older people have yet to realize that there is going to come a time in this country when everyone will have to choose sides. Yesterday wasn't the end of what's happening in this country by a long damn shot and the alt right didn't start it.

And that's a big reason why Trump won. People are tired of being called racists and bigots by the Democratic Party. Instead of learning their lesson they're doubling down because they believe that they now have the morale high ground. One nutjob runs over a girl and now everyone on the right is "White Nationalist." Nobody is going to remember that girl in 3 1/2 years but they'll remember being labeled as bigot.

Regardless of hers and those 2 cops deaths, this is still a ridiculous shite show. I'm not turning her into a martyr, but it's fricked up what happened and it was just the slums of humanity all gathered in one place. Just an utter shite show where both sides need to denounce the most extreme of their ilk.

This is a patently absurd concept.

No, "sides" don't need to be chosen. Everyone can choose to condemn the violent extremists and let the adults get back to their lives.

I'd like to know how the Dallas thing where the guy was yelling BLM isn't hung around their neck yet when a White Supremacist a-hole runs a car into a crowd everyone with a toe on the right of the political spectrum has to be treated like they helped steer the car.

It's offensive.

I didn't downvote but I will say that your post was interspersed with some good points buried in the usual Poliboard bullshite.

For instance, there is no movement on this board to turn her into a martyr. Nor is anyone blaming this on normal conservatives.

But after getting blamed for getting Scalise shot, I'll take the board's sudden embrace of nuance in this case of not having one nutjob speak for everybody.

Exactly. Two people threw their lives away over a statue yesterday. It's almost laughable.

Meh. Let them continue. Might get a tax cut if they keep it up. May as well turn lemons into lemonade.

We are forced to do no such thing. This is America and we are free to choose to be responsible citizens and ignore the silly and juvenile games the establishment continues to play.

Or we can choose to be Drama Queens and willfully allow ourselves to be herded like sheep by the establishment propaganda into whatever direction it sees fit to further its agenda.

It's your choice.

That drivel was so full of ignorance, it could set poliboard records for upvotes.
