This is why those people saying that making a big deal about Confederate monuments is just baseless hysteria are simply burying their heads in the sand.

These progressive make every cause a moral argument. Right now, taking down Confederate statues is a moral imperative. If you resist or question it, you're a nazi. The same will happen with a whole host of other figures or ideas. We will all be morally obligated to blindly follow them or else.

Non- violent " normals" all over the country ordering more ammunition, just in case as the Progs work 24/7 to unravel the social fabric.

Is there anything normal that these people are in support of that doesn't involve violence, destruction and disruption? That's all I'm seeing from this "resistance".
unfortunately I think it's escalating to where someone is going to turn one of these mob/protests/whatever into a shooting gallery.

the cops let it escalate because a mayor or governor finds the mob useful...so what's going to happen is either someone sick of that or someone feeling empowered by that...is going to show up and start shooting people when things escalate

Here's the problem. We tend to want to argue with them. A saying in politics is that if you are explaining, you are losing. You need a politician with power on a local level to stand up and tell them flat out no.....with no explanation

The Leftists hate this country. It is foolish to believe they'll stop anywhere.

They want destruction.

Yeah, unfortunately one side is allowed to operate with impunity, it'll cause a predictable violent backlash, then the left will have the justification it needs to implement everything on it's socialistic wishlist. This is what happens when we decide to selectively enforce laws. The whole idea of a civilized democracy breaks down.

how many Nazis do you estimate were in VA this weekend?


More then 200....Are you going to be applying the same logic you used here to Charlottesville?

Or are you suddenly going to have a epiphany and recognize the ignorance of that?

are you really trying to pick apart the subject to a message board thread?



obviously this thread doesn't apply to every liberal in the US, just like the 200-300 idiots in VA don't represent the right

OH shite - I had not thought of that -

You are correct - the radical prog/DEM/MSM/SJW cabal will run thru all the low hanging fruit soon - they have already attacked the Lincoln Memorial - some are going after Jefferson again - now Rooseveldt.

This is a dangerous mania they have fallen victim to - it's almost time to treat them like rabid dogs.

It isn't stopping you from using the slippery slope fallacy stemming from these 200 people now is it?

By your logic, why shouldn't I expect the allowance of nazis without substantial push back in Charlotesville, as you infer needs to happen with leftists and monuments, won't stop until all of the right has successfully ethnic cleansed this country?

It continues to amaze me how little thought some of you put into things before you regurgitate echo chamber talking points.

You all sound as fricking dumb as the people that spend their days on DU thinking that The losers in Charlotesville vastly over represent the actual population and get all triggered and apocalyptic based on that ignorance.

The entirety of popular culture is in a god damned hysterical frenzy and you don't think that is significant.

They can barely contain themselves. They are already moving to use it to silence all dissent.

oh...hyperbolic stupidity

yeah a movement of 50-100k people spread across a country 3,000 miles wide and with 330M people isn't going to get to "ethnic cleanse" anyone

so what will stop them? demographics....our system of government...our police state...etc

basically just reality

Bill Cosby Statue Removed From Disney World Resort

JULY 8, 2015 | 07:01AM PT A Bill Cosby statue has been removed from Walt Disney World Resort near Orlando, Fla. The bronze bust was taken down from Disney’s Hollywood Studios theme park on Tuesday night, a spokesman told NBC News.

An online petition calling for the statue’s removal had circulated for months. The TV section of the resort’s Academy of Television Arts and Sciences Hall of Fame Plaza also houses tributes to Oprah Winfrey and Lucille Ball, among other celebrities.
