The temptation to turn around and frick them for vengeance is real and strong and sounds good. But we cannot. We cannot stoop to their level.

there is something that I must say to my people, who stand on the warm threshold which leads into the palace of justice: In the process of gaining our rightful place, we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds. Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred. We must forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and discipline. We must not allow our creative protest to degenerate into physical violence. Again and again, we must rise to the majestic heights of meeting physical force with soul force.

The marvelous new militancy which has engulfed our community must not lead us to a distrust of all liberal people, for many of our liberal brothers, as evidenced by their presence here today, have come to realize that their destiny is tied up with our destiny. And they have come to realize that their freedom is inextricably bound to our freedom.

We cannot walk alone.

Why doesn't anyone talk about the Alt-Left?

Free College, Free Housing, Free Everything

BLM, Anti Business, Communist Ties, Pro Illegals etc etc...

They get to riot and destroy private property with no consequence

90% Tax rate is acceptable in their America

Only thing to do is destroy them!

Quit wasting time on PT, you are a rare literary talent and should be sharing your gift with the world......, PT is not worthy of your efforts.

It's always a wow factor when you can find a way to work antidisestablishmentarianism or supercalifragilisticexpialidocious into a piece of work, people who appreciate the written word love it.

Actually, yes we can.

Sometimes you just need a fist to the jaw to get you to realize how stupid you have been.

Time to teach them that debate is a two way street, so is a fight. If they want to fight instead of talk, oblige them.

We can invite anyone to join us - but we must continue to walk along the path towards constitutional governance. We must not alter our course just so some dysfunctionals wants to tag along and feel 'included.' Screw that.

We can - and must - treat the dysfunctionals with compassion, not vengeance, but we must make it clear you have to rethink your basic value system and determine that you want to join us. We need to treat them like a good parent treats a teenage son who has gotten himself in trouble. Don't make excuses for them - insist they adhere to basic principles - demand they improve their behavior.

Do not re-route the course.
