I do supprt people protesting a president's policy based on the fact it could be discriminatory or unconstitutional.
I will take that a step further and say a president's policy doesn't have to be discriminatory or unconstitutional in order for people to protest. You can simply oppose a policy. You may not be for school choice - you are free to protest. You were being disingenuous about those photos being about people protesting President Obama's election. At least one of them seems to be about Obamacare. Also, the KKK. Seriously? Who gives a rat's arse about the KKK? Why don't we talk about who the Black Panther's support, or the Weather Underground? That has about as much relevance...

And i don't support destruction of property or police violence in any instance
This is where the left has stepped over the line. The left is destroying on a weekly basis and, attempting to shut down anyone who disagrees with them. They claim that hate speech has no place in American dialogue, and only they get to define what hate speech is...

I've already had this discussion. Perhaps i wasn't clear before. i was saying the violence is similar to what we saw when obama was elected, and these violent people are not associated with the peaceful organized and scheduled protests. That's literally the entire argument here that somehow the the entire "left", which includes democrats, have been roped in to the violence of a few extremist groups. My point was to make blanket statements like that i could say all the conservatives are violent because of the actions of a few. It's better to understand the reason for the protests instead of discrediting them all as violent people when they were only the actions of a small minority of extremists.
Did republicans go in the street and peacefully organize against obama? No. Did a certain subsection of conservatives hold small rallys promoting hate and violence? Yes. Did liberals (dems/leftists) have the same problems this election? Yes. Does it mean the left is a party of violence and fascists? No, but somehow that's what i am being told on this board (along with childish insults).
What is there to argue here?
