But it's good to see there are still decent people around who step in.

I assume that perpetrator is a coward, why else would he pick on young girls rather than adult men...
So, Trump inspired the students at Berkeley?

Because free speech they say.
On the other hand, they might have shot the guy once he pulled a knife or stabbed the first person as they're not afraid of tools that go BANG like those liberal bed wetters that demand to live in "gun free" zones.

Of coarse not.... Using my own words I would make him look like a fool. If he wished at that point to escalate the situation, because he was at a loss of words, so be it... Buyer Beware!

They may just buy the farm, if they want to go to the next level.

Their agenda ​is the least palatable to me.

When comparing the parties, I vote for the one that reviles me the least. So far that has been the Democrats. I see these evangelical nut jobs that call themselves Republicans and all I can think of is how they'd love nothing more than to turn this country into another theocratic hell hole like they have in the Middle East.

I have yet to figure out why Republicans rail against the Islamics over there yet want the same here, only Christian. I guess it's just a matter of whichever religion they find tolerable.
Yeah, I feel the same about how so many liberals want an all powerful government that censors speech, decides how much money people can make, decides who you can associate with, chooses immigrants over citizens and wants to get rid of the Constitution.

That is exactly what the 2nd amendment is for.

I feel sorry for these guys that got killed, as they did not understand the bill of rights very well.
Your brain is the most powerful weapon you own. When it fails you, a lesser weapon is not going to get you very far.

Without threats of violence, I defend this mans right to say what ever the hell he wishes.
It takes a pretty sick person to defend this murderer but I guess you are just that sick.

I'm down with open borders, under a few stipulations.
End the entitlement welfare state completely.
End all income based taxes.
End the Police State
Community based Militias established.

End any government taking care of and providing the basics, of the people directly.

Stick to our Nation's security and any disputes between the States, Feds!
States need to stick to organizing the community Militias, disputes between Counties, creating and maintaining routes of travel, around private property/real estate and maintaining good water flow, within the state(infrastructure).

Counties/Parishes, is where the people govern themselves.
Cities are private incorporate properties, with their own military and no rights within the boundaries of the incorporated private property(Buyer Beware) They have the power of the collective to vote any rights you have away, and enforce it with their private military.

Of coarse you make that accusation, with nothing to explain, how you possibluy came to that fabricated opinion.

If I tell you, I'm going to kick your ass if you don't shut up.....
You are going to be as silent as a mouse, after that.... SURE YOU ARE!
Threatening anyone, might just get you killed.

Let's not forget recent rules about who can make tortillas and burritos and who can't.

I am not surprised. They feel empowered by Trump and they have been feeding on the hate coming from certain outlets like FOX.
