Not enough! He should be forced to move his family due to death threats.

I’ve never seen it .
I don’t think most people want this to be the new normal .
I think there have been a grand total of 3 or 4 such incidences so far. Wow. I don't condone such behavior, but as I said, you seem to like these type threads. I repeat, the sky is not falling. Relax.

Maybe Bannon thought a bookstore was a safe space.

That washed-up alcoholic thinks there are no consequences for his actions.

He'll find out otherwise.

But do you think a POTUS of candidate calling for violence and beating people down is the new normal? Is bragging about puzzy grabbing the "new normal".

That horse left the barn a LONG time back - probably 1000's of POTUS statements ago. But he keeps repeating them at his rallies for the "new normal" audiences, especially Fox viewer since they are the only channel that broadcasts these hate-gatherings.

Blowback works in every direction. This "older" liberal believes in community standards. I'm not going to have my "naked is great" parade in Salt Lake City in front of the Temple and, at the same time, I'm not going to act as if folks like Bannon are not criminals....historic in nature. Then again, he'd WANT to bear that description and would revel in it.

I would summarize that most Americans don't like the new "Trump normal" and all indications point to that. Now...I would not project that voting will reflect that (for many reasons)...but, never the less, most of us prefer the old way of civility being an example from the very top...and down.

There is more to life than how one can manipulate the media, people, political offices and the like.....there is that old ideal of "can you sleep at night and look in the mirror?".

What family does Bannon have now? Hollywood elites like him usually have a few. I think he divorced his third by now...lots of violence and strange stuff involved in his various dealings....

Steve should move to Florida since he wanted to vote there so badly that he reportedly committed fraud and listed an address he never lived at.

"Bannon told a friend that year he was living in multiple cities, including Washington, New York, London, and Miami (and S. California)... " - hmm.....why does he prefer liberal places? Wouldn't such a man want to be surrounded by his peers?

A safe space is a place that censors ideas so as to provide "snowflakes" a place to hide where they will not encounter any ideas that diffe from their own.

The phrase "safe space" never implied a space safe from public harassment and social bullying, rudeness and other intentionally hostile, intolerant and uncivil behavior.

And if people now need to be concerned with having access to that sort of security as a result of this sort of increasingly fascist conduct by the Democrat left, then you should not be surprised when people who peceive themselves to be potential targets of these sorts of social terror tactics from the unhinged Democrat left take steps to punish the advocates of this sort of conduct. Probably at the ballot box, but if this continues, who knows.

The only one needing a safe space was the classless woman who couldn't handle someone she disagrees with politically being in the store, without being a rude b**ch. When she called him trash she was merely projecting what she is on to him.

Yeah, assaulting people face to face is so yesterday. Even some 70 year old Presidents have learned that Twitter is the new way to do it, and you don't even have to look the person in the eye !
