No. Do you thionk anyone is going to listen if throw bricks or shoot pellot guns at the offices of our leaders? No. All of these acts are going to make conservatives look like a bunch of crazy people when that is not the case at all.

If we want to make a difference in this country and get people to listen to us, we need to follow the example of Martin Luther King Jr. Martin Luther King believed that he could make a difference through PEACEFUL protests and he made a difference.
Take that speech to the Tim McVeigh, 2nd Amendment Rally in Virginia on April 19th. bring you gun and your sheet and hood

It is refreshing to see someone who doesn't agree with the president do it with some class. I can definitely respect that even if our political ideologies differ. You can definitely catch more flies with honey than vinigar. Although I don't agree with you, I would be willing to listen to anyone who can speak without resorting to name calling, generalizations or advocating violence. Not saying that I would change my mind but being divisive, violent and angry is not the answer.

This is about 2010, not 1968. But the bottom line is: Either you agree with using violence as a means to communicate, or you do not.

I don't agree with spitting, breaking windows, or death threats, but I also don't agree with the underlying assertion that elected leaders will start listening to us if we don't do that.

Sorry pal, a few of us disagree.

Did you not read my post before answering? I never said all Democrats are saints, did I?
