Give it a rest. All of you folks (both "sides") are collectivists.


I don't want anything shoved down my throat. Not religion, abortion restrictions, food labels, or affirmative action.


Violence is violence. Whether it's done in the street or with a pen all of you condone it.

You condone a system where violence is inevitable. Violence in the form of rape, robbery and murder.

Which system is that? I'm an anarchist. There is no violence in anarchy...despite what you may have heard. Only self-defense.

Anarchists rape, kill and steal too. Anarchists are also victims of rape, robbery and murder.

Some people see things as they never were and ask why?

My answer is that it is incompatible with human nature.

Correct me if I'm mistaken, but in anarchy there is no law, and without enforced laws power wins out and the strong force-feed their ways and demands to the weak. Thus you end up with some corn-pone nazi in control as strong-man/dictator. So anarchy really only lasts as long as that takes.

While I can see self-defense in it, I can also see the opportunity for real unopposed offense.

Talking Is there a reason why liberals protest conservative events, but not vice versa?

Liberals, ever think this tyranny of ideas is the reason why Donald Trump is going to win? Because independent voters are tired of safe spaces, Black Lives Matter, "triggering", etc.?

Any more red herrings in your little bag of today's talking points?

I protest all the time for all reasons-- not a robot or a yes man- and use my critical thinking- to question everything

you are right about the animalistic blood lust... you are wrong about them not being smart.




go look up Cloward and Pivin.
go look up Saul Alinsky


They have been planning this for years.

They hate you and will destroy your life and they think that is a holy and righteous thing to do.
I think of it as lack of class and arrogance. Conservatives , true one that is, try not to push their views down everyone's throats. They try and find a peaceful way to get their point across. Of course I am generalizing, it does cross both sides, but it is rare to see protesting conservatives get out of hand. They do their protesting in a civilized way, as a rule.
