The left wants to call these peaceful but destroying property and making death threats against our President Elect is not peaceful.

ISIS is gloating over what is going on
ISIS Thrilled At Anti-Trump Protests, Says

We need to fight this new Radical Domestic Liberal Terrorism (RDLT)
Contact James Comey.

Get the GOP's lapdog FBI on the case ASAP.

That'll do it.

Once again the example of adding and subtracting words and twisting the meaning.

The poster said group

You said 1/2 of the people and falsely claim the poster labeled 1/2 of them terrorist.
Just like Obama. He couldn't separate the small group of Islamic terrorist from Muslims.

It must be frustrating for liberals when they realize people see the tactics they use. Point them out and call them on their BS.

A practice that needs to happen every time until they get the message. No one is buying the BS anymore.

I read many cd posts and the news etc, so my answers are in general as a whole, not just to that one post. Two -just got back and read this thread, go see all the name calling, belittling etc. - as I don't really care what anyone has to say about me, as it's just a forum, it's just words on a pc. if it was face to face or in real time, not sure I would not take offense and respond. But I challenge you, go count....

They were arrested and tried in a court of law, and they did far less damage than your buddies "protesting", less than the BLM riots, less than the Ferguson riots, the list goes on and on.

If the media didn't show up no one would even have known about them taking over an empty building literally in the middle of nowhere eastern Oregon. But sure, that's exactly the same thing as shutting down freeways, destroying businesses, hundreds of thousands of dollars of damage at just one car dealership, yep, exactly the same thing.

Protests, even violent protests, are not terrorism. The motivations are completely different.

hmmm...its a subtle and VITAL difference actually. Terrorists want change in government. As do protesters. The difference is in WHAT they do. One wants the political change to occur because people are afraid of them, the other wants change because people hear them, and see their level of concern.

And that to me is the critical difference.

Will we see terrorism? Probably. But the protests are not terrorism. Despite how many here have posted about how eager they are to start shooting them, or have the military do so. These people are patriots. They want change. They want to say they want change.

If they damage property? They arent terrorists, they are criminals.

If they kill people? That STILL isn't enough to make them terrorists if they are doing it in the heat of the moment. The second they kill someone to make others afraid....thats terrorism to me.

Shrug. You can pick small minorities of them, and declare they are all that?

Meanwhile you must have missed the thread yesterday where people were all excited about killing protestors, and calling in the military.

The majority of them are exercising their rights. They are protesting so that people know this is a problem. They believe in America.

The DNC is planning to elevate this guy as chief.
Scary stuff!
Speaking of terrorism..


Ellison is a black Muslim from Minnesota – not exactly a reflection of the crowd the Democrats lost in 2016. He’s also a radical leftist on economic policy, endorsed by socialist Senator Bernie Sanders. As Jack Heretik of Free Beacon points out, “He supported impeaching then-Vice President Dick Cheney, compared President George W. Bush to Hitler, and blamed Bush for the September 11 attacks.” He’s radically anti-Israel, too; he compared Israel to South African apartheid, and wanted Israel to grant concessions to the terrorist group Hamas. Ellison was linked to the anti-Semitic Nation of Islam, and as The Weekly Standard reports, “he himself mouthed those views.”
