It may not be a majority of liberals behaving that way, but leftists are also the ones that defend the rioters and make excuses for their insanity. It's the Left that allows this sort of behavior then calls people racist or sexist if they criticize the people behaving like violent animals. The Left's approval of the actions of the rioters make them no different than the rioters themselves.
Exactly this, when you have the liberal media and some liberal politicians encouraging these actions, and supposed leaders ignoring it, than you are complicit in it, and just as responsible. Those are the ones that will cost the Democrats long term support, the idiots on the streets are just bringing it to the forefront and making people realize that the Democrats are supporting a bunch of idiots over the people.
I see this is really getting under your skin. According to the last results I saw, Clinton got 60,839,922 votes (good 500K+ over Trump, not that it matters). The overwhelming majority of those Trump opponents were disappointed after the election and then went back to their daily jobs. And they don't condone violence. So 99.9999% of the people who voted against Trump are NOT out there on the streets. So why do they have some sort of an obligation to take responsibility for the 0.0001% who are?
Furthermore, if Trump wanted to run as an inclusive candidate who can credibly call for unity after the election, he could have not spent the whole season running the most divisive and disrespectful campaign in history, followed up by telling us all before the election that he thought the elections would be a fraud.
If it's not productive to call all supporters of Trump "racist," then it's not productive to call all opponents of Trump "domestic terrorists."
History is written by those who win. If we had lost the American Revolution, the Boston Tea Party would now be regarded as nothing more than vandalism.
I'm not really sure why I felt compelled to point that out, other than the fact that there is always two sides to every story.

It seems to have gotten under your skin.
These protests are historical and are captured for history, like the protests of the women's suffragette movement, the civil rights movement, the anti-Vietnam movement.
The protests are one way for the common person to speak out about the election, instead of just the talking heads in the media. It's a valid exercise of freedom in our democracy.
One way to know about the extent of the anti-Vietnam movement is to look back on video at the protests. Generally when you have that large a population protesting, it reflects a strong, definite feeling in the populace, and there are many more who are not protesting but who feel the same.

It certainly isn't HELPING liberals! We turn on the news after a bitter and divisive election in which our current president Barrack Obama as well as Hillary Clinton have called for us to come together and support the president elect and the choice made on election day and what happens?
They see mobs of 1,000s of liberals in major cities marching with some of the most vile signs and ironically calling for love instead of hate. We see mobs destroying property and setting fires in the very same cities and places that turned out overwhelmingly for Hillary.
No. you don't have to condemn it if you don't want to but it sure isn't helping you.
I'm sure many liberals see these marches as "Fight the power" and "stand up to bigotry and hate".
The rest of America sees a bunch of whiny, hypocritical sore losers who, as you said, likely didn't even bother to vote but are out there acting like animals because the results of a legitimate, democratic election were not to their liking.
The endorsements by the American Nazis and the Klan are real, not BS.
Face it. They are Trumpzis.
So let me ask you, what exactly would you expect someone to do about that? Go arrest them so they can't speak or vote or publicly support the person of their choice? You realize that any real acknowledgment of what the loony groups are saying is just legitimizing them?
How about all the far left loons that were/are supporting Hillary like the communist party of the U.S., anarchists etc?
Do you paint her with the same brush? Hmmm? No? Why not?

And the KKK is even lower ("are like 0.00001%") then that and it doesn't stop the loony left from attempting to say that because THEY ( we have no idea actually how many of then do) support Trump that Trump SUPPORTS THEM yet, that is what we hear from the Lame Stream Media and many posters on here.
