You have to admit Republicans accepted the election results when Obama was elected even though we did not like it and thought he was not doing things right for the country. No marching in the streets and tearing up and burning down things on campuses.

What do you say to the radicals you know and how do you think they can be stopped from all the marching and violence? You know this just destroys your party. How did the radical left take over your party?
Good for them.

I don't know what "siting violence" means. It seems nonsensical. When it moves from peaceful demonstration to violence, it's a problem. Most radical democrats don't condone shooting up baseball games just as most radical Republicans don't condone murdering people on trains. The fact that you think this is a serious question is far more interesting than the rather banal question itself is.

How did the radical right take over your party? I don't even seen any moderate republicans anymore. All insane extremists who are trying to destroy this country.

Your post is ridiculous.

Kinda funny how I expected the responses I've seen from some of the posters on here. Ones who can't seem to have an open mind about anything and blindly just follow what they're told to do.

That wasn't liberalism when I grew up.

I condemn violence of any kind whether it be from the far right or far left. Both are equally disgusting. That's not how we do things here in the US. And that includes your hard right brethren on this board who have recently been calling for all out civil war should Trump be removed from office by a Constitutionally approved method.

I have a feeling, based on your posting history, that you are trying to propagate the lie that only the left commit violent acts. I am suspicious of your motives here.

B.S. the Cheeto conned the working class. I am a blue collar worker and I voted for Clinton like a sane non-rich person

And here is a follow up of VP Pence condemning what was done to that man.

There is never any excuse for violence, whether its the Portland incident or the incident yesterday. You do realize though, that is a small, small percentage of "liberals" who are actually violent people. Most are heavily opposed to violence, moreso than the average conservative.

Turn off Sean Hannity and get to personally know some people who may not feel the same way about Trump as you do. It might help you be more empathetic to the other side.

Well, it is the Democrats who are losing elections acting this way. I would think the leadership would be worried about it and try to shut down the far left violent demonstrations. Instead Hillary says she is "joining the resistance", how is that for calming down her followers?

I never watch Hannity or listen to Rush Limbaugh either, I do watch the news though and see the riots.

Crazies News Network did a great job giving daily poisonous bias and hate directed to their listeners. They have a very sick message . It took hold in many minds and the product of the poisonous message is hate and division.. GUARD YOUR HEART for what you believe. Guard your mind of the division of hate.

I remember going to the Trump rallies and Trump would talk about the bias of the media that we all know exists. Trump would point to all the cameramen in the back. We would turn our heads to them smiling. We knew enough they were just hired to record the news. They were not hated. We all were smiling at them. No hate.
