Can’t both groups be violent? I’d worry more about being in black poor area on a daily basis, but about MAGA more when it comes to domestic terror and potential civil war.

When that happens, as a Jew I’ll be in equal danger from both groups.

If both groups were violent, we’d be seeing the same level of willful destruction in MAGA and conservative areas as we see in liberal areas. We aren’t, so I guess the answer to your question is no.

If unarmed rioters attack police/resist, refuse lawful orders, and are aggressive then law enforcement has every right to use force.

The Trayvon Martin, and Mike Brown situations in my opinion were justified and I have also posted that what Daniel Penny did was justified. It's not a Dem or Republican issue comply with lawful orders or face the consequences not that hard. I back the Blue.

Ashley Babbit did not attack anyone. She was shot while climbing through a window, which would be a pretty awkward position to get aggressive in.

I can go off onto all sorts of tangent examples with this one, but the bottom line is that Free Speech fun- uh - absolutists (Damn, I could never get that one right off the bat) -- they either are dyed-in-the-wool true believers people's ability to completely control their feelings (which is bogus) OR they use shaming language to invalidate the target's dignity (which is just a cheap shaming tactic). I simply can't take these Free Speech Over All types claims seriously.
