You must think people reading your posts are really dumb. And then, you seem to condone violence. Yet you maintain this animosity that democrats use it. Which is it? Is violence okay, regardless of your side?

And violence means everything, eh? Nice approach you've got there. Besides, what exactly is unconstitutional about it? Trust me sir/madam, you're in no position to determine that... please leave it to the courts if it gets even that far.

Well the citizens of the United States were telling what they wanted and the Goverment turned on them what do you people expect? It don't matter if the Bill is good or not.It wasn't right the way it was pushed through.

Actually, many riots were quite successful in bringing upon needed changes. The civil rights movement for example was pushed forwarded greatly by rioting, often times in protest of unfair police actions..

I dont agree that rioting has always be propagated and advocated by Democrats. I would agree that most likely its Democrats who have a tendancy to take to the streets and protest more than Republicans, but thats not rioting..

There will be no riots, its just more fear mongering by Democrats..

Some like riots and problems until they went through it then realize its harder than it looks to make it through. Look at the Vietnam war.

I'm pretty sure that someone tried to tell the founders of the United States that violence was not the answer when they first contemplated revolution from an oppressive Great Britian...thankfully they acted on their own volition, instead of being told that violence wasn't the way

Well without violence, America would still be a colony of the U.K. Unfortunately, violence is a necessity, regardless.

If it comes to violence now, it will be directed at Democrats and so-called "liberals." So, what are you doing? Blaming the victim?

Remember, Ayers did too. But chances are you call him a terrorist.
