Everybody Knew This Was Coming

Isn't is amazing that with all the talk about how "extreme" the right is...that over and over again...the violence overwhelmingly is done by the left? Jan. 6th gave the left the means to claim that conservatives were trying to overthrow the country...an amazing claim considering that it was a protest that turned violent...lasted less than 24 hours...had Congress back in session the next day and the only person that was killed was an unarmed conservative protester! Now compare THAT to dozens of riots by the left that lasted months...caused billions of dollars in damage and dozens of deaths! Who's REALLY extreme in this country?
 
You're blaming Trump for an extremist shooting him? Seriously, Stan? Not your brightest post...just saying!
No I'm looking at it logically. If someone incites / appeals to extremists this is a end result. Are you trying to say trump didn't / doesn't attempt to incite people. LOL , that's an impossible task for anyone , don't even bother. Blame is something stupid people do. I prefer to look at cause and affect / effect when it comes to human relationships and interactions. Emotions simply cloud the picture and don't allow a clear understanding of what and why these nasty interactions occur.

That would be the right ,practically all republicans are now extremists and those who aren't are outcasts.trump attacked 19 republicans so far. You can be sure most of them were moderates. The republican base also has a lot of extremists. The left has extremists but they are much less in numbers and more importantly in power. That makes the right the bigger problem. Wait til trump loses in November ,the right-wing extremists will be crawling out of the woodwork.

OK...so look at the attempted assassination. What was the "cause"? What made that young man think that shooting another human being was something that he needed to do?

You're literally calling nearly half the nation "extremists", Stann and you're doing so simply because they don't agree with YOUR political viewpoint!

You're EXACTLY the kind of person I was referring to in my earlier posts!

If you look at my previous posts you'd see I mentioned that a lot of extremists are crazy. You'd have to be a specialist and get into his head to understand why this foolish young man took such extreme ( aka crazy ) action. I personally believe the internet and hyper-partisan atmosphere that trump largely created is a root cause. People weren't meant to be " on " all the time. Human beings aren't as smart as they think they are and are actually very weak in many areas.

I hate to break this to you, Stann but anyone claiming half the people in the US are extremists is an extremist that is clueless that he IS an extremist!

In the first part I was referring to politicians . Yes , most of the new republicans are extremists. When you can't negotiate your position ,when you view your opposition as the " enemy "that is an extremists. The civilians on the other hand are also affected. No way of exact measurements but it's definitely higher in the republican ranks
Maybe 25 %, I don't know. They don't want to discuss ,they just want to blame and have it all their way. Democrats are much more " Live and let live. "

So am I an extremist, Stann?

So 'The Squad' believe in "live and let live", Stann...is that what you're claiming?
 
You right wingers are sooooooo predictable. Everybody knows what's coming. The racism, the sexism, all of it., there sin't goingto be any of you go low we stay high. You guys have asked for this brawl. Now it's on. And let me tell you that when you star tthis shit, you will ensure a trump defeat.


Keep it up.
As predictable as the sunrise.
 
I don't know you, Are you a reasonable person or do you believe people should be made to believe as you do ?
I believe that people should be made to believe as I do if I present a valid argument as to why that should happen. I don't believe they should believe as I do simply because I tell them to!

And how many squads are on the republican side or are they too numerous to count. The so-called squad members are left-wing extremists ,anyone else you can think of who is ? The ones on the republican side of the aisle are too nervous to count.

There is a squad on the GOP side? Pray tell, Stann...what squad would that be?

Too nervous to count? You lost me, Stann...what does that even mean?

You'd have to ask him yourself.I bet you'll get no where , guys like that are simply crazy. Craziness does not need an excuse ,all it needs is a venue. And we have far too many venues available to us.
