    I take it you approve of people making the lives of others miserable. When have these 'protests' ever proved to be fruitful? Pissing people off does more harm to a cause than help it.

    You're confusing us with what liberals have done for the past 4 years. Just because the left riots and screams at the sky doesn't mean sensible people will.

    My friend drives Hazardous Materials trucks, he was told that he is not to stop for anyone blocking traffic. Depending on what he is hauling if one of those peaceful children were to light up his truck, 8 city blocks could disappear in an instant.

    Would CNN refer to that as "Mostly Peaceful Annihilation"

    Try read #1, above.
    Specifies, " anyone who riots, burns, loots, blocks traffic, harms another person, impedes commerce in any way, , "
    Nothing mentioned of 10 years etc. GOT HYPERBOLE?



    Non violent?
    That definition has changed since my Vietnam protest days

    Agreed, as long as they are required to make FULL financial restitution to those whom have been damaged......no matter how long they have to work to do it.

    So I assume, then, that you will peacefully accept the result if Trump wins? And you will be vocally and vociferously against any from the left who demonstrate their dissent in that case?

    Someone dying because first responders couldn’t get to them on time is violent enough for me.

    As the post that you are quoting was about riots and looting and violence, I can say that I will be against anyone who participates in that behavior, not matter the winner.

    I think holding rioters accountable while also holding government employees accountable when they break the law would be a fair tradeoff
