    But not to infringe on the rights of others

    i agree, if any are violent they should be arrested, but not just for protesting, we may not agree with the protest, but they still have a right to do it

    it's no ones place to do so... and everyone has a spirit, soul whatever you want to call it, so that is just nonsense

    Tea Party radicals engaged in violence, made threats against the president, carried insulting and racist placards, and the right wing applauded instead of telling them to accept the election results and go home.

    Not in the reality-based universe. You are confusing orderly and peaceful and non-racist Tea Partiers with Occupy Wall Street cop car crappers and bridge bombers and building burners and heavy drug users and rapists. You could tell the difference. The Tea Party people actually worked for a living and took showers.

    No, Trump is not the one to address the riots. The riots are the result of the lefts contentiousness, exaggerations and lies. Consequently, only the left can call it back. But instead, they are doubling down. It is a matter of choice. And this is the choice they've made. So I predict another losing run, culminating in a great loss for them because this is just more of the same. I predict a greater demoralization of the left. Eventually their roars will cease and they will squeak like mice, sigh, and moan from the pain of their own making. I could be wrong, but I don't believe that their path and eventual demise can be reversed or prevented. Seemingly, justice and eternity call for the annihilation of their contention and rage. Perhaps leaving gems....or fellow Americans.

    And did I say that they don't? NO, I did not. Of course people have the right to protest as long as it's peaceful, but they rarely are. These bastards have no right to destroy other people's property. One thing that's so twisted about their mentality is that they are more than likely destroying another Hillary voter's property and they don't care.

    They have the right. Others have the right to call them sniveling babies.
    That's the beauty of liberty.

    In Trumps defense he did say that he was proud of the protesters for caring about the country that much.

    I think its a lose-lose for Trump with the ideologically invested crowd of which there are many emotional babies in handling this fair, democratic election..

    agree, it would be like Obama speaking to those upset about him winning in 2008, nothing he could say woudl ease their minds, he just needed to give them time

    he has tried, but until we end prohibition the crime will continue to exist as it pours billions into the gangs

    prohibition is the gateway to crime for many

    But do not worry, Trump says he will fix the inner cities, read his lips.....

    Trump is not President yet. His Administration will deal with the savagery when they they can.

    They're just having fun with those on your side who lowered yourselves to that level prior to the election.
    Willing to dish? Be happy to receive.

    It's been 8 years. Obama never mentions black violence and savagery.

    yes, and that is what they think they are doing in return to republicans that did this to Obama

    that is why our country is so divided, neither side even attempts to be respectful anymore

    I wish republicans would of gave Obama a chance and I feel we shoudl do the same for Trump

    Our leftists collectively would poop a brick were he to do that and actually take the side of law and order in a genuinely meaningful manner.

    Perhaps that is something best left to Illinois Governor Rauner? After all he is the top elected official in the state. If he feels he needs help he can always reach out to the federal government.

    I doubt anyone knows what Trump will do.

    His claims are all over the board.

    Now, he's claiming he will spend stupendous sums on infrastructure, but Obama has been pushing congress to do that for 8 years now, and they've totally rejected that.

    And, having the cops shoot more people in depressed neighborhoods is not going to result in law OR order.

    Today, it is BLM that is calling for law and order.

    Bet he won't betray, condemn, and scold law enforcement, like Obama has always done.

    You liberals are outrageous. Not only was Obama one of the most pathetic presidents in history, now you expect the president elect to do his job for him for the last few months?
