    Let me TLDR it for you: Rights are bullshit. And there's actually a great philosophical debate about that: Whether rights are Natural or man-given. I think the beautiful example of the first(and your graph here) shows how it is indeed man given.

    Maybe you can explain how the first amendment protects his rights from anyone other than government entities.

    Yes, that is what I propose. What would you do?

    Assault being illegal doesn't stop it from happening, and you cannot legally force people to conform to YOUR legal standards.

    So what would you do?

    agree.

    who got caught cheating in baseball, the red sox and the astros?
    Those hats certainly might cause a dodgers fan some distress, they were caught cheating...
    punchable offense?

    I'm not asking anyone to conform to any standard, I'm just asking law enforcement to punish them accordingly, then i'm asking the public to not forget, and take their response to the voting booth.

    I'm already complying with the no political apparel idea, I don't think anyone in Iowa or New Hampshire was doing that, so, I guess they should all consider themselves lucky that they didn't get punched in the face, and that applies to all the other states, be prepared for a knock on the head, knowing full well that its their fault for triggering someone,

    the world according to Rex, its a sad world where violence is expected.

    Just so its crystal clear: I have no idea what my standards are except charge the nasty biach with assault. I believe that means i'm in line with the local laws that apply.

    Nope, she didn't have any legal standard. Didn't stop her though, did it?

    How would you stop actions like hers?

    I have a family and responsibilities, it keeps me from committing crimes. It also keeps me from doing things that I consider dangerous, like provoking emotionally or mentally unstable people.

    But everyone is not the same, and IMO, as the political divide worsens and peoples emotions ratchet up, I think we will see many more attacks like this, from both sides.

    Do you want to prevent that? I don't think it is possible. People want rights without responsibilities. Neither side wants compromise. Both sides pile all the blame on the other side.

    Doing anything you want, as long as it's not explicitly illegal, will only escalate things further.

    The laws they make do not only apply to government entities. His actions were lawful. The snowflaky lefty lady committed a crime.

    While I am not a fan of either party, the left is known for violating first amendment rights for those with opposing views. Until recently, college campuses used the "Free Speech Zone" to violate free speech rights for anyone not towing the lefty line. Trump protesters set up tents, passed out fliers, and used bull horns while a student passing out copies of the constitution was threatened with removal my law enforcement if he didn't move to the "Free Speech Zone"

    Why would you have to silence others if your beliefs were so great?

    Lol...As usual, you would be wrong.
    This perfectly sums up the racist ignorance of people who think trump is right.

    This is the sort of country trump supporters dream of- ignorant intolerance posing as nationalism.

    Lol...So why do right-wingers get apoplectic over gay marriage? Are they afraid that it will force them to turn queer?

    Why? Are you implying people should make wardrobe choices based on worrying if crazy liberals are lurking about?
    I say people wear whatever hats they want and if liberals wanna make a move, everything after that is self defense. I see some dead libs in the future and all over a damn hat!

    Well, if you kill a "lib" over your hat, I'd do it in the next 11 months, so Trump can pardon you...

    After that, law and order might once again rule the land...

    I wouldn't wear a Maga hat personally. I'm just saying in general..the act of going up to strangers and punching them is bound to lead to deadly retaliation from someone at some point. I see your trump hate is keeping you from being able to engage in logical conversation though.
    Sad. :(

    Dude, I wasn't the one posting insinuations about people killing 'libs'...

    I'm not saying anger over wearing this divisive symbol is right... I'm simply saying it's out there and everybody needs to be aware of that before going in that direction.... there's nothing more logical than that...

    But violating the First Amendment or anyone's civil rights is not on the list of crimes she could potentially be charged with. Care to tell the class why?

    Nah, it's a live and let live kinda thing on this side. A "mind your own business" kinda thing. When we're minding our own business and and an anti-Trumper (or anyone for that matter) comes in and provokes us by getting violent, it's not a shocker when it's met with violence.

    When did we try to silence a lefty?

    Both the colleges and law enforcement are government entities - states fund and administer most colleges, and private universities are not bound by the First Amendment (https://harvardcrcl.org/first-amendment-on-private-campuses/). Your example fails to prove your point.

    NEXT! :roflol:
