    They need to be dealt with.

    Im calling on congress, nationally as well as state govt's to prosecute these terrorists.

    (terrorism is violence for political purposes)

    So you don't answer my questions and resort to questioning my spelling? Is that all you got?

    I guess you figure Republicans will keep winning forever. How will you react when Democrats prove you wrong?

    Impeach over nothing? Then the Democrats will simply do what Trump did. What's good for the goose...

    Are you just trolling?

    There WHAT is? It's the truth. And if the Conservative Republicans on THIS board are any example, they will be just as responsible for the escalate division as the liberal Democrats, IMO.

    You want us to end our hate?

    You first.

    But you are okay with the hate that incites it.

    So, expect people to act accordingly based of what they think of your beliefs and morals.

    Are liberal Democrats monsters in your eyes? Are you going to treat them as such?

    As long as the flakes dont put their grubby paws on me, we will get along fine. And your strawmen are your own statements

    No-one said anything like that. This is a huge problem with some people. Twisting and misrepresenting what people have said and then believing it to be true and arguing the point.

    Why can't you not take what has actually been said at face value?

    No answer required it was a rhetorical question.

    Sorry, I don't watch videos posted on message boards. I want your direct opinions and feelings, not what I view as an evasion .

    Why not just tell me how you really feel. What you truly believe?

    Are you afraid?

    Without strawmen, this board's activity, might drop 30%.

    Because your replies sound like evasive, misdirecting trolling to me. They don't really give me any info on exactly what you mean and believe. I'm trying to understand the why of your opinions, but I am interpreting your response as an attack.

    If we don't at least understand each other, how can we have honest, serious debate and discussion?

    Perhaps try and reword your responses? What exactly do you think I am twisting, and how am I twisting it?

    Okay.

    But, not saying I would, but you know there are plenty of ways to hurt a person that don't involve physical harm, right?

    What will you do about that?

    My opinions are clear and concise. When attacked for nothing other than someone doesn't like what you are wearing I do not believe the victim is at all responsible. Not in any way shape or form.

    The "why" of my responses should be glaringly obvious.

    I have not attacked you anywhere in the thread or elsewhere. I think you are a little confused.

    You hit the nail on the head. The maga hat has been used as a divisive symbol, like the white hooded robes.
    Trouble is, today's minorities are not so easily cowed and ain't prepared to take it anymore.

    Just because the person is not responsible doesn't mean I can't think they did a stupid and possibly morally wrong thing. There is no reason to wear your maga hat in public in these divisive times unless you are picking a side and want the whole world know it. And if you are picking a side, you are opening yourself up to attacks from the other side.

    And yeah, I know it may be illegal, but it still happens.

    As far as the attacker? I believe in PROPORTIONAL response. You don't kill someone for them taking one pot shot at you and then standing down. And that counts for the non physical responses as well.

    I also believe in trying to understand your enemy, and not allowing anger to consume you. I admit, I am not perfect. But I am trying to be better. But I admit, I do get mad when I see people who don't seem to want to do the same.

    Perhaps I am mistaking your responses for another, and if so, I apologize for any misunderstanding. I think this because I am responding to one person, and another person is interjecting their opinion instead of the original poster.

    Rubbish. This is also divisive by your standards. Whereas I don't see either as being divisive.

    Yes, your comment warranted the response it got. Try again...

    Wow. This disturbs me a bit, I will admit.

    Do you actually feel emotions?

    Your last statement indicates you WOULD excuse political violence for other reasons. Care to elaborate?
