But you go off the rails when you start labeling things as peaceful that aren't or denying left wing violence. That is an equal misrepresention as calling everything a mob.
The counter protestors at Charlottesville weren't peaceful. How did the Nazis there get maced in the face? With peace spray? (Whether or not they should be peaceful is another discussion)
Did you miss the part where I said it was a bad analogy?
Regardless - beta fail still doesn't know fuck all of what he's talking about.
I might of missed it. Thread is moving kind of fast. On rereading your posts you didn't deny left wing violence. So I misread you.
I really am not against a little violence in protests anyway. I'm pro-punching Nazis from time to time.
Calling every rowdy protest a mob makes no sense to me. A protest isn't supposed to be this sterile boring thing anyway. It's a fucking protest.
