An unhinged mob

[vulcanlogician]

Almost everything (if not everything) that was said in the OP video was taken out of context. Corey Booker saying, "You need to get up in your congressman's face" was obviously meant to mean that constituents need to make their political desires known to their representatives in a proactive and explicit way. Do you think Booker meant that literally?

Very possibly, considering the activities that have been going on. But you go to the most ambiguous one. Auntie Maxie was clearly advocating such behavior, don't you think?

I don't know. Probably not. If these people really wanted to make their case concerning leftist mobs, they would have presented everything in a clear context and made specific claims about who was inciting mobs and how. Instead they went with "scary montage."

People say forceful things when giving speeches, even if they are running for governor or something innocuous like that: "We have to fight!" or "We have had enough!" "It's time to take back what's ours!"... all kinds of things. Unless proper context is supplied, or specific claims of inciting mobs are made and backed up with evidence, I'm not going to take any of it seriously.
