Senator Cotton Suggests Protesters Should Be Thrown Off Bridges

That sounds like stuff Vladimir Putin would endorse.

Why do you think the GOP is simping for him so hard? He gets to live out their fantasies

Again, you and Trump would both be fine with political civil service workers if they were pushing your ideology.

Yes I would be fine with a political civil service if they were pushing my ideology . They serve at the whim of the president and are not a separate branch of government.

That’s better than what we have Now which is a progressive one regardless of whose president

Yeah, because the Spoils System was famously staffed by incorruptible men.

What we have now is an ideological civil service whose goal is to push the progressive agenda regardless of whose president and regardless of what the president wants to do .

So yes there is nothing wrong with conservatives wanting to have a conservative civil service when a Republican is president. If you think this is a problem then you can always agree to pass the reins act and kneecap their powers but until then it’s only fair that the civil service under a Republican president pushes a conservative agenda .

Is the progressive agenda in the room with us?

Our President ought to stand up for ordinary people.  And he ought to have the courage to not be strongarmed by any ethnic group utilizing political violence on American Soil to attempt to coerce foreign policy changes that are not in America's interest.

Why don’t you just say a damn slur at this point. You’ll get your point across a lot faster and clearer.

It's revealing that you don't think black people/minorities can be ordinary people too. You view them as a tool to subvert society, not as Americans equal to any others.

 I wasn’t the one who singled out “ethnic people” as a distinct and different group from “ordinary people”.

Let's be clear, if you throw someone over a bridge it's murder or attempted murder depending on the outcome. "I NEEDED TO GET TO WORK" is not self-defense. It's not even really about the inconvenience, people like Cotton just have a nature for violence and are looking for any excuse to kill someone who expresses views they don't like.

The republican’s party solution to people they don’t like is almost always the same; dehumanize and hurt them. Doesn’t matter if you’re a protestor, vice president, or a migrant.

Fuzzy, five it a rest. You're doing your side of the argument more bad than good.

It is a pattern though. BLM? "Crush them, beat them, lock them up for life."

J6? "It's not an insurrection and was a legitimate protest."

I won't give it a rest.  It was a riot, and some folks were rightly arrested.  It was not an insurrection, and when America gets honest with itself, that will be clear as well.

The protesters that did not enter the Capitol were wholly legitimate, regardless of what you think of their cause.

What principled methodology (that you would apply to anything consistently) should one use to determine that January 06 was not a riot?
