Gianforte's win is a sea change for US politics; Violence is OK now

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

We're punching back against you guys if anything.








The last image is of a man who attempted to assassinate Trump by stealing a Secret Service agent's gun.

Good ol' Sanchez ignoring the problems with his politics because Both Sides Do It™

The problem is your side. I'm not ignoring the problem at all. Your side does it.

ah yeah, supporters doing sh**t and politicans punching journalists is ofc the same level.

I've not repeatedly condemned Gianforte as "Crazy Greg?" The man's actions were wrong. But the bar has been lowered, and not by us.

Badger, are the crows starting to peck at you up their on your cross?

Don't call me a martyr just cuz I'm pointing out you're a complete hypocrite and grotesquely tolerant of right-wing violence is somehow merely evening the score or something. Pretty weak argument, but nothing less than what we've come to assume

I mean, I must say that I'm at lost for words. You just had the most embarrassing meltdown on here since IndyTexas revealed he hates Jews.

you have, sanchez, and i got no beef with ya, but comapring support doing shoot and the actions of elected politicans is.....one bridge too far, imho.

What seperates Gianforte the man from Gianforte the politician though? It's not like he's a Republican invented robot (or is he?)

Ironic to see Badger devolve into conspiracy theories about false flags now. Maybe he thinks I was the guy with the Mexican flag in San Jose throwing the eggs or something because of my username.

Guys, the Antifa protesters and other people you see getting into fights on YouTube and other people you talk about in AltRight circlejerks are not Democratic party officials or Democratic party elected members of government. I have not voted for them. I am not one of them. I have not supported them. No Democratic electorate has voted for them. The Guardian and other mainstream journalistic outlets have not hired them. Nor have they endorsed them. Denounce them all you want but that does not change that PF should be ejected from Congress pronto.

College campuses have created an environment where Antifa and like-minded people are tolerated.  And today's college students are tomorrow's leaders.  In 20 years we will see people like the Bikelock guy in public office.

oh come one...in the 60s/70s, they were blowing up college campuses and rioting on a near daily basis. Today it's just a bunch of hipsters swinging a bike lock that's so heavy that they fall over holding it.

Conservatives have been complaining about college campuses since Buckley wrote God and man at Yale in 1951.

I swear American politics is the same sh*t being complained about over and over

That's true, the protesters grew up.  And that might happen again.  But the '60s activists weren't demanding censorship, they were activists for freedom (though in a very flawed way).

It is funny that the purveyors of National Lampoons are now the voices saying "you can't say that" or "you can't do that."

Piss off you deluded little spambot in a bubble. You reek and crawl and stretch for the most desperate and pathetic attempts at parody where none exists outside your own little white nationalist cocoon. It's your world that's under threat because you are a republican operative and you could not give a flying crap about anyone outside your world who is threatened. Stop it Sanchez you ignorant and worthless posting little twerp. I have tried to restrain myself as much as possible in this post, but you have just broken my patience. This is not to separate opinions this is you throwing over facts and getting ready to break your red boot laces back on so you and English Pete can go teach those dirty left-wingers what real violence means.

I'm done with you and even pretending that you have any redeeming qualities to this form whatsoever you little racist unreformed neo-Nazi. Now please mods, protect this in the name of free speech you bunch of hypocritical Goons

Err, you're one of the most uninteresting people on this forum. Who cares about your "patience"?

Who are you again?

Oh yeah, the one note wonder who doesn't distinguish between Israel's right to exist and Israel Uber Alles. Very fascinating posting history there

Boy you are particularly salty today, aren't you?

Not true...in 1967, there was a 300 student riot to prevent Dow Jones from speaking or recruiting at U of W due to the fact they made Napalm for the Vietnam War. There are other examples like Nixon being relentlessly booed at Oxford Union.

Like I said: just the same sh*t over and over

The people booing Nixon at Oxford were outside the hall, TBF. They just outnumbered the Nixon audience like a gazillion to one. Nor were they violent.

Some Guardian blogger accosting a politician and getting in his face (and then inventing a transparently exaggerated story about how hard he was pushed back) has no special status above any other member of the public doing the same.

in fact he downplayed his own beating, maybe cause he was too shocked and everything went too fast.

the fox news camera crew told the world about the shocking and unhinged violence which really took place.

Post incident, Ben Jacobs has been nothing but professional. The night of the incident is still murky.

"Murky".

And therein lies another implicit defense of pianoforte. But hey, he was just among those fighting back against threatening liberals.

i am never going to understand sanchez's deep-seated hate of the media but he has rejected GF as soon as it was clear, what has happened.

Thank you. Badger is not entitled to his own facts.
