This is the new form of liberalism. They can be as violent and hateful as they want to be...if it is for the "greater good".

Who cares if taxes go up because of Obamacare? Obamacare is for the greater good.
Who cares if countries lose their cultural identity and have high security risks taking in refugees? It's for the greater good.
Who cares if you individually have the right to bear arms? Getting rid of them is for the greater good.

Basically, if you want freedom in America...it is not the Democratic Party.

Do you mind explaining yourself with your comment "Who cares if countries lose their cultural identity" and how it relates directly to our nation (USA) ?

It's occurring all over Europe, and if you liberals had your way...it'd be the same here.

What is "occurring" ? Explain in detail what you mean by "countries losing their cultural identity."
Define what you mean by "cultural identity."

LOL.
I think what your video just proved is how many people would support Sanders more.
And how trump as the R candidate will lose in the general.

The point of his video is that the guy in the hoodie with his dumb earbuds physically assaults a person for stating his God-given American right to support someone for President.

But to liberals like him, it's justified, because it's for the "greater good".

Scotland is a great example. There were muslims in Scotland for a long, long time. However, they considered themselves "Scots first". These refugees are not trying to adapt into the culture of these European countries, which is why you're seeing people saying "Enough."

First of all, most of that video looks to be "set-up," (fake) especially the guy in the hoodie pushing the host of the video.
But besides that (assume its true), who says "liberals" justify his violence/assault ? Are you assuming this ? Yes there might be a few wacky liberals that may say it's justified, but the vast majority of liberals or non-liberals will say that this specific "incident" is never justified.
Again, don't take what you hear from a (very) small minority of people as "the word of God" and make a yuge issue of it.

Do you want people going around saying that all conservatives "justify" the specific violence that occurred when a trump supporter at a rally, repeatedly beat a protester on the steps going up to exit the facility ? That trump follower hit and kicked the protester, which was 10 times more violent than the pushing this guy did in the video posted above.
If someone is not harming you directly/physically, it is never justified to push/kick/hit that other person because they are expressing an opinion (and you disagree).

I detect some xenophobia here.

Neither. Let's move on to more important questions, like making fun of Hillary Clinton

Sanders' supporters to Trump: Racist, sexist, homophobe, xenophobe, misogynist
Trump supporters to Sanders: Socialist, unrealistic, looney

Ok, but who's more violent?

Comments...

I'm far more worried about the candidate openly calling for violence on the campaign trail.

The point is that there used to be a time not too long ago when people could disagree about political issues without feeling the need to assault each other. Frankly, it's reached a point where liberals are quick to paint all conservatives as violent racist nuts, and conservatives are quick to paint all liberals as violent socialist nuts. The fact is that there are more than enough examples of people on both sides willing to lash out for no good reason. Folks should take a step back and remember the example lived by two Irish gentlemen, Ronald Reagan and Tip O'Neil; their politics couldn't have been further separated, but both worked on issues for the betterment of the country, and neither needed to issue ultimatums or attack the other personally. Trump supporters and Sanders supporters should just take a breath and think about what they're doing.
