[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Property damage, theft, and violence should be condemned at all times, but thus far, both sides have exhibited condemnable behavior. I have more respect for Bowser's equal tolerance of destructive behavior as opposed to enacting a double standard.[/quote]

If you have equal regards for people who are protesting for Black people to be treated fairly and "Western Chauvinists" (let's be real, racists) looking to pick a fight, then you are part of the problem.[/quote]

If you really think (un)popular opinion is the deciding factor for shutting down political speech, you've never read the 1st Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.  Making you "part of the problem" of the uneducated American people.

Respecting the bedrock principles of America — such as, say, free speech and the right to peaceably assemble — doesn't make me a racist.  Don't even try that $h!t.  [/quote]

Yep. And in this case, the instigators were the so-called "counter protesters" -- the larping Antifa losers who absolutely do NOT believe in free speech (or democracy) and gather illegally to attack and/or provoke a violent response. Both sides are moronic idiots deserving of condemnation... but Antifa are worse.[/quote]

Disagree completely.  Proud Boys and the white supremacists are all about hurting people.  Antifa hurt property.  Do you see the difference there?

I'm no fan of Antifa.  To say the least, but to ignore that they don't punch, run over, shoot, or otherwise murder or injure other people and the Proud Boys do absurd.[/quote]

I'm sorry to differ with you, but many Antifa types absolutely DO threaten and attack people. There is tons of video of this, in Portland, MN, and even DC a couple of months ago when Trump supporters gathered. [/quote]

Yes antifa is just as bad. SAME people, just different excuses.[/quote]

Hey, so if we can say that Antifa and Proud Boys are both awful and should be condemned, that's progress.

But quit with the "what about Antifa" nonsense when people are complaining about the Proud Boys.[b] I can say "I hate cancer" and I don't hear people say "But what about ebola??"[/b] [/quote]
