March gets violent

Why is the Left allowed to march everywhere, but not Trump supporters?

And why do the liberal left losers always wear masks to cover their faces?

 

[mary poppins]

What's with the sweeping and inaccurate generalizations?

The Trump rallies occurred throughout the country. One Trump supporter who took part in the violence in California came equipped with a baton, a gas mask and a shield emblazoned with the American flag.

There was no indication that the people wearing masks were liberal left, but I agree they are losers based on the violence they inflicted. The article you linked says anarchists were present.

My question is:

The left have their frequent marches -

Women's march.
Not my President's march
A Day without Immigrants march

And except for minor arrests - no major problems.

For the right - 3 talks at college campuses - Berkeley, CA, New York, Vermont - all shut down due to extreme violence with property destroyed and people injured.

Trump pro march - Violence and people who were beaten bloody.

There was even violence when the President was inaugurated.


Makes me wonder where the problem lies and who is doing it.

This thread reminded me that there were a lot of reports this weekend about the rages Donald Trump has been flying into lately. Supposedly this past weekend he left the White House in a huff. There was footage of him looking furious as he descended a staircase with Ivanka. He went to Florida to calm down, but Steve Bannon had to be sent down. He raged at Obama and felt better, but when his angry tweets weren't backed up by Republicans he was reported to have gotten angry all over again. Is he a rage-a-holic on top of everything else? The "violent" theme fits him.

Since the problems always arise when the right has events, it seems as if the right has problems.

Exactly.

Isn't there already like 500 threads about Trump's tweets, talks and tid-bits?

The right's events only get violent with anti-Trump protestors show up. There were dozens of republican events during the campaign and primaries that had no issues. Seems anti-Trumpers are the problem.

Anti-Trumpers may be the problem for Trump. (Let us hope and pray we are!) But Trump is the problem for democracy and the free world. Not to mention sanity.

The right is doing fine looking forward to a bright future.

It is the left whose heads are exploding and still having tantrums over Trump beating Hillary.

And we aren't going anywhere. I hope people continue being Trump's "problem", since he is the biggest problem to democracy and logic we've seen in quite some time.

One of my kids used to have a tantrum when she did not get what she wanted. And the more attention I gave it the worst it got.

When I started to ignore them, they stopped.

I wish Trump would just ignore the snowflakes, and just concentrate on his job as POTUS.

I said it many times here...
Red, you and Ruby are fighting a losing battle... conservatives are outnumbered 10-1 here on PS. The Dems. are very frustrated nowadays b/c they don't have much power in D.C.

I am not fighting a battle DF. Just expressing an opinion and I will have a back and forth if someone wants to do so. That is not what Deb was doing.

I don't think they're having tantrums over Trump beating Hillary. Hillary supporters got over the fact that Trump won sooner than Trump got over the fact that he won. They are expressing opposition to some of his positions and there are questions as to how he won (Russia issue).

Don't single Lovedogs out here, Red. Leo is toasting all butt-hurt libs equally.

Puhleeeeeze! 'They' object to how he likes his steak cooked, for crying out loud. Trump could divvy up his entire fortune to all U.S. citizens equally, and the left would pitch a fit that he didn't give it to illegal immigrants (while putting their portion toward an ACA).

Sorry, red. Deb had one of her bad days. Daughter had to be hospitalized (psych hospital) yesterday. Deb was mature and appropriate with trying daughter, but had to hold in anger. I'm afraid some anger inappropriately spilled onto the keyboard. I apologize. Love you.

Oh Deb I am so sorry you are going through this! I love you too and am praying hard for you today.

Edit - you never anger me because I know your true heart.

Ruby, is this seriously what you believe? Is it going to be a bright future with a president who threatens the nuclear option on both congress and other countries if he doesn't get his way? Is uncomfortable with an independent free press, and independent juciciary? A bright future when we have no EPA to protect our water, our soil, and our air which is every citizen's birthright? when public education is gutted so only those who are financially fortunate can provide a solid education to their children? When ACA is gutted? I mean, I can go on and on.
OK, I get it. Conservatives have a fetishistic obsession with Hillary Clinton. But get over it! Look at what the administration is doing, right now, and how it is bad for ALL Americans, not just "liberals".

First, if Hillary would just go away, I would never think of her again. If only .......

The nuclear option - doesn't that refer to getting the new supreme court judge in because he has all of the qualifications and not kowtow to democrats who do not even show up for voting on a regular basis?

Independent free press or fake news. He is referring to the latter which I myself have seen plenty of just googling certain news outlets.

I am concerned with clean water, but some of these regulations imo go a bit too far.

And right now I am concerned about other things. I would like my daughters to be able to find jobs in our home state and not have to commute 1 1/2 each way like my son has to.

I am hopeful that the Feds will now start to raise interest rates, so that the money my husband and I worked for and saved for decades will start to finally work for us.

I worked in the school systems as a secretary to the principal. I have worked in both thriving and poor areas. I have seen parents at charter schools saying a prayer that their children will be picked in the lottery. I have seen high schoolers at the market who cannot give the exact change unless the register tells them what it is. One college in my home state has a 13th grade because so many are unprepared.

My home state was not listed in the worst 10 states for success, so I can just imagine how it is in those 10 states. I am all for parents having options.

I am hoping - still researching - that the Health Care bill will be an improvement over the disaster I am stuck with now.
