right now? it's been like that for a couple of decades now

It's picked up steam in the last couple of years with Feminism+ leading the charge.

Too bad the police didn't open fire on the retards.

But, but, that's racist! Those poor Mexicans are oppressed by whitey! That's why they would rather be here than Mexico! Wait...

We let these violent protests continue...why?

Because their hate is the "right" hate (eg, Liberal approved).

Everyone knows violence against those the intolerant left has deemed to not be aligned with their policies is justified. The violent intolerant left just can't control themselves, you see it over and over at rallies, protests etc. Anything in the name of leftist ideals is justified in their mind.

It's so easy to incite those with low IQ into violence.
 
Trumpers have been very clear in their message that they will not be stopping at illegal immigrants or simply enforcing our existing laws.

Someone here said it BRILLIANTLY a few days ago:

Some people want war with liberals (and Mexicans and etc.) and Trump is the one which makes them think he is giving them this war (however such a "war" will look like).

I mentioned already many times that of course racism doesn't work that way that it only focuses on "actual illegal immigrants". Racists don't make such distinctions.

And of course, yes this war/hate does of course include many more groups

Liberals and the establishment have been waging war for years. You don't adhere to their dogma, they sic the government on you or call you an *ist.

It is compliance at the end of a gun barrel.
 
Of course you have a link to a credible source to backup that statement.
As if it makes one shred of difference to someone like you.

Moveon.Org raising funds from Trump protests, warns more disruptions to come
By Kelly Riddell - The Washington Times - Sunday, March 13, 2016

Moveon.Org is conducting fundraising activities from the Chicago protests against Donald Trump that prompted the Republican presidential front-runner to cancel a rally there Friday, and promises that more disruptions are on the way.

“Last night, without consulting local police, Donald Trump abruptly cancelled a rally in Chicago in the face of massive and overwhelmingly peaceful student-led protests,” MoveOn.org wrote in an email Saturday to members. “We’re being flooded with aggressive emails and social media posts from Trump supporters. Some of them are threatening. We refuse to be intimidated by Donald Trump, Fox News, or anyone else.”

The email asked members to donate $3 to help the effort. The progressive group is funded by billionaire George Soros, and has endorsed Democratic candidate Vermont Sen. Bernard Sanders for president.

“We need to double down on our work, showing that America is better than Trump’s bullying, hate-baiting, and incitements to violence,” the email read. “We are committed to nonviolence, but we will not be silent. We will not be invisible.”

The group detailed its efforts in recent months, highlighting ads it has run against the real estate mogul and the advocacy its done on behalf of refugees, who it said are “under attack” from the GOP, and the support it gave to Trump protesters in Chicago.

“We’ve been ramping up our efforts for months — from the ‘We Are Better Than This’ ad we helped organize in The New York Times in December, to our collective advocacy for refugees under attack from the GOP, to the support we provided students in Chicago last night by printing signs and a banner and recruiting MoveOn.org members to join their peaceful protest. We need to double-down in the face of direct attacks on our community,” the email read.

And it pledged to continue its work.

“So here’s the plan: We’ll support MoveOn.org members to call out and nonviolently protest Trump’s racist, bigoted, misogynistic, xenophobic, and violent behavior — and show the world that America rejects Trump’s hate,” the email read. “And to keep it going, we’re counting on you to donate whatever you can to cover the costs of everything involved — the organizers, signs, online recruitment ads, training, and more.”
 
No, but I saw an old black lady wearing a trump hat get attacked and spit on.

I read somewhere that operatives of Trump pay people to infiltrate the anti trump folks and incite the violence so that they look like the victims causing more support for trump and of course more news coverage. ()🙂
 
You aint seen nuthin yet. Just wait till the welfare spigot gets turned off.

Why are you worried so much about those "welfare spigots", which is a joke anyway since the US is not a big welfare nation anyway?

Answer: You worry only because

a) you are either a low-wage earner and live in the delusion that "anyone else is after your money"...because if you had plenty of money you wouldn't worry about whoever is receiving welfare.

or
b) you're just hating and think it's fun if at some point "welfare spigots" are turned off, since the idea gives you some rather irrational joy, even if it doesn't affect you otherwise.

But here is the fun part of it: A potential Trump presidency would NOT just affect welfare recipients and liberals negatively 🙂

Since YOU vote for him (which I assume in the belief his presidency makes things better for YOU), it will be YOU who will be hit the most once you realize (if this ever happens) that the magic he is promising doesn't materialize.

The avg. Trump voter is poor, working class. They are voting for less wages "HEY WORK HARDER, DUDE!", less education, healthcare cuts etc....and it is those worker-class people who will be hit hardest by their own voting decision.

In other words: You laugh now...but wait who'll be laughing last. Your worries about welfare recipients and "shocked liberals" should be the last of your concerns. WE already can see what is gonna happen. You guys obviously don't. Worry about how it affects you rather than wasting your time gloating about any alleged misfortunes for others...

Or maybe this doesn't even matter to you, maybe you vote Trump BECAUSE and only because you want liberals "punished" but don't see that you're in the same boat like anyone else when shit comes down.

"Incite to riot" is horse-hockey. People are responsible for their own conduct and their own reactions to perceived provocations. People act violently because they want to.
I agree completely. Pokerguy asked for the logic and I simply pointed out that reaping what you sow is as old as the Bible.
 
In one word: bullshit.
What are these riots if not proof that if you don't conform to their dogma you'll get the "muscle" after you like mizzou.

What about what has happened to milo across the country, at DePaul and others?

What about the campuses that have held republican meetings only to be shut down back jack booted thugs?

You don't see conservatives playing that game.
 
Liberal logic:

Is Trump's plan is to expose and spread awareness of the stupidity and violent behavior of the protesting liberals and appeal to those who are disgusted by such behavior? Because it appears to be working and even those who aren't for Trump's politics are siding with him now due to the violent left.
