There's no problem with guns in the US. If he didn't have a gun handy he could just as easily have pointed a knife at her. A knife is good because it doesn't make any noise, and the less noise it makes the more likely you are to use it. Guns for show. Knives for a pro. -gr

Is there something we should know about you Soap? ;)

Note this is how the 'sensible' 'moderate' Lib Dems argue. Not impressive, is it?

Regardless of what else happens it makes me happy that the Lib Dems are gradually becoming politically extinct. You've been pointlessly cluttering up UK politics for decades (even longer if you count the equally pointless Liberals), with nothing whatsoever to show for it other than repeatedly acting as enablers for the neo-liberal right and as a direct consequence encouraging the racist far right. Then you blame everyone else for the consequences of your own politics!

You even choose leaders who are demonstrably more homophobic than the Tories (check Tim Farron's voting record on LGBT issues). But do go on patting yourself on the back for being the 'sensible moderate' ones as you slowly fade into oblivion.

He's showing himself to be a raving loon. I guess he thinks that the Jewish antifa folks will be starting the pogroms?

Yes, the extreme right wing is and so is the extreme left wing but you go ahead and ignore your side until they win and come for you. Both of those hate liberals and Jews so you're the first to go if either side gets a win.

Ok, you're really just going off the deep end.

Guess what you'd actually be one of the first to go due to your "intellectual" job. So, brilliant fucking logic there.

I mean, I'd point out how you're literally saying they're not on his side but he better watch his side and recognize that its every bit as bad. Because...fuck logic I guess?

Yes, the extreme left is as bad as the extreme right as far as ideology matters, both sides would have you killed.

This is Stalin vs Hitler, who killed most liberals and which one do you support and you are picking Stalin...

I'm picking neither and calling you a fucking moron. You can have your fucking pogroms and deal with that afterwards but don't come whining about getting EXACTLY what you asked for because I will not come to your aid.

That may be, but I don't see an equivalent movement to what we're seeing from far right groups today, or for the past 3 decades. Fact is the "far left" in the US these days are at most just socialists, calling for stuff like universal health care, and rights of LGBTQ persons.

Actually, er, weren't you arguing that Antifa isn't even leftist at all? So how can they be "extreme left"? You were arguing that they're straight up anarchists. Can you even keep your argument straight?

Yeah, get back to me when we have large groups of Communists marching in the streets yelling the type of shit we're seeing from right wing groups. I don't know if you really don't know how much far right sentiment was permeating in the US for decades or what, but you can fuck right off with telling us about fucking "extreme leftists" that are showing up only in response to literal wannabe Nazis brandishing weapons and chanting for death to various groups and openly spouting their hatred. Oh and killing people, because that's been happening with some regularity from the right (enough so that they try to prop up the exceptionally much more rare examples of leftists doing anything even remotely similar as bullshit false equivalency; in fact, exactly like you're doing, so good job on resembling the rhetoric of scummy right wing shitheads).

Get the fuck over yourself. Again, you not standing up will doom yourself too. In fact, you'll likely be one of the first killed by either side just due to your "intellectual" job, so real smart response there.

I'm sure this guy would fail any mental health screening if it were required before buying more guns, right? There's no way he's one of those responsible, NRA card-carrying gun owners. No chance of that whatsoever, he's probably one of those "bad guys" that gives "good guys" with guns a bad name. I'm sure he'll be disowned by the gun owning community right quick...

I know you're being facetious, but considering that the head NRA guy outright said in one of their keynote speeches:
"...We know, in the world that surrounds us, there are terrorists and home invaders and drug cartels and carjackers and knockout gamers and rapers [sic], haters, campus killers, airport killers, shopping mall killers, road-rage killers, and killers..."

So, haters as clearly this woman was, is entirely justifiable in using guns against. Also, I know way too many gun-nuts that would be openly cheering this guy and this type of action on. They'd even argue that, "see he didn't actually shoot her, he showed an incredible amount of restraint considering she tried to kill him by ramming him with her vehicle" type of shit.

Yes because someone wielding a knife while driving creates the same level of endangerment as a driver with a gun. Are fucking retarded?

Apparently trolling. Kudos to him for pulling the typical gun-nut response though "durr knives are just as dangerous, should we ban them too?"

No, you're dired down in made up bullshit that anything to the left is "liberalism" when in reality liberalism isn't a concept that you even understand.

Antifa is far left, Nazism is far right and in the end the authoritarian left and the fascist right is pretty much exactly the same. Anti fascist action with their tributes to murderers of policemen and imprisoned arsonists are no fans of liberalism.

They are not "socialists" at all, they are anarcho-communists and they hate liberalism. They are also universally condemned by every socialist movement like Occupy or BLM because their strategy isn't socialism in a liberal society, it's violent revolution. They are the remnants of groups like Baaden-Meinhof and unsurprisingly naive twits like yourself held those terrorist groups as models of a workers revolution back in the day.

Antifa doesn't give a fuck about LGBQT rights, about anyones rights what so ever, about the constitution, about equality or anything positive what so ever.

I've linked their various sites a thousand times by now but apparently people who read their own words, confirming what I've said still reject reality for their own delusions.

You morons would make great cult members.

I stand up for liberalism, all of you authoritarians and fascists can go fuck yourselves. We didn't go through all of this shit so that people like antifa, you and or the nazis could come and take it away from us.

Liberal leaning? lol if she leaned any farther left, she'd be either in the Old Soviet Union or on her head!

What would the liberals have said if the conservatives reacted to Obama like they reacted to Trump? I can hear the rhetoric now.

They did. It was called the birther movement. Of which the donald was a strong proponent. He had to formally state that obama was born in the US when he threw his hat in the ring for world's best president. Although calling it a movement might not really be accurate it was more of a fringe conspiracy theory and I am sure there are still plenty of conservatives who believe obama was not born in the US. Which they are of course entitled to do according to the first amendment. Amen.

EDIT: I have also seen hilarious footage of a John Mccain Q&A back when he was running for president. Where a conservative audience member referred to obama as an arab and Mccain corrected her.

It was gold.

I must have missed the rioting in the streets and all the violence it caused, maybe it was covered on another channel.

You don't point a gun at a target you don't intend to shoot. What a sad, dumb story. I hate how this stuff captures media attention, though. It normalizes the behavior even for me, as if it were perfectly reasonable that I could expect someone to point a gun at me over my bumper stickers. Although I probably wouldn't shoot the bird back at the guy either, particularly with my vehicle in motion.

It was a case of fighting stupidity with ignorance.

ah yes, because Obama was famous for empowering white supremacist Nazis just like Trump has. Here, you admit the fact of Trump encouraging Nazis to be loud and proud and outwardly violent...yet somehow seem bizarrely miffed that Obama's fans weren't as empowered by his presidency?

strange part of Russia you live in, comrade.

I am anti socialist, but so are the Russian immigrants I have met in America after they fled Russia, so I suppose I have commonalities with them. :)

no, they are anti-communist. not anti-socialist. It is typical that your small mind doesn't understand the difference.

There isn't a single Russian that you will meet that isn't rather collectivist at heart, and rather strongly socialist in nature. Russians tend to stick together and help each other out (socialism) far, far, more than the typical American; especially compared to the selfish, bed-wetting, self-fellaters in the Trump counties that couldn't tell the difference between a Patriot and a Nazi.
