Well, they were outside of his house, so I guess they do know where he sleeps?

I don't get the purpose of this thread.

You wouldn't. For you and your ilk, it's part of the resistance. Harassing and ridiculing people to you is like breathing for other people.

Wrong thing to do, no matter how hateful the man is. Silent protest with non-threatening signs would be ok.

You mean like how your ilk must approve of right wing extremist groups harassing liberals across the country? Like when Patriot Prayer stormed a restaurant in Seattle the other day and began harassing the owner and the guests for being liberals? And then left negative reviews on Yelp after the police forced them to leave? Just like breathing for you, right?

Wait, you don't agree with that? You think it's stupid to be accused of being complicit in antisocial acts just because some random stranger on the internet assumes some kind of political connection between you and the perpetrators?
Great. So now you know just how stupid you and Slow look here when you do exactly that here almost every single day.

This is wrong, simply wrong.

Fine to make their life uncomfortable since they are “stars” not fine to have thinly veiled threats or disturb the neighbors. Holding a sign outside is exempt provided the sign isn’t a clear threat.

OP I’ll assume you’ll say the same or similar if Anderson Coopers or similar reporters place gets targeted right?

They WERE targeted..

By the MAGA bomber. His signs go boom.

Oh dear, harassing people is so awful. I guess we should go the righty route and just shoot them up or run them over with our cars. Tired of these pussy snowflakes that I hang out with! :(

Yes. I don't think angry mobs should make threats outside of Anderson Coopers house, you got it.

Completely wrong at this time. Now listen, when Tucker puts on one of the many finely pressed Brown Shirts that he has hanging in his closet, then go for it.

So what is the cause? Having an opinion that the left doesn't agree with?

Being intolerant towards other people first. I would be like if i hypothetically walked up to you and said "i hate you and think you should live in a box" (i might actually think this :p ). You have ever right to tell me to F Off for being being intolerant towards you. But i'm the one in the wrong technically because i started it, your response is just a reaction towards what i sowed.

Can you show me where Tucker Carlson has walked up to someone and told them that he hates them and thinks they should live in a box? Being for secure borders is not hate. Wanting to vet whom we allow into the country is not hate. Wanting people that will contribute parts of their culture vs. be societal parasites is not hate. But the racists on the left will create racist hate as needed to fit their narrative, it is the go-to move for the Democrats for probably at least the last decade.

I disagree with the arguement you’re even trying to make in the first place but "intolerance" and a direct threat are two very different things. Standing outside someone’s house saying "we know where you live" can only be taken as a direct threat.

To paraphrase Slow......when did they threaten him or his family? Please link to the actual threats, because if no actual direct threats were made, then no threats were made, period.

Sound sorta familiar?

Maybe my arguement wasnt the best to describe it, but the rest still stands. A good analogy might be if you picked a fight with someone, but ended up getting your ass kicked because he fought back. Cant blame someone for defending themselves. Thus you cant blame someone for not tolerating intolerance.

I am not sure you understand the definition of the words you used in the above.

I'm very sure I do but thank you for being oblivious as always. As I've said before if I wanted to make a fake account to make conservatives look stupid my sock puppet would be basically indistinguishable from you.

They threatened him by showing up at his home saying we know where you live. That is a threat. Any judge / jury would perceive of it as a threat. Defend it all you like baw

I don't think he's actually defending it, he's showing why people pretending to not understand the obvious context of racist remarks is ridiculous.

We all know the context here and I doubt anyone would seriously deny it. Sadly when it comes to racism people do that all the time.
