    I was at my local bar the other night and a guy I know who's a huge leftist, he picked a fight with a guy for no reason. He said the guy flicked a cigarette in his face and asked what should have he had done. I'm not a bible thumping Cristian, but I told him, "do what Jesus would have done and turn the other cheek." That's what these people should do, walk the fuck away, but they can't because they have so much hate inside them. The left has gotten out of hand and we are going to continue to see increasing violence from them.

    When "the left", spends 50 goddamned years stockpiling weapons, sucking the 2nd amendment like a dick in a glory hole, making paranoid conspiracy theories to justify the weapons stockpiling, doomsday prepping, licking the assholes of doomsday preachers, casually tossing around assassination jokes, and coating their pickup trucks with bumper stickers with crazy violent slogans, and being the side 98% of all domestic terrorism comes from, THEN you get to think they're the "scary violent side we should all be afraid of".

    Anecdotal cases of isolated assholes ain't gonna cut the mustard.

    It just shows an example of how leftists think. You see most Christian conservatives, you know, the people you hate, are taught to turn the other cheek. Leftists just go around punching people they don't agree with and this thread suggests that many here are totally okay with that.

    Using individuals to condemn a whole group?

    "Violent leftists on a rampage!" is the new "Obama's gonna take your guns!" The NRA had to change up their sales pitch when Clinton unexpectedly lost.

    That stupid fuck is just a stupid fuck who has no power over anything and there will never be any ethnic cleansing because of him, as you well know.

    Nice attempt to distract from your endorsement of political violence though. Hopefully, this won't result in more street fighting but I suspect ultimately it will as the taboo against political violence breaks down. If/when that does happen I hope you will remember that you cheered it on.

    Your buddies aren't getting beat up due to their stance on trade policy, taxation, infrastructure, entitlements, healthcare etc. Aka politics. They are getting roughed up due to their stance on ethnic cleaning. A stance you are trying to legitimatize by calling it just politics. As I said, not surprising.

    "My buddies"? Just go fuck yourself, you idiot.

    Someone can indeed oppose political violence without endorsing Nazis. Thank you for admitting that you have nothing and have lost yet another debate. That you cheer and encourage violence for political purposes has been noted.

    Except absolutely no one has said anything remotely like that. That you have to lie is a clear indication you know you have lost based upon the facts.

    I have four brief points:

    1) A single Nazi is not a threat sufficient to justify these punches, unless he is actually acting violently or issuing threats.
    2) Instead, we should call out such dumbasses in publicly humiliating ways--but never violence.
    3) Anyone who thinks ethnic cleansing is "just politics" is probably a Nazi.
    4) @Dinner is probably a Nazi.

    1a) Punch, not punches. Bitch had a glass chin, dropped like a sack of shit with one punch.

    1b & 2) Public Nazism is in and of itself a threat. By treating ethnic cleansing as any other political speech legitimatizes it. It isn't to be protected, it is to be stomped out.

    3) Agreed.

    4) Probably?!?

    http://www.seattletimes.com/seattle...ideo-of-man-wearing-swastika-getting-punched/

    More details.

    Police said they they received several reports Sunday of a man wearing a swastika instigating fights at Third Avenue and Pine Street. Police said they were on the scene within five minutes and found the man — with a Nazi flag armband — on the ground.

    [He] left after removing his armband,” Seattle police said in a tweet about the incident on Monday.

    ....
    Seattle police said there is not an investigation underway because no one reported a crime.

    I love a happy ending! :wub:

    You know I've been to my several local bars thousands of times and I've never walked in to one and said "oh, there's the leftist" or "oh there's that conservative".

    That's lame as fuck if you do that

    So if some guy weighing 250 pounds and has forty professional MMA fights worth of experience doesn't like your political views and drops you like a sack of shit would you be cool with that? Just askin'

    So if your political view is Nazism and you genuinely believe that the Jews should go back to the ovens you don't think that ceases to be a political view?

    Ethnic cleansing isn't a political view.

    If I ever support ethnic cleansing, I HOPE someone beats some sense into me and you should too!

    Sorry this being a free country I don't think I have the authority to pick & choose what beliefs I can physically assault people for believing in unless they are acting on their beliefs. But that's just me.

    Is it really that complicated? Seriously, are you in any way confused over whether or not ethnic cleansing is an objectively evil act beyond mere politics?

    That is of course the only conclusion to draw from seeing Nazis march down American streets under the sign of the swastika.

    I was in Bosnia - I'm well aware of the evils of ethnic cleansing. The Srebenica massacre pretty much sets a solid watermark for that. Thus I honestly have a hard time believing that you will run across an act of ethnic cleansing in Seattle. If you see one taking place, by all means intervene. Granted I've only visited, you live there. Maybe it's a wilder place than I thought.

    Ah, so it's not the ethnic cleansing that has you confused, but Nazis.

    Okay, quick and dirty: Nazism is an ideology rooted in ethnic cleansing. Those advocating for Nazism are advocating for ethnic cleansing and taking the first steps to making it happen.

    Got it. So we (as a nation) are currently at war with Nazis and thus you as a civilian are authorized to physically attack on sight said Nazis? Your state has some weird laws - maybe it's a liberal thing.
