I'm sorry, it's not like this guy came to the protest with the idea of exchanging ideas and participating in productive discourse. He showed up wearing 2020's version of a white hood.

So one guy wears a hat you don't like so it's OK for a GANG of people to attack him .
Yeah you are a real freedom lover...a real man .
Yeah ....a gang on ONE guy.
They were all so brave ....so enlightened.
Imagine if a gang of whites beat a solitary black guy for wearing the 'wrong ' hat .
You'd still be ok with that of course .
That's a really dangerous line of thinking.

If the police/secret service/military police/your grandmother cleared the way for Trump, I have no problem with that. To make a deal of out people doing their job and protecting POTUS, is pretty damn dimwitted.Booray said:Law enforcement in the video is clearly labeled as either "Military Police" or "Secret Service." So while the park police may not have known about it, that is irrelevant. They are not the ones who cleared the protestors.riflebear said:The police (who are under a radical Democrat) admitted they didn't know about it which even I find hard to believe they would allow Trump to walk over there w/out notice. This video also doesn't show the rioters throwing things at police. Brit is one of the more honest reporters left that calls out both sides so if he is wrong then I'm sure he will admit it.Booray said:Here is a video of it happening.riflebear said:
Imagine that - the press lied and pushed this agenda everyone on twitter got mad about.

We white people don't know how to solve racism and since reverse racism isn't a real thing, what we all should be doing is shutting up for once in our existence and stand by our black and brown brothers and sisters. Listen to them. Become educated.
I appreciate your viewpoint and I understand what you're saying. This particular incident isn't as cut and dry though, IMO. Let me clarify that a MAGA hat is much more than a hat. It is a symbol. It's a burning cross combined with a chain hanging off a truck hitch for a lot of people.

It is never acceptable to excuse, as you are doing, beating the crap out of a random guy for wearing a hat. It is dangerous to look at such violence and say, as you do, "who am I to judge?" It is the same dangerous and foolish line of thinking is seen in those who look at the video of George Floyd being murdered and say, "Who am I to judge? We don't know what cops go through on a daily basis."
Skin color doesn't matter, as it shouldn't. If everyone in this video were white, it would be wrong. If everyone were black it would be wrong.

You liberals ok with this - is this what you wanted? This man will probably be disabled for life assuming he's not dead. Imagine if the races had been reversed - somehow the media could care less about this.
So one guy wears a hat you don't like so it's OK for a GANG of people to attack him .
Yeah you are a real freedom lover...a real man .
Yeah ....a gang on ONE guy.
They were all so brave ....so enlightened.
Imagine if a gang of whites beat a solitary black guy for wearing the 'wrong ' hat .
You'd still be ok with that of course .
That's a really dangerous line of thinking.
We white people don't know how to solve racism and since reverse racism isn't a real thing, what we all should be doing is shutting up for once in our existence and stand by our black and brown brothers and sisters. Listen to them. Become educated.
Don't try to convince us of how "virtuous" you happen to be after showing us exactly what you are
As it tells me a lot about you as well.Friscobear said:He's free to show up anywhere he wants, wearing anything he wants. That doesn't give anyone the right to assault him. There are counter-protesters at any protest.rudylaw said:I appreciate your viewpoint and I understand what you're saying. This particular incident isn't as cut and dry though, IMO. Let me clarify that a MAGA hat is much more than a hat. It is a symbol. It's a burning cross combined with a chain hanging off a truck hitch for a lot of people. Do you at least agree with me that this guy didn't have good intentions by showing up to a BLM protest with a MAGA hat?D. C.

No. I'm also not black so it's silly for me to judge since I can't empathize with what our black and brown friends go through on a daily basis.HashTag said:Wow, you're a real special kind of piece of **** aren't you?rudylaw said:I'm sorry, it's not like this guy came to the protest with the idea of exchanging ideas and participating in productive discourse. He showed up wearing 2020's version of a white hood. He knew exactly what he was doing and he was called out on it.D. C.

It is never acceptable to excuse, as you are doing, beating the crap out of a random guy for wearing a hat. It is dangerous to look at such violence and say, as you do, "who am I to judge?" It is the same dangerous and foolish line of thinking is seen in those who look at the video of George Floyd being murdered and say, "Who am I to judge? We don't know what cops go through on a daily basis."
The fact that you view a MAGA hat as you do says a lot about you.
It's the girls fault that she got raped because she wore a mini skirt.rudylaw said:Great. Another guy with all the answers! If you can't see that the group was reacting to a symbol of hate, nothing else to talk about.HashTag said:There's no need for you to engage it. Supporting it is good enough.rudylaw said:Look, would I personally engage in something like this?
