Ok when the right, the real perpetrator of violence,

are trying to paint the left as the violent ones our clueless out of touch leaders feed the machine by advocating uncivil, take em out back mentality and now all over the news is discussions about this.

I blame the media for pointing out these statements and not discuss all the real violent crimes coming from the alt right.

Our leaders are not seeing the effort on Fox etc to paint the left as violent. They are incessantly showing images of Antifa harassing people.

THIS IS HOW THEY WILL JUSTIFY PUTTING DOWN OR KILLING PROTESTERS!

I’m pissed about the dumb remarks from Hillary, Biden etc. clueless

And even then, he was attacked for causing violence. He knew the power of non-violence as only a few others in history have. But it did not stop the other side from using violence against him.

keep playing; kick them, don’t be civil etc. it has been nonstops all day. I’m annoyed that so many Americans still support Trump and I’m especially annoyed by some of my own family members who think we are the violent ones. The media, the dark money, the billions spent on our elections it’s all insane and so scary!

Power gives up nothing without a fight. I fear it’s going to get ugly.
