@robreiner
The racist massacre in Buffalo rest at the feet of Donald Trump, Tucker Carlson, and the GOP. There are not fine people on both sides.

(2,937 posts)has any concept of responsibility for it. I think trump is quietly proud of the shooter and Carlson feels the same--this is what they want. As for the GOP in general, they will just turn the other way.

(90,067 posts)Any proof can be seen in the coverage of this weekends Roe rallies.
Granted, I can only speak about the rally in downtown Portland (Oregon). Went with some Indivisible friends. The park was PACKED with people - every last one of em completely peaceful. LOTS of great protest signs!
But thats how OUR side of the aisle behaves. The nogoodniks and violent people and destructive people are on the OTHER side (and WERENT there!).
How peaceful were we? Spotted one or two police cars driving by, taking a look, and then continuing down the road. We posed no trouble or threat of violence and/or misbehavior. Small park area. Packed, with more people spilling over across the street. So many people you couldnt see to the end.
