VERIFIED LEFTIST CALLS FOR MAGA KIDS TO BE ‘FIRED ON’, SCHOOL BURNED DOWN
“I want you to fire on any of these red hat bitches when you see them. On sight.”

Verified leftist? How can you possibly take these [love] morons seriously???

Anyway, today it's musicians making threats. Easy enough. Here's Ted Nugent calling President Obama a piece of [poop] and saying that Obama should suck on his machine gun. Oh, and he's waving a rifle around while he says it. In front of a cheering crowd. Ted's still a FOX News contributor, by the way.

I'm surprised that you didn't post this as an example of dangerous extremism. It's almost as if you're a complete hypocrite.

There's no discussion here anymore. Especially when you can expect, like the sun rising, you will hear: "Oh, well look what irrelevant thing nobody cares about I just dug up!"

Just rename this section "Debate a constantly enraged contrarian on everything".

Hortense! Wow, it's been a while. Welcome back and thanks for unblocking me, apparently. I didn't know that you'd done that. Oh well, water under the bridge...

Here's the thing -

This thread exists so that Stu can point out examples of left-leaning individuals behaving badly and use those examples to tar everyone who favors liberal policies. That's apparently how Stu views the world. Liberals are all scumbags, and that "confirmed leftist's" Twitter feed proves it.

I'm not posting whataboutisms. My point with the Nugent clip, as with all of the other clips I posted in response, is that it's really, really easy to find examples of members of some group or other behaving abhorrently. If you take that metric and apply it objectively it'll take you about 15 minutes to determine that every group - veterans, children, cat enthusiasts, humans - is composed entirely of nasty, scumbag bastards.

The only way to make that methodology work for you is to apply it selectively, calling out people who are different from you and making excuses for your tribe. That's the approach that Stu has been taking, and that's what I've been calling him on. If he wants to stop beating that dead horse and have a conversation then I'm happy to engage, but so far he doesn't seem interested.

As far as debating an enraged contrarian, I'm not sure where you're getting that. I'm not enraged. At most I'm mildly irritated. And I'm not a contrarian. If I come across that way it's because I see many things very differently than you do. Am I supposed to pretend that I agree with everything that you say so as not to seem argumentative? If that's what you want then talk to your mirror. I'm here to challenge your assumptions, and to have mine challenged as well.

Maybe sometime, rather than getting pissed about my opinions being different from yours, you could ask me why I feel that way. It's not because I get off on disagreeing with some random guy on the Internet. I actually put thought into my views. I imagine that you put thought into yours as well, but I don't recall ever hearing you explain your rationale. Perhaps you should.

DERANGED LEFTIST PULLS GUN ON TRUMP SUPPORTER FOR WEARING MAGA HAT

A deranged leftist pulled a gun on a Trump supporter and told him “it’s a good day for you to die” simply because the man was wearing a MAGA hat.

The incident occurred at a Sam’s Club in Bowling Green, Kentucky on Saturday.

Alleged victim Terry Pierce told police that the suspect, James Phillips, flipped off him and his wife because of their hats before brandishing a .40 caliber, shoving it in Pierce’s face and telling him, “It’s a good day for you to die.”

WATCH: UCLA STUDENTS SUPPORT CONCENTRATION CAMPS FOR TRUMP SUPPORTERS

Leftists want to employ actual fascism against conservatives

Kaitlin Bennett went undercover at UCLA as Jenna Talia to ask students to sign a petition to throw conservatives into involuntary re-education camps.

Not only were the students she approached ecstatic to sign it, but one member of UCLA’s student government encouraged her to change the language to “diversity” and “sensitivity training” to hide their real intentions so the administration would approve it.

Not bad I guess. I used to be very much an optimist when it came to SA but that has changed quite a bit. This country is on a downward path.

Our electricity supplier is in pretty bad shape and we have blackouts every now and then. Corruption is rife and we have several commissions on at the moment dealing with that issue. Eye opening stuff.

I had high hopes for our new president but I'm on the fence at the moment.

The biggest issue is land grabs. The government has decided to implement land expropriation WITHOUT compensation. Before they used to pay for the land, now they plan on just taking it, otherwise known as stealing.

But I was born here and don't plan on leaving even though I have family in Holland and Britain and could potentially move there.

Reason I'm so interested in the USA is because I believe it will play a big part in the end times, and that she is Mystery Babylon.

I heard about the whole land grab thing over there. It looks like your govt has taken reparations to a whole new level.

Do you think that if I put on blackface and moved to South Africa, I could get some free land?

Left-wing cities going LAWLESS as Boston orders police to stop arresting criminals for breaking and entering, destruction of property or shoplifting

Leftist policies are reaching new levels of insanity in Massachusetts, as Suffolk County DA Rachael Rollins pushes her highly contested “no-prosecute” list into action. The “list” gives a green light to a number of arrest-worthy offenses — including trespassing, shoplifting, disorderly conduct, and “wanton or malicious destruction of property.” In other words, local law enforcement is being directed by the district attorney to stand idly by while miscreants steal and destroy property. The directive from Rollins also orders police to refuse to cooperate with ICE in the arresting of illegal immigrants at the courthouse — no matter the severity of their crimes. What could go wrong?

It is no surprise this new “policy,” also known as the “Rollins Memo” has been met with substantial scrutiny. While Rollins may say her memo is about creating an “equal” justice system, the victims of these now-permissible crimes aren’t likely to feel they are being treated equally. But of course, that’s really the goal here, isn’t it? No one cares about the shopkeepers and homeowners that are victimized. Under far-left dogma, criminals are the true victims, we’re just too “hateful” to see it. This is doublethink at its finest.

As Gateway Pundit contends, the Rollins Memo serves to hamper law enforcement and aid criminals. In addition to issuing the controversial “no-prosecute” list, the memo orders local law enforcement to refuse working with ICE on the arrest of illegal immigrants — and it also compels judges to issue lighter sentences for illegal aliens so they don’t get deported.

CHARGES TO BE DECLINED
Charges for which the Default is to Decline Prosecuting (unless supervisor permission is obtained).

Trespassing
Shoplifting (including offenses that are essentially shoplifting but charged as larceny)
Larceny under $250
Disorderly conduct
Disturbing the peace
Receiving stolen property
Minor driving offenses, including operating with a suspended or revoked license
Breaking and entering — where it is into a vacant property or where it is for the purpose of sleeping or seeking refuge from the cold and there is no actual damage to property
Wanton or malicious destruction of property
Threats – excluding domestic violence
Minor in possession of alcohol
Drug possession
Drug possession with intent to distribute
A stand alone resisting arrest charge, i.e. cases where a person is charged with resisting arrest and that is the only charge
A resisting arrest charge combined with only charges that all fall under the list of charges to decline to prosecute, e.g. resisting arrest charge combined only with a trespassing charge

Instead of prosecuting, these cases should be (1) outright dismissed prior to arraignment or (2) where appropriate, diverted and treated as a civil infraction for which community service is satisfactory, restitution is satisfactory or engagement with appropriate community-based no-cost programming, job training or schooling is satisfactory. In the exceptional circumstances where prosecution of one of these charges is warranted, the line DA must first seek permission from his or her supervisor. If necessary, arraignment will be continued to allow for consultation with supervisor. Thus, there will be an avenue for prosecuting these misdemeanors when necessary but it will be appropriately overseen by experienced prosecutors.

Golly, Stu, that sounds serious! I sure hope it's not true! Say, maybe you should do 5 minutes of research and find out!

Here, I'll get you started.

Did you notice how your source said that police would just stand around and watch while miscreants went on a crime wave? Yet the actual policy (which didn't even mention the police) said that prosecutors would be given the latitude to either 1) dismiss the case before arraignment, 2) treat it as a civil infraction and resolve it thusly, or 3) prosecute the perpetrator.

Huh.

Vickie Batts at NaturalNews.com isn't describing the policy honestly. In fact, she's straight up lying to you. What are you going to do about that, Stu? How will you respond to the objective fact that Vickie Batts isn't telling you the truth, and to the implication that she has no respect for you and just assumes that you'll uncritically swallow whatever [nonsense] she feeds you? Are you gonna take that lying down?

Personally, I think you should spend 5 minutes looking for more information about the policy. You'll almost definitely still disagree, and frankly I'm on the fence about some of it, but at least your understanding of the matter will be deeper than "OMG dum libtards is dum!"
