Just wondering. They might even be fringe radicals?


The riots are led by whack jobs that are in the same category as the so-called Trump Nazi's.

But Trump and his supporters denounce the nazis, while the majority of liberal America has been making excuses for the protests-turned-riots.

Md. Students Walk Out Of School To Protest President-Elect Trump
November 14, 2016 11:20 AM

BALTIMORE (WJZ) — Students at Montgomery Blair High School in Silver Spring walked out of classes Monday morning to protest president-elect Donald Trump, they told WUSA 9.

The students were shutting down a portion of University Boulevard.

Montgomery County Police say it’s possible students from other schools nearby will join the protest, as well.

Police say the group is headed toward Westfield Wheaton Mall on Veirs Mill Road.

This is a developing story.

Similarly, the Nazis were silent during Kristallnacht.
That event took place on November 9 and 10 way back then.

hmmmm......

not sure how you know the majority of liberal America, which is also the majority of voters, are making excuses.

The online vitriol directed at President-elect Donald Trump is getting worse, and critics say social media companies should do more to rein it in.

Since Trump's stunning Election Day victory last week, social media hashtags like #AssassinateTrump and #Killtrump have proliferated. Over the weekend, a protester near Trump Tower held aloft a sign calling for future first lady Melania Trump to be violated, echoing a trending hashtag #RapeMelania.

“This is another example of social media platforms being used to radicalize people,” said Eric Feinberg, of GIPEC, a software company that monitors illegal activity and terror-related social media accounts told FoxNews.com. “Terror groups such as ISIS have long utilized this strategy to recruit and radicalize.

“Now anti-Trump anti-government groups are using the same tactic to recruit, radicalize and compensate to cause civil disobedience and unrest in our cities while overburdening the workload of law enforcement in these cities," he added.

Hastags like #KillTrump and #RapeMelania have surfaced on social media since Tuesday.
Within the social media realm—particularly on Twitter—dozens of calls to kill Trump have been circulating, with some even calling for both Trump and Vice President-elect Mike Pence to be assassinated by their Jan. 20 inauguration.

Those who support Trump took to Twitter as well, mostly to voice anger over the social media platform's perceived hypocrisy. They noted hashtag #HillaryForPrison was blocked during the campaign, while #AssassinateTrump was not.

“So it’s ok to trend #AssassinateTrump, but anti-Hillary hashtags were removed immediately,” reads one tweet from @TrumpTrain09.

“Twitter censors pro-Trump trends but allows garbage like "Rape Melania," #AssassinateTrump, #NotMyPresident, etc., to trend,” reads another tweet from @DukeNukemSez.

Let me rephrase.

"the majority of liberal voters whom I poked fun at" are making excuses.

And it's not a characterization when it's been nearly 100%.

And besides. You're not in the "majority of liberals" generalization.

So you're saying that the losing liberals haven't over reacted (x 1000) ?

That nationwide riots show patriotism?

That university flags flying half mast don't indicate a problem with how liberal our colleges have become?

That delayed mid terms and approved walk outs aren't coddling our next generation just a wee bit?


I've seen good, smart people that I love lash out at people who voted for Trump.
That isn't normal. But it isn't uncommon.
And it's ALL media driven.

Trump isn't the candidate they wanted. But he's not the candidate they fear, either.
And it's disingenuous to perpetuate the mantra that this is just a normal back lash.

8 years ago we yelled from the tree tops that Obama was unfit.
And we were called racist even when we didn't mention race.

Could ANYONE here imagine if we held protests and burned American flags back then?


We need to let these emotions calm down so we can have a normal political argument.
Without the media fed lemmings leading the charge.

My point is that when you post some article trying to make a point about liberals using a #killtrump hashtag you should check if a #killhillary hashtag exists too... because it doesn't really make much of a point otherwise

President Barack Obama proved just how much he cared about the state of the nation and the protests erupting over last week’s presidential election by doing something that has become a signature of his administration.

He played golf.

That’s right. Instead of attempting to address the thousands protesters and encourage them to be peaceful and act like grown-ups, he decided to ignore what was happening and essentially bury his head in the sand.

According to CBS News White House correspondent, Mark Knoller, Obama arrived was already golfing Saturday just before noon.

How comforting for those who were attacked.

Obama had so much fun not worrying about the protests, he returned to the course on Sunday.

Obama has yet to issue a statement on the riots, in which “peaceful” protesters have called for the assassination of Trump. Some protesters have even held up signs that say “Rape Melania.” Neither Obama, the Democrats nor the mainstream media have called out these individuals for being childish and unreasonable because they lost an election. Instead, they choose to focus on hate.

The sad thing is, we don’t expect Obama to make a statement, primarily because of his track record. He has a habit of heading to the golf course instead of heading to the Situation Room when a crisis occurs. This pastime has earned him the reputation of being somewhat of a joke.

These protests show the world just how tolerant the left is — they may espouse all kinds of ideas about being the party that is open-minded and fair, but in reality, it appears they can’t live up to their words. They’re all about peace and tolerance when they’re the party in charge. Once they lose power, they become a bunch of crybabies that feel they deserve the right to protest and burn down businesses because of their so-called righteous indignation.

The Trump haters are taking to the streets.
I think the #killbitch was just one aspect of the outrage.
But you came riding in like a knight in shining armor.

Other than that, you're correct.

I don't think I said that the liberals are OK with the property damage. Just that the "protesters" are damaging property and the libs are OK with the protest itself. (ps: just don't ask what they're protesting. It confuses them.)

Now, you claim that your liberal acquaintances are actually against the protests???
Forgive me, but I find that difficult to believe.

And let me be clear.
The protests (called a "rally" from the left, and "riot" from the right) have actually been advertised on the major Boston networks.
Last Wednesday, each of the big 3 advertised the rally/protest (it was not a riot) in Boston for that evening at 7pm.

This was the day of the election results. That means almost zero planning but the networks were on board 100%.

I don't recall such network assistance for any tea party rallies.

But there's nothing to see here. Nope.

What you're saying is that media is biased (other than FOX ?) and it's ALL the liberals fault or the left . Of course the media 8s biased and it seems to me it's has more left leaning coverage than leaning toward the right .

Why do you have to make sweeping generalizations? You're honestly starting to sound like tonygraz . Except you don't lie like he does ( a .223 thru 6" of steel ) and you're on the right . That would make you 2 mirror images . Lol I know I wouldn't want to be a mirror image of him . I'm not trying to hurt your feeling I just want you to think about that .

Now don't try to compare me to anyone I know mine is Mr Jones but he's sane and I'm not particularly.

You're right it is something to see . Maybe more people will vote and the people can take our government back . Not from the left or the right but from the politicians and special interest.

My reading comprehension sucks and my attention span is about 2 1/2 seconds...so, maybe I misunderstood what I took to be the point of much of this thread.

I didn't read this to be a thread asking to "Stop voicing support for rioters!" The question is why aren't the nation's left leaders actively voicing disapproval of the protests that have gone 'too far'?

Even Trump has asked his supporters to not act on hate; not engage in bigoted attacks, etc.

I'm not sure silence always implies that leaders condone actions, but it sure can be interpreted that way by followers...(and antagonists.)


Not entirely different than my frustration with non-violent Muslims who seem so incredibly reluctant to condemn Muslim extremists.....Why?

I think generalizations, by their very nature, are sweeping.

And I like to think of myself as the smart man's, conservative, well endowed and much better looking version of tonygraz.
