    I agree, think we must be talking past each other as I can't believe I've read some of the stuff you've posted on this subject recently.

    And there's the thing AAA. Tony Stark didn't say sure that's stupid but "there are two sides" or the American right acts just as badly, so giving the inferrable justification for ESPN to be so fucking stupid.

    When white supremacist hate groups are present, anyone , and especially a President, should first be doing exactly the same as Tony has done only infinitely more so. Condemning everything those white supremacist do and stand for, unconditionally without any comparisons.

    You wouldn't know a moral if it bit you on the face and chewed off your nose.

    But keep spewing your insanity because it's driving your party into the sewer where it rightfully belongs.

    The majority of the people in this country see you people for exactly what you are, despite 24/7 propaganda media outlets echoing your liberal bullshit and convincing you that everyone's on your side.

  5. This sounds reasonable but your side considers anyone to the right of Maxine Waters to be white supremacist hate groups.

    To be honest, I consider the Marxist antifa punks far more dangerous and morally reprehensible than even the KKK/neo Nazi fringe. The reason is the latter have no power, no following and frankly probably have as many undercover FBI agents as members as true believers. The former however are truly dangerous, as dem pols are increasingly allying with them. Giving them the sort of moral legitimacy you and Mitt Romney are doing is an important step. The goal is to have Hugo Chavez-type mobs who can be turned out to burn down annoying TV stations or newspapers, etc. So far only the silicon valley monopolists are fulfilling that function.

    We hear it time and again from people in gov't.

    'there's no room in America for this'
    'we need to stamp this out'


    What are they referring to?

    -They're referring to people having beliefs that they don't agree with.
    -They are pointedly not referring to the violent squelching of constitutionally guarateed rights.


    That tells you EVERY freaking thing you need to know about these moral hucksters.

    And it isn't going to end the way these stooges envision.

  7. Bill de Blasio Orders Review of All NYC Monuments; Considering Removal of Christopher Columbus

    New York City’s left-wing mayor Bill de Blasio has confirmed he will consider a proposal to remove a statue of the explorer Christopher Columbus and has ordered a review of all the city’s statues and monuments following violent clashes between white nationalists and Antifa in Charlottesville last weekend.
    His consideration follows a rally held by City Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito and other elected Democrats calling for the removal of a statue of 19th Century doctor J. Marion Sims from Central Park. Sims is known to have experimented on African slaves.

    Sims, dubbed the “father of modern gynecology,” experimented on unconsenting African slaves as part of his research.

    During the rally, Mark-Viverito also suggested that removing the statue of the legendary explorer Columbus needed to be “looked at” due to his being a “controversial figure.”

    “I think that that has to be looked at and we have to look at history,” she said during the rally. “We have to look at it thoroughly. He is a controversial figure and I know that some may take offense to that, but for many of us that come from the Caribbean islands, we see him as a controversial figure.”

    In the wake of a widespread attempt by left-wing activists to remove statues of historical figures all across America, de Blasio has ordered a 90-day review of all New York’s statues and monuments and their historical links and will analyze each one on a case by case basis.

    “The Columbus statue is obviously one that will get very immediate attention because there’s been tremendous concern raised about it,” Ben Sarle, a mayoral spokesman, told the Observer in an emailed statement. “When the guidelines/criteria for review are set by the commission, we will make sure they are available to the public.”

    In a letter to de Blasio, Staten Island Councilman Joe Borelli (R) urged the mayor to present a “clear and concise document” on what criteria must be fulfilled for statues to be removed.

    “Although your intentions may be well placed, I fear that an examination into these particular statues, as well as the many others the city hopes to ‘review,’ will present complex and cloudy historical interpretations that will only serve to deepen gaps between people of New York with different backgrounds and historical worldviews,” he wrote. “I will also bluntly remind you that it will not change the history of those they commemorate, controversial or otherwise.”

  9. As the purity test broadens it's scope few will make the cut in the end. People think I'm joking when comparing radical leftist ideology to North Korea. I assure you I'm not. These people want complete and total control of our every thought, every movement we make, every word we speak.

  10. But words can be so hurtful. Also facts.
