Do good, decent people use violence if they aren't winning within the rules? Ask Antifa and BLM 1

Absolutely, it would be nice if your side actually called them out on it. So you're admitting antifa and blm are a real threat to this country?

If they try to eliminate violent members that mitigates it some. If they don't, they are enemies of society and of good, decent people who play by the rules. Edited June 12, 2023 by redtail hawk 1

We need to stop thinking about which side we're on and start thinking about being Americans. We should expect and demand more from our politicians we elected to serve there country, not there bank accounts. Both sides are dirty as hell. Arguing over which one is worse is just plain stupid. There is too much blood on the hands of both parties. They've outlived their usefulness. Time to tear down the current political parties and go back to what this country was founded on and stands for. Enough fighting, time to take back our government.

It makes part of who we are but I do not apologize or pay reparations to you or anyone for something I did not do or now support. My ancestors were murder by the Iroquois, do they owe me? Rosa Parks is an important event that changed us for the better, but it does not make anyone superior. I vote on today's issues, not last century. We are who we are because of the past but we are not responsible nor can we take credit for it. 1 person attending college was then important be not relevant today. Trump is the biggest liar, manipulative a?? I have seen in American public life. But he has beaten you by making you obsessive. No one is asking you to do any of that, just seems odd you melted down over the post

Do good, decent people use violence if they aren't winning within the rules? Do I agree with Jan 6 people or trump on storming capital or falsified elections, no Do I think there is a double standard when it comes to how the DoJ prosecutes offenders based on political alignment- 100% White supremacist groups? Just like this board and it’s cults, I suspect there are a handful of legitimately coercive manipulators in control that latch on to the minds of some feeble sheep just looking for someone to tell them what to think. And all the racially charged left railing about how bad white males are plays right into their hands. And by fighting back, for example I’m seeing our PTA ramp up a very factual communication campaign addressing concerns that a new administration focused on CRT over academics has triggered mass resignations in our excellent elementary school. And my community is extremely diverse but value education and are very engaged with staff. There is a lot of passion about this.

You accuse me of being a trumper! It is never surprising you melt down over trump almost daily. I get sick of the extreme left like you accusing me of wrong doing. Not everyone in North America supported slavery, in fact 1/2 of the US went to war to stop it and 10s of thousands lost their lives doing so. Never heard BLM say thanks. One bad cop kills a black man with his knee and every other cop is a racist. Of course 1 gang banger shoots a 4 yr old and every other gang banger is just misunderstood, according to the left. I am as middle ground as anyone on the board. San Francisco of the 60s I loved, San Francisco of the 2020s I hate. I loved NYC in the 1990s, NYC now, disgusting, who created these problems. Extreme liberalism is not 1 ounce better than extreme right positions. 1 1 1

And my community is extremely diverse but value education and are very engaged with staff. There is a lot of passion about this. much to unpack...for the first line, I'm relieved. There are those here that disagree. There are many nationally that disagree, unfortunately. And their reasoning seems to be the same as your original post: tired of being marginalized. I get it and agree violence is counterproductive. Handful of manipulators? Agreed. Except they are especially proficient and immoral at this time...eg trump. He's an absolute master at it. I'll wait for the what about Biden reply but he's just not the conman and manipulator trump is. at any rate, it's sad to witness such a huge swath of American society that is so susceptible to this crap. very worrisome for the future. Finally, there are several members of my family who are teachers and I know many in the community. I don't hear them complain about CRT. I hear them complain about poor pay, lack of respect, overbearing parents and constant criticism. Edited June 12, 2023 by redtail hawk 1

It not an everywhere problem, but it’s now a my elementary school problem. My wife is in education consulting and deep into the administration of several of the Dc Maryland and Virginia districts. my neighbor works in the county administration office, my son best friend’s parents I spend every weekend in the bleachers with are middle school teachers and team leaders both. Our schools is 60% Asian so this isn’t some right conspiracy. And 20%+ of the staff is leaving at the end of this school year because the new principal is pushing equity and anti racism, and alternative sociology over academics. this is coming from the departing staff directly to the parents. The prior principal didn’t and was also data driven, academically focussed and excellent, and paid less mind to the political agenda up the chain. these are the most conscientious and involved partners I’ve ever seen, and it’s a fact great teachers are leaving and curriculum is deteriorating. For some they are appalled they left communist China for this American dream? It’s real and it’s just a stupid political movement of morons, the morons who believe it and the sycophants who are gaslit into believing it’s not real. 4 minutes ago, SoCal Deek said: Thanks….
