How about a war of aggression and occupation. Would the Ukranians have the right to fight back against Russian incursions?

Good to know who your heroes are.
(It does appear, to be fair, that some of those who were also protesting weren't very happy with the guy doing the punching, and somebody even grabs his hat as the guy tries to run away. Also, the person doing the punching appears to be a white dude!)The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

that makes him deserving of a punch in the face
and that all he's ever done in his life is this one time he stood there peacefully talking this one time.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

so starlight, how much violence are you willing to "enjoy" in "internal politics"
you already said civil war was ok, and even stabbing someone. how about when Lincoln was assassinated? was that OK? what if someone attacks Trump physically? punches him in the face? or assassinates him? all good fun?

Originally posted by Cow Poke View PostYeah, I saw that - the reporter was frantically reporting that the cops were pushing them back, but the reporters kept trying to get a shot of the idiot in the street with the sign -- if they would have just ignored him...
I wish I could find online the photo they took to compare their spin with the reality of that photo.
