Abrams calls for removal of Confederate faces off Stone Mountain

[Sparko]

People can do something for a very long time and still not be very good at it. The "...And you kinda suck at it." would seem to put you in that category. But at times you do better than that.

So I tell you that you are no good at it and you say I am no good at it? the "I'm rubber you're glue" retort. sigh.

My basic point is that your personal attacks on my are rather low but when you concetrate on the actual points you usually do a lot better.

I am only doing it to imitate you, hoping you will "get the point" and stop being such a twit.

[Tassman]

In your world violence from those on the left is perfectly acceptable and praiseworthy. Not just sad but sick as well.

[Bill the Cat]

And we've said more than once, NO ONE made a moral equivalency . The word "EQUAL" was never uttered.

[Sparko]

really? provide links or it didn't happen.

[Jedidiah]

And you felt no need to mention any of that before you had to defend yourself?

He was supposed to defend himself against misinterpretations of liberals, before they even appeared? That is nuts.

ETA: Sparko beat me to it.

[Jedidiah]

If I recall correctly you have assiduously avoided that until now.

[Jedidiah]

And we've said more than once, NO ONE made a moral equivalency . The word "EQUAL" was never uttered.

I do, and have before, said the two sides are equally evil. They are morally equivalent.

ETA: Both sides push for an oppressive central government. On the right one that suppresses minority rights, on the left one that suppresses freedoms we take for granted (or used to).

[Tassman]

If I recall correctly you have assiduously avoided that until now.

Nonsense! You see what you want to see. In #443 What is being compared here are the neo-Fascists who were making violent, unconstitutional demands against Jews and blacks with those who oppose them. While the methods of the opposition may be questionable in some instances their goal is appropriate, whereas the goals of the KKK etc are not. Everybody, from political leaders on both sides to the heads of business and international leaders, seems to understand this...except the Evangelicals. Any disjoint here?

[Jedidiah]

Any disjoint here?

Oh yes. You fail to admit that what is often called the left in this violence are opposed to many of the freedoms Americans have historically enjoyed such as free speech. They are both evil and destructive of social cohesion.

[One Bad Pig]

I'm sorta impressed that you think this somehow equates to a firm denunciation of violence. It's the polar opposite of firm.

Everybody, from political leaders on both sides to the heads of business and international leaders, seems to understand this...except the Evangelicals. Any disjoint here?

Yes, your statement from reality.

[rogue06]

"may be questionable" is nowhere close to "any violence promoting those goals is not"

"may be questionable" appears no different than borderline acceptable.

[Mountain Man]

And it's only "questionable in some instances," meaning he has no problem with liberal violence in other instances.
