Instead, they unnecessarily stoke anger and division at a volatile time, with the rally locations attracting the violence-prone on all sides of the political spectrum.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Well, no. \u00a0For the past year and a half, they have drawn unstable, violence-prone, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.shotinthedark.info\/wp\/?p=63101\">Urban-Progressive-Privilege<\/a>-sotted &#8220;Anti&#8221;-Fa blackshirts. \u00a0Lately, to be sure, they&#8217;ve drawn people on the other side who&#8217;ve come to aggressively defend themselves. \u00a0What, you expect people to stand still while they&#8217;re being gassed and clubbed for exercising their rights?<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"Text_Edit\">Clashes between white supremacists and counterprotesters have already left one woman dead. It is only by the grace of God that more people didn\u2019t die in Charlottesville. Or that violence didn\u2019t spiral out of control during another gathering last Saturday in Boston.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Excluse my middle English, but bullshit. \u00a0<em>All\u00a0<\/em>the violence in Boston was on the left. \u00a0 Thousands of drooling scumbags descended on an expressly peaceful event that\u00a0<em>specifically excluded and condemed &#8220;white supremacists&#8221;. \u00a0<\/em>Boston was a monument to the spoiled entitlement of Big Left and its idiot children &#8211; which is why it&#8217;s disappeared from the media.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"Text_Edit\">It\u2019s just common sense to let these tensions settle down and, until then, not offer up another obvious gathering point for extremists itching for action. President Trump should have recognized this before Tuesday\u2019s rally, but making his way through the large, tense and often heavily armed crowd in Phoenix should have really driven that point home. Thankfully, there were no serious injuries Tuesday, but the event clearly strained local law enforcement\u2019s capacity.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Look at the bright side; being a Red area, at least the cops in Phoenix showed up.<\/p>\n<p>My suspicion; Big Media is decreasingly able to cover up the depravity of its nephews and nieces in the extreme left.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m just saying that in the future, if some future wannabe despot wants to take over this country, suspend the Constitution and crush our freedoms without firing a shot (up front, anyway), he&#8217;ll need a society full of people who &#8220;think&#8221; like the Strib editorial board to have a chance of succeeding. \u00a0r They want [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[327,130,51,374],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-64263","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-big-activism","category-tc-media-bias","category-liberal-tyranny","category-social-justice"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.shotinthedark.info\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64263","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.shotinthedark.info\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.shotinthedark.info\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.shotinthedark.info\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.shotinthedark.info\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=64263"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/www.shotinthedark.info\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64263\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":64265,"href":"http:\/\/www.shotinthedark.info\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64263\/revisions\/64265"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.shotinthedark.info\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=64263"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.shotinthedark.info\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=64263"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.shotinthedark.info\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=64263"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
