If it is the Republicans who are to blame... why are liberals the ones protesting?

So basically, liberals are like children and are not responsible for their own actions?

Democratic Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas appeared on Fox News Sunday and blamed the federal government, the president's rhetoric and the Republican Party for fomenting and exacerbating violent upheaval in several major American cities.

I am exasperated and confused by these sorts of logical pretzels. Are people simply no longer responsible for their own actions because they are upset with "rhetoric" or the Republican Party in general? It's not as if the targets of this anger and destruction is aimed at the President or a political Party. It's mostly just looting and destruction of local property that has nothing to do with anything these people are supposedly mad at.

Do we teach our children that if someone says something that they do not like or agree with, that the appropriate response is to destroy something, hurt someone, or otherwise throw some sort of tantrum?

Obviously that's not the way I was brought up and it's now how I brought up my kids.

But the question obviously remains... is this how the new generation of children (now old enough to put on a black mask and riot) was brought up? Does the Mayor of Kansas City actually believe that we can deflect blame for our own actions on the fact that we are upset?

If we walked into a classroom and saw a bunch of gradeschoolers throwing tantrums, ripping up books, setting toys on fire, and throwing things at the teacher... would we somehow try to blame someone other than the children or the teacher who cannot control the class room?

Sorry folks... but the grade school tantrum is really the only fitting analogy here.

That says something...

when was the last time a democrat took responsibility for their own actions?

it's ALWAYS someone else's fault with these people. ALWAYS.

He's absolutely correct.

Trump has triggered the new civil era.

The murder of Floyd has created a new movement in American politics that history.

Your in denial of the reality that the President is a racist asshole just like rrb and unfortunately you too.

Successful?

1000 Texans are dead in just six days from COVID-19.

Today you would call him a traitor

President Dwight Eisenhower, Republican, uttered these words on November 8, 1954:
“Should any political party attempt to abolish social security, unemployment insurance and eliminate labor laws and farm programs, you would not hear of that party again in our political history. There is a tiny splinter group, of course, that believes that you can do these things. Among them are a few Texas oil millionaires, and an occasional politician or businessman from other areas. Their number is negligible and they are stupid.”

Wow. Glad to see that quote at last. I knew Ike had said something along that line.

He might as well have been talking to the wind, when it comes to Trumpister types.

So you are in agreement with me, huh old Rog?

Liberals are incapable of controlling themselves...

They are easily "triggered" into committing silly acts of violence because they are just that upset with the "bad orange man".


Glad we are in agreement!!!!

Still an extremely childish reaction to political rhetoric...

blowing things up, burning things down, looting, and stabbing people... all because they lost an election and don't like the "bad orange man"?

wouldn't you agree?
