Considering the fact that the largest protest in American history, The Womens' March where millions of people flooded the streets without a single arrest, than yeah the overwhelming majority of the protesters are peaceful and non-violent. But that gets in the way of your agenda so that will probably just be dismissed by you guys.


The Pussyhat march was much more of a costume parade than a protest/riot. Just because that one got it right, doesn't excuse the rest that have wreaked havoc.


I said one of you guys would be by to try and dismiss it. Remember this was the largest protest in U.S. history with people marching in all fifty states and 81 other countries spanning all seven continents. This comes directly after the installation of the most unpopular incoming President in modern history. That's not something that can just be brushed aside.

I'm not to worried about your constant demonizing of any protest the left happens to make. It rings hollow. Of course there are going to be people who act badly. They're called criminals and they are the minority just as in everyday life. This is what the police are there for, to arrest these people and bring charges.

Besides, taking to the streets in protest has been an American tradition ever since the founding of this country. That is why it is enshrined in our Constitution as the very first amendment. It would be nice if more conservatives cared about the first amendment as much as they do about the second half of the second amendment.

It was nothing like this after Obama won both times. Keep it up, though...

TrigglyProf: Woman who identifies herself as an NYU professor goes completely deranged, screaming obscenities at the police. (Remember Melissa Click at Missouri?) Why is she screaming at the police? Because she thinks they should be beating up "Nazis" -- i.e., some Trump supporter invited to give a talk on campus. (Gavin McInnes -- never heard of him.) This is the face of the Left:

What a joke.


You can, of course, support this absurd claim?


As you've declined to comment, I'll give you a helping hand. Here's a quote by me, on this site, in 2010:

I have been reading his book 'the art of the deal' lately it seems to me that his negotiating style is something that is needed to get things done in the real estate business.
