Were it not for the perfect covid storm, the Buffoon goes down quicker than the Hindenburg, aina?

True.  Had 45 not bungled it so badly after throwing away the emergency plan put into place by W (He did so, of course, because he didn't like W), he probably would have won but he was such a bad emergency president, like recommending putting bleach up your bum, it was easy peasy.

He could run off getting Operation Warp Speed accomplished but since the base is anti-vaccine, he can't.  But he does have all his indictments to run on.

Like family values and small government, the party of law and order never really believed in their values

No iminent harm by silently holding a sign.

Do I agree with their message? No. Do they have the right to speak it? Yes.

Just checking ... same if this happens on campus too (by students)?

By the way, they largely agree with a lot of what the current protestors believe about Jews.

They have assaulted hundreds of Jewish students. They have committed battery against dozens of Jewish Students.

At least everyone protesting at UCLA and the Ivies can be charged under these standards

As I mentioned previously, at Columbia there have been 100's of assaults of Arab/Muslim/Jewish Pro-Palestinian students, including dozens assaulted with a chemical weapon (skunk spray) by a former Israeli-soldier.

https://theintercept.com/2024/01/22/columbia-university-palestine-protest-skunk/

Someone already linked the assaults on the encampment of counter protesters at UCLA.

There still have been no congressional calls for action to deal with Islamaphobia, which some on here have even denied exists. While at the same time posters on here call anyone protesting Israeli military actions, or advocating Pro-Palestinian ideas, terrorists/Hamas (which is anti-Muslim and Islamaphobia).

There are widespread issues right now, being amplified on campuses, where both Pro-Israel and Pro-Palestinian individuals are being targeted with possible violence, hate speech, and assaults.

Why is it that some on here ignore the hate speech (or use it openly) and violence directed against one side. All of it is wrong and should be treated the exact same way. Anything that is making Pro-Israel students feel unsafe is wrong; just as is anything making Pro-Palestinian students feel unsafe.

Do you mean like the violent protests at UCLA this morning?

PROTESTORS USING BEAR SPRAY AND PEPPER SPRAY ON LAPD AND CA STATE POLICE

It has been reported that Pro-Palestine Protestors are actually using chemical sprays (Pepper and Bear) to hold off the police.

Bear spray is incredibly stinging, and breathing into the chest is very painful.

In response, LAPD is using Tear Gas and Flash Bangs to push back the protestors.

Not surprisingly, this story turned out to be fake news.  She was seen being pulled away from the protestors by her counter protestors, during a counter protest where she then fell back and hit her head. 

I'll find the video for you, if you'd like.

So Hards's new standard is protestors he agrees with can hit people all they like as long as they don't hurt them is protected by the First Amendment.

They attacked her, and counter-protestors came to her aid; you cannot see what insanity you are arguing for?

Since the "very fine people on both sides" argument did not work ... you're going to try the "both sides are at fault" angle.

Got it.

LOL. He neither said nor implied that. You're flailing about again.

Actually no. He was pointing out that you were being dishonest. Which is something you usually resort to when your argument heads south.

[Pakuni]

Nope. I'm saying just one side is at fault, the side that attacked the encampment.
As one who abhors violence, I can only imagine you want those people arrested and prosecuted for assault, battery and hate crime, right? And if they're students, they should be expelled, yes?
Despite our differences, I'm sure we can find common ground on this.
