    I didn't care when Bill Clinton did Monica Lewinsky and I don't care that Trump banged a porn star. That this concerns you more than the other things he has done tells me you...

    But you just did. Typical rightie tactic, warping the actual facts to suit their agenda. It's laughable.

    FFS I'm one of the proponents of handling these encampments. That doesn't mean you can just open fire into a random crowd for the sin of saying something you find to be yucky.

    There isn't a brightline of "if they do X you can do Y". There is a reasonable use of force paradigm. Nothing that has been done authorizes a Kent State you bloodthirsty...

    What would be needed to open fire? An action that imminently threatens unlawful use of deadly force. Chanting or saying you're part of Hamas? Ain't that.

    You realize that halting harassment of american citizens based upon their race or ethnicity, and removing squatters, has exactly jack **** to do with anyone defending islamophobia?

    It is a fine line to walk: "death to Israel" versus "death to" an individual or group of individuals. The fascist righties here would have us lock up people or force...

    You responded to my response to somebody claiming Palestine doesn't exist and Gaza is part of Israel. If Palestine is not part of Israel, then yes, it is a different calculus.

    No, people have been having anti-war and anti-Israel protests. That's not the same as anti-semitic. But hey, what are facts to righties ?
