Due to all the protest vitriol that's been happening, shouldn't anti-bullying laws be enforced?

    Depends on who is asking, mgmt. is generally ok unless it is a Starbucks. Being run out by a bunch of loudmouth apseholes isn't ok.

    Nah, this is a total lack of civility and becoming radicalized psychopathy on steroids. Something better be done as in restricting this behavior before it gets anymore out of hand. Antifa mob violence is where we're all heading meaning everyone brawling in the streets at which point guns will be drawn to the point Marshall law will have to be called with all it entails. It's getting bad.
    Need to nip it in the bud.

    Post some videos of the tea party and their harassment of political officials going to dinner.

    I don't believe that there should be any changes in law or statutes. As stated earlier i want to see how this plays out.

    But thinking you can compare who has a more "motivated" stance when it comes to "protesting" between the left and the right isn't even comparable. The videos posted in the OP are disgusting.

    Look at the "protests" last night and hopefully this will continue. The right should be thanking the left.

    Protesting is one thing mob violence is another. What's happening all around the U.S. right now is getting very close to becoming a civil war and it's escalating daily. I don't like to see it no matter the party affiliation they claim to be part of. Many alt right neo nazi's were trying ot attach themselves to the conservative party for which 99% disowned them.

    We already have laws to prevent harassment, abuse, and threats, so no, we don’t need any new laws about that.

    As for the rest, when did so many Americans get all pissed off about free speech?

    Have you moved to the US yet? I don't post much but your Aussie input has about run its course. Time for a Walk-About or something? Just don't come to NYC.

    I agree. The next time I see a Democratic bumper sticker, I'm walking up to that person and call them a dumb sh-t. Hopefully in front of their little kids.

    I'm totally serious. The Dems started this.

    Nope, your way will ensure a bloodbath that tears this nation to shreds. Right now this crisis only exists in your mind. If we pass laws against this imaginary situation we will make it real.

    I don’t think we’re quite there just yet. I’m 47 and remember the 1992 LA Riots quite vividly as I was living in Santa Barbara at the time. Remember Ferguson? I’m not sure but I don’t think martial law was declared in either instance. I don’t think martial law has been declared in quite a long time. National Guard units were called out to both but I don’t recall martial law being declared. The last time was in 1961, Freedom Riders Incident.
    (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martial_law_in_the_United_States).

    We’re not even at civil unrest levels yet I don’t think. Tensions are bit high on both sides, but this happens from time to time. And with 24/7 access to news and events things tend to look worse than they might actually be. Although I do think people need to chill a bit on both sides. I don’t see the US on the brink of Civil War 2.0

    I think you are over exaggerating your risk assesment of civil war. Do we have the potential for some civil unrest? Sure.

    But as much as you seemed concerned, i'd like to see the boiling point. Are we talking about some of the "left" in the cities? I don't care. Burn their own neighborhoods down. Maybe some KKK NAZI MIEN KIEMPF dudes living in Kentucky have some protest on some city steps that I've never heard of? I don't care. (Charlottesville might be a barometer)

    But it's not like we are breaking the republic up along the mason dixon line and saying lets roll.

    Trump is bullying the elites, who themselves use their financial actions to do their conscienceles backstabbing anonymously.

    Perhaps you are unable to see that exporting the jobs of many of our people is bullying, but IMO removing the ability of an entire stratum of society from access to decent jobs is the worst kind.

    You ought to be careful what you wish for. That "dopey leftist" might be armed.

    Hooray for the internet keyboard warrior.
