Woman punches man in Broadway bar over MAGA-style birthday hat

She said to harass them in random, public places. "Political context" my hairy, white ass. How the damn hell was she NOT censured for that? She could easily have gotten a public servant, killed and may yet.

 

Who called people to arms and who sent 'them off' to assault Republicans? Do I need to go to the dictionary to assist you to understand that 'harass' does not mean 'assault?'

 

"Merely harass"

Unbelievable!

 

These people will say anything.

 

Neither post made by you.

 

If you see them anywhere, you push back and you form a crowd and you let them know they are not welcome anymore, anywhere".

Libs would have stroked out if Trump said the same. But go ahead and deny that. Entertain us.

 

Does harass mean assault?

 

Of course Duterte is a great villain and sinner for his blasphemy and Atheism.

But at least he deals justly with violent Leftist groups.

 

Please allow me to ask you a question to see if I am understanding you correctly. In the situation with the MAGA hat which is under discussion, it would seem that in your opinion, the person WEARING the MAGA hat is considered to be verbally or psychologically abusing those who dislike Trump and what they perceive he stands for. Am I correct? Is this how you see it?

I ask, because to me and I believe most others in this discussion, when you talk about it being easier to escape from the non-physical "violence", we would think that verbally accosting the wearer of the hat, hurling insults or attempting to get them thrown out of the establishment is what would qualify as the non-physical violence, NOT that someone was emotionally triggered by what someone else happened to be wearing. And we would feel the same about someone who was "triggered" by an Antifa shirt.....or the Black Power Salute, or whatever. It goes both ways. If the person wearing the article of clothing or carrying the sign is not engaging in any prohibited activity, we would consider ACTING on whatever emotions are felt to be the problem of the person acting out. For what it's worth, I feel emotions all the time. Other people annoy me, inconvenience me, disgust me, delight me, "trigger me", etc frequently......but I would never voice anything about it to the person in question unless I had something positive and kind to say. It's on ME to deal with any negative emotions I may feel as reactions to others who are not actually interacting with me, and yes, I expect the same behavior of other sane rational adults. No, all behaviors are not equivalent -- the person who can and does control themselves is the one behaving correctly, and it's not wrong or uncaring to point out that those who either cannot or choose not to control their own emotional reactions to other people are the ones who have a behavioral issue. So if you find that point of view to be "attacking", I'm sorry, but yes, I judge that to be your problem.

 

I can visualize now for future harrassment cases everywhere..."You're overreacting I was just merely harrassing them! Geez...."

 

And? She beat me to stating the patently obvious.

 

I have no idea why people cannot simply read. I have said that the comments by Waters were 'over the top,' but nowhere have I endorsed an assault, and neither did she.

 

It can, and could easily be battery...

It's enough to have your a$$ taken to court...

 

Nope, speak for yourself Fat Back. No coat tailing on others. Is this hate speech or not?

 

Thanks for the entertainment. Any rational person reading her words sees a call to whip up a mob.

 

Another liberal gem of just some "mere harrassment"...

 

Nope, calling it like it is. He never called for public confrontation and mob tactics. They are vicious people, is that in question?

 

Silly. Show me any dictionary which suggests that to 'harass' (in a political context) means to 'assault.'

 

My goodness, Bush Lawyer! Look at threads it's EXACTLY what is in fact happening! Surely you see the difference between calling someone viscous and inciting mobs against political opponents!

 

Mrs Seal...really....do you really expect anyone to but a heavilt edited YouTube thing? Come on!

 

Here from the dictionary:
ha·rass·ment
/həˈrasmənt,ˈherəsmənt/
noun
noun: harassment; plural noun: harassments

1. aggressive pressure or intimidation.
   "they face daily harassment and assault on the streets"

 

The words were still said, Bush Lawyer...come on now!

 

There goes the hyperbole, yet again. Who was inciting mobs TO ASSAULT political opponents? Harass, yes. Assault...no.

 

Your repeated use of "political context" cant obscure her own words. The context was clear.

“If you see anybody from that Cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd and you push back on them! And you tell them that they are not welcome, anymore, anywhere,”

 

Do you see the 'and' between 'harassment' and 'assault?' What does that mean to you?
