    I blame our incredible need to blame someone for something.

    Not sure if inviting people to post videos summing up the other side is such a wise thing to do...

    I didn't invite shit; And I am totally sure you can find hillybilly ass mother fuckers doing stupid ass shit on video, publicly shame them, that's your and my right to do so, and we should!

    But this social just warrior movement in the USA and the backwards ass thinking that this lady displays is ridiculous, and if we publicly shame them (like we should) apparently we're harming their fragile little bodies and minds!

    my point was that it's not really someone who is "left" who does this (just as someone who is a complete nut job and on the "right") doesn't represent the right or the left.

    case in point a friend of mine (who is a conservative christian) is convinced that vaccines are "poisons", and if you asked her and recorded her, you'd think she was a complete nutter.

    She doesn't represent the right.

    Yes. We would love to it work like that. Except in this day and age the far-left (which I believe this lady fits into) is spilling out more and more into the regular left circles, case in point are all of the SJW movements on the college campuses, etc. But THIS discussion is probably better suited for another topic/thread.

    LOL ya...

    So, do you show the same disdain for the far right, which has taken over the republican party?

    Btw, what is SJW? (I'm looking that up after I post)

    Maybe he just wanted to have his fair shot of giving her the finger as well, since the woman stopped in front of this mans home for no reason other than to try to intimidate him or the family.

    Anti-Vaxxing, doesn't equate to censorship, violence when you disagree, and other such behavior that the far-left is doing. From my POV its apples to oranges.

    There is no such thing as the far right. We prefer to call ourselves True Americans.

    Flipping a stranger off is a high risk move....I learned that jogging in San Diego shortly after being discharged from the Navy....guy in a Pinto almost ran over me at a stop light when I had the right of way...I flipped him off and he stopped his car, got out and turned out he was a drill sgt from Camp Pendelton boot camp with a baseball bat.....I ran a 3 minute mile that day...never flipped anybody off in seriousness again....but my New York friends say it's like going for a cup of coffee in the Big Apple....you can flip off a cop there they say

    An amusing riposte, to be sure, but not accurate in my perhaps biased opinion.

    I am a liberal, and some liberals are (deeply? overly?) concerned about intolerance. I'm not one of them, I don't think.

    Not that I think intolerance is a good thing, but it's not something I focus on. I tend to make arguments like this one instead.

    What was the issue? Guy with a Trump sign doesn't like people yelling at him?

    Your vote for civil discourse is noted, your own level of civility notwithstanding.
