    I don't need no weapons. I'm this dude.



    Ok, maybe not.

    Again, you missed my point. I'm not talking about use of the weapon in a violent fashion, either defensively or offensively. I'm talking about violence being deterred as a result of the weapon's presence.

    It's like parking a patrol car in a highly visible spot in the middle of a freeway median. There doesn't even have to be an officer inside the vehicle for 95+% of drivers to slow down upon seeing the car. It's not a measure of enforcement, but of prevention via the theoretical possibility of enforcement. I could (conceivably) accomplish a similar result regarding my own personal safety by carrying a highly-visible but unloaded handgun, without any intention of using it.

    Okay, and I understand the deterant effect, but do you REALLY think its any type of deter ant at these rallies?
    I think you are comparing apples to oranges in this instance.
    At these rallies I don't see people showing up with sticks and batons and expect it to provoke peace.
    I see them getting run over by cars and getting into conflicts left and right.
    So I get your point, but I think your point is invalid in these instances.

    Sure, in this instance, no argument there. I was simply taking exception with the claim that weapons have no purpose other than to be used in a violent fashion.

    I think we're in agreement.

    Sorry I should have clarified my original post. At these rallies, a weapon is a weapon is a weapon and only serves to instigate violence.

    I clearly posted Antifa videos from the Berkeley event so I don't get what she is saying. There were a lot of Antifa from the looks of it so this shit is confusing. Even the fucking Washington post finally did an article on it...

    This is what happens when somebody has bias views that are very clear. It's an agenda. Stop spreading lies saying you went and it was peaceful because I clearly saw it wasn't and don't even make me mention when Berkeley go ape shit and shut down the event Milo was supposed to speak at a while back, professors even joining antifa and exposed losing their jobs. This shit is getting weird

    Antifa had an ass whooping permit, duh. They were there just singing folk songs and a couple of Nazis must have shown up asking for a beat down. It's really obvious that the Nazis deserve it.

    Have you seen The Boy in the Striped Pajamas?

    I highly recommend it if you haven't. At the end, I'm like Kevin Durant...Tough shit. You have to see it to know what I'm talking about.

    I think my reaction to that movie is enough proof that I hate Nazis. Don't gotta punch any.

    I will go along with punching Nazis if I can bitchslap antifa too.

    Good people on all sides.

    'Antifa' violence in Berkeley becomes problem for left-wing activist community

    Of the dozens of organizations that turned out for Sunday’s mass protest against racism here, one group was impossible to miss.

    Its members dressed head to toe in black, with masked faces and some bearing pastel-painted riot shields that read “no hate.” These 100 or so militants billed themselves as a security force for progressive counter-protesters, vowing to protect them from far-right agitators.

    But as the protest got underway, some of those in masks would resort to mob violence, attacking a small showing of supporters of President Trump and others they accused, sometimes inaccurately, of being white supremacists or Nazis.

    The graphic videos of those attacks have spurred soul-searching within the leftist activist movement in the Bay Area and beyond. Emotions remain raw in the wake of this month’s white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Va., which left one woman dead and dozens injured.

    I'm very glad I have men like bodyman around to tell me what happened at an event they did not go to.

    Remember this sentiment during the next rape trial verdict you don't like.

    Well, close. I see some differences just like that video where the white guy and black guy each carry AR15s or some gun. Similar but not identical

    Big shout out to the man in the red shirt that jumped in and said something like "stop beating this guy".
