Still waiting for some the alt-left wannabes from Canada to emphatically state/admit that American "white supremacists" have the right to "hate speech" and peaceful assembly without being attacked by alt-left criminals.

 

Of course they do.  But as you love to point out, might makes right.  And these Nerdzi losers will be blacklisted and hounded everywhere.

For now, at least, until the rocks start coming though the window.  To be clear, I am not happy with these events.

Absolutely different going back to the very beginning.   The American "racists" and rebels ran the loyalists out of the country while booting their monarch in the ass.

And no need to have a costly bloody war to end Slavery.

Ok then.  You are making the mistake of applying contemporary values to the past.  Rookie mistake, usually made by leftists who point out Lincoln was a racist etc.

Not at all.

It's used as a means of dealing with life, and the passing into the next life. Looking for a reason for being.

There is none. This is it. Religion is a hoax, just like Chem trails.

The big question:

 

Why are the leaders of these places - Charlottesville and Montreal -  allowing these kind of vandalisms to happen?

Why is the alt left,  given such kind of  destructive freedom?

The Jefferson Davis plaque on Hudson's Bay building in Montreal was removed by decision of The Bay, not by vandals.  It wasn't a great historical piece, it was donated by the United Daughters of the Confederacy in the 1950s.  There wasn't really a good reason for a Canadian department store to display a plaque honoring a Confederate leader, especially a plaque donated by a shady group.

So, you would clearly agree that if a larger group of people showed up and destroyed a monument to Malcolm X, MLK, or painted over a rainbow crosswalk, that would be justified based on the number of people involved?

That's basically it.

If the majority of people don't want such a monument, then I guess the monument goes.

I suppose she'll be counting before she'll take a stand!  She'll be polling! :lol:

I'm not happy with the outcome of the events! 

 

Bottomline:  Charlottesville authorities f***ed up! 

The buck stops at the Mayor's doorstep!  No wonder he's too quick to point the limelight at Trump!  :lol:

 

These two groups shouldn't have been allowed to converge at the same place!  Furthermore, the alt left didn't even have a permit!

Ideally, the neo-Nazi and White Supremacists and their supporters in Canada could relocate to the States, to  a leader who will be happy to provide them with what they so ardently desire. 

 

Ideally, all left alt commies here should be shipped  to Communist countries of their choice!  We'll happily foot the bill!

You are missing the moral coding that allowed for building civil society

That's a reasonable approach. :o

How do we determine who are communists and who are not? Will we have Tribunals to figure out who's who?

"Could relocate" = their choice.  "Shipped off" = choice removed.  Therein lies a major difference between us.

Oh please. Religion had nothing to do with that. That's called evolution. More immorality has been done in the name of religion than anything.

Those alt right boy chiks are often/mostly religious zealots. I guess their moral coding didn't take.

Nah,  just let them be denounced by friends, relatives or whoever and ship them off to camps. Just like the good old days in Nazi Germany and Stalin's Russia.

It's hard to believe right-wing political discourse has degenerated so quickly that they are already trying to make the case that anti-racism is just as bad as racism.

No one has made that case, nor even tried to make that case.

It stops with the Republican party in shambles.

Unfortunately, we're also seeing strong voices from the far Left in the Democratic party trying to draw the party much further to the Left. That will draw them even further away from the mainstream and open up the opportunity for Trump or someone like him (but maybe smarter) to gain power after him.

I'm not sure what you mean by alt left. I think it's a way to try to make anti-racism seem radical when in reality it's just now most normal people think.

Some of the 'anti-racists' are extremely radical.

Yes, the anti-racist counter to white supremacy. Or what we like to call, good people.

The people who call themselves anti-racists or anti-fascists don't just counter white supremacy and nazis. A lot of them regard almost anyone on the right as a racist, here or in the US. Anyone who disagrees with immigration policy, for example, is racist. Certainly anyone who supports Trump will be accused of racism. And these groups will show up at any kind of right wing event or demonstration, wearing masks and hoods and trying to disrupt it, through violence if necessary.

HEY! You guys are protesting Neo Nazis and the KKK to vigorously! People are gonna die if you questions people's racism. :rolleyes:

I find the Left's protest tactics to be tedious and annoying as well. But I'm not going to condemn them from speaking out against unashamed racists.

So you don't have a problem with someone grabbing a club and a helmet and a mask and beating up anyone they think is a racist? That would include anyone questioning immigration, by the way, or multiculturalism, or saying unkind things about Islam.
