    So as long as an attack isn’t successful, it isn’t violent? Then the attempted assassination of Trump also wasn’t violent. Just a peaceful protest.

      Violence would be the Oklahoma City bombing. That actually accomplished something and was great. We need much more of that.

      Jan 6th couldn’t be successful because there wasn’t actual violence. The fact nobody was killed, not even the cops, shows it was all bullshit (except for that stupid girl who was killed for lack of shooting back)

      It’s the same disconnect from reality as the guy who shot at Trump thinking an AR was an “high powered rifle for killing” like it’s always portrayed when it’s totally wrong and appropriate for that shot. He was a moron and if he’d actually studied at all Trump would be dead. We can only hope the next attempt is successful. There’s still time for Biden too.

          Violence does something. It eliminates enemy combatants or resources. A protest doesn’t do shit

              You fucking idiots who argue “anything done by the Right no matter how tame is violence, and anything done by the Left no matter how abusive or violent is righteous” are apparently all over this platform. I joined this app cause I was curious about this platform that claimed to be Reddit Lite, but now I see this place is just an echo chamber for Left-leaning gaslighting narcissists.

              You won’t even acknowledge that a right-wing protest in which no one attempted to perpetrated an act of violence is not “violence”, or acknowledge that you are blatantly determining what constitutes violence solely upon the political party that someone claims, and not upon the actions being perpetrated and then gaslighting people about it. So, go fuck yourselves. 😘

                Yeah, 'member when they peacefully bludgeoned that police officer?

                You’re too stupid to function, bub.
