Everything liberals accuse the right of doing has been done by them: collusion with Russians, mob behavior, lack of civility, being dictatorial, lying, etc. The list is endless. This is can also happen on a personal level with liberal friends. Here is my story.
I went to my liberal friend for a couple of drinks and to chat on a Friday night. Another liberal friend of his dropped in. Conversation naturally turned to Trump. Over the course of discussing Trump voices were getting louder and I was finding it hard to speak with two voices shouting me down. Then my friend stood up and I started to stand up when he came toward me, jumped on top of me with his hands around my throat and screaming "YOU ARE OUT OF CONTROL!!!" I finally wrestled him off and circled around the room shouting at him, "You're a F****** moron!" And then he screamed "Get out you TRUMPSTER!!!" and starts to cry a bit (maybe realizing he lost a friend). I shrugged and left.
But what struck me was that he had to come across the room to shut me down from saying anything because in his mind "I was out of control." The fact was that he lost control of the argument and then felt he lost control of the situation to the point where he had to physically act. This is projection on a person level.
I'm curious if anybody has a similar story they would like to share.
They are almost all Aholes regarding politics and culture. I have exactly one liberal friend who is a really nice guy.
Alcohol, the cause of, and solution to, all of life’s problems.
I would file a police report, there is a witness.
Great story. I have been observing and making this point for years. If you want to know what the Left is actually doing or covering up, just listen to what they rail against the Right about. It will be there in black and white...clear as day.
“he came toward me, jumped on top of me with his hands around my throat”
Why didn’t you have him arrested?
Please tell me you called the police and pressed assault charges against him. If not, why did you not do so?

Right to Carry State?
That great!
You’re right that that can intensify things and I wondered about that too.
I almost had a similar experience af a memorial yesterday
I reminded him it would end horribly for him
Then ike tedd a bit humor
Stupid.
It’s not like Washington runs your daily life...
You’re right. I decided to let it drop... not sure why, maybe because he was my friend at some point.
Exactly.
Very interesting. Your experience is sort of the Nation in a bottle.
Thanks. You’re right it is clear as day... though they can’t see worth beans.
I don’t know... I had mixed feelings, kinda felt sorry for him — he was my friend — and maybe the alcohol contributed. No real harm done too... so I was torn.
Your mistake is having liberal friends.
Every time anyone lets a crime by a liberal leftist ‘drop’, it emboldens the next liberal or even the same liberal to commit another crime. We must draw the line at each act if we are to change the course of history and avoid a civil war.

Should we zot him or turn him into a newt?
