You are missing the point...I don’t know how to spell it out any more clearly. You don’t go to the other side to GET your side..you go to the other side to GIVE your side..or stir up trouble....which is what this person was doing.
The way it is written doesn’t make sense.
Oh wait, I guess my post doesn’t make sense...I missed the word TO...so yeah, I don’t make sense.
He was going THROUGH the crowd to get to the other side..in essense..
