Assault is never a crime when leftists do it.

Remember that our domestic enemies know they got clean away with ALL violence after the 2016 election....

Why didn’t they fight back when their signs were destroyed?
What is wrong with our side?

In this instance, I believe they were playing it smart.

Right. Playing it smart? When the left starts sending us to reeducation camps, will we go willingly or fight back? When is enough, enough?

> The Senior Associate Dean of Students, Douglas Carrard, attempted to defuse the situation, telling the protesters “you guys can express your views, and they can express their views.” <

What a quaint, outdated view. I’m surprised that the “progressive” protesters didn’t beat the dean up. But maybe they’ll occupy his office until he issues a retraction.

I realize that Austin is a minnie San Freakcisco, but this is Texas. We should have seen armed defenders scaring off the pajama boys and pussy hat bullies.

Oh, definitely! Remember, Eric "The Red" Holder essentially told them that such behavior was okay, for "my people."

It died of suicide.

“In this instance, I believe they were playing it smart.”

Agreed, a glaring illustration of who are the adults here.

“do you think we give a [expletive] about your views?”

This is why the #walkaway campaign has hundreds of thousands of followers on Facebook.

It made the left look like the hateful, intolerant, violent bigots they are. It’s not head busting time until someone assaults you.

Sometimes conservative can get worked up about these kinds of events. Been there myself.

Headstamp2 posted on another thread:
I think we are on the verge of a true revolutionary party that is going to be resorting to wholesale violence/terrorism on a constant basis at some point.

Given the "we don't give a **** about your views" of the physically violent protesters in your thread, my response to headstamp2 seems to fit here.

"To the extent that history repeats itself, your concern could be valid. The seeds of the revolution in Russia that blossomed in 1917 can be traced to 1899-1902 conditions. The dynamics of then and now are not dissimilar.

In any event, 650 law professors petitioning for a Kavanaugh withdrawal alone provides ample room for concern.

How our government responds in the next few years may cast the die."

The people who tore up the signs should be charged criminally. This was done at another school when a woman stole someone’s MAGA cap. There needs to be consequences for such behavior. We have the perpetrators on tape so it should be a simple matter to identify and charge them.

It’s Austin, the Stalingrad of Texas. What did they expect. Should have packed some heat.

There’s no such thing as a non-violent leftist. And so far, they’ve been getting away with their antics and they actually believe that they always will.

I would have tacked on some of those mouse glue traps and disguised them, so once grabbed, these scum can fight the mouse glue.
