She warned her supporters against being "baited" into counter-demonstrations or confrontations with the organization, which she said has a track record of "violent and provocative behavior."

"I am requesting those individuals and groups planning a counter-protest to not be baited into confronting the Oath Keepers with any demonstrations in opposition," Waters said. "Such an occurrence would only exacerbate tensions and increase the potential for conflict."

The only people who might violently protest her are Democrats who don’t want her to create more damaging soundbytes.

Yeah, armed with logic.

That SHOULD scare her.

If Maxine gets any crazier I won’t shoot her but I might send her a donation.

Can’t think of a better investment to help Republicans get elected this fall!

Mad Max thinks we care.

She thinks we are a threat?

Now that is funny.

But I thought she wanted her supporters to get up in our faces and push back. Typical liberal Pussy - when its not some grandma holding a sign but a contingent of armed and trained ex-leos, now she’s all about descalation.

Why would conservatives psychically attack her?

She’s the best ‘tool’ they have in this election cycle.

Besides violent attacks is not their thing.

Armed protests against you? Why? You do that all by yourself.

Isn’t she the one that called for violent protests?

She must have dimensia or something. Why would she object to armed protesters. Does she want violence or not? She should make up her mind.
