They can’t handle it when adults are in charge after 8 years with no supervision.

Any threat of violence against Trump should be treated as a terrorist incident with the culprits facing a firing squad

"Civilization is actually on the ropes. "

When has the Left cared about civilization? They've been trying to tear it down since the 60's, for the purpose of replacing it with some sort of utopia they can't even describe or understand. But one must come before the other in their minds, so why worry about details now?

Anymore, the default response of the left to something they don’t like is violence.

This should all be laid at the feet of the man responsible for it. The vile, incompetent, community agitator Obama.

Loud mouthed celebrities will be among the first to go. Careful lefties. We’ll only take so much. Don’t think so? Keep it up.

Fictional victimhood is the first resort of tyrants and bigots. Based on their pretend victim status, they feel morally justified to bloody their hands and create real-life victims.

Heinz Kohut contended that tantrums were narcissistic rages,[15] caused by the thwarting of the infant’s grandiose-exhibitionist core. The blow to the inflated self-image, when a child’s wishes are (however justifiably) refused, creates fury because it strikes at the feeling of omnipotence.[16]

Just let the cops do their job using whatever means necessary. Nightsticks and mace come to mind.

The solution is simple: just arrest them when they step over the line and don't let them off easy like Bammy did. Heavy fines and jail time will dampen their enthusiasm.

“Once we have reached the point where overt tearing of the social fabric is seen by half the country as morally decent, there is no more social fabric to tear. Civilization is actually on the ropes.”


Except it is nowhere near half. At most, maybe a quarter. And the 75% that is the rest of the country are seeing President Trump as more and more legitimate.

The left has used its false “victim-hood” as a shield, in order to victimize everyone else in society. It has gone on long enough.

Hmmm... let's see: Um, 50 per cent. Does this mean I should get out more?

IMHO, who cares what these people think feel?

Are their feelings any more important than anyone else's? If so, why?

The media is complicit. In fact, they push the narrative.

“Violence only becomes acceptable in the minds of most people if they are the victims. And not just victims — ultimate victims. They must have no other option. That means that playing up the threat of a Trumpocalypse means heightening the likelihood of violence. And we have indeed seen isolated incidents of anti-Trump violence around the country, dating all the way back to the campaign, when the media simply ignored Black Lives Matter movement attempts to shut down Trump campaign events.”

Little Ben denouncing the “Upper-class elites at the SAG Awards” and supporting Trump? Something tells me somebody’s finances have been impacted.
