    At some point you have to say enough is enough instead of coming out with this stupid ass excuse.

      "we are in the process of the second American Revolution, which will remain bloodless if the left allows it to be.” - Heritage Foundation President Kevin Roberts

      I don’t think people calling for restraint understand what we’re up against.

        It’s pretty stunning how they talk like terrorists and abusers and people just go with it.

        But I guess I know from experience that conservative culture has a lot of “shut up and deal with it” conditioning. And not like “practicing stoicism is good for you” dealing with it. It’s more like “know your place, respect your betters, and shut your mouth.”

          It’s the “might makes right” approach.

          Most of us get educated about why that’s bad in pre-school. Nobody likes a bully and often bullying is ended with a swift punch in the face from the victim. People like Stephen Miller just haven’t got theirs yet.
