Pretty sure that if OutHouse had been alive in 1776, he'd have been describing the American rebels as an "anarchist mob" and calling for crackdowns against them.
Yeah, but then he'd have had a point.
And give us our tea back.

I don't get why you don't get it.
Granted, the mob took away the public's choice. But the Republican legislature did the same thing. By trying to keep these statues prominently displayed, they ended up losing the statues completely.
Do you think a small group of locals should always be able to over rule the State and/or Federal laws? To criminally destroy something or someone regardless what the rule of law is?
That leadership was democratically elected. Therefore, they were doing the will of the people when the law was passed. There was a legal process that could have been used to reverse it. And with enough public pressure, that process could have been expedited. There was nothing about the statue that warranted drastic illegal action.
The problem lies with BLM supporters insisting that "all lives matter" is an insult and must not be heard. Arguing that they agree that all lives matter is difficult to take seriously while they are attacking anyone saying that.
It seems the National Review agrees with you and opposes the ACLU in regards to free speech.

"A New York Times op-ed is right, and the ACLU is wrong. In the New York Times, UCLA’s K-Sue Park proposes that “the A.C.L.U. Needs to Rethink Free Speech”: After the A.C.L.U. was excoriated for its stance, it responded that “preventing the government from controlling speech is absolutely necessary to the promotion of equality.” Of course that’s true. The hope is that by successfully defending hate groups, its legal victories will fortify free-speech rights across the board: A rising tide lifts all boats, as it goes. ......................."
Why is it that the right aren't very good at satire? It's always a bit clunky and crude.
Didn't you ever read the story of the boy who cried wolf? Antifa is the boy who cried "Nazi".LOL...so a small whacko leftist group calls normal people Nazis (citation needed)...which causes the actual Nazis to come out. I have that right?
Do what? Not believe you when you call someone a Nazi?In essence, the trolls made us do it is what you are saying.
Oh I see, you're trying hard to justify falsely calling people who aren't Nazi's "Nazi's".Sounds very much like an excuse to do what people wanted to do in the first place, but maybe that's just me.
Didn't you ever read the story of the boy who cried wolf? Antifa is the boy who cried "Nazi".
Yes, if you call anyone that disagrees with your ideology a "Nazi", then people are going to start automatically assuming you are lying when you say anyone is a"Nazi", even if an actual Nazi comes along.
And the tiny minority of actual Nazi's know this is happening, so they've opportunistically started coming out of the shadows.
If you're not even willing to acknowledge the reality, then the problem is only going to get worse.Nope.
It's about calling Nazis, Nazis. This isn't about "anyone who disagrees with you."
The fact that you're even asking that is extremely dishonest.Are you trying to defend the actual Nazis that have called themselves Nazis?
There's also no defense for falsely accusing people of Nazi's because they don't want to join the communist ideology pretending to have a monopoly on "being anti Nazi".Does this mean you are a Nazi? There is no defense for Nazis, you get that, right?
No, those were Nazi's. And the reason they are now out in the open is because of all the people the communist group have falsely accused of being Nazi's.Those that showed up in VA are Nazis, because, you know, they fucking called themselves Nazis and chanted like goddamn goatfucking pedo Nazis. Just like you expect Nazis to do. ...but are you saying they have "political differences?"
If you're not even willing to acknowledge the reality, then the problem is only going to get worse.
Antifa is going to continue calling people who disagree with them "Nazi's" and keep doubling down on people who say outright that they are not, and that they denounce Nazi's, you're going to create the conditions necessary for actual Nazi's to grow.
For instance, Donald Trump outright said that "both sides are to blame", in other words, he was denouncing both Nazi's and Antifa. But Antifa are trying to say that he supported the Nazi's, which is just dishonest.
And I'm not even a Donald Trump fan, or right wing, but this kind of thing is exactly why people voted against the Democrat party.
The fact that you're even asking that is extremely dishonest.
I'm against Nazi's, and I'm against the communist ideology crying wolf about "Nazi's", because it hurts the people being falsely accused, and because it actually creates the conditions necessary for Nazi's to start growing. I do not want either of those things.
There's also no defense for falsely accusing people of Nazi's because they don't want to join the communist ideology pretending to have a monopoly on "being anti Nazi".
The communist Antifa group is just as fascist as the Nazi's, except Antifa have larger numbers, which makes them a bigger threat.
No, those were Nazi's. And the reason they are now out in the open is because of all the people the communist group have falsely accused of being Nazi's.
If we didn't have Antifa or BLM creating so much chaos, the small minority of actual Nazi's wouldn't dare come out in the open.
He's got a verifiable track record of racism.For starters, if you think Trump saying 'there's blame on many sides' (not to mention that there are 'fine people on both sides') means he's opposing the Nazis you are _incredibly_ naive (and I have this bridge to sell you...). Just naive to the point where I suspect it's disingenuousness. And yeah, you _are_ right wing, or you wouldn't make such a silly argument. Even if its a passive kind of conservatism that stems from lack of interest/awareness.

More than 12 years of lurking and this is the best you could come up with? Sheesh....
Most of my liberal friends are denouncing the mob take down of statues.
I am an art and history enthusiast so it breaks my heart when I hear people suddenly destroy these things. Perhaps the next step will be mobs breaking into libraries and burning books...

Saying it's "incredibly naive" is not an argument.This is really weak stuff.
For starters, if you think Trump saying 'there's blame on many sides' (not to mention that there are 'fine people on both sides') means he's opposing the Nazis you are _incredibly_ naive (and I have this bridge to sell you...).
No, you don't get to say that anyone who isn't part of the communist ideology is "right wing", and you certainly don't get to tell me what my politics are. Only I can decide what my politics are.And yeah, you _are_ right wing, or you wouldn't make such a silly argument.
I'm less concerned about whether you decide to be offended as I am with saying what's true.Secondly that argument that you are going to 'create the conditions for actual Nazis to grow' is also pretty offensive.
If your extremeist movement calls normal people "Nazi's" long enough, it is going to make some of them actually become Nazi's. That's not a "threat", that's an observation of what is.It sounds like a childish threat. "Say nasty things to me and I'll turn Nazi, so there!".
Don't lie, I did not lump all leftists together as "communists". I said Antifa is communist, because it is. And Antifa does not represent the entirety of the left, even though it pretends to.Also you do the usual right-wing thing (clearly you _are_ right-wing) of lumping all leftists together as 'communist'.
Antifa's flag is literally the flag of the German communist party of 1932, and you see plenty of them openly waving around the red hammer and sickle flag.Seems to me that most of the Antifa folk these days are anarchists of some variety.
Just look at some of the videos of what happened at the G20, for example. Random cars burned for no apparent reason, millions of dollars worth of property damage.Your final line is just beyond ridiculous. Where is all this 'chaos'?
No, we would have Nazi's regardless, but if Antifa and BLM weren't crying wolf and causing chaos all the time they wouldn't dare come out into the open, or be able to opportunistically take advantage of the backlash to grow in numbers. They'd simply remain a tiny minority that everybody hates, with maybe a few thousand supporters total at most (more likely just in the hundreds).If only people would shut up and not complain about issues like cops shooting black people, then we wouldn't have Nazis?
