@Yellowdog . Am I mistaken? I thought there were two guards, at this School. Needing more than two seems unrealistic. One is/was in critical condition…
Also. Claiming that the side that showed up with guns at a peaceful protest were not the ones looking for violence, is being deliberately obtuse. Right? What if all those people started shooting people? Bringing a weapon into a situation only escalates it. It was not a calming strategy. It was stupid. Nobody can tell me that the liberals were going to show up armed to the teeth, wearing body armor… Such a presence was completely unwarranted…
You have to realize that the alt-right was there to be inflammatory. I am unsure of how many history professors showed up with rifles, and sidearms. But, I wager that you and I disagree on the unverifiable number.
Are you seriously suggesting that the ones on the right, were history professors, and peaceful people? Or that those who stood with them, deserve anything other than being shamed? And that the ones who showed up to protest hate, were in fact the violent ones?
I can’t think of many causes that I parallel white-supremacists on, but if I found myself on their side of ANYTHING, I would have to closely consider my position.
I want to understand your side. But you’re making it hard here…
