I think he shoved or body slammed the reporter. But as I have pointed out and no lib will acknowledge, the left engages in far more violence then the right. Far more and the assaults much worse.

I won't list on the times the left as assaulted those on the right either on campuses or at political rallies, but let me leave you with Dem leaders and their actions:

Libs go nuts over this one incident
How often does a congressman or congressman candidate body slam and punch a reporter? I've never heard of it happening before yet you think that it's not news worthy. If it would have happened a couple weeks earlier it might have cost him the election and the Repubs a seat. The scuffles at Trump campaign events have all been reported on numerous times when they occurred.

Does Moe ever get the big picture?
You and patx love to change the subject and in this instance, I can't blame you. It is true that topic got diverted a little but at least we're still talking about the congressman incident.

I'm not changing the topic, I'm saying that you don't have the ability to see the whole picture. Stay focused on the congressman, be outraged, IDGAF.

I agree that what he did was wrong. I correctly point out the libs/Dems do far more political violence. They even do far worse political rhetoric as the two links I posted prove (the DNC head Perez and the California DNC head). Libs don't want to acknowledge these facts.

Lib demonstrations destroying First Amendment. Lib demonstrators assaulting people, destroying property, threatening people, and yet libs on this board essentially silent.

What the Congressman did was bad but pales in comparison to what the left is doing.

Ok Ann Coulter, go on girl!

Do you dispute the facts I have presented? If so, please provide your own to rebut my claims.

You make light of Coulter being forced off campus. This is no laughing matter. It is tearing the country apart. Condi, Ben Carson, Shapiro, Jason Riley, David Horowitz, Dr. Charles Murray, etc. have all been denied their first amendment rights by radical leftists supported by faculty and administrators.

You don't get to define what America is dipstick. Now go back and read my edit.
Is it not a democratic republic? Is it not a country built on liberty?

I think it's ok that you get to vote, even though I don't think that vote is informed. I teach because of failures like you.

I'm opposed to violent protesters. I'm opposed to violent politicians. That's regardless of party or other affiliation. I have voted for D's, R's, and I's. I'm registered as unaffiliated in my home state because I don't like the polarized nature of our current 2 party system. The difference I see between our points of view, I'm speaking to Bill & PATX here, is that I'm not willing to excuse the actions of one person because I agree with his (or their) politics.

I told you. Left isn't a blanket identity, neither is right. I said many, many, many times I was against violent protests on campuses. These are angry, frustrated and immature college kids (in most cases). This incident was a grown man, rep for the GOP, and a candidate for Congress. Although a major difference, I don't say that this man's actions are a uniform attitude of the right, do I? Do I say that the right is filled with testosterone charged, arcane, fools that do not have the patience or respect for a small annoyance that would allow their emotions to get the better of them in critical situations? No....I talk about THIS GUY only. Because I'm smart enough to realize that you can assume to know a massive group of people based on the actions of a few.

Bushy beaver is a sexist fascist, but I don't assume you are too.

It is not just students, but faculty (one was just arrested yesterday in Berkeley for beating a man with a bicycle lock) and administrators. If you pick one guy on the right to vilify, I will correctly and factually point out those on the left who have done far worse.

The Founders of the nation disagree with you, about universal suffrage, wholeheartedly. Then again I'm for a two state solution here in "America", the sane people on the right and the dipshits on the left. I don't want to live in your world, but I also don't want to force you to live in mine. Unless you guys keep pushing a zero sum outcome then I'm all for crushing you.

Of course you try to change the subject and go back to things that happened during the campaign. This thread is about a recent incident.

Trump Tells Crowd to ‘Knock the Crap Out’ of Protesters, Offers to Pay Legal Fees
http://www.mediaite.com/online/trum...p-out-of-protesters-offers-to-pay-legal-fees/

I am talking about things occurring TODAY (figuratively). The campus assaults, rally assaults (after Trump became President), shutting down free speech. You cite one incident, admittedly very wrong, but ignore all the lefty violence and violent rhetoric.

Provide proof that my posts are not factual. You have failed to do so to this point yet you say it is BS. I thought you were a teacher. Don't teachers back up their points with proof?

Oh, there isn't racist violence in the south today? There isn't right wing extreme violence today? What is this imaginary timeframe that supports your argument then?

There is violence everyday. I am talking about political violence as is the purpose of this entire thread. Now, you are on a tangent. Provide proof that I did not state facts?

And I can point to left violence (non political) just as you can point to righty violence.

But stay on point.

I'm not getting into this he said/she said crap. It's pointless. Radical elements on both sides do stupid, violent things - from Dylan Roof to the antifa idiots. One is taking people's lives, another assaulting people and destroying property. This isn't a nation of radical elements. This is a nation where the majority live somewhere well in between the lines of those radical elements. I don't excuse the actions of the radicals in any way. My concern is when someone who was just elected as a representative can't control his temper.

One of the Fox reporters in an interview said that the statement released by the campaign was incorrect in every way except in the spelling of his name. I'm less concerned now that the guy has accepted responsibility and apologized to all involved. That was the right thing to do. It would have been a better first reaction though - not releasing a bogus statement trying to cover his rear. I expect my representatives to have flaws - they're human. I'm willing to forgive people for mistakes. I'm less willing to do that when they go to CYA mode right away. Maybe I'm the exception here.
