There are no Rightist violent protests, there are no Rightist plots to shut up opponents....
You have a short memory:
quote:
17. May 28, 2016 in San Diego, California. Trump supporters pepper-sprayed protesters outside a rally.
13. April 11, 2016, in Albany, New York. A protester at a rally was shoved in the face twice by a Trump supporter.
12. March 19, 2016, in Tucson, Arizona. A protester at a Trump rally was sucker-punched and kicked by a 32-year-old man who was then arrested on an assault charge.
11. March 19, 2016, in Tucson, Arizona. A Trump security official and Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski appeared to grab and pull a protester at the same Tucson rally.
10. March 9, 2016, in Fayetteville, North Carolina. A black protester being escorted out of a Trump rally was sucker-punched by a white bystander:
6. Dec. 14, 2015, in Las Vegas. Individuals at a Trump rally yelled "Sieg Heil" and "light the motherfucker on fire" toward a black protester who was being physically removed by security staffers.
4. Dec. 3, 2015, in New York City. A security guard took a sign from and struck an immigration activist during a protest after a Trump event.
3. Nov. 21, 2015, in Birmingham, Alabama. A black protester at a Trump rally was punched, kicked, and, according to the Washington Post, briefly choked.
Trump later defended the crowd's treatment of the protester, saying that "maybe he should have been roughed up because it was absolutely disgusting what he was doing."
2. Oct. 23, 2015, in Miami. A man at a Trump rally knocked down and kicked a Latino protester.
1. Oct. 14, 2015, in Richmond, Virginia. Individuals at a Trump rally shoved and took signs from a group of immigration activists. One spit in a protester's face

If a person can't get away with using the bathroom of choice and freaks out little kids or other human beings, there is a problem.
I'm a borderline human being. I'm freaked out by sharing a (public) bathroom with anybody. I have shared a (public) bathroom with a trans person and he or she (whichever he or she prefers) freaks me out less than most. I'm guessing that he or she is more freaked out than I am and I hope I'm not adding to the freak-out.

Why am I always so astonished at the stupidity of the Left?
The less you know, the more likely you are to be astonished. I've seen two-year-olds astonished by a broom.
And the less you know, the more likely you are to think other peole are stupid.

Yikes you think totalitarian has to be in power to be totalitarian? No, it's a mindset, it's a worldview, it's a goal, it's a will to dominate when it has the chance.
It's what got trump elected.

Faith writes:
I have not said one bigoted or racist thing here ever.
I admit to being a racist. Racism is natural. It's the result of evolution. When a person of colour does something I don't like, my knee-jerk reaction is, "Stupid nigger."
But I don't THINK racist. Rationally, I can overcome my reptilian origins (to some extent). Logically, I decide that the problem isn't him, it's me.
As a dyed-in-the-wool racist, I'm amused when I hear people denying that they're racist. It's just that - denial. They're not upset about BEING racist. They're just upset about being caught.

Is it inevitable that all true Christians will be hated and laughed at before the rapture---as Noah was laughed at?
Noah wasn't laughed at. That's a fundie fiction.

Re: ...
Faith writes:
In the case of Christianity yes it does.
On the contrary, the First Amendment was aimed primarily AT Christians - to prevent one Christian sect from persecuting another. There were few non-Christian religions around at the time (and I have my doubts that the Founding Fathers were much concerned about protecting them).

Re: the Leftist Totalitarian Tactics haven't let up
Faith writes:
Scary to think that we could have a Leftist coup, the overthrow of a legitimately elected President, against the will of half the voting population, based on absolutely nothing.
If Trump falls, it will have to be the Republicans who bring him down. I wonder if they have the guts.

Lots of comments and accusations against Trump and utter silence when it's the Leftists.
There's a difference between a loon with a rifle and a loon with nuclear weapons - and that difference has nothing to do with left or right.

So you justify not protesting an attempted murder because you hate Trump just like the would be murderer did.
I don't hate Trump. I recognize him as a narcissist, a megalomaniac and a compulsive liar.
I don't protest every attempted murder. I don't even consider mass shootings in the US as news. It's just dog bites man.

Can't point out the utterly insanely egregious attacks on Trump and his supporters without being accused of refusing to accept criticism ourselves....
Maybe if you didn't use such insanely egregious hyperbole you'd be taken more seriously. Anybody who says, "there has never been anything before like...." needs to read some history.
