    Get over it, MT. Report 'em to the gazpacho and go back to doing the job that your constituents in their wisdom elected you to do.

    Success is measured by your discipline and inner peace. – Mike Ditka

      If it was isolated, you'd be right.

      It's not isolated.

        I don’t think she simply has different political views.

        Attacking her clearly isn’t ok, but she’s a fucking nut job, not just part of the loyal opposition.

        I was only joking

          That doesn't make any difference, does it?

          I think Biden is a senile twat. Maybe it's ok to slap him upside the head in his favorite ice cream parlor?

          No. There is no equivocation, there's no justification you can make that allows for the promotion of such boorish behavior. Send her a letter or email that takes the hide off of her? Fine. Lambast her on the floor of the house? Have at it.

          But don't attack people for their political views in everyday circumstances. No matter what party.

          At one time in my state, political passions were so high, that men walked the streets of New Orleans openly carrying submachine guns. I don't think we want to go back to that...

            I couldn't have been any clearer. I said right there that attacking her clearly wasn't ok.

            That doesn't mean that she isn't part of the problem. It's like Ann Coulter complaining about her hate mail and threats, when all she does is spew hatred herself. It's still not OK to send her hate mail or threaten her, but she's at least partially to blame for what she gets.

            And yes, the same goes for Ilhan Omar or whoever you might choose to name on the left. It's not ok to threaten her, but she's part of the problem.

              Don't you think that liberal insanity helps create the MTGs, though? The more antagonistic one side is, the more the other group is going to want anyone but that side running things. And when you push people enough, the more the crazies on the opposite side look appealing. When the game becomes bullshit, people want to flip the board over any way they can.

              You'd obviously have crazies either way, but they'd have much less agency if the other side didn't fetishize condemnation. Liberals share some part of the blame for MTG in my opinion.

              Please love yourself.

                Sure, we can all accept some of the blame. The idea that it's all one side at fault is the one that is bullshit. Until people on both sides hold their own side to a higher standard rather than just point the finger at the other team, none of this is going to change.

                It doesn't really matter who started it. Stopping it is what's important.

                        I don’t think she simply has different political views.

                        Attacking her clearly isn’t ok, but she’s a fucking nut job, not just part of the loyal opposition.

                        That doesn't make any difference, does it?

                        I think Biden is a senile twat. Maybe it's ok to slap him upside the head in his favorite ice cream parlor?

                        I couldn't have been any clearer. I said right there that attacking her clearly wasn't ok.

                        That doesn't mean that she isn't part of the problem. It's like Ann Coulter complaining about her hate mail and threats, when all she does is spew hatred herself. It's still not OK to send her hate mail or threaten her, but she's at least partially to blame for what she gets.

                        And yes, the same goes for Ilhan Omar or whoever you might choose to name on the left. It's not ok to threaten her, but she's part of the problem.

                        Don't you think that liberal insanity helps create the MTGs, though? The more antagonistic one side is, the more the other group is going to want anyone but that side running things. And when you push people enough, the more the crazies on the opposite side look appealing. When the game becomes bullshit, people want to flip the board over any way they can.

                        You'd obviously have crazies either way, but they'd have much less agency if the other side didn't fetishize condemnation. Liberals share some part of the blame for MTG in my opinion.

                        Sure, we can all accept some of the blame. The idea that it's all one side at fault is the one that is bullshit. Until people on both sides hold their own side to a higher standard rather than just point the finger at the other team, none of this is going to change.

                        It doesn't really matter who started it. Stopping it is what's important.

                          There are no shortage of examples of right wing violence. All those assholes on January 6th, and Soloman Pena did more than deny dinner service. Yeah, I know, that was all the FBI's fault. Maybe you can blame Fauci while you're at it.

                          Speaking of Fauci, how many death threats do you suppose he gets?

                                  How many leftist politicians have been attacked, harassed or denied service at dinner?

                                  There are no shortage of examples of right wing violence. All those assholes on January 6th, and Soloman Pena did more than deny dinner service. Yeah, I know, that was all the FBI's fault. Maybe you can blame Fauci while you're at it.

                                  Speaking of Fauci, how many death threats do you suppose he gets?

                                  Your answer pretty much reinforces the point I made. It's real easy to point the finger, looking in the mirror seems to be more difficult.

                                  Noticed you didn't answer the question.

                                    I don’t think she simply has different political views.

                                    Attacking her clearly isn’t ok, but she’s a fucking nut job, not just part of the loyal opposition.

                                    That doesn't make any difference, does it?

                                    I think Biden is a senile twat. Maybe it's ok to slap him upside the head in his favorite ice cream parlor?

                                    I couldn't have been any clearer. I said right there that attacking her clearly wasn't ok.

                                    That doesn't mean that she isn't part of the problem. It's like Ann Coulter complaining about her hate mail and threats, when all she does is spew hatred herself. It's still not OK to send her hate mail or threaten her, but she's at least partially to blame for what she gets.

                                    And yes, the same goes for Ilhan Omar or whoever you might choose to name on the left. It's not ok to threaten her, but she's part of the problem.

                                    Don't you think that liberal insanity helps create the MTGs, though? The more antagonistic one side is, the more the other group is going to want anyone but that side running things. And when you push people enough, the more the crazies on the opposite side look appealing. When the game becomes bullshit, people want to flip the board over any way they can.

                                    You'd obviously have crazies either way, but they'd have much less agency if the other side didn't fetishize condemnation. Liberals share some part of the blame for MTG in my opinion.

                                    IOW, this is how you get more Trump…

                                    And MTG and Trump are how you get more liberal insanity. The shit flows both ways.

                                    No, it’s not quite that simple. This goes back well over 20 years. The shit has been escalating from the left for decades. The earliest I remember off the top of my head was Newt Gingrich having trouble getting service in the 90’s. Bush Jr. and his administration were called the worst war criminals since Hitler. When McCain became the head of the party, he was even worse! Romney? Dog endangering Hitler… So finally some of the shit starts to flow back the other way and NOW we’re concerned?

                                    Fine, it's all the left's fault. Happy?

                                    Now, how do you fix the current situation where Republican Presidents lie about election fraud, and his followers attack the Capitol Building?

                                        I don’t think she simply has different political views.

                                        Attacking her clearly isn’t ok, but she’s a fucking nut job, not just part of the loyal opposition.

                                        That doesn't make any difference, does it?

                                        I think Biden is a senile twat. Maybe it's ok to slap him upside the head in his favorite ice cream parlor?

                                        I couldn't have been any clearer. I said right there that attacking her clearly wasn't ok.

                                        That doesn't mean that she isn't part of the problem. It's like Ann Coulter complaining about her hate mail and threats, when all she does is spew hatred herself. It's still not OK to send her hate mail or threaten her, but she's at least partially to blame for what she gets.

                                        And yes, the same goes for Ilhan Omar or whoever you might choose to name on the left. It's not ok to threaten her, but she's part of the problem.

                                        Don't you think that liberal insanity helps create the MTGs, though? The more antagonistic one side is, the more the other group is going to want anyone but that side running things. And when you push people enough, the more the crazies on the opposite side look appealing. When the game becomes bullshit, people want to flip the board over any way they can.

                                        You'd obviously have crazies either way, but they'd have much less agency if the other side didn't fetishize condemnation. Liberals share some part of the blame for MTG in my opinion.

                                        IOW, this is how you get more Trump…

                                        And MTG and Trump are how you get more liberal insanity. The shit flows both ways.

                                        No, it’s not quite that simple. This goes back well over 20 years. The shit has been escalating from the left for decades. The earliest I remember off the top of my head was Newt Gingrich having trouble getting service in the 90’s. Bush Jr. and his administration were called the worst war criminals since Hitler. When McCain became the head of the party, he was even worse! Romney? Dog endangering Hitler… So finally some of the shit starts to flow back the other way and NOW we’re concerned?

                                        Fine, it's all the left's fault. Happy?

                                        Now, how do you fix the current situation where Republican Presidents lie about election fraud, and his followers attack the Capitol Building?

                                        I don't think Trump lied. I believe he thought there was election fraud. I believe he still thinks so. I do believe he was going to use every legal means possible to slow down or stop what he thought was a miscarriage of election law.

                                        Part of the process was bringing political pressure to bear. Trump was happy for his supporters to protest at the Capitol. At no time did he urge them to violence. In fact, he specifically told them to protest peacefully.

                                        I have never heard Trump or any pol on the right, advocate getting in people's faces at dinner, at church or in public places. I've never seen them try to organize regular citizens to harass other citizens in their normal life. If you know of any cases, please let me know.

                                        Did Trump's administration think there might be some trouble on January 6? I think possibly so. If not, they wouldn't have offered troops to Pelosi.

                                        If you're going to make the argument both sides are equally bad, you need to provide some proof.
