Slippery slopes are all the rage. They allow people to pretend their irrational fears are really happening, and to convince others to respond accordingly.
When a mob descends on a politician's house a few days after the president tweets that said politician is an "enemy of the people" then something I (quite rationally) fear is already happening.
Sure. A bit similar to how Trump supporters couldn't express themselves out loud for the past four years.

Someone forgot to tell the guys in trucks with Trump flags.
-
We had them in Westchester. They’ve been laying lower since election.
-
I mean they’re no longer visible. The flags aren’t on the trucks any more. I suppose some have conceded and some are in Larry’s camp.
-
We had plenty of them here, too. There's a few people with Trump flags still up. One particularly aggravating woman who was heavily involved with the school and appeared to have a very strong opinion on every conceivable thing you could think of has a number of Trump flags up. Then again, her husband's truck still has Bush stickers on it.

Your right to peacefully protest ends where my property line begins. None of the videos show demonstrators crossing onto private property, and several of them show a rather large police presence.
At Hawley's, the demonstrators were on his property (front porch) and there were, I believe 3 cops keeping that from happening again. When the demonstrators are at your front door, either knocking or pouring (you can believe whom you wish about this), that's threatening.
Good, at least you acknolwedge that some forms of protests at private residences are acceptable, unlike Mik who seem to have taken the position that no protest outside private residence is acceptable and want to mow the protesters down with a “Ma Deuce”, whatever that means.
As for whom to believe on knocking vs. pounding, I believe the video more than I believe the tweet. Afterall, Jolly kept telling us that all politicians lie all the time, but Jolly hasn‘t say that all protesters lie all the time.
I consider people like this untermenchen.
Be careful that you do not defend such behavior vigorously, lest you rate lower than they do.

Peaceful protest outside, OK.
You are a grown man advocating a mob intimidating a woman and her young children in their home.
That is just plain wrong.
You should be ashamed of yourself.
Damn right.
There is nothing that excuses trying to intimidate a woman and her baby alone at home.
If that had been my home and my wife, there would have been yellow tape and chalk outlines.
Shame on you, Jon. I thought better of you...

I think people here (including me) have to start looking at “small” events in isolation and with an independent eye.
Frequent times here, we try and “justify” the behavior or action of one side by saying , “well, I didn’t here you speak up when the other side did it”
Protesting at the door of a Republic congressman = BAD!!
Does not matter if nobody said anything when someone protested at the door of a Democrat congressman.
Still BAD.
Okay, carry on. Lol

Where's your revolutionary spirit, Comrade?

Yeah, that’s what I said to begin with. I don't care who does it for what reason.
