    Kpop I see you are getting a lot of your information from The Blaze and Glenn Beck.

    The entire country was having well publicized marches to demand Trump release his taxes. The white nationalist groups that showed up in Berkeley were there because they knew they would find a fight.

    So at what point is it free speech vs fake bs? I mean just how much are we supposed to legitimize nonsense? Where is the line drawn? So every ridiculous opportunist gets to be on the same stage as serious speakers? Isn't that just exactly a big part of our problem right now? Fake news given the same consideration as actual facts??

    I do not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it.

    I will explain it to you simply. By allowing someone to express themselves, even it's hateful, you are not legitimizing anything! Hate speech is protected by the 1st amendment. Threats of violence are where you draw the line. It's not that complicated.

    You should watch the Dave Rubin video I posted. They were taking questions at a college and one came from a holocaust denier. They didn't go into the audience, hit them over the head and drag them out, no they debunked this complete nonsense. Honestly, the majority of people do not give any credit to white nationalists, or other wackos. Silence them doesn't mean winning.

    BWAHAHAH! Glenn Beck? Glenn Beck is a raving lunatic! The guy wears his magic underwear too tight or something, cause something isn't right with that dude. But nice try, tho. As I said, you don't know who we are.

    The white nationalist groups that showed up in Berkeley were there because they knew they would find a fight.

    Lions and tigers and white nationalists! OH MY!

    Nope. Did you watch the feeds last night from Berkeley? So many "white nationalists!" (Shhhh don't tell anybody but they really black and Latino and Asian!) Imagine that! "White nationalists" protecting blacks and Latinos and Asians...

    Oh and let's put the whole Oath Keepers are "white nationalists" to rest as well.

    At every Trump rally, I've seen many different races, many LGBT, lots of women, lots of peaceful people getting along until the agent provocateurs named Antifa come out with their violence.

    But wait, I thought Antifa is peaceful...

    The groups that showed up and rioted were not white nationalists, they were antifa leftist thugs.

    None of those things follow:

    We don't "legitimize" nonsense, we expose it.

    No one has the right to someone else's stage or platform (either to put someone on it or to decide who can't be on it).

    The problem with restricting free-speech is it also restricts the ability of people to expose the BS. That's why having lobsided laws such as M103 ins support of Islamophilia is so pernicious - they will be able to preach their hateful nonsense but anyone who tries to refute it will be deemed criminal. It's designed to silence critics and that is never a good thing.

    It's better to live with the nuts and their hate speech than suffer the restrictions on our own speech.

    I think it may be time for the CDC to issue a pandemic warning for the brain virus attacking millions of people worldwide.

    When you choose censorship as your substantive argument, you lose the debate.

    That is not an alt-right, neo-nazi, white nationalists, fox news, kkk problem. It's a far left problem and even the most liberal of liberals are saying that about AntiFa, not about white nationalists.

    I don't think that will be proper to put the pictures here, please run a search under Venus Rosealma and you will be shocked with the other side of "that nice little girl" that was flattened at Berkeley.
