The Trouble with Liberals

By Joe_Bakanovic

I think this says it pretty well:

And these stories are just three of many that have been in the news recently that illustrate it:

Brooklyn bodega clerk is slashed in the face after telling thug he couldn’t use food stamps to buy beer

Protester spits on Romney supporter in Wisconsin

Family Research Center Shooter Volunteered for LGBT Community Center

Now, let me challenge you to find as many equivalent stories about the right attacking those on the left for not agreeing with their beliefs.  They are there, but you’ll be hard pressed to find as many because they are nowhere near as common and for good reason: the right does not believe opposing opinions threaten the survival of mankind where the left does.  The fact that you will have to go look for stories about the right attacking the left over a difference of opinions given the decidedly left-wing bent of the legacy media is evidence in itself that this is — in fact — based in truth.  But you’ll have to decide for yourself.  Just keep in mind, two of these stories are from today’s headlines, all of them are from this week.  How many right-wingers attacked the leftists in that same time frame???

  1. Uh, I think there are plenty of abortion clinic bombers and domestic terrorists like Timothy McVeigh that might beg to differ with you. You are making an absurd fallacious argument, but you already knew that.

    • No, I acknowledged those. I said the frequency of occurrence between the two ideologies is far out of balance for their respective percentages of the population.

      But you ignored that because, if you hadn’t, you couldn’t have just made your assertion. THAT is the fallacy, CCF. It’s called straw man.

  2. Quick poll of all lefties on this site. Who thinks black can voice whatever loony pseudo-intellectual ideas without also believing we have to defeat his lame, inflammatory arguments with violence? Melf and James. Are you itching to cut him with a razor and planning to do it anytime soon, or maybe bomb an RNC headquarters? It must be nice to read a single days headlines from select publications and to be able to precicesly define everyone’s ideology and to project that to millions of people for all time. Good work black. Unfortunately because i am a lefty I fear I must deliver unto you a good walloping or the leftist hive collective would never let me plug back in. Sorry ’bout that, but rules is rules.

  3. Oh my. I hope my language didn’t bruise you too much there, Black. I know how fragile your kind can be. Apparently just a little spit can kill a conservative so i will have to be more careful where I spit so as not to end your kinds life accidentally and be called an out of control liberal. Interesting thing i saw on my facebook page from a local recent incident involving more of the Terry Nichols, sovereign citizens crew.

    Your people, at least in spirit and thought if not in deed, I’d imagine.

    FYI, This was just a few miles from me yesterday.

    But back to your serious stories, I must have missed the part where the foodstamp guy was Biden. . . He has been acting a little goofy these days so i won’t rule him out, i just must have missed that part. :)

    Can you please explain how a random criminal is an ideological peer and representative, and where he was assaulting the clerk because of his radical conservative beliefs?

    Also, i need more deaths, please. As far as i can tell, both of your victims survived. I gave you some dead and seriously wounded cops fighting conservative separatists a few miles from me. Surely you can do better than this? I mean, we’re out of control hunting you down with our giant acidic spit cannons. Gimmie something! Walk outside and just snap a photo of a rainbow clad fancy pants beating Rush Limbaugh to death. That must happen, like 1000 times a day. I’d pay big bucks for that.

  4. a couple of those were duplicates, not really many deaths. I saw the FRC earlier actually, was curious if you’d find it. :) some of those are actually just op-ed pieces. I could deluge you with thousands of similiar stories but what would it prove really? The FRC is probably your only decent one of the lot, but i would maintain that anyone who claimed to be a liberal but sought out violence to achieve their goals is not a liberal. Liberals value human life and quality of life and freedom of speach. I do not claim the people you identify as liberals and their actions would illustrate that they don’t understand the underlying philisophy.

    I’ve heard Anne Coulter say she is opposed to free speach, if it is liberals, and the rights of women to vote because they vote “wrong.”

    I’ve seen Pat Robertson call for us to assassinate Hugo Chavez and other leaders he disagreed with that aren’t even in our country.

    Do you claim those figures as Conservatives?

  5. So then you agree CCF…most of the people you associate with as liberals are in reality, a bunch of communist sympathizers who don’t have the best interests of our country at heart. Pat Robertson and Ann Coulter have the same listenership as Sole dad O’Brien of CNN.

    • That makes no sense nor does it address my question. How could you know who I.associate with liberals, you never asked. I did ask about 2 prominent conservatives expressing the sentiment associated in the post with liberals, which i adddressed, and i got a random Communist sympathizers remark. You can do better.

  6. Everyone’s silence and deflection speaks volumes. My point is violence and hate are not trademarks of liberals, certainly not unique to them. Continue to provide annecdotal evidence and repeat the same stories over and over. I just realized the FRC shooter ones that black posted later, his only actual politically motivated accounts that didnt involve a saliva bombardment, was already listed in his intro. So basically all you have a few talking heads blathering on about your latest deflection attempt by the blame stream media to try and palm all violence and dissent in society at the feet of those who disagree with you while ignoring and pardoning your own.

    If that’s all you have, if you are not capable of actual admission of partial responsiblity, violence and lack of civility and compromise, you should expect to see much more violence. No one is going to sit still and be labled inherently evil and attacked with bombs and assault rifles instead of engaging in dialogue and compromise. The party of No and “my way or the highway” should not be surprised when others decide to stop trying to engage in dialogue and compromise and resort to the tactics they themselves perfected.

    Pay attention to what’s going on in Syria, it’s a prelude for what we are in for if this intransigence and state of denial continues.

    • “Our” silence meant nothing.

      We were merely ignoring you out of respect, since you earned it with your “big brother” comments.

    • NO, I think the silence comes from being wise enough to leave you alone. You, James, Greg: you’ve all demonstrated that you’ve no interest in an actually discussion, nor even heated but honest debate. You just want to insist on your views and then cry foul when you perceive that “the other side” isn’t giving them what you consider to be due consideration. We’ve all noticed that it tends to be the other way around, as evidenced by how many questions you insist others answer and how few you answer in return.

      Now, as to the point in question. If you’d rather, we’ll use the more encompassing descriptor of “unconstrained view of human nature” (you can look that one up in the RNL archives). It just happens that most “Liberals” hold this view. Unfortunately for your arguemtn, it also happens that those with an “unconstrained” view of human nature do — as a general rule — hold that they have a superior moral “view” or “understanding” which imparts a moral imperative on them to “save us all from ourselves.” From there, given that these people who hold this view believe they are saving all of mankind, the tendency to think it is OK to “break a few eggs” naturally follows.

      Happy now?

      • Not really. I think i do answer questions and get very few, if any answered. You sound like you are trying to use big words to make yourself seem educated and informed, a trick you accuse liberals of using. Many of your tricks are what accuse the “others” of using. You, B3A, are a dishonest person. . . with yourself. I have no need save you nor to respect you. You start from a point of disrespecting me while claiming to be disrespected.
        You are the child that says “infinity whatever you say.”
        You are beyond anyone’s ability to reach because you already know everything.
        Congratulations.
        I’ll have a card printed up for you right away.

        • and there’s the classic ad hominem.

          CCF, for your information, I’ve had to curtail my vociferous vocabulary so as to avoid unnecessary consternation on Kell’s part. Were I to employ it to the fullest extent, I do suspect it would send even you reaching for your dictionary more oft than you’d ever admit. ;-)

          Oh, and as for me being dishonest with myself, if you only knew how far off base you are with that, you’d Gibbs-slap yourself and save me the trouble.

          • Lol. I’m a technical writer and lazy wannabe novelist.

            My word know stuff be plenty um big.

            Just because you know words like “vociferous” doesn’t mean you know how to use them properly.

            Definition of VOCIFEROUS
            : marked by or given to vehement insistent outcry

            Nevertheless, it is amusing you would confuse the use of that word, my hominid, because i think it is closer to the truth than what you intended.

            I think Kells can keep up just fine, but anyone who is in the commincation biz knows communicating is not about using the biggest and baddest words, but the simplest and most direct and precise language.

              • “Not really. I think i do answer questions and get very few, if any answered.”

                Allow me to correct this statement for CCF:

                “Not really. I think i do answer questions and get very few, if any answered that I can accept so I will just keep pointing out that you do not answer my questions until I force you to see my point of view.”

                Fixed.

    • “Everyone’s silence and deflection speaks volumes. My point is violence and hate are not trademarks of liberals”

      Hey Ding-Dong … ::: knock knock :::: If you had enough sense to scroll up, I gave you more than enough answers to prove to you that a) – I wasn’t being silent, b) – I did not deflect, and c) hate and class warfare is a hallmark of this administration.

      Now toodle along. You have a problem running with the big kids.

  7. I’m your huckleberry.

    I’m very happy for the party of No. First off, these dumbasses need a budget. Gosh isn’t that in the Constitution? Um, I’ll be a good little girl and check…(plays muzak) Nope, it’s not. But I did find this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budget_and_Accounting_Act_of_1921
    Oh, and this:
    http://budget.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=252148

    Oh, dear! I gone off on a tangent. Syria? Do we really want to get in to Syria? I think one of Augger’s posts of a woman being shot would kinda cover that. (No burning toast or driving in them thar parts!……at least if you’re a chick.) They would hate me.

    The boys speak quite often of what we are in for….I just believe you believe it is for different reasons. It is interesting, because we have military bases all over the world, but for some strange reason, you just never seem to read a story on the Italian nuns blowing up a local market place with 50 innocent folks around. (Guess the PIIGS like like our Mickey Mouse money more than the Arabs.)

    But please tell me why the hello we give these other jerkasaureses our money. Please tell me why Muslim children who have assimilated into a western form of lifestyle are being murdered by their own parents who do not want them to do so. Do you know, there was actually a child that ran away and came to Orlando? (I’m in FL., and I can assure you she wasn’t seeking Mickey Mouse.)

    Perhaps I’m viewing everything askewed. I think everybody just needs a bit of Disney! Yes, that’s it! I tell you, none of my Muslim friends here are nutty, but they’ve all been to the Magic Kingdom! See! Were the US to build Disney over there, it would change everything! Well, so long as they didn’t blow it up……

    • Kells,

      Read the Qur’an and the Hadith. It is permissible for Muslim to kill Muslim, and Allah may even forgive the murderer and both find their way to heaven. In some cases, it is even commanded for Muslim to kill Muslim. I have tried to explain it, and you’re rejected my attempts: stopping just short of telling me I am a hater when all I am doing is trying to explain what their holy books really say. Now, I think the only way you’ll understand and accept it is to either read the books, or go live in an Islamic country for a while.

        • If you would just turn off the object-o-matic of yours and listen to me for a change, you might learn that I have nothing against individuals — just the teachings of Islam.

          Tell you what: ask your friends two questions and make them answer you yes or no to both.

          1 — Did Muhammad kill the desert or Arabian Jews.

          2 — Do you believe in the Mahdi?

          Let us know what they say. And, Kells, if they will not answer yes or no without a lot of hem-hawing around…well, be VERY careful about how far you trust your “friends.”

          • Um, ring a ding ding! The desert is still hanging around! How in the hello does one go about killing a desert? I suppose if we got a crapload of ice from Antarctica or something…..

            B. you’re soundin as nutty as that Members-Only-jacket-wearin- Ahmadinejad-it’s-the-fad king, er, president. Yeah, baby…..groovy…I’ll have my online shop open before long so we can outfit you, dumpling.

            • The Muslims refer to them as the “desert Jews,” or sometimes the “Arabian Jews.”

              But it’s OK. I see you are no more interested in a serious or civil discussion that CCF. Go ahead, crack some more ad hominem comments and post another distracting video clip to some movie or song and tell yourself you’ve made a point. I’ve seen more than enough and have filed you in the drawer with James and CCF. And yes, I am quite sure you’ll be happy to be there — and that you’ll tell me so.

  8. Gotcha. I was givng you the benefit of the doubt on your meaning rather than your vocabulary. Apparently you know you are a cry baby. . . and are proud of it. Congratulations.
