Sorry, AOC — protest culture is un-American

The “right of the people to peaceably assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances” is our inheritance.

Correct. The constitution does not say “to protest”. Just as it does not say “separation of church from the state.

The violent agitators in support of criminal aliens don’t have a right to agitate, obstruct law enforcement, impinge on business or disturb fellow citizens peaceful enjoyment.

That is the biggest Democrat and media enabler lie and false narrative.

Sorry, AOC — protest culture is un-American

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez likes to argue that the “whole point” of protesting is to make people “uncomfortable.”

In this as in so much else, the Democratic darling is incorrect.

Debate, dissent, running highly misleading political ads on TV: These are all part of our great tradition of political discourse.

Taking to the streets to disrupt the lives of average citizens is a leftist ideal, not an American one.

It’s antithetical to the highest virtue of republicanism, namely minding your own business.

But decades ago American leftists began conflating “activism” with patriotism, and millions of young people were convinced that protesting is an expression of good citizenry.

These days, caring is often given more reverence than wisdom, knowledge or achievement, let alone patriotic activities like working, getting married and raising kids.

An equally intolerable and parallel notion has also sprung up: It says the rest of us have a patriotic duty to admire anyone who’s “making a difference” or engaged in “participatory democracy,” no matter how insufferable or wrong they are.

And protesters are almost always insufferable and wrong.

Every loudmouth ignoramus with an opinion has a First Amendment right. You’re not special.

Yet modern left-wing protesters believe their passion and anger imbue them with moral license to demand things and speak over their fellow citizens.

Just watch the video of those self-righteous “activists” disrupting church services in St. Paul the other day, or global-warming cultists shutting down traffic in major cities, or college students using their heckler’s veto to disrupt speeches and debates.

As we’ve seen with two recent shootings in Minneapolis, protest culture can have deadly consequences.

Then again, most of these efforts aren’t organic or spontaneous expressions of political anger anymore.

They are well-funded and well-managed by organizations that see political benefit in creating chaos and turning our country into a revolutionary battleground.

From Lenin to Alinsky, forced confrontation has been a tactic of Marxist activism.

Every bully, of course, sees themselves as the embodiment of MLK Jr., though most of them lack dignity and a worthy cause.

It’s amusing hearing these self-aggrandizing activists treat protests as great acts of bravery.

But wake up: You’re not actually living in a fascist state.

Those marching against the clerics in Iran risk their lives.


Tell this to our founders who climbed onto the Kings ship in a Boston harbor and threw tea overboard
 
Claiming you don't have enough info makes you a useless fucking pussy.
How so? In the case of Good, it seems excessive.
They were "ICE warriors" which no doubt impressed all their little friends.
Okay? So? The MAGA rioters were Trump's warriors. No doubt impressed people like you.
Their purpose was to interfere with the business of the federal govt just like ashli babbitt according to you.
The MAGA rioters' purpose was to interfere with government business.

Why are we even talking about this? The topic is about @Truth Detector's retarded claim about AOC and protest.
 




The Boston Tea Party was an act of protest on December 16, 1773 during the American Revolution. Initiated by the Sons of Liberty in Boston, the capital of Massachusetts, one of the Thirteen Colonies of British America, it escalated hostilities between Great Britain and the Patriots, who opposed British policy towards its American colonies. Less than two years later, on April 19, 1775, the Battles of Lexington and Concord, also in Massachusetts, launched the eight-year American Revolutionary War, which resulted in the independence of the colonies as the United States.

Her gunning the vehicle at an agent while obstructing Federal Officers and refusing their lawful order? Yes, she was extreme. She was also extremely stupid and gullible, like you halfwit.

Okay? So? The MAGA rioters were Trump's warriors. No doubt impressed people like you.

There you go with those stupid strawmen. No one made that claim you unserious serial lying thread troll.

It is ironic that the same morons who had no issues with an unarmed Ashli getting shot, suddenly want to defend dangerous rioters getting shot.

The MAGA rioters' purpose was to interfere with government business.

Wrong. Most were there just to make their voices heard and petitiion their government. A small group got out of hand and were properly arrested.

Yet idiots like you who suddenly rant and whine about violent protestors getting shot didn't give a shit when it was an unarmed Ashli Babbit; why is that? That was rhetorical; its because you are a serial lying hypocrite on steroids.

Why are we even talking about this? The topic is about @Truth Detector's retarded claim about AOC and protest.

:lolup: Brainless thread trolling asshat still doesn't know what the topic is about. :laugh"
 
Okay what do people do when they peacably assemble? Sitting around with thumbs up their asses?
They petition their representatives or hold forums to discuss and debate. They don't attack police, threaten police, burn buildings, stop traffic, impinge on local businesses, etc etc etc.

I am hardly surprised you're still too stupid to comprehend the obvious. :palm:
