Remember when that bat-sh.t insane woman handcuffed herself to the front doors of Twitter headquarters in New York?

More recently - a bunch of actual American Nazis in Florida waving their flags and wearing their nazi insignia pins and patches doing the heil hitler thing over the underpass to cars driving below (which distracts the drivers and can cause car accidents).

Or nazis in Florida yelling at the crowds that "Jews will not replace us" - basically terrorizing passersby.

Yes it's definitely getting worse. And the government is "standing by" while it happens.

Villagers mount an annual protest in mid December when the winter Championship golf green fees are announced.

What about it? If you are talking about breaking into the Capitol building, the law was broken in that case.

That’s not a party that’s some whack jobs that went too far and they are not representative of an entire party. Many examples could be provided for the other party’s bad behavior as well if that’s your position. Fact is that most people in this country are middle of the roaders, but a candidate doesn’t exist for us leaving us with far left and right wackos on both sides of aisle. God help us all given the two fools that are currently running! We as a country deserve better 😢

My take on the situation would be anyone who glues themselves to the floor or ground(deserves fire ants) those little suckers hurt but won't kill ya.

We have laws for a good reason. When they are broken the people doing so should be punished.

And it has been a great success, crime is way up and arrests are way down

Who each will fly home on their private jets without a clue the protest was about them

Think you have it backwards but in any case does not work out for anyone other than criminals

How is impacting others helping your cause ? ****ing people off does not help you.

You may have seen these nuts on your news sources. Throwing paint and stuff on museum paintings. Barricading roads. Protests. AND… gluing hands and feet etc to roads or floors.

Current example at the US Open tennis tournament in NY last night. A 40 minute delay due to protesters in the stands screaming etc. 4 idiots. One actually glued their feet to the floor. So play disrupted due to these out of control crazies.

What do they accomplish? And who funds these nut jobs. OK protest to your hearts content but do NOT impact others.

If I was in charge last night, kick the 3 out of the stadium as they did. And leave the glued-feet nut job right there all night. Sweep the floor around them. Bye bye. Idiots.

I totally agree with everything you're saying but this is not isolated to climate change activist. In the past few years, we have seen the defacing of synagogues, office holders and judges being threatened and not only themselves, but also their children. This country better get a grip, because if we don't this is going to become worst. I'm getting to believe this is not going to stop until we start seeing bodies buried.
