He dishonored himself.

Corbell said:
Also, nothing I said was jsutify his actions. Noting that there is a reason for people to be angry, is not the same as saying that being angry gives one a right to commit violence.

A right? No. A reason? Yeah, that's exactly what you were typing in detail.

Corbell said:
To be clear, what this guy did was wrong. He should face arrest and punishment. He seems to have some type of problem controlling himself.

Ah, now you choose to be clear. (y)
 
Corbell said:
No, being angry is not an excuse for violence.

But, it is unrealistic to think thatyou can be such a massive jerk to so many people for so long and not get some blowback.


(clearly speaking of the news media/lefties as a whole, not the lefty poster here in the thread)

Show where that attacked reporter was being "such a massive jerk to so many people for so long".
 
Corbell said:
Think of all the times you dismissed valid concerns from teh right, by calling the person a name, like "Racist".


All that angry and frustration, has been building. YOu did realize that, right? Or did you think that you could just piss all over people and they would just take it forever adn nothing would ever blow back on you?

In other words, you sympathize with the attacker because he's on your side...

No, I sympathize with the attacker, because the media and lefties in general have been such complete shits for so long.

But when someone you label as a leftist does this, you don’t respond like this. You blame it on their hateful politics. But when a Trumpist does it, they are just an asshole. I guess we just have an asshole problem in our country, not a political one.

The guy is an asshole.
We do have an asshole problem in this country. This thread is a stellar example of using a political agenda to paint an entire political movement as wrong by the actions of an asshole who wrongly went after a reporter.

So your defense of a violent racist right wing psychopath is that we were mean to call him racist.

You know that there are plenty of media on the right who have just as complete shits for so long as well. Why is the right so overly sensitive to criticism?

I suppose we'll never see you in a thread about an illegal immigrant committing a crime, right?

Your call is classic Trump grievance politics in violent action.

It is shitty of you to assume that my position is as recent as Trump. I was here before Trump. And I will be here after him.
 
devildavid said:
So then we can be sure you won’t ever blame political leanings for any acts of violence no matter who it come from.

The thread isn't personally about me but I do realize some are trying to politicize the actions of an asshole by painting with the broad brush.
