At long last, will Democratic politicians stop playing nice?

1. At some point, we are going to have to fight back.

The reality is that they are going to kill us all if they can.

3. I'm reminded of the Charlie Kirk event where the young man asked, "When can we use the guns."

He meant on us. Democrats, libs, minorities, anyone they disagree with. I'm sure I have family members who feel the same way.

5. Yes Dems, Libs, Women, POC, LGBT. All have been demonized by the PutinGOP.

And are seen as mortal enemies.

2. Both my democratic senators have voted for multiple Trump noms.

Cory Booker gave that incredible hours long speech & then voted for Charles Kushner, Jared Kushner's dad & convicted felon, for ambassador to France. WTF? What part of you never work with fascists don't they understand?

4. 100% Agree

9. It's frustrating

6. "Haven't they gotten the message YET?"

What ‘message’ is that; what constitutes ‘nice.’

If ‘nice’ means following the rule of law, defending democracy, respecting the decisions of the courts, and protecting the rights of gay and transgender Americans, women, Americans of color, and immigrants – then Democrats should continue to ‘play nice.’

What isn’t acceptable is that Democrats should lower themselves into the sewer with Republicans, become hateful racists and bigots like Republicans, engage in lies and demagoguery like Republicans, and resort to political violence like Republicans.

7. Self-defense isn't "lowering"

It's survival.

8. Well we've got Gandhi and MLK on the one hand

and the Weather Underground on the other.

Gandhi and MLK were assassinated and the Weather Underground were killed or imprisoned.

How shall we be asked to sacrifice ourselves to pay the price of our commitment?
