8. I wouldn't be so quick to judge. Yeah, I'm generally opposed to |
|
violence, but this business of playing pissypant pansyprotesters isn't getting us anywhere either. Same problem with the dems not going for the jugular, worrying too much about "my goodness, what will people think?"
Maybe it's about time people DO start to think.

22. Yeah, trashing a McDonald's is the same as storming the Bastille. |
|
Busting up Mayor McCheese's Playland sure takes guts.

15. Some of those "playing pissypant pansyprotesters" are infants |
|
(really pissypants) and children.
I propose all the macho dickhead "we need balls who's got 'em" types form their own party (or join forces with the dittoheads) and leave the rest of us out of their bullshit fantasies.
Violence is the problem, not the answer.
YOU CAN'T OUTBULLY THE BULLIES. Mutual assured destruction is NOT a solution.

17. take your own advice...macho dickhead and bullshit fantasies |
|
are pretty hefty forms of verbal assault if you ask me, and a demonstration like that one is certainly big enough for there to be an "infants only" section.
Nor did I condone the violence, just said we might not want to be so quick to judge.
If a handful of protesters feel its appropriate to engage in vandalizing property...who the fuck cares really?
It's not something I'm going to get my self-righteous undies in a bundle over.

Edgy edgy.
