You asked me a loaded question requiring me to go hunt down the many hundreds of news stories regarding the riots of 2020, and 2022, which you damn well know the existence of already. Hence, Shirly, you must be joking? You know what happened and yeah I can grab a stack of media a mile high describing all of it which also indicates it all came from the left in a near 99999:1 ratio. Why should I go through the trouble of posting stories you already know about?
More to the latter, but not quite. The difference in proportion between the 1 riot of Jan 6, to the nationwide, many hundreds of riots that resulted in 36+ deaths, is minimal at best. The 1 death of Jan 6 happened to be a rioter. It’s not that one was good and the other bad. All bad, but pitting one incident against hundreds.

Wait a minute… Of course 2 wrongs don’t make a right, but WTF are you talking about? Which “wrongs” are the right doing, to which you are referring?
I have a feeling if I just answered the ‘of course not’ answer, there would have been a little surprise trap door.
So which wrongs are the right guilty of right now, say the last coupe of years? And I’ll spot you Jan 6.
Hold on a second yall. I think we are losing track of the big picture, those of us who have been pro-life/ anti-abortion for a very long time… We won! Let’s celebrate. Sure the fight is not over, but this was a significant win. CELEBBRATE!
Watching the left lose it’s ever loving mind is hilarious. Watching them riot is tragic, but predictable. Watching them not get arrested or in any sort of trouble is disturbing because if we did not know, now we do that the wheels of justice only come for those with the “wrong” politics.
Can we continue to trust a system that will only punish one side for acts of violence, disorder and mayhem, while simultaneously letting the left side run rampant with zero arrests or punishment?
If the ‘system’ only works for one side, do we have a system?

The system has to burn at this point imo.
It is too far gone. There is no saving it. The Oligarchy has won in a pool of self-centered apathetic lazy comfortable populace.
What Congress does and has been doing for years while the same people stay in power tells me all I need to know.

I hope your wrong bro. Cause if it has to be rebuilt, there will be a civil war… I don’t see a way around that. And we definately don’t want that, even if you think your side will win, it will be tragic. But I also know you can only push people to a point.

I was referring specifically to abortion attacks. The right has attacked abortion clinics and have killed.
You claimed the left has done more attacks and damage. You made it seem like the right was excused because of that.

You still trust the system?
How can we lose Paul Walker yet politicians never die young?

I don’t see anything other than violence making any real change at this point sadly.
We have passed that point. A few people I have known my entire life that violence repulses them and I never thought would share this view - do as of late.

I agree with this to an extent, but a simple reset wouldn’t be sufficient because you’ll end up back here in no time.

This is the ultimately problem with America. You guys are more interested in seeing the other side lose than to compromise.

How are you going to garner that simple reset exactly?
I honestly do not see a way unless vast swaths of people start all of a sudden thinking very differently and we get the idiocracy style teaching out of schools.

I am sorry but many things there is no compromise on from my standpoint, especially with many on the left. We see far too differently on what fundamental or inalienable rights are.
Thinking they are changeable based on how you feel or to feel “safe” is lunacy and I will not compromise with lunacy.

What I meant was that if you could take over the government and start all over, the constitution you currently have would lead you back here.
I think the problem with government, all over the world, is that is attracts certain types of people. A system is needed where the average working man takes part.
The government is filled with lawyers who were trained to argue their point, not to compromise.
I don’t have a solution, just pointing out the obvious maybe.

I think this is exactly why you have resets and any system only lasts so long.
The majority eventually always end up being run by the select few and those select few become more radical and power hungry over time.

A compromise is always a loss by the conservative position, by definition

“Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.” - Benjamin Franklin
I said it in another thread, but this is the issue in a nutshell.
-Conservatives want things to stay the same; we will call this position an “anchor”.
-Liberals want change; we will call this position the boat.
The boat pulls every day as hard as it can, and occasionally the anchor will budge a little, but will never return to the position it was once in. Before long, the anchor cannot see where it started.
This is when the anchor must be cast again to hold the boat in it’s original position; effectively a ‘reset’.

What is “essential liberty”?
Can you elaborate?
Is this a real question?
We knew the answer to this shit >200 years ago and now it’s lost knowledge.
