B) If you wanted to kill someone surely drowning them via your CROWDFUNDED SUBMARINE is a pretty fucking stupid way to do it given that, you know, people are going to easily notice it and recover the fucking thing.

McAuliffe needs to demand a full-on DHS\FBI investigation of the organizers and participating groups. This was a premeditated conspiracy to riot.

Apparently the fascists were preparing for all-out war in Charlottesville:

The next 12 months are going to be fascinating, if horrifying.

I, too, hope things return to normal, hidden racism.

I’m surmising that in early September the roof is coming in on this guy. The Manafort warrant, the Mitch McConnell shit talking, the heel walking tough talk on racism....the Republicans are internally processing that they are ready to impeach this asshole and are politely waiting for Mueller to pull it all together in

1) Your right to free speech ends where my nose begins. You can say whatever hurtful shit you want and the law protects you from government retribution.

The right to free speech protects these people against being arrested for expressing their beliefs. It does not protect their jobs and it does not protect them from any consequences other than being arrested.

The companies they work for have freedom of speech too. They chose not to be associated with this asshole.

Your right to privacy (this isn’t a free speech issue, numbnuts) ends when you parade your idiocy in public.

This has nothing to do with free speech. These assholes don’t have a right to a job at a company that doesn’t want to employee them because they’re now a liability. The right to employment is not enshrined in the constitution. They weren’t maced, tear gassed, or shot with rubber bullets at their protest. The

Well the people outing them are just practicing their free speech rights too.

“Why were you fired from your last job?”

As a comparison for my Brit brain. Would this be like a statue of General Cornwallis or maybe Benedict Arnold that was to be removed? Do you think these same people protesting the removal of Confederate statues would do the same for statues of people who fought against American independence?

Fucking cracks me up, what possibly possess you to memorialize the losing side of a civil war that wanted to divide your nation and engender human bondage. Yea lets bronze their assholes for eternity

I would love it if some clever people would make plaques that said that and glued them over the current inscriptions.

Maybe these will go away faster if we start referring to them as “Civil War Participation Trophies.”

While on the outside the LGBT+ community is painted as this shining pillar of unity on the inside it’s incredibly murky.

I think if there’s one thing that LGBT advocacy orgs need to internalize from the way abortion has been treated in our country, it’s that even once we’ve “won”, we cannot stop fighting. I’ve been seeing a lot of gay-marriage-centric orgs shutting down, basically saying, “we won!”
