MLK and Gandhi both promoted non violent opposition because they realized you can’t convince anyone of anything if you make it easy to muddy the waters with “they’re also bad!”

after Trump put Neo-Nazis on the same moral level as people who despise Neo-Nazis
Restricting movement is restricting movement. No matter how you slice it.
Blocking traffic is not peaceful protest. In fact it is a forceful violation of the drivers’ right to freedom of movement, which ironically is a practice that Nazi Germany and the Warsaw Pact Nations both participated in. Which is why after WWII, the United Nations thought it was important enough to enshrine in the…
Um, sorry, but no. Just because I am not “with you” and agree with your viewpoint, it does *NOT* mean I am “with them”. That’s the problem with this fucking country. Quit with the polarization and sorting people as “the other” just because the disagree with what you think.
Fucking Orwellian 1984 bullshit, is what…
Do you know what would have happened if there wasn’t a counter-protest? The Klan would have had their shitty little rally, called it a day, gone home, and then the statue would have been removed at some point. That’s it. That’s all that would have happened.
This is all about generating outrage, fear and division. It is working and we are all losing.
Honest question but... if someone is calling this a ‘war’, isnt that just giving credence to the nationalist/racist/Nazi agenda?
Last January, everybody (including Gawker sites) had their fun laughing at “it’s ok to punch a NAZI”, not really interested in or caring about the possibility that political violence begets political violence.
This article just demonstrates *WHY* Trump said there was blame on both sides, because the headline of this piece is right on...*THEY* came for a fight. In this case, BOTH SIDES are “They”.
Can you make Lanesplitter awesome again and not just post crash videos?
Another last question. I can’t help but notice a lack of articles from Mrs Schrader. Is she still with us or on vacation? I see that her Kinja profile says editor now. Has she moved from writing to editing? I hope she will return to writing more actively.
Alright. I will ask an actual serious question. I noticed that Foxtrot Alpha has gotten a little thin lately and it seems that Mr Starr has moved over to The Root. It’s a fine move I think and I wish everyone the best. I always have seen Mr Starr as a good political journalist and essayist who was trying to fit in as…
Do you condone this type of hate speech by your authors? Is this the widely held opinion of the staff of Jalopnik and Foxtrot Alpha?
Can I just point out that none of the states closest to North Korea (except Alaska, but nobody’s going to bomb Alaska) voted for Trump? Why can’t he pick a fight with an enemy off the Eastern seaboard so that at least he’s in the kill zone

I’m talking about the full-time 4wd in XJs and Grand Cherokees. Depending on age it uses either a hydraulically-actuated clutch pack center differential, or a computer-controlled one. My personal favorite is Quadra-Drive on the WJ Grand Cherokee where all three differentials are relatively simple but effective…
If I was in the market for a couple of 747's I’d definitely take a look at those two. It seems like a smart business decision to me.
It’s completely misleading to call these “old Jets from Russia.” Misleading to the point of objective dishonesty.
This isn’t honest journalism. This is how EVERY car company shows cars avaialbe at X price. Bad headline is bad.
