actually, even with the worst traffic in the country there are still tons of places to live in NOVA and commute to the proposed location.  Thats why NYC was a poor choice.  

Wow man. Violence is never acceptable in a debate. Ever.

Dude, while I agree with you that this kind of activity isn’t acceptable on ether side, there is absolutely no excuse for violence.

“Tonight you’re reminded that we have a voice. Tonight, we remind you that you are not safe either,”  there’s your implied threat  

Yeah the totally have the right to protest but “Tonight you’re reminded that we have a voice. Tonight, we remind you that you are not safe either,” is definitely a threatening statement.

To be real though, they guy wasn’t shot for parking in the wrong space. If things hadn’t gotten physical there’d be no need for a gun to be drawn.

You’ve got some good points, and I agree with a lot of what you’ve said. My concern is that in using language to advocate for violence we alienate that 75%.

Where is violence being used by the far right other than one specific case in Charlotte?

With that mentality you justify wholesale violence on behalf of your political view. There is no oppressor here, you have a vote in your local, state and federal elections (assuming you’re a US citizen). I will 1000% agree that what this administration is doing is wrong and should be addressed.

I’m almost certain I was quoting someone else, but I completely agree with your post, and to be clear- its absolutely what I advocate for!

So you’re back to wanting to play speed cop. And you do that by obstructing the lane that you deem goes too fast.

Ok sure, I’ll hummer you, I’m sure there is a specific situation where someone behind you will have to wait for you to pass the car (notice I said car and not CARS like you’ve continued to use) and get safely over into the right lane. No one is advocating for you to pit maneuver someone out of the right lane to make

“I want to see one pro-speed guy post “okay yeah I will slow down and wait for a person to finish passing the row of slow cars because after all they are doing 10mph over the speed limit and passing each car in the row quickly”.”

‘That simply by accelerating up someone’s ass, they HAVE to move across, ALWAYS, and NO MATTER WHAT.” Well blanket statements are about as useful as tits on a dude, but when the law is written as “slower traffic keep right” then yes.  

“The concession I’m looking for, is for the speeder to unclench their jaw and chill the fuck out while the person in front of them completes passing as many cars as they want in a reasonable amount of time.” No you’re saying that you feel someone who’s going slightly faster than those in the right lane should be able

Man, you’re really pushing this huh?

“Of COURSE I won’t pull out to deliberately “block” a speeder like some kind of vigilante.” No, you’re just saying that you’ll do that if someone comes up behind you while you’re trying to pass someone. So yes, in fact you are acting like a vigilante. 

And you sound like one of those people who demands everyone bow to your judgment. If someone runs up on you while you’re passing then once you finish passing you GET OVER because you’re causing an obstruction.

As a current Virginian, I can attest that this state is the FUCKING worst at the following:

And if that person gets a fine its no concern of yours. If you want to control the speed that people drive, go apply for your local police force and put on a uniform. Otherwise, move over when someone faster comes along and wait until the lane is clear to pull out and pass someone in front of you.
