    Lol some clown is removing my comments as “uncivil” in posts

    Violence is the only way that rights and freedoms have ever been secured. It has NEVER happened by voting

    Can’t disagree with this more.

    Advocating for violence is wrong, and that’s probably why you keep getting your comments removed.

    In fact I’ll go so far as to say that if we rely on violence every time to resolve issues then there’ll be nothing left but cockroaches and dolphins looking around wondering “What the fuck happened here?!”

      Well to be fair, he didn’t say which side would be committing the violence. One analysis of the civil rights movement is that is was successful because it provoked violence by the oppressors while cameras were present.

        I speak towards violence of any kind, from either side. Self-defense notwithstanding.

      You can “disagree” all you want but history isnt going to change to fit your rosy-glassed worldview. Everything good you have-especially as a US citizen- is the result of violence and nothing else. As long as you lay down and think you can get power to give into you because you begged harder, nothing at all will ever change.
