You only need armor if you expect trouble, and you know there will be trouble if you plan to cause it. You also are not armed, and some of them were. > MP> Like using the national stage to claim that conservatives are the biggest > MP> threat to democracy? > That is not violent rhetoric, nor is it what was said.

That is one quote out of a whole speach where he was not so specific in other statements. > I can see how that might be confusing, though. If you believe that all > conservatives are MAGA Republicans, then it could be construed to mean that > all conservatives are a threat. Likewise, if you believe that all > conservatives represent extremism, then it could be construed to mean that > all conservatives are a threat. But neither of those are true. Does it upset you when politicans claim that "muslim extremists" are a threat, even though they qualify it with "extremists"? From past conversations, I am pretty sure it does. Same with "leftist extremists" and "antifa extremists." * SLMR 2.1a * In the end Gravity Wins..
