Why is violence and property damage associated with Left Wing protests?

Excellent Question !!!

Right Wing protestors use facts, statistics + logic to make points which frustrate Left Wing protestors who are only able to respond with meaningless rhetoric like " yes we can " and/or juvenile insults or attacks.

Case in point were the 2 Left Wing armed thug New Black Panther Party Obama supporters who menaced McCain voters with a nightstick outside of a Philadelphia polling place on election day and then masqueraded as being ' official security for the polling place '

Yeah....right !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

************** I was a Detective who was on the job during the 1970's NYC blackout and , just like in the Watts riots from years earlier, although many people tried to disguise these as " political insurrections "......in both cases...the 2 most common types or stores that were broken into and looted were liquor stores + appliance stores.

Go figure ?

How many right-wing protests have erupted in violence compared to left-wing protests? I keep seeing all this talk of "tea baggers" and conservatives being so reactionary and violent, so I was wondering if anyone had any idea of how many times right-wingers or "tea baggers" have tried getting their message across by rioting and inciting violence? Please! The left have been holding reactionary and sometimes out right violent protest in America for the last 45 years. Did we just forget the 60's and the 70's and leftist groups who used violence and reactionary tactics in trying to get their agenda across. Ever hear of SDS, The Weather Underground, The Black Panther Party, Youth International Party and the violence they all caused. Try visiting a college university even today, and see just how (reactionary) the left can be.

Because, as you can tell by a lot of their answers on here, they act on pure emotion rather than logic.

Here's an example. Listen to the person at around :40 screaming "kill the police". This was at an anti war protest. Awesome. They don't want soldiers killing terrorists but it's fine for their own idiots to murder police officers...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ed60LFxOW_8

They rationalize it by saying that sometimes you have to break laws and commit violenct in order to get your point across. Apparently they don't believe in the Constitution, due process, contacting their elected representatives, or any of that political nonsense.

I mean, why bother with doing it the civilized way when you can break windows and set things on fire? That's much more fun ... to the childish and immature mind of the typical liberal. Which sort of puts a nail directly in the problem with Lefties, doesn't it? Of course, if their own window gets broken or their trash bin get set ablaze then it's all about calling 911 and make those hooligans stop damaging my stuff.

Their attitude is much the same regarding freedom of speech. If they're hearing what they want to hear then everything is cool. But if the speaker is saying things they don't agree with then it's all about shouting them down with chants & songs, blocking the view with huge banners, or even physically assaulting the speaker to force them into silence.

We've seen this sort of hateful behavior time & again with libs, which is why they are so hated & dispised by those who know better.

It's how they roll. But I'm not completely upset about this right now. It leaves us a lot of wriggle room. Look at who Obama's friends were. I mean if a bomber can get away with it and become a university professor who chums around with Obama, why in the world would there be such a thing as a list of "right winged extremists" made up of dissenting Americans?

And why are all murderers associated with the right? Animal "Rights" Cults, ecoterrorists, OWS jackboots, the Dark Knight shooter . . .

Violence and destruction of property is wrong whom ever perpetuates it. But you should at least have the decency to admit that those on the right are much more prone to commit violence than those on the left. After all the white supremest neonazis, survivalist groups and other far right violent groups belong to you, not to the left.

You forget the Civil War and abortion clinic bombings. And what about all the recent right wing threats to secede or start a revolution including Rep. Michelle Bachmann's call to arms: "I want the people of Minnesota to become "armed and dangerous on this issue of the energy tax"

Yes!

Woodstock -- people get raped, molested, robbed, and even die.

Not at Tea Parties and conservative protests. We got history and fact on our side.

More people actually show up to left wing protests.. Tea parties were big "news", but it was one national event.. One of the very few from the right... And it was about taxes.. Not exactly a "major" issue...

Why are murderers associated with the right?? Shot a gov't official.. Mass murder at a "leftist" church.. Killed a reporter..??
