You have never heard me advocate violence.

I have never heard you renounce violence and criminal behavior by union members. Instead you dance around it with well scripted rhetoric.

What I term protest for our causes you term criminal behavior.
Holding someone against their will is criminal behavior, whether done as a protest or not. Are you being deliberately obtuse or is this just the way you think?

Let's see if I can break through your progressive programming with some logic.

If I bring a group of angry tea party members to your home and they are clearly on your property and they are causing your wife and children to fear for their lives, do you, Paul V, have the moral right to use force to remove them from your property?

Or, since the tea party is protesting for their cause, does that justify the use of intimidation to reach their ends? Or are the rules different for unions and progressives?

Have you ever been in close proximity of a tea party member who was openly carrying a firearm and using it in an intimidating manner? I'm not talking about seeing it on TV. We all saw the one black guy lawfully carrying a rifle slung on his shoulder. There were plenty of people around him who were relaxed and there was clearly no threat to anyone. A car handled in a threatening manner is far more dangerous than a firearm. Do you feel threatened whenever you see someone at the wheel of a car?
