The original argument that ONLY Dems and ALL Dems are violent is just ludicrous. Only a small percentage of the population account for the majority of violent crime. One study showing 1% responsible for 63% of violent crimes. Also men are responsible for 75% of violent crime. Men lean republican and aren’t you guys always talking about how the soy bois of the left couldn’t fight their way out of a wet paper bag? It does happen on both sides. Right now the left is committing more awful acts but let’s not forget the past either.

The us vs them talk is tired. Actually be the difference.

I think you mean "conflate" - - and you are right, it was unfair of me to do so.

Unfair to the to Jan. 6 protesters, that is.

Unlike BLM, which resulted in BILLIONS of damages to American cities, and several dozen directly involved deaths - - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_pe...ial_unrest - - the inexcusable Jan. 6 riot resulted only in the direct death of a single protester (by a trigger-happy, and unaccountable Capitol police officer), and convictions and actual jail time for virtually all of those involved (excepting the embedded federal provocateurs).

There is a difference. Political violence is the exception on the right. It is standard operating procedure on the left.

Yep. (And I was gonna say that J6 was a false flag operation anyway. You kinda already said it for me.)

I respect you, G-Coog, but do you really believe the Dems orchestrated the coordination of hundreds of Antifa members attacking the nation's capitol?

And you think they had nothing to do with it at all?? LMAO. I can no longer take you seriously. The democrat party may as well change their name to the Communist Party. Do you have your head in the sand? Have you not been paying attention to marxist creep??

Every other politician on the left is supportive of socialist candidates. Twenty years ago these candidates would be too afraid to expose their actual ideologies; now they are openly bragging about it. It's only happening on one side of the aisle, and it's not the GOP side, although they may have similar feelings about it. That said, I have heard no one on the right espousing communist sentiments or working out of marxist dogmatic playbooks.

Unbelievabe.

Open your mind and your eyes. These concerns are not tin foil-level conspiracy theories. Read one book on the topic. Just one. This one right here: NextGen Marxism:What It Is and How To Combat It.

There is a ton of books on this topic. Go to the link and look under the book description, and there are several listed; one in particular I found almost as informative as this one. It's titled Unhumans: The Secret History of Communist Revolutions (and How to Crush Them)

They are not difficult reads, and if you keep an open mind, your eyes may become a little less blurred to reality.

I never posted the left "had nothing to do with it at all," TB4E. I'm sure there were some antifa members in the crowd and maybe some white BLM proponents. These lefties were looking to agitate, to make the right look bad.

I simply posted that I feel, based on logic and reason, that most of the folks who stormed the capitol support Don Trump. IMO, there is not sufficient evidence to support the argument from some conservatives that this was a major false flag operations from the left, the Dems, the FBI, etc.

Similarly, and IMO, there is not sufficient evidence to support the argument from some liberals that Donald Trump criminally conspired with the Russian government.

With cases of this type, I try to believe what seems logical — whether it fits my social and political beliefs or not.

Honestly, but here in El Paso one would have a hard time finding someone with Autism. I have only seen one case and that was around 1975. It must be like the Karen situation, it's mostly a White problem. Hispanics for the most part don't coddle their kids and we expect them to be responsible from an early age.

The case that I saw was at the local lake. A man came around to where we were having a picnic and it was my son's birthday and my wife was pregnant with our second one. Well, the man had the kid on a leash and we found it odd. I guess he felt that it was safe to take it off and not to much later the kid runs to our picnic table, picked up the cake we were gonna eat for his birthday, runs to the lake and throws it in the water. To say that we weren't surprised is an understatement. The poor man couldn't stop apologizing and quickly donned the leash again. We weren't mad because we understood that the poor kid wasn't all there. Only God knows what happened to him in later life.

Muh, but both sides do it. My butt...

And ollie, that wasn't in response to your post. As to your post, I know too many people with kids on the spectrum...

But it doesn’t turn violent

I was punched at a donald trump rally. His message of hate caused the violence

You are a good bit behind in the discussion thread, RWT. Jan. 6 has been discussed.

Your paymaster Soros is going to dock your pay if you don't keep up.

Nope. George pays for all.

And I am not here on the weekends and I have a bunch of the repliers on ignore. So I have not read every post to know whether J6 was ignored like you guys normally do or not.

Doesn't change a thing...there is plenty of evidence of violence from the right.

So according to Tom, only the right wing commits political violence.

The left wing has never engaged in any sort of political violence in recent history.

Got it.

Also, lol at trying to pass of The Guardian as a reliable news source.

I wonder if Tom has ever been assaulted by a Trump supporter.

I would say no, but he would lie and say yes.

And I'm willing to bet dollars to donuts that HE assaulted the Trump supporter, not the other way around.

lol. Out of curiosity, I looked up the prevalence of autism in the Latino community and found that the occurrence is the same in all races and ethnicities, but Hispanic kids are diagnosed later than the rest due to cultural differences (ie Hispanic parents are less willing to seek professional care/less likely to see to symptoms as something to be concerned about).

My wife is a Special Ed teacher and I have been around a lot of kids thru coaching soccer and The Boy Scouts. I have actually seen quite a few kids who one would call autistic (high functioning) who are black, Indian and Asian. I have to wonder of there is data out there, but my suspicion is that people in working class communities get diagnosed at a lower rate than people in upper middle class families. In other words race is less of an issue than socio-economics.

So Tom is admitting to being a George Soro's shill.

Thanks for telling us something we already knew, Tom.

Also, we know you don't post on weekends.

Quite frankly, we don't care.

Those darn Danes, at it again.

Meanwhile, I've been on hold for an hour and 15 minutes with the stinking IRS. The IVR said the wait time would be 30-60 minutes. I thought the auto-pen kids hired 80,000 new IRS agents...

I have been trying to wrap up my dad's estate for 2 years. The final IRS tally, which should not be complicated, has been an open issue since August, 2024. I've written and called. I finally walked unannounced into the local IRS assistance office to make an in-person appointment. I was given a date for 4 weeks hence to meet with a case specialist.

When I arrived for the appointment, it was the very same person that I had met with initially. She was very pleasant, took my information, and told me that I would have a mailed response in 4-6 weeks.

No private enterprise would survive even 60 days if it operated like this.

Said no one ever, especially me, who wasn't just trying to diminish J6 like you are. Weak.

My aunt on my mom's side always thought I had Asperger's or at least high-functioning autism. But I was never diagnosed by a psychologist. In fact, the last one I saw said I don't have it. Other than being really quirky sometimes, I'm actually pretty normal... for someone who was "diagnosed" as a genius when he was 5. (That's according to my mom.)

I'm not talking about high function cases and I'm not talking about the raw numbers because good data from previous generations is just not there.

Its a bit like trying to compare average temperature to data from the 1700's. We just don't have good trustable and sold data from that time period so its not really that useful in comparing.

I was diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder when I was 5 and was on medication for it from that point until my mid-20s. They now put that on "the spectrum", but I know it's not the same. I'm usually very social when I'm out in the world.

Anyway, I saw the rep points you gave me. Thanks, man. I appreciate it.

Posts like the one you just made is why no one takes you seriously, Tom.

Not one f***ing person was diminishing the events of January 6th, 2021.

The weak one here is you. You've played yourself yet again.
