I'm sorry.
I don't understand this.

That's YOUR assumption.
Not mine.
I simply asked what he has done to qualify for that label.
Your response seems to be that "he sucks" (see below)?
Quote:And while this Ngo guy sounds like he thoroughly sucks, that doesn't excuse unprovoked violence in any way.
Really, that's my only point.
And of course.
The double standard from much/most of the MSM, celebrities, many politicians, professional athletes, and much of social media.

I actually never called Ngo far-right. I don't endorse everything in that article but I do think it's an interesting look at both sides of not just this attack, but the whole ongoing issue.
FWIW from what I know I wouldn't characterize the guy as right-wing on the whole. He seems to hold some traditionally liberal views, but he's a pot stirrer and holds some pretty caustic social viewpoints. That's his right, of course, but I don't have to like it or agree with it. It doesn't make him a target for indiscriminate violence, either.

Regardless of one's politics - the man is a narcissistic, misogynistic, racist, compulsive liar who is unfit to be Commander in Chief of our country.
If you read Rick Noack's piece in the Washington Post
Trump was inspired by France's Military might displayed in the 2017 Bastille Day Parade.
I did not see that article, but -
Seriously - FRANCE's military might?!

Will take your word for it.
But their security issues for several years have been alarming.
And of course historically they have lost-surrendered in more wars than they have won.

According to Nialls Ferguson, going back to 387 BC, they are 109-49-10 in major battles.

You can win a lot of battles and still lose the war.

RE: Trump's military parade on the 4th.
Hope everyone had a great 4th!
It is a memorable one, learning that General George Washington seized all those airports to help win either the Revolutionary War or the War of 1812

If you read Jessica Schulberg's piece in the Hufington Post, who obtained her info via the Freedom of Information Act and has the emails, Trump's Team asked for a same style of military showing, tanks and missile launchers at his inauguration. That was BEFORE the reported Bastille Day.
This time they diverted money from National Park money. No estimates or disclosure of the costs this time. How open and transparent from the guy who says that he's the "most transparent POTUS in history" by his own metrics.

In fairness, I always forget that airplanes didn't exist in the early 1800s if it's not right in front of my stupid fat face.

Oh wow, well .........he was all over the map talking about the American Revolution (1775 - 1783), conflated with "The War of 1812" which were 29 years apart, end to start, and for good measure, threw in a mischaracterization of "ramparts we watched" to "rammed the ramparts" from the writing of our National Anthem by Francis Scott Key from the British attack on Fort McHenry in Baltimore Harbor.
So it was a complete cluster, "Washington seizing airports" aside.03-drunk Felt like a deadpan comedy scene from Leslie Nielson that would have drawn stomach laughter a few years ago.
And everyone should know about the Wright Brother's. At least go to Greenfield Village and the Henry Ford museum once or twice.
So no fairness, not from a 73 (ish)? year old man who claims(BOASTS) to be so well educated and smart.
