      Attacking/discrediting the messenger is a fallacious response. Address the substance of his argument.

      1) It is in fact the case that Nazis pose a threat to America, bc POTUS coddles them 2) It is in fact case that cops crack down more on left

      1) How does that justify vigilante violence? What about other threats? 2) Quite a generalization re 18k independent depts & 750k+ officers

      I'm sorry, you INVENTED that 1) was a justification for violence.

      His entire argument is that antifa vigilante violence is not justified & indeed harmful to the cause of anti-racism. Do you disagree? Why?

      Because he treats Nazi violence as a sideshow. It's not. It is being enabled by a White House he has defended.

      Who he has or hasn't defended is irrelevant. I oppose Trump w every fiber of my being. That has nothing to do with antifa violence.

      You are defending someone who has long been propagandist for violence. Yes. What he has said is precisely the issue bc he is part of problem

          Do you or do you not think affirmative support for illegal violence is bad?

          That's not an answer, that is the kind of evasion that you would pounce on as proof of mal-intent if uttered by an opponent.

          Like you framing the violence against hte left as exclusively about legit law enforcement. You're right. Yours wasn't an answer.

          Nope. Again, you are erecting straw men that you would prefer ideologically to burn, instead of listening and engaging in honest dialog.

          See, that is where you go off the rails. I am neither defending nor attacking "him". I am addressing the substance of arguments.
