    He didn't make it to the actual violence part, but I believe this fits here

    NJ man arrested on terror charges, allegedly wanted to bomb Trump Tower

    In another Instagram post court records quoted Xie as saying "I want to shoot the pro-Israel demonstrators...you can get a gun and shoot your way through or use a vehicle and ram people... all you need is a gun or a vehicle to go on a rampage..."

    Xie's social media accounts were loaded with terror propaganda, the FBI said, and declarations of support for Bashar al Assad, Saddam Hussein and North Korea.


    Around April 20, 2019, FBI surveillance observed Xie outside of the Trump Tower building in New York City.

    Shortly thereafter, according to Instagram records, Xie posted two photos to his Instagram account: One with the words "I want to bomb Trump Tower" imposed over the building image and the other with the words "(S)hould I bomb Trump Tower," a "Yes No" poll, and an emoji of a bomb imposed over the Trump Tower building image

    He seems … nice.

    The flaw in the logic.. if someone tries to kill me, that's violence.
    If I kill them, to defend myself, that's still violence.
    Justified or not justified, doesn't change things.

    So, not saying one side or the other is justifed.
    Merely that it's flawed reasoning.

    Violence is not violence. Words are violence.

    Why stop at eggs and milkshakes Lets throw rocks and bottles.

    Why stop at rocks and bottles?

    Is there a point at which it becomes violence?

    It’s not logic. It is morality. I think that’s pretty clear. “Hate speech is the same as violence” sounds like they’re making a statement of moral equivalence. Morality isn’t “logical”. It just is. And they’re missing some moral components to see things as normal people would. Haidt likens it to taste receptors. Some are sensitive to sweet flavors, some sour, etcetera. So if you can only have one taste receptor, say the one for sweetness, you can’t process the other flavors. Kinda like if all you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.

    It has nothing to do with the degree of violence, but everything to do with degree of color.
    A true racist is usually the one screaming racism.


    All very similar to those true fascists calling themselves ANTIFA.

    If a person throws something at me and I can catch them I may not win the fight but that person will know that they have been in a fight.
    I will bite a ear off, gouge an eye out, pull your “man bun” off your head whatever I can do to leave a permanent mark so that person can recall the incident for the rest of their life.
    Throwing stuff =A$$ whipping

    BTW
    Dont care if the thrower is a Democrat, Republican, Socialist, LQBTQFKN, 18 to 80 to me this is what’s wrong with people words are one thing you throw stuff you get a beat down 1977 style!

    I was going to quote el-Hajj Malik el-Shabazz about dealing with those who do violence while claiming it isn’t really violence, but it might push the envelope. Something about the cemetery.

    I'm with you. If the cemetery throws anything at me, I'll whip its ass too! :):
