Also you are generalizing an entire protest and thousands of people based on the actions of a few. Never a good thing to do because it leads to hate and closed mindedness.

Right ... Because the hard-left is known for peaceful protests and anti-capitalist, communist and anarchist protests never devolve into rioting

Nice to see you fail to see my point again. We are talking about one riot in one very violent city and you want to go and generalize that action to the whole movement. Closed minded thinking period.
On top of it, you bend my statements to your thinking trying to say I am just a liberal that is trying to say they never are violent. Wrong I am saying you cannot you use one example to create truths about people. That leads to things like racism, sexism and agism. 

Although it's only the second case of rioting.  It's not like it's the only case of violence in the OWS movement.

There are countless charges of assualt, rape, theft and much more.

I could be wrong here, but I could of swore you were one of the people who considered the teaparty to be extremists and racists despite no actual violence or racism. 

I would suggest that there is far more of a basis for HS's comments then the above.

Of course he has a basis for his comments because I do not hide my disdain for the far right. His reply ignored all my points and spinned the topic into a new direction.

Just so you know I do not join many political threads because guys like HS are polar opposites of me and I get angry. I come here mostly to have fun and politics are big and heated now and I do not intend to bring venom into it much. I would probably quickly get banned.

Now I wait for HS response because he is the one that made the original statement that set this off.
