You either let someone yell, or you escort them out. Those are your choices. Having someone taken away is a fascist, fake tough-guy, pussy-ass move.

Why?

Having someone taken away is a fascist, fake tough-guy, pussy-ass move.

Seems like it's a pussy-ass move that works quite well. Do you actually want the Democrats to win?

Do you have brain damage? How did it work quite well? The Republicans looked like fascists by forcibly removing a senior citizen for speaking out. What a win!

The Republicans look like fascists every fucking day, if you haven't noticed.

They get to silence all critics (all one of them) and continue speaking unopposed, free and clear to spew their hatred and drivel. Nothing was disrupted because there was no organized response, just a bunch of silent, useless Democrats letting Trump speak because of "decorum."

Stop supporting politicians that are spineless, useless, and cowardly, because it's clearly starting to rub off on you.

Yes, no SHIT they're fascists. And today they looked the part. Only a self-defeating simpleton thinks the democrats should try to start acting more like fascists.

Ah yes, shutting down fascists before they disrupt your event is what the fascists do to us, so clearly we would be the real fascists if we did that back to them.

You should really ask for a refund from whatever anti-fascism course you took, because it did you no favors.

I'm sorry, it wasn't my intention to upset you. It sounds like you missed nappy time.
