I hereby found the pizza-with-forks-sometimes (PWFS) party.

LP is our out-group.  Boo, hiss.

Nooo!  Immorality!  The second greatest of PWFS evils, just behind greasy fingers!

At least twenty arrested as anti Trump protestors wreak havoc in California

This took place at a Trump rally.  Anti-Trump... well, anti Republican people took the streets, thought this doesn't seem like a good way to get their message out as they punch people, smash police cars, and more...

I have been known to eat pizzas with forks.

[/dirtysecret]

I sometimes eat pizza with a fork, especially if it is too hot or I don't want to get my hands greasy.

Protestors have a right to speak their mind, but when they start to act stupid, it belittles their whole message.

Anyone notice how it's basically all the people against Trump that are causing these problems. Making me less likely to even give the candidates a look. It's like, this isn't a way to get your message across. You look like fools.

Same with many other movements in the past sixty years.  They all usually start from one side and they become violent.

I'm pretty neutral but I am going to say what everyone knows, including Democrats and liberals...

The violence usually starts with the leftist groups.

There, it has been said.  Thank you, have a good day.

I'd agree that they're more inclined to protests that degenerate into riotousness, but I'd need to see some decent statistics before swallowing that statement in full.  I'd expect the result to be hopelessly murky, and variable based on how you defined your left/right axis and how you defined political violence.  For instance, do we include those who'd reject democracy altogether?  (See: the Soviets, and/vs the Italian & Spanish fascists from mid last century, for such asshats on the far left & right respectively.)

Valid point.  I wouldn't know where to find the stats, and I don't actually care enough to look for them.  But since we are on the subject, right now in SF, there are protests at a GOP Convention by anti-topers obviously.

Remember everyone, the Bay Area is open to everything, willing to accept anyone and everything, except if you are a conservative. ;)

Is it bad that my first thought when you said SF was "sneeze furs"?

Ted Cruz choose Carly Fiorina to be his Vice President before the primary in Indiana, which will be a make or break moment for his campaign.  Indiana's governor has officially endorsed, Cruz.
