Violence Has Been Officially Legitimized: The Charlottesville Doctrine

The Republicans and Democrats alike have condemned the very idea that Antifa has any culpability. The groundrules have changed: civility is eliminated.
The Charlottesville Doctrine
Further demonstration of the fact that the terms Republican and Democrat have no meaning is the way the cowards and traitors of the Republican establishment have come out in favor of Antifa, the new KKK of both parties. There is no other way to interpret the vehemence with which the Bushes, Rubio, McCain, Cory Gardener, etc, etc have attacked Trump for pointing out the simple fact that violence was unleashed on the white supremacists and Nazis at the Charlottesville protest.

Like 'em or not, the white supremacists and Nazi's had a permit to rally and it was the responsibility of the state to protect that right and to protect the demonstrators. Those who did not have a permit were the Antifa counter-demonstrators, who arrived with weapons and the intent to inflict injury on the protesters. This is a coordinated attack on other Americans aided and abetted by the state and city governments.

What Antifa, with the help of government officials, including the police department and state police, have demonstrated to the entire nation, is that if someone has a point of view with which one disagrees, perhaps even vehemently, it should be countered with violence. I don't know what other message to take from the events of Charlottesville. It is a free for all.

In the days of the republic, folks like me allowed for these diverse opinions and points of view and allowed for peaceful demonstrations on behalf of opinions I found detestable, but no longer. Now that the principles of the republic have been done away with and civil discourse obliterated with violence, the sense of dedication to those principles is quickly diminishing.

Before, it was always a trade off, in order to have a civil society the worst points of view had to be tolerated. Now, when I see someone burn an American flag I no longer have to reflect on the whole purpose of the First Amendment and freedom of speech, I can (and should) as dictated by the Charlottesville Doctrine, stomp their head in.

This is the Charlottesville Doctrine: Protests held and engaged in by individuals with disgusting and socially objectionable points of view should be met with violence.

The Charlottesville Doctrine, just so you feel morally secure in these attacks is supported by U.S. Senators on both sides of the aisle. House of Representatives from both sides of the aisle, the media, judges, police officers, governors, mayors and state police. Have at it!
