     “Let’s also remember that when a Catholic bishop condemned the gay-sex-in-the-street fair (aka Folsom Street Fair in SF), but did NOTHING to disrupt it he was retaliated against by two members of the Sister of Perpetual Indulgence going to a Catholic mass and receiving communion (which was recorded) from the bishop. The mayor of SF wouldn’t even condemn them for it.”

     Again:

     “The mayor of SF wouldn’t even condemn them for it.”

     And we should be surprised he did not condemn it…why?

     Well nothing as grand as you the KaosKlerik might devise.

     The mayor was probably too busy enjoying the fetishtivities to condemn them. I mean, isn’t that the lefts favorite line lately, everybody does it?

     Felony charges will stick on their records. Hopefully, they will become convictions. Maybe, when they are a bit older, they’ll understand that the felony convictions will stay with them for all time. Explain that, to a prospective job or home. But, I imagine, at worse, they’ll get community service or something else tame. I also imagine that they will feel really “cool” about it, and do some more damage to others and their lives. In that case, the punishment will last a very long time, in having such a record.

     There is really no limit to the small probing missions we could devise now that we have them in a disorganized retreat er general panic. Operation catfight would be a good one to try out right about now or Operation judasgoat to name another. But I’m sure you all get the idea, be creative, creative conservatism is the key.

     You are trolling and you know it.

     I don’t know what trolling means. I participate in the thread as you do.

     You are being downright disrespectful…

     I try to follow the advice in Leviticus by responding in kind (eye for an eye) but to a lesser degree (which was the actual point in Leviticus). Balance the insults I’ve given (there have been some) against the insults I’ve received.

     …and disingenuous to rant about abortion instead of addressing the ACTUAL issue.

     That’s what I was doing, as rusty understood. The larger point of the thread is that liberals are bad because some liberal nuts (six of them) did something disgusting. As TheOtherSide understood, I was arguing against this larger point. There also are conservative nuts who do disgusting things to protest abortion.

     LGM, your obsession with abortion clinics borders on the insane. Why don’t you spend your days down there and tape all these horrid abuses that go on on the outside that you claim daily in your rants. You can post your video essay for us all to see. You have nothing else to do with your time so please show us how the terrible people on the right destroy death factories every single day in your view. Of course this doesn’t happen everyday but you believe in your twisted mind that the recruiters, people going to church on Easter Sunday probably deserve the demonstration of “protest”. Troll.

     Also of note: the murders are in jail, where they belong.

     I have yet to see the same for war protesters who break laws.

     Apples and oranges. Most war protesters don’t do anything worthy of being jailed. Including the six who disrupted a Mass. Even slapping someone isn’t worthy of jail time.

     The protesters were all charged with felony criminal damage to property and two counts of simple battery for squirting the blood around the auditorium and onto worshipers’ clothes, authorities said. Chicago police identified the six arrested as Donte D. Smith, 18; Ephran Ramirez Jr., 22; Ryane Ziemba, 25; Mercedes Phinaih, 18; Regan Maher, 25; and Angela Haban, 20.

     These young punks are accused of (and video recordings show) committing a felony. So, their premeditated act, in my opinion, should earn them each several years in the slammer if for no other reason to teach them to write editorials to express themselves instead of disrupting Easter Mass. Throw the book at them, this nonsense from the self-centered left must stop. NOW.

     Rusty,

     Slapping someone is assault. Mothers have been arrested for doing less to discipline their kids in public.

     If one of these peons slapped me, I’d file charges out the posterior. They’d go to jail, even if only for a short time.

     Besides, the obstruction the nuts in Berkely have been guilty of is illegal. You cannot forcefully block a private citizen’s path no matter what you think of what they are doing.

     Yes, Rusty, many of these wack-jobs have earned jail time.

     lgm,

     You should learn from Rusty’s debating skills. He’s good. I have to publicly agree with everything he has stated in this thread. (I think this is the 2nd time I’ve done so.)

     You, on the other hand, aren’t as bright. You “miss the point” often and even state factual errors (which is the kiss of death to your credibility).

     But those who have - like the thugs who trashed the recruiting station here in Milwaukee - haven’t received punishment. And slapping someone is assault, Rusty. You could go to jail for it.

     The larger point of the thread is that liberals are bad because some liberal nuts (six of them) did something disgusting. As TheOtherSide understood, I was arguing against this larger point. There also are conservative nuts who do disgusting things to protest abortion.

     I get your point (even if it wasn’t clear in my other comment), however - a direct question to you:

     Do you, as a liberal, condemn these actions inasmuch as they not only were inappropriate but a direct harassment to innocent Catholics participating in an activity (Mass) wholly unrelated to war and on the holiest day of the Church’s calendar (Easter)?

     Because I - as a conservative - make this explicitly clear: I condemn it. Just as I condemn violence at abortion clinics. Just as many, many conservatives have.

     But you’re missing the larger point. This is a religious service. In a Church. On EASTER SUNDAY.

     Don’t you think Catholics have a right to peacefully worship?

     And wouldn’t you be more than a little frightened if someone came in and started splattering blood all over the place? Granted, this turned out to be fake blood - but what if it had been real? Diseased? Infected with HIV?

     What would you say if this was a mosque? If a group of feminists started trashing the place on a Friday during services?

     Would you have the same apathetic attitude toward that?

     And why do my feelings count less than someone in a politically correct protected class?

     Because - as a practicing Catholic - I find this insulting, hurtful and rude. Or do my feelings not count because I’m just some silly Papist?

     lGM can you tell me what abortion clinic was bombed today? Can you tell me which ones were bombed yestrerday? LGM, can you tell me what woman was denied getting her abortion done? By the way what do they do with the fetuses after they kill them? Do they burn them or what? Yes I know Abortion is legal and I won’t be surprized when post birth abortion will be legal. Also did you know that slavery was legal? I would love to hear some answers.

     How is
     “Don’t like abortion? Don’t have one.”
     morally different from
     “Don’t like slavery? Don’t own one.“

     The difference is that the fetus is not (yet) a person. But this really is off topic.

     You think abortion is murder. Some (not me) think what the US is doing in Iraq is murder. That explains why the radical anti abortion people and the radical anti war people use similar tactics.

     …and slaves were considered sub-human by those who favored slavery. As long as you de-humanize that which you wish to exploit or destroy you can justify anything against the innocent.

     It’s not off-topic because I had a point. The Islamofascist terrorists justify horrific acts against innocent people and there is little complaint from most Muslims (yes, some are intimidated). The difference is that the vast majority of Christians are opposed to all three. You appear to me to only oppose one, maybe one & a half (you despise the last, but don’t want us to oppose it).

     As soon as you see the statement that the fetus is not (yet) a person, any further attenmpt at discussion will be as fruitful as a conversation with a chair.

     #93 Rusty said:

     But to say that abortion protests don’t often go beyond the pale is ridiculous.

     I’m not disputing that pro-life activists have murdered 7 abortion providers in the last 15 years, I was disputing lgm’s equivalence claim that what happened in the Chicago church happens “every day” at abortion clinics.

     #75 lgm said:

     Main stream liberals don’t condone what happened in Chicago any more than main stream conservatives condone what happens around the country every day at abortion clinics.
