    If I went to a Cowboys tailgate with a texans jersey and dropped the **** bomb every minute cursing at Cowboys fans and threaten to deport them and drop derogatory slurs then yeah id expect to get my ass kicked. Actions have consequences.

    That dude purposely went to a rally to stir trouble and drop slurs and stir trouble and I have zero sympathy for him getting his ass kicked.

    He tripped on his own the first time all on his own

    It is so weird that you keep mentioning body odor. Ive never spoken about that here cuz its just weird talking about how another guy smells on a basketball forum? Like who thinks of another man's odor? And on a basketball forum? Weird dude. But because you know im muslim you think deep down think all Muslims must stink. Its subconscious way you show yourself as a racist POS but it's nothing new.

    You are Muslim? I was unaware of that.

    The body odor suspicion was for two reasons, neither of which relate to your religious faith:

    1) Statistically, body odor and poor manners are highly correlated
    2) You refused to answer my question about body odor previously, so I assumed that you didn't answer because you did not like the answer. I also asked if you were a "close talker" and ate food with your mouth open -- so the questions were not limited to body odor.

    Hopefully that clears things up.


    GOOD DAY

    You're asking another man on a basketball forum about his body odor. Think about that for a minute

    I honestly did not know you were Muslim.
    I missed the first ten years on this section of the board.

    You had offered to buy me a beer when and if I get to your neck of the woods.
    I can drink seltzer or coffee instead.

    Those seem to be oddly specific questions for a rando on a talk board.

    Love all the Trumpsters trying to take the moral high ground on violent protests.

    You guys can never do that again after Jan 6th.

    p***y move to push that guy down from behind. On the other hand, gramps shouldn't have been in that situation. He's a few years from being on a rotating schedule at the cardiologist.

    "Your honor, the plaintiff was rude to me" is not a very compelling argument.

    Having the emotional control of a child is not a good look.

    I mean the topic matters though. The topic of the protest is a call for anti-authoritarianism which is a call for CIVIL and Democratic resolution to governance in America.

    What protest is likely to have hostile reactions & a higher call for violence:

    -A protest that is a call for civility, and democratic norms?
    -A protest AGAINST that in a call for hate, division, oppression, dominance, and removal of freedoms??

    Take a No-Kings rally vs the Charlottesville rally? Why would it surprise anyone that No-Kings is largely peaceful on BOTH SIDES while a hate rally like the one in Charlottesville ends up with blood shed, and at least 1 person dead??

    The whole point of the protest is typically indicative of tone, and outcomes.

    An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Ignoring the early warning signs is digging your hole.

    I’m sure you’ll be the first to speak up when snipers actually start shooting at protesters. This has already happened.

    Federal agent shoots Chicago pastor in head during peaceful ICE protest | NationofChange
    The footage, captured on September 19 outside the Broadview ICE Processing Center, shows Reverend David Black praying and speaking toward a group of armed agents positioned on the building’s rooftop. Seconds later, one of the agents aims and fires a pepper ball—a chemical agent that causes irritation similar to pepper spray—striking the pastor in the head with a puff of smoke. Black collapses to his knees, coughing and clutching his face as protesters rush to help him.

    • No attempts to violently overthrow the government
    • No storming the Capital and hunting for politicians to hang
    • No 120 police officers being physically assaulted
    • No destruction of property

    I was pleasantly surprised we had such a large turn out, it was my first rally and it was nice being around so many liked minded folks. It was very peaceful and I was afraid we would see some agitators, but it was calm. If nothing else, the sheer size across the US shows people will come out, now if we can get the majority of people to actually VOTE..................EVERY VOTE COUNTS
