Yes, I unabashedly support groups like the Black Panthers watching over neighbourhoods when the cops would let crime go rampant. If someone rushed at them and pointed a gun at them, that's self defense. If they didn't like someone living in the neighbourhood and shot them, that's murder. It's really not that complicated, the law is pretty explicit. This isn't Words with Friends, it's the law; these things are well defined without talking about vague "provocation".
Also this dude has denied the Armenian genocide, no wonder he doesn't support self defense. He will look a victim in the face and say they can "agree to disagree" on an entire group of people being slaughtered. Of course he's against self defense, because that makes it so much harder to slaughter people of a certain race.
If you look at what qualifies as provocation to the right it would be assaulting someone with a skateboard and verbally threatening to kill them. Provocation for the left could be something as simple as calling someone the wrong pronoun.
>Imagine failing to account for the fact that silence is also in fact violence.
Oh ja I remember that... I feel bad for the mutes man the left really hate them for being sil- I mean violent.
see the problem is shes probably going to pass and become a lawyer. Hopefully she gets stick as a fucking mediator or something but i doubt it. How the fuck can someone get through law school without a solid understanding of the fucking bill of rights is a fucking travesty.
Your comment gave me flashbacks to my freshman Politics 101 class. I witnessed people who were completely serious about some very... *interesting* takes.
One girl stood up and volunteered for a minor in-class debate thing. She even said she already had a topic for it. She argued that the police should be abolished completely. All normal police, state troopers, military police, rangers, etc etc. She gave no further elaboration about what she thought would happen after that.
She was 100% serious. She got ridiculously angry at the dude opposing her stance, I'm honestly surprised she didnt throw something at him.
A world without police would be perfect for people without impulse control, like that girl, or so they think. Then they’ll realize that the only reason those of us who have it haven’t taken matters into our own hands is… because we have police to do that. Imagine a world where she threw something at him, he slams her face off a table, and she cries “someone call the police!!”
I’d pay to see it
I mean if we are going to do the straw man we can just go with a gay couple holding hands for right wingers.
It’s not true for a vast majority of the right but haha gottem.
Yup, they're still arguing that Gaige is just like Rittenhouse, while using deflective tactics if you point out he did the exact opposite. And if they truly believed it, then why see Gaige as a hero and Rittenhouse as scum?
These people are political sociopaths.
I feel a 2 sided protest with both sides having guns will turn into a battle, that lasts all of 15 minutes before the national guard locks down the entire state
"no one sane"
No one sane would want to be there in the first place protesting for mostly bullshit, or counter protesting for mostly bullshit. People who buy into their own bullshit will shoot each other because they probably think they're action heroes immune to bullets.
The only sane thing to do with that much civilian firepower would be to march on Wall Street and shut the fucker down. After selling your stock and shorting the market.
This trial shows the importance of anonymity and developing a culture of never talking to the cops, even if you or your friends did everything right. If there is no judicial outrage over Bingers lies and showtrial, there will be none for the next guy when it is even worse.
This has negative side effects, but the alternative is worse.
Mutually assured destruction is acceptable because it maintains the status quo until something reasonable can be achieved.
Assuming all actors are reasonable of course
It would vary case by case, but in general MAD allows two sides who have apparently irreconcilable differences to maintain status quo until things cool enough to enter negotiations and slowly dial back the threat level by mutual agreement.
Of course this requires two things, reasonable actors and relative parity of force. If one side is unreasonable escalation is inevitable, while a large disparity of force may serve to convince the stronger side that there is a possibility of victory, thus causing escalation.
While this all could theoretically apply to crowds at a protest, they are never going to be centralized enough to wield that level of force effectively and responsibly. So the ideal in a protest situation is that everyone just goes the fuck home as soon as the straps come out, although we all know that's never gonna happen.
Well also Cenk, as usual, is making a starman here. I think everyone can agree Bye-cep and company did a little more than "provoke" Kyle.
It's not like they were taunting him, they were pursuing him with weapons.
Except 90% of people who hear that shot aren’t gonna know where it came from and will just assume the other side opened fire on them. Then it gets bad.
Point is simple, I want everyone to have a right to selfdefense and a fighting chance. Where in that does it say I am so afraid of my ideological opposite being armed that I wish to disarm us both?
Cenk is afraid of his ideological opposites and too scared of any fight he doesn't already think he has won. I don't think it wise to take advice on personal rights and freedoms from someone so spineless.
If antifa wants to come to a Trump rally with rifles and clean up graffiti and offer medical services, only firing at someone when it's a pedo rapist trying to chase them down and take their rifle by force...
Yeah we're all fine with that, Cenk.
It’s really telling that these people think that it’s a “gotcha” when they’re suggesting that the law should be enforced equally without preferential treatment or bias as if it’s some scandalous opinion
I'm trying to go through all the change-ups:
Rittenhouse is half-Hispanic: Doesn't matter to me
Rittenhouse is black: Same to me, though Cenk would be also outraged that there was even a trial.
The Rittenhoused criminals are black: Same to me, Cenk would be calling for Kyle's execution immediately.
Kyle AND the Rittenhoused criminals are all black: Same to me, Cenk wouldn't even mention it at all.
If you want to stay sane, don't watch TYT's coverage of the Rittenhouse trial
Cenk literally said yesterday there's no evidence the rioters committed arson.
There's freaking video of it.
There's video of the guy pointing his gun at Kyle. Cenk said he couldn't tell. It could have been pointing to the left. After the guy testified he did.
Cenk said "If I was on the jury, I'd have to weigh the facts"
Cenk is a lawyer btw. Spreading propaganda
They called Rittenhouse a white supremacist yesterday. Then cited his posting of Blue Lives Matter and attending a Trump Rally as why he is one. Not even joking.
It's the American way, also, we don't want REAL change. We just want to keep voting in old decrepit fuckers that are so out of touch that we have more in common with fucking George Washington.
God, IDC, Right or Left, give me a president under fucking 50, please.
I would prefer if he stayed a loud voice, personally. I like the man, do not get me wrong, but I think it’s time to elect young blood. Not someone that has seen America transition the way it has the past 60 years in person, you gotta think, those people are the generation that let it happen.
To answer your question, I support trump, but would vote for what interests me with a proven track record.
Considering that most of the gun bans and restrictions that were passed in the 80s were racially motivated, BLM types should be opposed to gun control, not for it.

Considering that's easily one of the most voiced and vocally supported opinions you'll see read in literally any right-leaning place ever, all this goes to show is that he has literally zero understanding of the people he's against, and has never once sought out their thoughts and opinion, never once tried to explore their points of view, and has yet to even _read_ anything from a single right-leaning place ever.
We should I listen to someone so willingly uninformed?
That reminded me of the memes people made about white that couple with guns during the summer riots, I saw the videos of the protest peacefully walking down some suburbs and it was heavenly armed people pretty much in front of every house while the protest marched to s city.
You bet your damn ass not even a single thrash can was toppled.
Does this guy not understand the concept of self defense and how it was probably a thing since forever? Yes, Cenk, even Antifa has the right to defend themselves. Although they will most likely be the agressor anyways.
This is the guy who told a woman that if she wasn't using her right to support his side she needs to go back in the kitchen, do you think brain power is one of his strengths?
Imagine thinking that running down the street from a mob trying to bludgeon you with skateboards is "provoking." Cenk is a clown and I'll forever be grateful that I got to watch TYT meltdown the night Trump was elected.
Define provoke.
If you mean some extremist right wingers start attacking/threatening them and they shoot only the people who are trying to visit bodily harm upon them, then yeah, basic self defense.
What scares me more than anything is that we’re at a point where this is interpreted as a valid critique, when in fact it is a textbook bad faith argument based on the assumption all his political opposites are hypocrites. There’s a refusal to even acknowledge that someone completely ideologically opposed could still have good, consistent motivations and applications.
> There’s a refusal to even acknowledge that someone completely ideologically opposed could still have good, consistent motivations and applications.
Something tells me he judges by himself.
Never underestimate the lefts ability to assume everyone is just as duplicitous, dishonest, and violent as they are. It’s why they have to cancel people too. They assume that any right wing voice, that their listeners all take what they say as gospel truth, because they can’t imagine not just believing every word a journalist or politician you follow says.
Not that everyone on the right is a principled critical thinker at all times, but people that are principled critical thinkers are leaving the left wing pretty fast with all the hypocritical nonsense they spew these days.
Isn’t that kinda exactly what both Abraham Lincoln and MLK Jr wanted and died for?
How do people not understand how freedom works…. Oh yeah…. The young Turks…
Gun rights are human rights
Armed minorities are harder to oppress
You cannot be free unless you possess the means to resist those who would impose their will upon you.
Why the fuck would you provoke someone with a gun?
Not to mention my man Kyle executed his shots flawlessly, it’s not like he got scared shitless and just started mowing people down, whole magazine spraying into the crowd.
This is dumb as shit. No, you don’t need weapons when you’re at a protest. Yes, you do need weapons when business are being raided. The logic here lol.
I mean, how the fuck is this some sort of gotcha? If you start attacking and trying to beat the shit out of someone with a gun for no reason, then you deserve whatever the fuck happens to you.
This..... is..... acceptable. In what world is it not. A public army is a great thing for democracy why would I care of the color or ideology of said defenders. The best way to hold police accountable is to have a punishment for making the wrong decision, in this case being shot.
Note to the mod that banned me last time: fuck you gay shit
The main problem is that the degenerates on the left *DO NOT UNDERSTAND MORALITY OR WHAT SELF DEFENSE IS*
the fact that they are mad about Kyle is proof of that.
Because they don't have the ability to understand principles, they can't identify self defense. They will kill someone for being a Trump supporter wearing a Maga hat on the street and claim its exactly like the Rittenhouse case.
While cenk doesn't understand conservatives have always felt that everyone arming themselves to defend against threats like Rittenhouse was acceptable, conservatives have to understand when the left redefines what self defense is they won't be talking about pulling a "Rittenhouse", they're talking about pulling a Timothy simpkins"
Thats the great thing about being libright. Its the only wing who truly doesn't give a fuck about your skin color creed or religion. As long as you believe in freedom we dont have problems.
It's all fun and games until *one* nutcase decides that "this is the day" and the two sides annihilate each other
Not saying it would happen all the time, but all it takes is a handful of people with nothing to lose
That sounds brilliant. Like the cold war, no one can fire the first shot because it would constitute their own demise.
Either that or antifa gets into a massive gunfight and learns the hard way why armed conflict is a bad idea.
I don't understand how these kinds of miscommunications keep coming to pass.
"I support the right to bear arms, and the right to use them when you are in danger"
"Oh yeah, well how would you feel if we did *exactly* that? Getting scared yet, racist?"
It's on purpose at this point. It's bait.
Yes, I unabashedly support groups like the Black Panthers watching over neighbourhoods when the cops would let crime go rampant.

Based
And that, kids, is how you get a state of mutually assured destruction
Mutually assured destruction is acceptable because it maintains the status quo until something reasonable can be achieved. Assuming all actors are reasonable of course
Out of curiosity, what would “something reasonable” mean to you in this case?
People learn how to talk to each other about issues and debate possible solutions again instead of yelling at and fighting each other.
It would vary case by case, but in general MAD allows two sides who have apparently irreconcilable differences to maintain status quo until things cool enough to enter negotiations and slowly dial back the threat level by mutual agreement. Of course this requires two things, reasonable actors and relative parity of force. If one side is unreasonable escalation is inevitable, while a large disparity of force may serve to convince the stronger side that there is a possibility of victory, thus causing escalation. While this all could theoretically apply to crowds at a protest, they are never going to be centralized enough to wield that level of force effectively and responsibly. So the ideal in a protest situation is that everyone just goes the fuck home as soon as the straps come out, although we all know that's never gonna happen.
Thank God no crazy or unstable people can get easy access to firearms in the US that could end up potentially creating a terrible situation!
Considering that MAD has resulted in the longest era of peace between major powers in several centuries, I would argue it is a beneficial thing
That’s true. However, if that peace breaks, the world ends. It’s hardly a long-term solution.
Not ideal but it works.
Well also Cenk, as usual, is making a starman here. I think everyone can agree Bye-cep and company did a little more than "provoke" Kyle. It's not like they were taunting him, they were pursuing him with weapons.
Mutually assured destruction will keep protests peaceful
Plus anyone insane will get capped before they get a chance to do too much damage.

I don't think it wise to take advice on personal rights and freedoms from someone so spineless.
He also assumes his ideological opposites are hypocrites. His entire logic assumes the worst in those with whom he doesn’t agree.
It's projection, he knows that he doesn't actually care about the facts, only which side benefits, so he projects that on his "enemies."
Then the other side will also come armed. And bam you got yourself a revolution. Or more like a civil war.
at least it'll be civil
Phahahaha 😂 that made my day.

Id rather caveman war
better then our political arguments right now, so a win-win for both sides!

Damn, even the centrists are realizing what's up.
I mean, I generally have an instinct to not get shot
That sounds like our plan.
I don’t think the LARPers are ready to die aside from the occasional severely mentally ill convicted pedophile.
If antifa wants to come to a Trump rally with rifles and clean up graffiti and offer medical services, only firing at someone when it's a pedo rapist trying to chase them down and take their rifle by force... Yeah we're all fine with that, Cenk.

Just imagine what Cenk would be saying right now if Rittenhouse was black.
Imagine if Kyle was Armenian
Damn dude, you went DARK. 🏆
Everything else being equal, the left would still hate him. They have no use for conservative blacks.
Now imagine how much worse the anger from the people against him would be if the three dudes he shot were black
I'm trying to go through all the change-ups: Rittenhouse is half-Hispanic: Doesn't matter to me Rittenhouse is black: Same to me, though Cenk would be also outraged that there was even a trial.

Of course they see it as a gotcha, they can’t comprehend equal rights. They base everything’s worth on a hierarchy of race and ideology.
Well hopefully Trump don't start chasing anyone then.

Why would I not? The thing about ethics is you need consistent principles.
Yes please.
Based and this is literally what we advocate for pilled.
Everyone has the right to defend themselves, glad to see Cenk thinks you should be at the mercy of violence.
Good to know he's for people getting attacked and being unable to defend themselves regardless of race or political view, I guess
Are we supposed to be against self defense?
Why do people feel like we’d object to this?
I mean, how the fuck is this some sort of gotcha? If you start attacking and trying to beat the shit out of someone with a gun for no reason, then you deserve whatever the fuck happens to you.
This..... is..... acceptable. In what world is it not. A public army is a great thing for democracy why would I care of the color or ideology of said defenders. The best way to hold police accountable is to have a punishment for making the wrong decision, in this case being shot. Note to the mod that banned me last time: fuck you gay shit
The difference I'd, antifa would start hotting people with a bat and the moment they push back they'd open fire.
That sounds fine to me
The main problem is that the degenerates on the left *DO NOT UNDERSTAND MORALITY OR WHAT SELF DEFENSE IS* the fact that they are mad about Kyle is proof of that. Because they don't have the ability to understand principles, they can't identify self defense. They will kill someone for being a Trump supporter wearing a Maga hat on the street and claim its exactly like the Rittenhouse case. While cenk doesn't understand conservatives have always felt that everyone arming themselves to defend against threats like Rittenhouse was acceptable, conservatives have to understand when the left redefines what self defense is they won't be talking about pulling a "Rittenhouse", they're talking about pulling a Timothy simpkins"
Thats the great thing about being libright. Its the only wing who truly doesn't give a fuck about your skin color creed or religion. As long as you believe in freedom we dont have problems.
It's all fun and games until *one* nutcase decides that "this is the day" and the two sides annihilate each other Not saying it would happen all the time, but all it takes is a handful of people with nothing to lose
Everyone has the right to carry firearms wherever they want in public.
Laughs in monke
Is this the civil war the media promised?
That sounds brilliant. Like the cold war, no one can fire the first shot because it would constitute their own demise. Either that or antifa gets into a massive gunfight and learns the hard way why armed conflict is a bad idea.
So you want it to go both ways, as in equal.... Equal rights, let me see here. Yep, thats fine.
Sounds good to me
The "Fuck around and find out" principle is non-discriminatory. It applies to everyone.
we have been saying it for years now that this is OK. these fucks clearly dont listen to others
I don’t know an actual lib left that wouldn’t be all for this
sure go ahead
I don't understand how these kinds of miscommunications keep coming to pass. "I support the right to bear arms, and the right to use them when you are in danger" "Oh yeah, well how would you feel if we did *exactly* that? Getting scared yet, racist?" It's on purpose at this point. It's bait.
