    When the commotion started, Harris smiled at the disrupters and said, “Oh, you guys are at the wrong rally.”

    As the crowd roared, Harris readied the punchline:

    “I think you meant to go to the smaller one down the street.”

    Ouch.

    The crowd erupted again as Harris laughed and waved the protesters goodbye.

          In 1939, they came with billy bats and sticks and actually got into fistfights.

          Today, they come with assault rifles and bombs. I don’t want to see them “try” anything, thank you.

      I actually love the fact that stadiums full of people go to political rallies and get jazzed about policy speeches. It’s strange, right? But I’m glad it’s something we get collectively psyched about. In a democracy, it (usually) feels healthy.

        That’s an invitation to the general public (including conservatives) to attend (could be online) a Trump rally to see for themselves. It wasn’t an order to go to the opponent (and heckle them).

        It’s gigantic difference.

  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That’s all the rules!
