    This is probably the best point anyone has made. If Latrin were President this would have never happened because universal surveillance.

    Now it's my turn to ask a ludicrous question that we both know the answer to:

    If I happen to buy a tank, can I just run it through the public library because of my right to unrestricted free movement?
    You and your comrades argument is "how big of a weapon is acceptable for an act of violence?" not what protected rights are being violated that lead to the acts of violence. Is throwing a rock at someone an acceptable form of response to speech you don't like? Or is a tank the line for which we say that's too extreme of a violent response?

    Both sides are guilty of acts of violence. Both sides espouse ideology that is anti-freedom. This woman is not a hero or a victim, she was part of the problem.

    Please never stop being such an obvious moron for all to mock.

    We are useing motorized vehicles in our examples because that is quite literally what was used in the attack in Virginia.

    I don't see an answer to my question, so I'll ask again - can I ram my tank through a public building, or does my unrestricted movement maybe have some restrictions on it after all?

    Was it OK for ANTIFA and BLM to throw rocks and pepper spray white nationalists that obtained the proper permits to assemble?

    Of course you can't, a public library is not public property designed for the movement of said tank. A public roadway is designed for just that purpose.

    Is it OK to barricade your driveway because I don't like you?

    You can't kill someone by throwing a rock at them?

    So wait I'm confused- how can I have the right to free unrestricted movement if the 'government' of all things can tell me where I can and can not go with its 'roads?'

    How many people in Charlottesville died that day because of a rock thrown at them?
