I no longer reaspond to comments like this. Some of us are trying to raise the level of discourse around here. Hopefully this will save you some timein the future.

It is not "casually accepting" becasuse he also said it was an "unfortunate truth. So he is not saying it is a good thing. He does not accept it "casually". Instead he has said it has to be accepted because of the law and historical precedent.
And what about GMdino's comments. How do you explain your interpretation of his position when has repeatedly said it is not a good thing?

Actually "yes". you absolutely can. For example, I am not happy that the KKK has the right to preach their hatred in public, but at ther same time I agree that they have the right. So it is possible to dislike soimething yet understand that it is legal and going to happen.

The way you worded your comment I am not sure which position you are claiming I don't want to argue. But I have already made my position very clear. Here is the direct quote from post #1315
The Constitution allows for people to peacefully protest. That includes on public property infront of a person's home.
So could you please just stop making stuff up. It makes it difficulut to have a serious conversation about an issue when yuou refuse to even address what people actually say.
