LIBERAL ASSAULTS

Many Conservatives in our community have to hide their viewpoints on politics and social issues for their own safety. I've had Conservatives tell me they are afraid to reveal their viewpoints due to fear of vandalism, name calling and character assassination from Liberals in the area. Nasty notes have been put on my car windshield and others have had their cars scratched because of their bumper stickers. Liberals say they believe in diversity and tolerance, but only if they agree with what is said.

 

"Free Speech" is everyone’s right and using such tactics is unconscionable. "Free Speech" is not just voicing your beliefs, but LISTENING respectfully to those who oppose your viewpoints and defending their right to speak. Each of us has the responsibility to ensure that no one is intimidated from participating in civil discourse in our community, county, state and country.

 

There’s an organized effort to silence those who don't agree with Liberals. Liberals are using tactics used by tyrants (Intimidation, Character Assassination, Threats, and even Assaults). We have Liberal ICO writers verbally assaulting writers and intimidating them not to write, because they don't agree with them.  At Republican political rallies, Liberals bus in SEIU members and Teamsters to disrupt, shout down speakers, and intimidate attendees. That's not "Free Speech" either. 

If you don't agree with a speaker, listen quietly, leave or don't attend in the first place. On the web, Democrat groups are listing Republican candidate’s home addresses, thus putting their families in danger. When the Democrat leadership was informed about this, their comment was "Well they are public figures." Liberal groups are using Republican donor lists to repress and harass donors.

These tactics are unethical and "un-American."
