like the ones who bomb abortion clinics and protest funerals? This is in response to all of the conservative outrage over the peace protests

yes, I am. In fact, i have seen way more protests that turn violent outside a clinic than I have seen non peaceful protests against the war. But that is judging with my own eyes in my own community. I realize that is not the case everywhere

They did in the 1960s and 1970s...they were hunted down like dogs and many of the ones who were innocent or just partially guilty were victims of whole conspiracies to ruin their lives...read about some of the Weathermen (Weather Underground) and the Black Panthers, and such...
If liberals bombed the things they disliked they would be killed, not mollycoddled with easy trials like Tim McVeigh and those abortion clinic bombers had...
Conservatives of the past were furious and confused about the protests of the past, but when liberals conduct peaceful protests people get angry. ...To the point of trying to destroy them...
If someone protests the war they are considered sympathetic to the enemy or against the troops. It is crazy.
There is no room for dissent.
The liberal people have to be careful because they can be truly harmed by society if the dissent from conservative opinion in general and would be really harmed if they did violent dissent.
Let me stop saying this and give an example, when the singer from the Dixie Chicks said she was ashamed of the President (and she is a singer, not an activist), there was a grass-roots movement to have the whole band's CDs boycotted. Then it moved to boycotting the label they recorded on. Then it was their concerts. This is her livelihood and she didn't personally hurt anyone.
Conservatives feel now that everyone must share their views and liberals are wary of their lives and livelihoods.

Conservatives will frequently protest issues like abortion and same intercourse marriage. besides that, they frequently disagree with liberals on how plenty taxes they'd desire to pay, greater in specific how plenty money would desire to flow to social protection, welfare...etc. For awhile liberals seemed to be the only team that replaced into protesting the conflict in iraq, however as of presently maximum conservatives are leaving in the back of the conflict they as quickly as supported like rats in a sinking deliver. So i think now they the two protest the conflict (a minimum of specific factors of it). additionally, president bush now has a 30% approval score so i think you may desire to assert liberals and conservatives the two protest the president too.

Personally, I'm outraged when ANY protest becomes violent. When anti-war protest spray paint monuments and threaten people or anti-abortion people try to terrorize women exercising their constitutional rights. So the answer would be no one with any decency would protest like that.

Yes they can. Remember the Molotov cocktails in the 60's and 70's. Heck, what about ELF with in the last decade. Burning Car lots isn't a peaceful form of protest. A fire can easily get out of hand and burn down huge parts of L.A..

Unlike lliberals, I will denounce my own when they are wrong.
Bombing abortion clinics and protesteing soldier funerals is stupid and I will tell any 'conservative' that to his face.
Now liberals, learn how to admit when a segment of your group is wrong as well.

If you can protest without violence, without obstructing traffic, without using bullhorns and the like to obstruct or interfere with other people and their activities, then go for it.
Everyone should be able to participate in publicly showing their opinion.
No one should be allowed to do it violently or in antagonistic and obstructive ways.

OK people who bomb anything, including abortion clinics, are evil.
But are you suggesting that it's the same number of people doing that versus spitting at soldiers, blocking traffic and throwing things at speakers?

I know how you feel, but sinking to someone else's level is not the answer. Isn't it ironic though, how if they bomb an abortion clinic they think they are on a "mission from God" and anti-war protesters are unpatriotic scum who should be thrown in jail.

You mean the 1 incident when one wacko bombed an abortion clinic or the other wackos that are not at all conservatives protesting funerals. I bet you are mad that they beat you to it protesting the funerals. Not only that your "peace protests" are hiding your true colors. Just please come out and admit that you are a bunch of marxists trying to push your views through a different venue. Cmon be honest about what you really are. Just display the hammer and sickle like you want to.
