I strongly disagree with the premise of this article, that it’s a tough choice. Appeasement doesn’t work. Target pulling merch just tells the domestic terrorists that threats work.

The unfortunate reality is the threat or actual use of violence is what they listen to.

The irony that we never here of the scale of violence for Left causes like this never seems to be found but ya know “both sides”. 👀

I’m pretty sure BLM razed Chicago to the ground a couple years ago. Not sure why folks who used to live in the area keep pretending it isn’t a smoking crater.

As someone in Seattle during CHOP/CHAZ, if it’s anything like that, you and everyone saying ‘raised to the ground’ is full of shit.

Well, yeah, threats do work. Because enough domestic terrorists have followed through with them in the last ten years that taking them seriously must be part of the threat model.
