Most protests today seem to serve internal, egotistical, self-righteous needs, not external ends; some protests seem to be ends in themselves – mere excuses to perpetuate a cult or carnival of outrage, on flimsy pretexts, further separating the protesters from the opportunities to learn something true.

Such protests encourage both narcissism – the belief that protest makes one special – and prejudice – a prejudgment not justified by the evidence.

Some protests are always vicious and never virtuous, such as violent protests against subjects that have not shown any violence or incitement to violence, or protests against legitimate democratic outcomes – one might not like particular outcomes, but in any political system somebody must be disappointed, so to turn that disappointment into a campaign against a legitimate democratic outcome is anti-democratic.

A laugh a minute for sure. The constitution was written by the rulers of the time and like the bible written as a guide and not a literal document to be exploited like both are now by nutbars on either side of the middle.

I doubt the founding fathers expected their missives would lead to rednecks packing open heat in StarBux.

AmeriKa the great for sure! :D
