however, it does illustrate your card carrying membership to the uniparty.

Perhaps if no rocks or bottles were being tossed about?

Perhaps if people really understood what it means to peacefully protest. Or maybe many do - but the bad actors generally show up to facilitate a situation that would not otherwise exist.

The difference between now and then is that it is not an organic protest of anything when one is being paid to act out. Or maybe money was involved back then as well.

Either way - there is going to be a point of no return - and eighty million people do not give one fine shit about the prosing of imaginary 'kings'. Maybe that is the trouble for you mender - you are conflating past into present. It is not at all the same people - it is not at all the same issue. Wakey up!!!
