When you are perceived as weak.
Wolves attack.
Here is the story.
The pack’s only goal is satisfaction. They do not have humanity, they do not care if you are allegedly part of a tribe or that you should be protected because of your infirmity. Again, the pack’s only goal is satisfaction.
And this is not an isolated incident and be ready to see more because it is very likely this pack will go unpunished or given just a stern talk-to and force them to promise not to do it again.
Just be ready and understand you can be perceived as a victim and attacked. And be sure they get to regret their poor victim selection process.
This does not bode well for 2020
This need to be understood as a hard and fast rule of American politics:
Whatever those on the Left complain about the Right doing, they themselves are doing worse.
I firmly believe that the only way the Left can maintain belief in their own moral superiority while engaging in the worst possible behavior is by embracing psychological projection.
A new poll from Pew Research as reported on by the Washington Examiner shows how dangerous this is going to get.
Pew: 91% Democrats see violence next in war of words
After a week that saw President Trump and his foes toss toxic words at each other, there is now a warning that the next phase could be “violence.”
Nearly 8 of 10 Americans told the Pew Research Center that supporters for both sides could “act” on the politically charged rhetoric with violence. It was higher for Democrats, 91%, than Republicans, 61%.
Americans broadly agree that elected officials should avoid using heated language because it could encourage violence. Nearly three-quarters of Americans (73%) say this, while just a quarter believe that elected officials ‘Should be able to use heated language to express themselves without worrying about whether some people may act on what they say,’” warned the center.
“While majorities in both parties say officials should avoid heated language, this view is more widely held among Democrats (83%) than Republicans (61%),” it added.
Trump is cited by a majority for stirring up the situation, but, like anything “Washington” today, there is partisan division.
Said Pew, “Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents overwhelmingly (84%) say Trump has changed political discourse for the worse.
What I’m reading is that Democrats say that Trump’s rhetoric is going to lead to more violence, which they imply means that more Right-wing Trump supporters will engage in violence spurred on by Trump.
Of course, we have seen virtually violence to that effect.
The White Supremacists nut-job who shot up the Tree of Life Synagogue did it, not because Trump was pushing antisemitism but because he thought Trump was too friendly with the Jews.
It was a member of Antifa that tried to firebomb and ICE facility using the same rhetoric as de facto Speaker of the House AOC.
So what this is, is complete projection.
It is the rhetoric of the far Left and the Far Left thugs aligned with Antifa, the Democratic Socialists, and others who are going to ramp up the violence more and more for the next election – and beyond if Trump wins again.
91% of Democrats are sure of it.
This is very bad for us.
Non violent solution to some forms of protest
A bunch of idiot environmentalist protesters Super Glued their hands to the door frame of the Raymond Congressional Building to try and get Congress to “declare a climate emergency.”
They need to spend less time protesting and more time reading the Constitution because “declare a climate emergency” means nothing.
It doesn’t grant Congress any extra powers. It doesn’t grant the President any extra powers. It doesn’t break the intractable partisan global warming issue.
It’s a meaningless gesture.
Nevertheless…

I have come up with a solution to these kinds of protests, where people tie, glue, chain, or handcuff themselves to something so the police cannot move them.
These people want to be there for the duration. They are going to have to drink to sustain their energy.
The only thing they should be given is prune juice. All-natural, healthy, prune juice.
Then lets see how long one of those protests lasts.
Lawlessness in the Big Apple
I have used this quote many times before: “Crime will expand according to our willingness to put up with it.”
It seems that in New York City, the anti-Cop attitude of the far Left – including that of Mayor Bill de Blasio himself – has hamstrung the NYPD into being totally unable to defend themselves.
In two separate incidents NYPD officers where doused with buckets of water and had objects thrown at them. In once case, a bucket was thrown at the officer and it hit one of them in the head.

The police in each case did not seem to do anything to stop the people harassing and assaulting them while they were doing their jobs.
This, as we have seen in places like Portland, will only make the anti-cop actions more aggressive next time.
Instead of buckets of water, it might be bottles or bricks or caustic chemicals.
These people have proven that the police cannot control the scene.
I would speculate that is because the police are more afraid of lawsuits or administrative punishments for tackling and arresting some teenager for throwing a bucket of water than they are getting pelted by thrown objects.
The question is, how long until the NYPD give up entirely? Why should anyone want to be NYPD at this point? Clearly, most of the population of the city as well as the city government hates them. The job gets more dangerous by the day because the local politicians undermine them.
My suggestion is they should all just quit, and let the city descend into chaos. Let the wealthy few pay for all the private security they can afford and let the rest of the city turn into the set of a John Carpenter movie.
