What is immoral is believing it's just to violate the rights of the innocent in some perverse pursuit of "social justice". It is deeply saddening that this illiberalism has risen to such prominence in contemporary political discourse

This disingenuousness is pathetic, yet many have chosen to embrace it rather than come to terms with the fact that it is possible to condemn both murder and the destruction of property. Justice cannot come from the suffering of innocent people.

After clearly defending violence, or more specifically the destruction of property, she decided to blatantly lie about doing so. Shameless.

Simply, "violence" refers to the use of force with the intent to injure, damage, or destroy.
The destruction of property is violence. In regard to speech, while it can bring about violence, it cannot be violent in itself.
These attempts to conflate offensive speech with...

These attempts to conflate offensive speech with...
...violence and excuse certain forms of legitimate violence are simply egregious. That said, such sophistic argumentation is necessary when one has set out to defend the indefensible. Otherwise, these ideologues would have to be honest and tell all the innocent men and women...
...who have been victimized that they are expendable in the grand scheme of politics that said ideologues have engaged in. When you start with the premise that all individuals possess unalienable rights, among them the right to property, it becomes impossible to justify...
...the atrocious behavior that has been observed nationwide at the hands of criminals and extremists. Unfortunately, as has been observed over the course of the past few days, "progressive" activists have decided it best to commit themselves to such sophistry in defense of evil.
Great videos from the LA riots of 1992 where one can clearly see the severe historical consequences of rioting and looting.
This is what the aforementioned ideologues are defending. Again, evil.

Those whose property was destroyed deserve justice, and all who defended these atrocities should be ashamed. To believe that one's perceived good intentions justify these crimes against others is to be willfully villainous. Despicable.

In case anyone needed any more information about what depraved ideologues have decided to defend.
https://twitter.com/TheoKeith/status/1278799536648007683?s=19
Certain ideologues continue to demonstrate their depravity.

Another manifestation of this evil ideology is the notion that property destruction is not violence, an absurd claim. According to this sadistic view, that which belongs to others is expendable in the pursuit of "social justice". This extremism must be condemned.
Again, this is what the aforementioned ideologues are defending. Simply atrocious.

This nonsense perfectly illustrates why the 2+2=4 debate is important. As with the math case, ideologues employ rhetorical tricks and fallacious reasoning confuse and distort descriptions to advance a narrative, be it 2+2=5 or looting is nonviolent.

A related thread which demonstrates a clear disdain for property rights. As I said before, the property of others mean nothing to certain ideologues. This is vile and reprehensible.
https://twitter.com/Andrewmd5/status/1296188771931627520?s=19
Another fine thread documenting the destruction being defended by radical ideologues.
https://twitter.com/Julio_Rosas11/status/1298023116296331265?s=19
This is simply egregious. @jaketapper should be ashamed of this obvious partisanship.
https://twitter.com/NickFondacaro/status/1298806065535094785?s=19
Further irresponsible coverage by @CNN. Pathetic.
https://twitter.com/JusticeTristan/status/1298828614851416065?s=19
Yet another example demonstrating that the rights of others mean nothing to certain ideologues. Property destroyed, livelihoods taken away, lives ruined due to the devastation...all totally acceptable to those who view others as a means and not an end.

This ideological aversion to the pursuit of truth is truly contemptible.
https://twitter.com/CNNPolitics/status/1299114559500943362?s=19
It appears @tedwheeler is a greater coward than originally thought. Rather than enforce the law and end the rioting, he has decided to move so that he is no longer in danger. Pathetic.

The thoughts of a violent ideologue. This destructive radicalism must be condemned, for it adverse to the wellbeing of the people and their rights. Any movement that seeks to justify harm done to the innocent is one that poses a great danger to liberty.
https://twitter.com/FeministaJones/status/1298924412352245760?s=19
This behavior must be stopped, and all politicians and activists that have defended it or minimized the damage inflicted should be ashamed.
Further, when researching the case in question, the BLM response serves as another example of their irrationality.

As has been established already, the presumption among the BLM crowd is typically that the police officer is guilty of murder, usually assumed to be racially motivated. However, as with countless other cases, the facts don't support the position held by BLM. Evidence...

...the formation of such mobs may become a regular occurrence, a phenomenon that politicians, like @JoeBiden and @KamalaHarris, have chosen to capitalize on for political gain, as evident by their comments on Michael Brown, the shooting of whom resulted in the Ferguson riots.
