The proud boys started as a response to antifa. The far left (almost mainstream) had been becoming less tolerant and more authoritarian over time. It got to the point where they didn’t just hiss or counter protest conservatives, they actively tried to shut them down and had full on meltdowns at their presence being announced. A mainstream conservative like ben shapiro wasn’t just disliked, the left had complete meltdowns trying to shut his speeches down. Shapiro is very jewish, saved himself for marriage, and has probably never even jay walked in his life. He’s a harmless nerd with mainstream conservative politics today, and historically (5 years ago?) nothing about his policy is beyond yawn worthy. He caused riots. Then there’s milo who is also jewish. He’s also gay married to a black man. He’s certainly controversial and provocative but hardly a nazi etc. The loons literally set Berkley on fire and smashed it to stop him from speaking. The protesters also attacked people who didn’t agree with their take on the situation. Now there’s black conservative candace owens being harassed and targeted at speaking events and also mobbed and harassed just getting a coffee at starbucks. The left is just totally intolerant and its only natural that the tribal types that mirror them on the right are going to respond

Proud boys founder Gavin Mcginnes was on a similar circuit to milo and shapiro. He’s mostly an entertainer like milo. He was constantly attacked and harassed. That started to escalate to physical attack. His fans and the people generally sick of this rallied around this and started their own tribal push back. The proud boys morphed out of a joke mens club in to almost a security/protection mob. Of course there was tribalism and hate for the left there, but this whole proud boys that you see today is born from and a reaction to the growing hostility and aggression on the left. This is how polarization works. This isn’t an excuse or justification for the proud boys, its an explanation for how polarization works.

I have asked for evidence outside of brawling with antifa of proud boys violence. There is little to no incidents that I have seen. For a group that goes looking for fights, there really isn’t much there outside of antifa brawls. The last event where Ngo was attacked, there were no proud boys in sight. I didn’t see them getting in any fights. Antifa beat up random people with no proud boys in sight. I posted the video of the white haired old man getting his face smashed in, the bald guy getting his head smashed open, and the guy on the ground getting group stomped. Not a proud boy, nazi, or fascist in sight. This wasn’t even in the same part of town. Moving on to the past weekend, same thing. No proud boy violence that I saw (feel free to correct me). We saw antifa attack plenty of people. Outside of the attacks was an underlying hatred and rage thrown at random people and the cops. These aren’t noble people. Marxism isn’t a noble cause. The method they spread their message is awful.


The argument that the proud boys are Nazi adjacent or whatever also appears to be hyperbolic. They have plenty people of color. I posted the 4th of July video itt where the key speaker was Milo. Again a jew who’s gay married to a black man. Hardly something a bunch of white nationalists would celebrate. The video also shows them removing a guy with an antisemitic sign. I also posted a video of milo and Mcginnes tongue kissing at a public event. I don’t agree with their politics, tribalism, violence, provocations, how they socialize, etc. I’m sure they attract characters with nefarious intent. That said, the characterization they get is hyperbolic.

The spin that there is something noble about antifa is a total fraud. There’s nothing to celebrate about either side. Both these groups are a consequence of polarization. The worse the polarization gets, the larger the mobs will get and more frequently we will see radicalization

These are the type of post that hijack the threads. It's clear MrWooke wants me to defend my rationale, not the rationale of my argument. Maybe you should put these type of people in their own thread. Your resident narcissist do this constantly, and the toxic cult then demands the person this is being done against be ostracized. He wants me to talk about what I think of JV, not CHAZ, as if talking about JV has any bearing on CHAZ. Why is the one this gets done to, always the one who is the problem child? You have a series of posters who always make it about the arguer, then the left wing cult jumps on board.

Once again, if we can talk about people rationales, instead of their argument, why can't I go in depth on MrWookie's narcissistic rationale?

False imprisonment? No, citizen's arrest:

Quote:
Under Washington law, a private person can conduct a citizen’s arrest for a
misdemeanor if the misdemeanor: (1) was committed in the citizen’s presence and
(2) constituted a breach of the peace. State v. Gonzales, 24 Wn. App. 437, 439,
604 P.2d 168 (1979); Guijosa v. Wal-Mart Stores, 101 Wn. App. 777, 791, 6 P.3d
583 (2000).

A person can also conduct a citizen’s arrest for felonies. See State v.
Malone, 106 Wn.2d 607, 724 P.2d 364 at FN1 (1986) citing State v. Miller, 103
Wn.2d 792, 698 P.2d 554 (1985) and State v. Gonzales, 24 Wn. App. 437, 604
P.2d 168 (1979).


Note that nobody, at any point, choked, shot, or electrocuted the accused thief, even after he took off running.

On Robespierre:

Quote:
On June 4, 1794, Robespierre was almost unanimously elected president of the National Convention. Six days later, a law was passed that suspended a suspect’s right to public trial and to legal assistance.

...

[On] July 28–Robespierre and 21 others were guillotined without a trial

Yeah, still no evidence he witnessed it. It's not unreasonable to think he assumed he was the thief based on various factors, such as being nearby, etc. We don't know what led them to think he was the thief. EDIT: FYI: This same type of vigilante behavior is what makes the Aubrey murder, murder.

So you're saying you don't have all the facts, and thus are not able to determine for yourself what was happening there?

Based on the facts I do have, it's false imprisonment.

no, because an essential element of "False Imprisonment" is that the detention occurred without legal justification

you don't have evidence that it happened without justification

(6) "Restrain" means to restrict a person's movements without consent and without legal authority in a manner which interferes substantially with his or her liberty.

Nice trick. The burden is on the accuser. I have evidence they false imprisoned this guy. I have no evidence this is a citizen's arrest. You have to prove it's a citizens arrest, I don't have to disprove it.

06-16-2020 , 01:07 PM
you are accusing people of "False Imprisonment", so the burden is on you

and you've mounted an affirmative defense. The video shows evidence of false imprisonment, it does not have evidence of a citizens arrest.

06-16-2020 , 01:09 PM
you have to prove that the detention was without legal authority in order to establish that it was false imprisonment, at the outset - before any "affirmative defense" is raised


you cannot say "well they didn't prove there was legal authority" - that is textbook burden-shifting

the police have left

you want to argue it is anarchy, then when the people assume a police role, you say it is an illegal detention

There is no legal authority to forcibly inhibit the movement of another simply because they accused that person of theft. This comes up alot in shoplifting cases where store security stops someone on mere suspicion of theft. Retailers pay a lot of tort claims for this type of thing. In fact, if it turns out the stop is bad, the security guy is fired, and they hope that person does not press criminal charges, or more likely, a civil lawsuit.

Do you really believe that store security guards cannot detain suspected shoplifters?



I quoted & linked the express legal authority, and you come back saying "there's no legal authority".

What are you doing here?

Hilarious. So when you try to delegitimize lefties w.r.t. CHOP because people have guns and lefties are not criticizing it, that's just good arguing. But when leftists point out how you don't criticize right wingers with guns doing the same thing, and therefore your whole point is not a sincere argument, that's narcissism and arguing about the arguer. If the same argument you made is somehow invalid when applied to you when you made the same one, I'd say it's because your original argument is invalid, too.

tort claims, gtfo of here...


Quote:
Every state has passed a law that grants some level of immunity to retailers that exercise reasonable care when they identify and detain a shoplifter, so as to minimize the chance that a store can be sued for detaining an actual shoplifter or acting in good faith upon facts that would make a reasonable person believe that a suspect had shoplifted merchandise.

Hey, just to warn you, itslyinginvegas finds this kind of deflection to "things he's actually said" VERY INAPPROPRIATE and he might ragequit on you at any second now that you're pointed out this inconsistency

pretty much every single shoplifting case begins with store security detaining a suspect
