I'm sure he will be surprised at the crowd's reaction, as well as at the number of kindred spirits he finds.Aggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11089648434324058300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2970975545475697571.post-40939456673114489232020-06-20T20:31:54.246-04:002020-06-20T20:31:54.246-04:00I jumped to my conclusion merely because I have se...I jumped to my conclusion merely because I have seen absolutely ZERO evidence either substantial or circumstantial, of any involvement of right-wing participants.

They universally believe regulation is good because you cannot trust the stupid people who just want to make a living.

Opportunism suggests rational thought and calculation.<br /><br />Hoffer's take is that the thugs have a deep craving, almost like some diabetics craving sugar. It isn't "Hey, this flat-screen would look good in my bedroom" kind of thing. It is a primal need to feel powerful and important and to have control of your destiny. The actual dogma or ideology is window-dressing.Eaton Rapids Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09102166969915526172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2970975545475697571.post-40694064392534931952020-06-20T10:03:10.139-04:002020-06-20T10:03:10.139-04:00I used to work with a guy whose favorite expressio...I used to work with a guy whose favorite expression for exercising discipline for miscreants was "Lay the lumber on them".

I'd be curious to see statistics on the race of those arrested... of course, from what I've seen there were times that rioters were ignored and those defending themselves were arrested, like in Albuquerque.Jonathan Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10476185257203343474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2970975545475697571.post-38307165369288814162020-06-20T08:43:52.541-04:002020-06-20T08:43:52.541-04:00Opportunism is a observable character trait.
