Heavy handed?
Yeah, right.
Women and children are leading us, it is the way with Satan...it happens every time Gods hand is held back by a foolish people.

According to Wikipedia:
Townhall is an American politically conservative website, print magazine and radio news service. Previously published by the Heritage Foundation, it is now owned and operated by Salem Communications. The website features more than 80 columns (both syndicated and exclusive) by a variety of writers and commentators. The website also publishes news articles from the Associated Press. [my emphasis]
Perhaps the new ownership explains this column...

Nice ad hominem.

Now, I was lamenting that Townhall chose to publish this column, whereas they once were a conservative voice in the wilderness.

You are very, very sensitive in your defense of the website, FRiend.

You appear to have no issues with the website chiming into the “Trump failed” chorus while you attack anyone with an opinion differing from yours. How progressive of you.

BTW - The author cited when you posted is Jacob Sullum, not Terry Jeffrey.

By all means — place “yet another opinion” articles like this in Breaking News

Good article but it’s not Breaking News.

Twice now you attempt to insult my intelligence because I criticized Townhall. Apparently truth hurts.

I know that, but that moron who bitched about Townhall.com doesn’t obviously know the difference between an author of an op-ed and a publisher.

What a pathetic septic tank article. The rioters were breaking Fed laws by attacking Fed property. They all should be arrested. Whoever wrote this article has some serious brain damage in their “logic and reasoning” centers.

I know that, and I didn’t post it in Breaking News. It must have gotten there by mistake.

Why don’t want Townhall to take the heat for what they publish?

I did correct it though after I realized that I had Jacob Sullum’s op-ed open

Agreed - you had the correct name in the second post to me (which I had not seen when I wrote my initial reply).

I don’t play the closest attention but seems to me most of their stuff that gets posted here is lib.

They still claim to be “conservative” but put out so much lib garbage.

In response to largely peaceful demonstrations against police brutality that have been punctuated by criminal behavior

The writer of the article needs to replace "punctuated" with "characterized". Anyone who wants to pretend what's been going on in Portland is "largely peaceful" is either a shameless liar or a complete fool.

Who is the smarmy little schlub that wrote this drivel? Is George Will working for Townhall now?
