Ed Gardner, a communist, tries to defend looting and rioting.

The Liberal Gun Club does not and will not equate the value of property with the value of human life. We believe those who are and continue to be oppressed do not need to be told by mostly straight, white folks how to protest or how to grieve.

We firmly believe shooting people to protect property is wrong, regardless of if its your television or the corner drug store at risk.

We firmly believe shooting people because they are protesting is wrong. So is running them over with cars.

Looting and rioting IS a legitimate form of social protest, and without it it, years ago in Boston Harbor, things may have ended differently.

Looting and rioting for the sake of it, is not the same, and should be roundly condemned.

Being able to tell the difference is important. Understanding that there may be more than one type of group involved in these events is also important.

This is rich.

First of all, he defends social protest that in effect, breaks things, destroys private property (for which some families have worked for generations), and steals time from you without compensation (road interdiction via the protests and riots).

Just because.  He doesn’t respect your private property, and claims it for his own.  If he didn’t claim it for his own, he would have no right to destroy it.  Thus for communists.  It all belongs to the commune.  What you’ve worked for your whole life belongs to someone else.  God’s laws concerning the ownership of private property and covetousness don’t apply to him or his ilk.

Then this staggering proposal: his project is equated with the Boston Tea Party.  The American revolution, which removed the tyrannical control over food, lives, weapons and wealth claimed by King George, is falsely equated with control over those same things by the mob.

Moreover, the East India Company was a subject vassal of the king, not a private company owned by individuals.  The damage done all had to do with the king’s property, and “The crews of the ships attested to the fact there had been no damage to any of the ships except for the destruction of their cargoes of tea.”

He gets it exactly backwards.  The colonists protested against corporate ownership of their property, heavy taxation, gun control, and having to get permission to hunt the king’s royal forests.  God owns the animals and gave man right of dominion over them.

He wants to return to the days of tyranny, where everyone owns your property, not you.  Whether King George or the communist mob, a tyrant is a tyrant.

Go find another way to justify your destructive project, little boy.  You failed miserably with this attempt.
