    I strongly disagree with the premise of this article, that it’s a tough choice. Appeasement doesn’t work. Target pulling merch just tells the domestic terrorists that threats work.

      The unfortunate reality is the threat or actual use of violence is what they listen to.

      The irony that we never here of the scale of violence for Left causes like this never seems to be found but ya know “both sides”. 👀

          As someone in Seattle during CHOP/CHAZ, if it’s anything like that, you and everyone saying ‘raised to the ground’ is full of shit.
