    Umm cowbee, have you considered that by the oppressor’s own laws, norms, or terms the violence is legitimate? Whereas the stinky oppressed are doing illegal bad violence or terrorism.

  • Hey, that’s not fair. Oftentimes liberals really do differentiate between the two pictures.

    They just decide that violence against the oppressed is ok especially if it preserves the status quo (and the flow of their treats). Violence enacted by the oppressed always needs to be tut-tuted though, for only pacifism is a truly virtuous and acceptable response because anything else might threaten the status quo (and the flow of their treats).
