First off let's address the issue of squadism http://www.nationmaster.com/encyclopedia/Squadism. Through out history, rightly or wrongly, militant activists have engaged in street fights with each other. An early example of this was the Red Front http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotfrontk%C3%A4mpferbund, which battled with the S.A. The problem with this tactic is that those on the authoritarian ultra-Right tend to have what I'd like to call a martyrs complex. Basicly they will act like total jerks, and try to provoke confrontations. Then if and when they get there butts whooped, they feel that they have born there cross. Eventhough it's partialy there own fault that they are treated so roughly. Yet in the end, they are still able to play the victim. Well I'm here to tell you that it's the clerical fascists, like the dominionists among others, who are the persecutors, not the persecuted. Just remember though, you all, we should not be initiating force in dealing with our adversaries. Aggression is not only wrong, it is also just plain stupid. Plus it makes us look bad. Lastly it was not only pro-proposition 8 supporters who were attacked. Opponants were as well. http://www.dailykos.com/story/2008/10/25/16650/124/636/642126 So remember, be on guard, but do not pick fights with the bone headed reactionaries.
