The anarchists who perpetrate the violence we've been seeing are not liberals...they are, as they self-proclaim, anarchists.  I condemn their actions of violence.  Using their actions to demonize liberals is disingenuous at best.  As a life-long liberal I defend freedom of speech and support PEACEFUL protest.  Those "justice warriors", waring black, with faces covered with ski masks, in no way represent me or my beliefs.  I am a self-acknowledged liberal and proud of it.  I post my "liberal ideas" under my own name.  I notice you and virtually all who attack liberalism and liberals, do so anonymously.  We've all had this discussion before, but I must again say, I find such anonymity cowardly.  If you believe in what you write, be willing to claim it.
