I won't go through all the effort of sourcing as this is easily searchable, but: > If you support a president who separates children from their parents Obama's Homeland Security secretary, Johnson, confirmed with NPR's Mary Louise Kelly that this predates the Trump administration. > terrorize your elected officials AOC has said that the whole point of protesting is to "make people uncomfortable." A professor at Wellesley wrote an article in Slate that "Violence can be an important tool in protests." The destruction of government buildings has certainly occurred in recent protests, there are dozens of instances of this. > build gallows outside the building Even the irony in this! Black Lives Matter protestors built a guillotine in front of Jeff Bezos' DC home. I support Black Lives Matter to be clear, but obviously this whole "Nazi by association" schtick leads to the conclusion that we would all, in fact, be Nazis.

> Obama's Homeland Security secretary, Johnson, confirmed with NPR's Mary Louise Kelly that this predates the Trump administration. Do you have numbers on how many children were separated from their parents? How many parents were repatriated without their children? How many kids died in custody and of how many they lost track of? > Black Lives Matter protestors built a guillotine in front of Jeff Bezos' DC home. Did they also invade Bezos' home with the intention to drag him out? > obviously this whole "Nazi by association" schtick leads to the conclusion that we would all, in fact, be Nazis. When you think about that, do you feel comfortable at endorsing the policies that caused kids to be permanently separated from their parents? Kids that died without the comfort of being with their families? HRW did a report on that https://www.hrw.org/report/2018/02/28/freezer/abusive-conditions-women-and-children-us-immigration-holding-cells https://www.hrw.org/report/2018/02/28/freezer/abusive-condit...
