re: #459 reine.de.tout

You may think that, and go ahead and keep thinking it if you wish, but you are wrong. Just wrong. What’s going on right now with this and KT is almost exactly the same thing, the same defenses and excuses being made, during the days of KT’s anti-tea-party comments. The same.

Well, I can’t speak for others, but personally I have no issue with KT having concerns/doubts/not being supportive of the protests. He may even be right about them.

That being said, part of what bothers me is just the way he has generally come off as a bit gleeful at finding stuff that he feels supports his view. It sometimes feels almost, to me, as if he wrote it all off from the start and wants it to match his early negative opinion of it, rather than being disappointed that it seems not to be taking a path he could support.

I’m also a bit uneasy with his seeming enthusiasm towards police actions against the protesters. Now, they may or may not deserve it, but it’s hard for me to get behind someone that seems to be cheering violence of any kind, even self defense.

I’m not saying KT is intending to come across this way or that it’s the way he feels, but I can only state how he has been coming across to me.
