JD Vance's visit to Vermont ski resort interrupted by pro-Ukraine demonstrators after Zelenskyy exchange​

Vance, who brought his family to Sugarbush Resort in Warren, Vermont, was greeted by a half-mile gauntlet of protesters holding pro-Ukraine signs Saturday. There appeared to be hundreds in the crowd.

The protesters carried signs calling Vance "Nazi scum," accusing him of being a "traitor" and telling him to "go ski in Russia."

Fox News was also told Vance and his family planned to stay at a four-star inn near the resort, but they moved to an undisclosed location after seeing the ruckus.

I imagine a lot of liberals there, to be expected.

How does peaceful protest demonstrate intolerance?

Harassing a man and his family is an acceptable form of protest? He was there to go skiing

Harassing a man and his family is an acceptable form of protest?

That didn't answer my question.

 

[NxNW]

Maybe he's in Biden's basement?

That didn't answer my question.

And you didn’t answer mine.

You first.

Harassing a man and his family on a skiing trip is not a peaceful protest

No one answered mine.

Sure it is. Was anyone hurt? Any property damaged?

A man’s family was endangered. Apparently you have no problem with that

A man’s family was endangered.

No, they weren't. Unless you count the risk of a papercut from all the people holding cardboard signs by the side of the road? Spare me the hysterics.

A half mile line of protesters is not a safe place to be with your family.

I wouldn’t feel safe there

lol, this must be that old-fashioned masculinity that Vance goes on about. Being confronted with protesters apparently now constitutes being “endangered.” I’m so glad we have the New Right to show us betas what it’s like to be a manly man.

Why not? It's not like they were throwing things at the vehicles, making threats, or otherwise engaging in violence. Vance and his family were safely ensconced in their armored Suburbans, surrounded by Secret Service agents. There is no indication that anyone thought they were in any danger. Uncomfortable? Sure. Inconvenienced? Sounds like it. But that's how you make a protest effective.

”The protesters carried signs calling Vance "Nazi scum," accusing him of being a "traitor" and telling him to "go ski in Russia."

Oh no, they said mean things! Dang 1st Amendment!

I wouldn’t feel safe there

I watched the video in the OP. Didn't seem the least bit threatening to me.

ETA: And you still haven't explained how this protest shows intolerance.

I've heard this before. I didn't mean to offend you in our previous conversation.

Unarmed protesters almost overthrew the government remember? Was anyone checking for bear spray and flag poles?
