I didn't twist anything. If anything, I would argue YOU are twisting words of the original comment to which I responded:

>> the United States government rolling through protesters in armored vehicles

> I'm sorry, did I miss something? Is this something that's happened (ever)?

It's the first three lines of the Narcissists Prayer[1]

    That didn't happen.
    And if it did, it wasn't that bad.
    And if it was, that's not a big deal...

    I honestly don't understand why you posted the Narcissist's Prayer; however, to clarify: the original comment I responded to referred to another comment that said, "the United States government rolling through protesters in armored vehicles," to which I replied, in part, "it's a video of a WCCO news (local MSP TV station) segment which shows an armored vehicle pushing protesters out of the way."

    The person who said I was twisting words said (emphasis mine), "There’s an enormous difference between driving slowly through a crowd of protestors with no injuries versus running over protesters with a tank."

    At no point did I nor the comment I responded to use the words, 'running over protesters with a tank'.

      No, no, no--you're the one who's right. The others are running with the "prayer."

      "United States government rolling through protesters in armored vehicles"

      "Did this really happen?"

      You: Video of it actually happening.

      Response: Yea, but that video didn't show them "running over protesters with a tank"
