    We should all stand united against the use of violent acts like those reported today against political and media figures. I condemn any such acts of violence, they have no place in our politics or society at all.

        I just want to know where you're getting your information. I work with some local campaigns and have been to many protests and I've never met anyone from Antifa. I know they exist but I've never found the at a Democratic rally. Weird.

        I agree. And kudos to law enforcement for handling this efficiently. But note that not too long ago @NancyPelosi stated “If there is collateral damage....then so be it.” The violent rhetoric has come from a Democratic leadership & the left is STILL trying to high horse us!

        Now isn't the time for this but since you went there. Pres. Trump was the main one that set this crazy talk off from the start of his campaign up until now. (i.e. Calling the media the ENEMY of the people).😒 So your selective memory needs to be restarted. It starts with him.🤔

        He didn’t call for violence. He was stating facts. Snowflakes struggle with facts and real life.

        Proof? Evidence? Anyone you know getting government assistance of any kind? My mother can’t live without her social security or Medicare and my daughter needed the ACA for insurance when she got laid off. That’s not BS. That’s survival.

        She paid into SS but unfortunately so am I. I know I won’t see a penny of that money. Why aren’t YOU taking care of them? They aren’t my people. They are your people. My people suffer bc I get robbed for your bleeding heart.

        I’m on social security and medicare, as well. George Bush borrowed the money we all paid into SS to help fund his wars. Vote Blue and protect your SS and that of your relatives.

        What about the rhetoric that inflames and possibly inspires acts like this? Like calling the media the "enemy of the people". What's your stance on that?

        Or calling all Trump supporters "racists," accusing Trump and anyone who supports him of collusion with Russian to overthrow the election, calling all conservatives Russian bots, calling the police facsists, all GOP bigots ... Nothing inflammatory there.

        Some Trump supporters are racists. Fact. Some of Trump’s inner circle did collude with Russia. Fact. Many Twitter accounts supporting Trump are Russian bots. Fact. Many in the GOP are noted bigots. Fact. You’re the only one speaking in absolutes. It’s not helping your argument.

        There are racists across the spectrum, on the extreme left and the right. "Bigot" can mean anything. Businessmen or diplomats having contact with Russia isn't collusion. Not every conservative is a Trump supporter or supports everything he says or has done.

        I never said there weren’t so this point makes no sense. Why are you now putting “bigot” in quotes? What’s the point you’re trying to make? Having contact no, attempting to receive assistance in an election, yes. By definition. No one said that about conservatives.

        Because the term bigot is used as a label from leftists to shut down dissenting opinions. Hence, the quotes, indicating that the term is being misapplied in many cases, as is the term racist.

        Are those terms sometimes misused? Yes. By all “spectrums”? Yes. So if both sides are guilty I don’t see the point of your argument. It’s a zero sum game.
