Sorry to come right back at you, but you can't be serious that its the Left using violence. I mean, we have to have some common point of departure to discuss these matters. Are you suggesting the Far Right did not participate in violence in Charlottesville? Just really confused about this statement. Or are you talking here about something else?
No Tibs. I'll stand up and point to Dylan Roof, and to abortion bombings and to Charlottesville. But it pales massively in comparison to the relentless bullying being driven by the Left. Since you're on the MSM side, you don't know what it's like to be told daily, non stop, that you are a racist, an Islamaphobe, a homophobe....when you know yourself, you know your life, you know what you stand for. The common American is fed up with it. You don't turn on a sitcom and see this. Or late night comedy. Or NBC or ABC. You just don't. Watch House of Cards. Any show. See the veiled or direct insults thrown at middle America endlessly.
Couple that with speakers from our side being persistently denied the right to speak, violently. To seeing countless articles and news stations calling for violence against Conservatives. BLM assassinating police. The riots after the election, the 200+ felony convictions. Assassination attempts. Knock out. Black on white crime that goes under reported. I've posted countless links. Many here have. We could go on and on.
Perception is reality and the perception is that the Left means us harm. We hear it. We see it preached. We witness it. And we've seen the frequency and intensity of it increase.
Don't try saying it isn't so. It really is.
