re: “The unhinged left is endorsing and applauding shooting Republicans,”

Sure it is. You suggested it when you made excuses for the left and condemned the right for doing the same things.

What does it have to do with John Osoff?
Classic guilt by association.
The majority of the funds coming in to support his campaign are from those who agree with and endorse what happened last week. That's the point of the ad.

That was a specific reference to the attack ad. I never said that Bernie always elevated political discussion, only that the attack ad lowers it. I also stated that Osoff (and Bernie) have never endorsed violence.

Only allow them to eat non-organic, non sugar-substitute, meat-based meals, with a heavy emphasis on pork.
They either stick to their principles and starve to death or eat to stay alive and become pariahs in their own society.

I like it, it is real, the sad truth is this is very ugly and hiding it allows it to do more damage that it can claim it is "not responsible for".

Lol, now the majority of Osoff supporters endorse violence. Wow.

Those funding Ossoff are not supporting Jon Ossoff. They are funding him because he has a D by his name.
His name could be Scrotie McBoogerballs and the Hollywood left would be pumping money in his campaign if he ran as a Democrat.

So that means they're endorsing violence? Lol
Posted on 6/19/17 at 4:27 pm to cahoots
Violence committed by left wing loons harms the Democratic Party. Those financing the campaigns don't want to see it happen. To suggest otherwise is ridiculous.

Look...are you upset with the ad, because it does nothing to further political discourse? If so, how about criticizing Bernie Sanders and the left for not furthering political discourse. Let's not play the "we are on the higher ground" card when it is the left who contributed to breakdown of the discourse. It's been 5 months since Trump took office and it has been nothing but attacks since. Severed heads, shootings, riots....and you wanted to pick out this ad saying it did not contribute to political discourse.
I was just wondering why you decided this was the opportune time and event to make this statement?
CNN and MSNBC reporters are reporting today that the shooting was at "..Some degree self-inflicted..."
The reason discourse has broken down is because the left doesn't seem capable of understanding their role in the breakdown.

I'm not playing the "we are on higher ground card." I have been critical of the left and the media. I was critical of the right in this particular thread, and this board somehow equates that with blind loyalty to the left.
You can't make a critical post about the right without being labeled as a left wing apologist.
Create an altar and try it if you don't believe me.
Which goes back to what I said before. Political discourse is less about honest discussion and more about getting your punches in and we are all worse for it.

I haven't taken a punch at you, cahoots. Rush had quotes today from the shooter that exactly matched quotes from Bernie. The quotes from the shooter were to the garage mechanic just before he left on his killing spree.
Now, you could say that Bernie is not responsible for people taking his slogans to the extreme of violence. But why does it never occur in the opposite direction?
Why don't right wing loons shout "Make America Great Again" and shoot Nancy Pelosi?

There's a guy serving 25 years for firing rounds into the White House in November 2011. Does he count as a right wing militant or nah?

Then humor me. Criticize Bernie Sanders for saying Trump was destroying Democracy.

You can. However, when you defend the left when it has been pointed out that the left had been more guilty of the hateful rhetoric for the past 7 months...well, it does reek of apologist.
If you want to appear as if you are being fair and not partisan, you should criticize the left as much as you do the right, and vice versa. I admit that i am not unbiased. I do call out the right at times, but I am conservative.
However, more to your point....I don't like those type ads, either. My point was that the ad is more a reaction to what the left has been doing the last 7 months or so, so I don't have a HUGE problem with it. Every severed head, and resist document and shooting displayed in that ad was direct action on the part of the left. And most of those things have been supported by the left and in fact, the shooting is now being blamed on Scalise by the left. THAT is why ads like this happen.

Yep. Liberals have painted the whole of the republican party as racist, sexist, xenophobes for years. Now they don't want to wear the yoke of this assholes behavior around their necks, even though their bloody rhetoric no doubt incited him in some way.
What goes around comes around.

Add Scott Pelley of CBS to the list.

I have no idea if he was right wing. Why don't you link his face book info. We KNOW that the shooter at the ball park was a Bernie worker and devotee of all that is left wing cable news. Do you want to dispute that?
