Yeah I have a liberal friend (trashy I know) who post stuff on Facebook (lame I know) and while she is willing to have conversations her other liberal friends just come in with the usual 'you're a racist or bigot' argument.

One said that I was promoting facism because I didn't agree that the FAA cuts caused those plane crashes earlier in the year.

You must not have read my first response.


Ah, yes, 4 paragraphs in, I do see that you mentioned your gut.

I was asking for evidence for OP to support his/her position. I also wanted to clarify the type of evidence OP would accept to counter his/her beliefs


Why? Why, specifically, have you come here to counter OP's opinion? It's one thing to discuss a topic or have an opinion, it's a whole other thing to have an AGENDA when posting.

2. Are you saying no one on the left/democrat has ever been assassinated by someone on the right/republican?

Gabby Giffords (attempted assassination)
Minnesota state legislators LINK



The ignorance of many of you is astounding. MN incident was carried out by a Tim Waltz staffer complete with "no kings" material in his car.

Gabby Giffords was shot the same day a Republican Judge, also in the crowd, was killed.

You typed out a lot of words just to prove how ignorant you are.

Clearly another progressive that supports violence trying to justify what their team is doing. That is all this is. Very common tactic to play the moderate card while defending their actions.

That's because I have no respect for anyone aligning there self progressive ideology, and there's at least 20 reasons that are non-negotiables on that.

This is not some "both sides" thing, I am holding the line on sensible and sane ideals that are rooting in the founding principles of this country.

Liberals hate everything about America (although they sure do appreciate the fruits of our capitalistic system), and I LOVE America. I want my children to inherent the same America and childhood that I had, and I am honestly willing to die for that if it comes down to it.

Since you are at least attempting to provide some data and engage with the topic...

Missing my point completely. So having a homemade "no kings" flier in your car makes someone a DEM? Seems a pretty low standard. I am asking for OP and you now to tell me the facts that 100% make someone a DEM (or a REP)?

Political ideology is not so easily clear cut. My point is that violence and rhetoric come from both sides.

Boelter - MN assassin - was an evangelical Christian and "Trump supporter" LINK

Not a Walz staffer that I could find. Please provide evidence.

Routh - attempted Trump assassin - all over the place: donated to Gabbard, voted for Trump in 2016, voted Dem in 2024 LINK

Crooks - attempted Trump assassin - donated $15 dollars to Biden at 17 years old and registered REP at 18 LINK

People are highly complex. Motivations and ideology are much more confusing than media or politicians want it say that it is. I agree it is much simpler and easier to call me ignorant.
