They always lump Muslim and Latino violence in with the right, and they always try to lie about people trying to assassinate right wing leaders.

All crime data is skewed.

but the organizations producing that data are cooking the books so they can smear the Right with the Left's crimes.
SPLC needs to be a huge tribunall commission. A commission where the head witness doesn't die in a small boat on the water... by a gunshot to the head and say he had a heart attack...

Let's not repeat this...
quote:

Former CIA Director William Colby (1973–1976) was found dead in 1996 after disappearing during a solo canoe trip in Maryland, with the autopsy indicating he died of hypothermia/heart attack after his canoe capsized, rather than being shot. Known for testifying about illegal CIA activities ("family jewels"), some conspiracy theories emerged, but authorities ruled his death accidental.

Common sense has proved to me that this is true - the Leftists are responsible for almost all politically associated violence and their 'voter base' is responsible for 3/4 of all other violence.

There are no groups on the right dedicated to 'any means necessary' tactics and no population that relies on violence for their entertainment or means of existence.

the leftists only have 3 tools = propaganda, corruption, and violence.

Idk what it is but I think Batya is hot AF. She's also really smart. She's another woman that grew up a leftist and over time realized they were pedaling bullshite and had enough integrity to admit it to herself and begin speaking out

You can see Geraldo's heart breaking over his narrative being dismantled with facts.

3/4 is way too low.

Democrat voters are statistically the most violent population in the west. It isn't close, and other Democrat voters know this, thus the constant lies.

It is more like 4/5 or even 9/10. They are a violent lot.

Look at the damage just last week alone in our state.

I remember getting into arguments with leftist following Charlie Kirk’s assassination and then pulling the crap graph/statistics from ADL. To which I’d ask please tell me the last right wing violence you remember. They would always refer to Dylan Roof and then hit a dead end. It’s absolute crap that this is even up for debate. The left is inherently violent and incapable of impartiality, treat them accordingly.

All Muslim violence is put in the category of Right Wing.

Muslims vote overwhelmingly Democrat.

Exactly. What’s even more damning is they have the actual data that demonstrates the patterns we all know are true. It completely refutes their mindset. Yet they refuse to break from their false beliefs. They are zealots.

We've been rediscovering this truth ever since Mark Twain (or somebody else) said "there are lies, damned lies and statistics". On that spectrum, news media statistics would be classified as damned statistics.

Brietbart compiled two separate lists of politically motivated violence (from 2016 to 2020) committed by the left which showcased nearly a thousand incidents ranging from death threats, to Trump supporters getting shot to people getting assaulted for wearing MAGA hats to fricking leftists leavinf dead animal carcasses on the doorsteps of DHS staffers (Godfather style) etc. All sources were cited too. It doesn't include all the violence from 2020 to today (Kirk assassination, the MAGA kid getting slapped by an adult, Butler PA, etc).

Probably 90% of the incidents we never heard of because it was only reported on local news stations (like an old man getting assaulted in a Mexican restaurant for wearing a Maga hat).

Any time a leftist makes the claim "the right is more violent" I always post these links and challenge them to find half the amount of incidents of violence committed by the right. That's when they move the goal posts...

Stephen Crowder was discussing this recently. He said that each person charged in the J6 protest was counted as seperate right wing violence.
The George Floyd riots cost a billion dollars in damage and 50 deaths, it was only recorded as a protest.
