The right-wing is trying to meme the Alexandria/VA mass shooting into being the fault of "hateful left-wing media", not just here on Patnet, but also in the mainstream media. Rep. Rodney Davis (R-Illinois) was at the baseball practice and gave an interview on CNN where he blamed "hatefulness over policy differences".

The truth is that the RIGHT-wing media pretty much was the epitome of being hateful for the last 35 years, at least.

But it's true. The dude was a Left-wing nut job through and through. If this guy was a Tea Partier shooting up Democrats, you better believe the media would be running that angle 24/7 and sticking a microphone in every Republican's face forcing them to own this guy. They blamed Republicans for Gabby Giffords when the shooter turned out to be a non-political mental dude.

Democrats need to take ownership.

Left wing nuts always use threatening tactics to advance their political agenda. They "occupy" streets, they shout down and threaten conservative speakers at college campuses, they sue Christian photographers and cake bakers out of business, they boycott, and union goons slash tires and camp out in front of people's homes. Back in the 1960's and 70's left wing terrorist groups were bombing shit all over the country. Virtually all political violence and intimidation comes from the political left. Many of these violent leftists are still welcome in the Democrat party and have teaching gigs at universities (i.e. Obama's buddy Bill Ayers).

Domestic terrorism is what this was, clearly. But instead of Wahhabism and Imams, you have CNN, NYT, WaPO, Elizabeth Warren and Tim Kaine.

Mr. Trump has faced criticism over his response to protesters before. After a Black Lives Matter demonstrator was pushed to the ground at one of his events in November, Mr. Trump said in an interview after the episode that “maybe he should have been roughed up,” before later pulling back from his comments.

And the Dems are the now the one's inciting violence ?

Isn't that just a reaction to Liberals trying to shout down or disrupt a Conservative political event? Screechy Liberals like the Code Pink hags always try to disrupt Conservative speeches and hearings. College campuses have gone off the chart crazy where far left Liberals are now feeding on their own (Evergreen College).

When was the last time a Conservative or a Republican shouted down a disrupted a Liberal event?

I didn't vote for Trump, but I can understand the attraction some had for him as a person that will fight back using the same tactics as the political Left.

How about earlier this month ? Meet the Trump backer leading the resistance to the resistance in California.

Where are the organized groups like Code Pink, BLM, Occupy, Antifa.......?

Granted, some individuals on the Right are now mimicking the Left's tactics like the dude in LA. But examples of the Left using intimidating tactics outnumber the Right 100 to 1.

Tim Aurora says

Did you see a single responsible Dem condone this violence. We are all against violence and it has no place in our democracy.

Trump as a cuck subservient to Russia.... Working class people.... just want a job and they want to be able to pay their bills. Trump is the ONLY one talking about that

These things are not mutually exclusive.

Wow, I just read an archive of the shooters Facebook wall (which has a huge picture of Bernie Sanders as the cover image).

"I want to say Mr. President for being an a-hole, you are truly the biggest a-hole we have ever had in the oval office."

"Trump is a traitor, he has destroyed our democracy, it's time to get rid of trump and co"

Wow, this guy sounds like some of the people who post here. It's eerie.

So what you're saying is: he did it because of peer pressure? Seems legit!

landtof posts video

If you are trying to make the case that Loretta Lynch is calling for violence in that video, you are absolutely crazy. No reasonable person who watch that video clip and say, "she's calling for bloodshed".

BlueSardine says

Libbys gone wild...with guns.

By the way, gun people, this is EXACTLY what an armed citizen using the Second Amendment to "fight tyranny" looks like. What? Did you think no one would die in an armed insurrection against the government?

Oh, and if you condemn this person, I love to break it to you, but if you ever used the Second Amendment to fight the government, everyone would be condemning you exactly like how you are condemning this person. This story is where your Second Amendment fantasies meet reality. And it's also why I have always said that armed rebellion is a ridiculous fantasy.

Rep/Cons be afraid,very afraid.
The 2nd Amendment gives the Left the right to have guns & there is nothing
the Right can do. HA!HA!HA!

I don't get the joke.

Booo hisssss. :/ ... heh ... kinda poor taste there HEY YOU.

You want the response to be "Ok, ok. Gun control." .... but what you are going to get is "Let's go bro! Civ war 2 kick it off!" ... You aren't dealing with highly rational thought here ... yet.

Are you kidding? Afraid of what? The guy had a Colt AR15 with an ACOG 1-6 scope and didn't score one kill shot in an ambush.

If you want to see what Rep/Cons can actually do with a firearm, look no further than Charles Whitman who scored multiple kill shots at 200+ yards from an elevated tower with an old hunting rifle while taking pistol fire from police, and the guy had a massive brain tumor.

Radical Democrats/Leftist shooters are only effective at shooting up schools, UPS, malls, and gay night clubs, or other defenseless targets.

That's exactly what they are doing, insanity on the left taken over

Quigley says

Mainstream Media publishes millions of stories attacking Trump and the current administration. Leftists make calls for violence against patriots.

Are they actually trying to start a Civil War Part II?

Unfuckingbelievable!

So we need to ban guns?

Guns don't target Republicans, Libby's do. Sounds like you're suggesting we ban Libby's.

Explain again why you're not completely hysterical, lady.

Bernie has a martyr now! He was blessed to go down in a hail of bullets for Bernie!

Trump:
"Part of the problem is ... nobody want's to hurt each other anymore, right?"

Obama's words for a day just like today:
"But at a time when our discourse has become so sharply polarized -- at a time when we are far too eager to lay the blame for all that ails the world at the feet of those who think differently than we do -- it's important for us to pause for a moment and make sure that we are talking with each other in a way that heals, not a way that wounds."

Gosh what a crappy day today was. (sigh)

Terrorism was actually invented by XIX-century Russian radical left.

PS. Islamic terrorism was started and supported by KGB - the arm of the state built by Russian radical left. The worst evil shit in the world originates in Russia.

I'm all for the FBI ruthlessly cracking down against violent domestic terror groups. Go do it! Please!

(Last time seen it became politically disadvantageous to state we were more concerned with right wing groups than international terrorists. We will pay the price for that sometime after the next election.)

Yep - and the Democrats and Progressive Left have been soft on Russia and Commies forever. They only started hating Russia about 5 months ago.

No wonder liberals want to ban guns, they can't use them for shit.

You know you are a liberal when you are the first to point out everyone's race and sexual orientation while making conclusions based on that
