Ted Cruz pushed back against the media coverage of the Planned Parenthood shooting today and made a pretty strong assertion about which party most violent criminals belong to.
Radio host Hugh Hewitt told Cruz that, given how some in the media have attempted to connect pro-life rhetoric to the shooting, he has never encountered a pro-life individual who would condone violence.
Cruz agreed and said whenever tragedy strikes, the media's "salivating" and "hoping desperately that the murderer happens to be a Republican."
And then he said, "Here's the simple and undeniable fact: the overwhelming majority of violent criminals are Democrats. The media doesn't report that."
He told Hewitt the reason Democrats want convicted felons to be able to vote is because they know most of them will vote for Democrats.

Wow!! Cruz just called all Democrats felons!!?? /s
(I imagine that has already been reported as such by the Huffington Post).
Cruz can retort “That’s not what I said. Now - if you limit it to ELECTED Democrats....”
Nonwhites commit 92 percent of all violent crime in New York City, and are responsible for 98 percent of all shootings, 91 percent of all firearm arrests, 88 percent of all drug arrests, 84 percent of all stolen property arrests, and 88 percent of all misdemeanor sexual offenses, the city's police department has reported.
“ruz just called all Democrats felons”
No, he called most felons Democrats.
Venn Diagram may be necessary.
Not only are most violent offenders Democrats, the Democratic Party is eternal, unapologetic friends with domestic terrorists, such as Bill Ayers.
I can hardly wait for the left to call this a lie. How will they distort the facts in their favor?
Since you want Dems to cross over...not a very smart statement.
Democrats don’t like being told that most mass killers are Democrats. It doesn’t fit the talking points, and the American people don’t believe that killers have a partisan preference.
My guess is they will just ignore it because the facts are on Cruz’s side.
NYPD better quit releasing such statistics: the people of NYC don’t believe the facts anyway.
You don’t understand. It’s because they have been oppressed for 150 years. They’re victims. /s
The left has never been a fan of the truth. No doubt this tidbit will be no different.
There goes the Reagan Democrat vote Teddy. :-)
I don’t imagine that too many of Obama’s sons on Chicago’s south side vote Republican.
Not really. Reagan Democrats know what demographic is involved here.
“Since you want Dems to cross over...not a very smart statement.”
No, you don’t really want Dems to cross over. You want to stop the dead and illegal ones to get caught trying to vote and TURN OUT Republican voters by giving them something to vote FOR.
“Since you want Dems to cross over...not a very smart statement.”
Bwwwaaaahahahaha, that’s quite a sense of humor you have there.
“Not only are most violent offenders Democrats, the Democratic Party is eternal, unapologetic friends with domestic terrorists, such as Bill Ayers”
It’s OK for the Dems to have this stigma attached to them because they have no standards to be held to. If in the case of the GOP it would be a big stink in the MSM thay would be never ending.
Lol. Make those lefties go insane, Cruz!!!
You’re probably right.
