If the ball field shooter had been a Trump supporter shooting at Democrats?

The media would have exploded, immediately declaring it was Trump's rhetoric, his talk of violence and division that was the driving force behind the shooter and others like him.

The big media attacks on Trump would go on for weeks if not the duration of Trump's presidency.

There are a significant number of people, Democrats obviously, who hold that THIS shooting is Trump's fault. See comment sections on news articles that dare to leave comments open.

That the press is not expressing the same sentiment directly is merely a sign of restraint. It is what they believe.

Simply put, democrats are debased evil incarnate. And making excuses for their shooter.

The non-stop Mainstream news media lies about Trump and Russia stealing the election incited this democrat to try to kill all of congressional Republicans.

The fake news of the Russia collusion media hoax has been the top news story every single day of 2017 this year.

CNN,Nytimes, Washington post,NBC, CBS, ABC etc have blood on their hands.

The media is the enemy

Virtually 100% of our side would be condemning the act, and virtually 0% would be making political comments about it. Those who would are idiots.

The thread is about how the media would act. Not who the shooters are down through history. And by the way, you have no idea if the shooter was deranged of if this were strictly political.

Try to keep up.

Here’s a typical liberal response from a fringe lunatic liberal website.

“If the left had its way, this shooting would never have happened.
“Before they start to accuse the left of being vicious and crazy and unreasonable and violent, let’s all remember that the left has been demanding reasonable gun control laws for decades. If the left had had its way, we would have stricter requirements for gun ownership, and the shooter would never have been able to get his hands on a gun.

This crime, like all gun crimes, belongs to the NRA and to its supporters. Liberals believe in peaceful resolution of disagreements.”.

The quote is a prime example of the contageous mental disease spreading among Democrats.

I don’t see much being made over this. The news media is treating it as just one of its news items.

Contrast that with the Gabby Gifford shooting.

This shooter was a “Progressive” Bernie supporter so it will be minimized and spun into a need for more gun control story.

It's because it wasn't a Trump supporter shooting at a Democrat charity event.☺

UPDATE: They now say the Bernie Sanders-inspired mass shooter was fed on HATE from Rachel MadCow! Huh, no surprises here!

The US national HATE Media and Democrats are DIRECTLY to blame for the shooting of the Congressional Republicans! Within the last month two artistic works have drawn criticism for imagined violence against Trump. In May, comedian Kathy Griffin apologized for a photo where she held a mask of a bloody, severed Trump head after a major backlash where CNN cut ties with her. More recently, a production of Shakespeare’s “Julius Caesar” depicted a Trump-like figure who was assassinated. The president’s eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., on Twitter highlighted another user’s tweet that said, “Events like today are EXACTLY why we took issue with NY elites glorifying the assassination of our President,” soon after shots were fired at Republican congressmen during a baseball practice.

FOR SHAME!!

We would never hear the end of it.

This is a product of the climate of hate created by the progressive left and the Dhimmicraps.

They have questioned the legitimacy of President Trump’s election from the moment it happened, plotting action against him (including but not limited to impeachment) from about 10 PM Eastern on November 8.

Left-wing professors have called for Trump’s assassination, and it is only after this shooting that the hypocrites at the Huffington post pulled an article urging the same.

They have promoted and defended Kathy Griffin and the severed Trump head. they have supported and defended the “assassination” of Trump at Shakespeare in the Park. Is it any wonder one of their little mind-numbed robots decided that the Republicans needed killing?

What’s the point? The MSM is the Democrat Party. They’re not on the same team—they ARE the same team.

Thanks. It’s another example of the reality of Progressive/Liberal thought and action having to be denied or ignored as much as possible.

By tonight or tomorrow, all you’ll hear will be “gun control”. Not “Democrat shooter attacks Republican ball game”.

This after Democrats made it politically correct to call for the assassination of the president of the united states...They’ve made it cool and popular!
