In a sign of how heated the fall campaign has become, two Minnesota Republicans say they were attacked and punched in separate incidents over the weekend.

State Representative Sarah Anderson of Plymouth said she had confronted a man for kicking her campaign sign when he charged at her. First-time candidate Shane Mekeland of Becker said he suffered a concussion after a man punched him in the face at a Benton County restaurant.

Nearly a century ago JRR Tolkien described the Men of the West losing ground as they had few children; whole areas in the world were ceded to lesser men and monsters. The effects of artificial contraception were obvious even back then. When France fell in six weeks in 1940, many French people openly admitted it was due to “too few children”.

“In 2016 in MN, although the GOP didn’t win, the GOP did perform better than it did in the national popular vote. This was first time this had happened since 1956.”

Out of 2,691,057 votes the difference was 44593, not counting 3rd party votes.

“The D’s sometimes do it to each other, too.”

They are a vicious gang, no doubt.

Not yet, at least. They say they’re still “investigating”. Yeah, right.

This is hardly a new thing- politicians have been beating, shooting, stabbing each other in the US for decades (See, Burr v. Hamilton and Preston Brooks v. Charles Sumner).

“This is hardly a new thing”

National politicians inciting their minions to mob violence adds a bit of a novel wrinkle to it all.

True dat. That has more of a Stalin/Mussolini/Hitler European thing going there.

I think it was more due to over a million French men being killed in WWI than contraception.

I was tempted to work in “Kristallnacht”, but it hasn’t come to that - yet. At least on a massive physical scale; though on the internet and in the media it’s in full swing.

They lost 1.7 million men in WWI (more than we’ve lost in all of our wars combined) - but they themselves acknowledged that they didn’t breed enough afterwards (they themselves were quoted as saying “not enough babies”). Germany had lost a similar figure, but replaced them better.

Maxine said to fight Republicans, so they are following orders. If I was running, I’ll carry...someone might die soon...

I did not know that. I thought it was due to the blitzkreig tactics that simply overran them. They were too reliant on the old Maginot Line.

Sure. Blame the fall "campaign", and not the thug's on the left.
