Leftist, full of rage.

But loved Sanders, Maddow and the rest.

Not many of those around these days. Unfortunately Breitbart is pretty bad with typos and grammar.

CNN actually reporting, with sour faces, about the perp’s social media profile with Anti-Trump rhetoric.

Guess they know there is no spinning this. Admitting political motive.

I Hope in whatever minuscule conscience they have left, they realize their complicity in promoting hate. That, of course, they will never admit.

The perp liked to write letters to the editor, dating back about ten years. Here’s a sampling.

Greedy instead of grand

There’s a new version of what GOP stands for. It’s not the Grand Old Party anymore. It’s the Greedy One Percenters.

This latest show of power in the House by the GOP would have cost the average family more than $1,000 in taxes next year. The Republican-controlled House wanted the average worker to pay $1,000 more per year, but they wouldn’t even consider that their millionaire and billionaire friends contribute a higher rate of income tax.

I sincerely believe in the way Congress taxed the country for more than 70 years. We used to have more than 30 tax brackets and the top marginal rate was more than 70 percent for many years. President Reagan dropped the top rate from 70 to 50 percent, which started the slow decline of the American middle class.

I wish everyone could see how by changing the tax code, more than 95 percent of this country’s problems could be solved.

We need to vote all Republicans out of office. Let’s work to get this country back. Let’s all push for 20 brackets to $20 million with a top marginal rate of 60 percent.

Income inequality is risky

The right-wing writer Dennis Rodenhofer has twice enough hate to go around since he is beside himself to cut down my sources of the causes of the Great Depression.

I named the economists of the Austrian School Economics, and they are Waddill Catchings and William Trufant Foster. He can’t believe anything on Wikipedia, so I followed up with Waddill Catchings’ biography on tradingstocks.net to get that site’s opinion. They are identical.

The income inequality was a major cause of the Great Depression, in that the production of the country was full blast but the common worker couldn’t afford to buy the same goods that they were producing.

If Rodenhofer doesn’t see this as a major reason for the causes of the Great Depression, he has his head in the sand.

I don’t believe all of the messages on Fox News but I still think they get some of it right. Change channels to MSNBC and get a better, balanced opinion.

As for my loving President Obama, I say when people look at the other side, the choice is obvious. I don’t want a president who won’t even keep his money in American banks. I don’t want a president who will lower taxes on the rich and raise them on the other 99 percent.

I don’t want a president who wants to lower the number of tax brackets when everyone with a brain knows we need more tax brackets in order to reach all classes of income.

So 2 Critters on scene thought the perp was weird and said nothing to anyone before leaving.

So much for if you see something, say something.

but you would expect an professional journalist to actually proof read his copy before hitting the send button.

One would think so. Being detail oriented, I would certainly double check, but I'm not a "journalist."

THIS WAS A MEDIA INSPIRED TERRORIST ATTACK

Can you imagine if a pro Trump guy did this to Democrat Congressmen.

It would be the end of the world to the leftist scum filth.

Yep. The hypocrisy is just starting. Give it a day and the media will start blaming Trump for create a “culture of hostility.” If this was a right winger, it would be a grand conspiracy and the media would be in full on attack mode.

I just posted this on Facebook:


Left-leaning friends, please get word out to your side that the violent behavior some are exhibiting, be it in word or effigy or action, is absolutely intolerable across the sociopolitical spectrum. YOU may not agree with their choices, but they are acting on your behalf and should they cross the line you will be lumped in with them as your representatives.

Hodgkinson, Antifa, BLM, Shakespeare in the Park’s Julius Cesar, Kathy Griffin, Hillary “I’m with #TheResistance” Clinton, etc are leading the public perception of Leftist violence as a virtue. YOU need to get the message out that they must stop the revolutionary rhetoric NOW.

I know you hate Trump. Fine. He was legitimately elected, and there are legitimate channels for addressing disapproval. Make sure others don’t drag us into civil war - which many, in fact, approve off and are trying to instigate on your behalf.

Good message.

You should add a warning: One of the reasons war is very bad is that the innocent suffer with the guilty. People who wish for war with American patriots are foolish and misguided, but I’m not sure they appreciate that they are putting their lives, and their families lives if the have any, in great danger.
