On June 14, 2017, a mass shooting occurred during a practice session for the annual Congressional Baseball Game for Charity in Alexandria, Virginia, where six people were shot, including U.S. House Majority Whip Steve Scalise, U.S. Capitol police officer Crystal Griner, congressional aide Zack Barth, and lobbyist Matt Mika, by 66-year-old James Hodgkinson. A ten-minute shootout took place between Hodgkinson and officers from the Capitol and Alexandria Police before officers shot Hodgkinson, who died from his wounds later that day at the George Washington University Hospital. Scalise and Mika were taken to nearby hospitals where they underwent surgery.
Hodgkinson was a left-wing political activist from Belleville, Illinois, while Scalise was a Republican member of Congress. The Virginia Attorney General concluded Hodgkinson's attack was "an act of terrorism... fueled by rage against Republican legislators".

Drum…. The first sentence of his story refutes it. Moron. And I fires he never heard the celebrations of the attacks on Rand Paul, the BLM and antifa terror campaign loving nurtured by democrats, etc.

Well, we all remember the PRESIDENT (Obatshit) saying “If They Bring A Knife To The Fight, We Bring A Gun”.
And the whole “Get in their face” thing. Not to mention their support for Antifa and BLM.
Yeah. It’s the evil Republicans.

The Left’s Core Strategy #1: “Pick the target and polarize it." *via Rules for Radicals
The Left’s Core Strategy #2: Scream accusations of racism (or racist attacks) at anything you don't like or which slows your agenda. *Sexism, "homophobia", etc. are also opportunities.
The Left’s Core Strategy #3: Intensely attack Republicans for actions you are undertaking.
The Left’s Core Strategy #4: Attack Republicans with shallow insults in an effort to negatively influence the public's view of their character. Do not attempt to explain the insults. Think drive-by shooter.
The Left’s Core Strategy #5: When everything fails, censor speech and/or deploy violence.

Ten minutes of sound bites of Democrats advocating violence against Trump, Trump supporters, and conservatives in general, originally presented by President Trump's impeachment lawyer at Trump's first impeachment trial.

Only the GOP Celebrates Political ViolenceWhy stop there. You also believe that only the GOP are racist, Fascist, white supremacist, homophobes, haters, killers, gun-totin' knuckle-draggers, Nazis, climate destroyers, insurrection deniers...
I'm sure I left something out, but I can't remember what.
Hey, what about baby killers? Are they baby killers?

I stopped reading when David Scum referred to Kyle Rittenhouse’s attackers as “demonstrators.”
