Disturbing Glimpses of Democratic Anger

Give me a break. How did Trump incite violence.

 

No doubt there are heavily armed far left groups out there that are looking for any excuse to get violent. There always have been. I remember the Weather Underground, and Students for a Democratic Society back in the 60’s that would infiltrate corporations like Dow Chemical and commit sabotage, and the Black Panthers. The Animal Liberation Front (ALF) and Earth Liberation Front (ELF) that went after polluters and animal testing labs. Those are in the past but one has to wonder if new far left groups are forming that will commit acts of violence.

 

I’m sure you have some first-hand experience of the “by any means necessary” approach. In their minds, there is no lie too big. It then leads to violence. Natural progression of things for the left.

 

This has to be one of the must unaware self-owns I’ve seen on this board. Your own politicians are afraid of death threats for not towing the party line when they control all three branches and you’re just worried about the other party? Makes sense, those death threats are in furtherance of you getting what you want.

 

And they are more similar to each other than they'll ever be able to recognize. The greatest example of this that I see on a regular basis is an intense hatred of people they don't care to understand.

Go GATORS!

They failed the reading comprehension test in this simple post. Keywords in your post: Republican Legislators.

The posters here cannot find any legislators calling for violence, and then conflate crazy partisan people in public to make a point that's just not there.

The Dem Party is out of real good policies so they are now relying on not so subtle passive-aggressive statements that are purposefully stated in their pressers to gin-up their crazies.

They know how to bend the rules of decorum and they know how to get the most "action" out of the base voters without crossing the line of actual incitement.

 

He didn't... they invent lies... part of their makeup.

 

Word to the wise...

It's not just one side or the other.
It's also not just in the USA.

Politics has always been bloody, historically; it's endemic, worldwide. It's a chronic shame in 2025, in so many democratically elected governments, there are so few mature adults capable of stepping out the politiking game and remembering their role is to serve the people.

That said - on the matter of violence - we, the electorate, get the politicians we deserve. If we want a non-violent politics, we need to insist all our leaders adhere to that vision and call all forms of it out immediately, rather than selectively. It shouldn't be a partisan issue. If they don't agree, don't elect them.

By the by, if you're attached to one side and you only blame the others... you're part of the problem.

 

Yep the only thing Trump said in his J6 speech that could even be twisted was he used the word fight which has probably been used by every single politician at one time or another. He followed that later in his speech saying that they needed to go to the Capitol peacefully.

 

And... Trump was never charged with a crime.
