Congressional Majority Whip Shot

Just another example of the rhetoric that is totally excused because the right never thought they would be the target.

Not justifying violence or condoning this sad act. Just pointing out that words matter. And not a one of you on this board condemned this statement or countless others like it. Trump can promptly speak out on violence when his own people are the target, but has been silent or severely tardy on several other acts of violence perpetrated by people who are aligned to his base. It's farcical.


What violence perpetrated by his base people?

You mean the rioters during the inauguration seeking to disrupt events. No, those were libs. You mean those attacking UC Berkeley because a gay, right-wing activist from Britain was speaking? No, those were libs too. You mean those rioting in streets throughout urban cities calling for nothing short of a civil war? No, those are libs too.

Where was the outrage when a conservative attacked liberals with a machete in Kentucky?

Forgive me if I don't trust this report, but is there anything else confirming it? I don't recall reading anything about this at the time, and I'm not seeing any credible news agency report on it. What I do see here is a quote from the police saying it's not yet 100 percent confirmed, and the guy who said it "declining further comment." That by itself isn't enough to make me question the article, but then there's the fact that this was written by the Washington Post. That makes me wonder if this is even real, or is it yet another example of fake news.

I'm not saying this is fake news, but with a low-down, slimy outfit such as the Washington Post, we just don't know.

Anything is possible, but it sure isn't likely  because you wouldn't have so much hate stirred up by the mainstream media where some outlets are even praising the shooter's intent.
