Yes, it was, which is really the point.  There are lunatics on both sides of the aisle.  That doesn't make an entire political viewpoint responsible for the acts of the deranged.  I don't recall hearing CNN or other left wing media outlets blaming the democrats for the shooting, but they sure as heck wanted to pin this on the republicans for the incident in Charlottesville.  No agenda pumping there, I'm sure.

I read something yesterday indicating the driver of the car in Charlottesville was a diagnosed, medicated schizophrenic.  He was diagnosed as a child.  That tidbit hasn't really been something CNN and their ilk are pushing as a prominent narrative because it's not going to get them the ratings to point out that this guy was nuts to begin with.
