Violent liberal attacks Rand Paul staffer, stabs him multiple times in the head, arrest Hillary for incitement

Entirely bias based assumption.

Another entirely bias based assumption.

Yep, you’re posting stupid.
Stabbing people is stupid. Not denouncing the violence is stupid. I'll stand by that, even as you fight to defend the violence.
 
Right wingers are 100% motivated by hate and spite.

Stupid is deliberately conflating political affiliation with violence.

It's important to differentiate political violence from regular violence.
 
Out of the first 25 posts.... at least 18 of them did not. Others offer "thoughts and prayers".
So if they didn't say the specific words, "I CONDEMN THIS ATTACK", it means they don't condemn the attack?

Well, a bunch of MAGAs must support political violence, then. I'm not sure I've heard a single on of them say, "I CONDEMN THE VIOLENT INSURRECTION!"

If your argument is that all of those posters are as ambivalent to violence that they agree with as MAGAs are...

hey, you're right! Will you call them out as well?

Uh... no.

Read it again. (And put your thinking cap on first.)
 
Uh... no.

So they didn't condemn the attack? Did they? Kinda like MAGAs?
Yeah, thought so.

(Or is it ok for those MAGA posters to just deflect the violence because "reasons")

In my experience that is a common mentality around here, if you don’t condemn the act exactly like how I want then you support it. It is rampant on any 1/6 thread, moat all gun control threads, and countless others here and there.

No. Nothing like MAGAs.
Yeah, thought so.
Of course you thought so and will continue to think so, no matter what evidence or arguments are presented. I understand that.

I'm sorry. That just sounds like a rant to me. I'm here for debate and discussion.

Yeah. Tribalism makes people think in weird ways.
 
So it was a violent conservative who attacked Rand Paul staffer?

Indications are that the victim was chosen at random, so yes it could easily be a violent conservative.

The argument has been made that because DC is heavily Democrat, it's more likely the criminal was a liberal. However, we have another small bit of information: the attacker's name. Glynn is an Irish given name, making it quite unlikely he is black. Furthermore, he was released from jail in Maryland, not DC.
 
The accusation that a violent liberal violently attacked an innocent person?

Yeah.

I'm sorry if that fact triggers you. But the asshole going around stabbing people shouldn't be protected or defended or deflected by Democrats. Thats just stupid.

Nor should Democrats be held responsible for what violent assholes do.

As far as Hillary is concerned; she lost an election to Donald ****ing Trump. Nothing I can imagine would feel worse than that, but she's not going to jail. She'll be fine.

You called for her to go to jail "for incitement" in what is transparently an attempt to turn the tables.

Free speech does indeed have consequences. Like being called out for bullshit. Do you feel threatened by me saying that?

The Kenned family are Irish. So the guy is a white Irish conservative?

Where the **** did I do this? Please quote me. You're god damned lying, aren't you?
 
A sadly unsurprising number of Democrats not condemning this attack...

As a progressive, I condemn this violence, full stop. The attacker sounds like an asshole who should be separated from society.
Lib-progs, i.e. Democrats, are dangerous and violent criminals, yourself excepted of course.

MAGA.

Don't confuse Democrats with progressives.

And don't confuse me with MAGA. The United States is great, but it still has a lot of work to do.

If it is not too late, I'd like to go on record as sending my thoughts and prayers to the afflicted Rand Paul staffer, but since I am not a Democrat, liberal or progressive, that may be considered out of line.

Is it?

MAGA.

The OP called for Hillary to be "arrested" which is pretty much the same as "going to jail" isn't it?

You screwed up the quote (the text doesn't match the link) so I can't tell if you have any reason for the dummy spit.

*sigh*

I'm not proud of how long my posts are. It shouldn't be necessary, except that right wingers refuse to do any inductive thinking if the conclusion is something they disagree with. I shouldn't have to spend ages spelling this sort of thing out, like you're a little kid.

Black individuals are very likely to be Democrats (wherever they live, but particularly in DC). So if the assailant is white he's less likely than that, to be a Democrat. In addition, he may not even be from DC.

The article claimed his home was in D.C.
