American youth have become murderous

Talking heads will say it comes from both sides, but we all know every day we read of the violence fomented and spawned by the left, including the left-leaning mainstream media we see daily in our homes. Worse still is that coming from CNN, but more so from MSNBC/ NOW. Not being an evening TV watcher I cannot say what people see on sitcoms and the like.

How can we not assume this left is the same as those who watch families in Israel being murdered, Jewish babies being cooked alive by Hamas invaders, Jewish women being raped and shot while in that same act, and celebrated by campus Blind Followers wearing their stylish scarfs. TD


The Growing Threat of Political Violence From the Left - Newsweek 

. . . "While right-wing extremism is regularly dissected and denounced in mainstream media, conservatives have long complained that political violence from the left regularly receives less scrutiny—or is reframed entirely to dismiss the perpetrators' progressive views. This perceived imbalance has fueled a growing belief, often discussed on conservative subreddits, in right-leaning Substacks, and on X, that left-wing violence is minimized or rationalized, while right-wing violence is amplified and condemned." . . .

Then-U.S. President Donald Trump  called Antifa a terrorist group, but it is less a cohesive group and more a broad ideological opposition to perceived fascism. Antifa’s lack of a uniform doctrine or organization
results in followers presenting sometimes opposing ideals.
 

 It's time for a national conversation about left-wing violence 

"If reports are true, it looks like the targeted killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in New York last week was politically motivated. The alleged shooter, Luigi Mangione, a former Ivy Leaguer from an affluent family, was reportedly caught with some kind of manifesto.

"Even before we knew who the shooter was, however, the reaction from far too many leftists was to either justifycelebrate, or rationalize the shooting. There’s a real debate going on in some quarters of the progressive Left over whether slaying CEOs is a bad thing. And it’s unsurprising. " . . . The rest is behind a pay wall... 

“As soon as the shooting happened, there is this outpouring insisting that he [Kirk] was a target of the left, insisting that people who were not MAGA were celebrating his death. 

 “And then I’m going online and I’m seeing people celebrating it!” he continued, his voice raising. “Shame! Shame on you!”

 We recall the leftist tarring with the Hitler brush of every Republican president going back to Ronald Reagan. 

"We are saturated in the climate of violence that the Democrats and their media adjunct have fostered. It is easy to take it as a given, but the assassination of Charlie Kirk prompts us to pause over it, as John did in “Why do they call Trump Hitler?” Hugh Hewitt’s interview with Victor Davis Hanson this past Friday reminded me of this classic expression of the conventional leftist cliché. This they believe."
