Why Aren’t We Having a National Conversation About Leftist Violence?



ENVISION HILLARY JUMPING A FENCE TO AVOID THOSE WHO DESPISE HER AND WHAT SHE STANDS FOR. 
What would be the reaction?
What would be hearing? Seeing?
Reading?



From The Federalist:
If a mob of conservatives attempted to shut down a major Hillary Clinton event, as rioters did the other day during a Donald Trump event, America would be thrust into an insufferable national dialogue about the growing violent tendencies of the Right to crush debate. 
There would be a flood of anxious op-ed pieces and cable news roundtables featuring chin-stroking pundits contemplating the future of discourse in America. 
No one would be spared. And you better believe every conservative politician in the country would be asked to comment on this bloodcurdling development. 
Do you, sir, feel that your own rhetoric about immigration and guns has somehow contributed to this ugly trend we’re seeing? 
Does the GOP need to soften its tone on abortion to stop this kind of violence from happening in the future? You might remember that, during the 2009-2010 Obamacare debates, every false and exaggerated claim about Tea Party violence induced a thousand wringing hands to grapple over the fascistic tendencies and ugly underbelly of conservatism. 
You might remember the Democratic leadership in Congress decrying “acts of violence” against House members in concerted effort to create the perception that bloodshed was imminent.
GO READ THE WHOLE THING.

How can you blame leftists for the violence? After all, action is justified against the racists and fascists, and evildoers.

Whereas, if it was the other way around racists would be creating violence against justice and peace.

All we have to do is remember there is no longer a way to communicate with a burgeoning Bolshevism in reasoning, preparing to go ALL THE WAY with a clear conscience.

The police need to be prepared with MRAPS to push the crowd OBSTRUCTING the public's freedom to gather and interfering with the ONLY national election we have.

If they are not. HIRE THOSE WHO ARE.
