When you turn a blind eye to your party's wrongdoings, you are doing exactly what you are angry at the other party about - ignoring their own party's wrongdoings and being angry with the opposite party for the exactly same wrongdoings. By engaging in this action, you are contributing to the endless vicious cycle that has potentials of breaking this country apart. Edit: I want to add this since the emotions are wildly high all over the country and it is very easy to make assumptions when people are emotional. Chico, it seems like you are personally impacted by the death of Kirk, I'm very sorry that you had to experience this. I personally barely knew anything about Kirk prior to the death, and after watching a few of his debates after learning about his death - while I do not agree with a lot of his perspectives, I am not happy that he was killed. I have no doubt that you will agree with me, violence is not the answer. Last edited by GridIron26; 09-20-2025 at 01:23 PM. Reason: Added more comment |

Re: Charlie Kirk Assassinated.
This seems interesting considering the political climate.
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...emist-violence US justice department removes study finding far-right extremists commit ‘far more’ violence Report finding rightwing extremists have killed more Americans than other domestic terrorist groups vanished from DoJ website The US justice department has scrubbed a study from its website concluding that far-right extremists have killed far more Americans than any other domestic terrorist group, just days after a gunman fatally shot the prominent conservative activist Charlie Kirk. The report, now archived, titled What NIJ Research Tells Us About Domestic Terrorism, vanished from the Department of Justice website between 12 and 13 September, according to Daniel Malmar, a PhD student studying online extremism at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, who had been monitoring the page. Kirk, the 31-year-old Turning Point USA founder and Trump ally, was gunned down while speaking at Utah Valley University on 10 September. The vanished study opened with: “Since 1990, far-right extremists have committed far more ideologically motivated homicides than far-left or radical Islamist extremists, including 227 events that took more than 520 lives. In this same period, far-left extremists committed 42 ideologically motivated attacks that took 78 lives.” The National Institute of Justice study, which was based on research spanning three decades, represented one of the most comprehensive government assessments of domestic terrorism patterns. It found that “militant, nationalistic, white supremacist violent extremism has increased in the United States” and that “the number of far-right attacks continues to outpace all other types of terrorism and domestic violent extremism”. But the findings align with independent research from the Center for Strategic and International Studies, which analyzed 893 terrorist plots between 1994 and 2020. That study concluded: “Rightwing attacks and plots account for the majority of all terrorist incidents in the United States since 1994.” In congressional testimony in 2023, Heidi Beirich, the executive vice-president of Global Project Against Hate and Extremism, told lawmakers as an expert witness that “data on acts of political violence clearly shows that it is the far right that is driving terrorism in the US, including targeting and, in certain cases, murdering law enforcement”. “That is not to say there is no violence from far-left actors,” she continued, “it is just simply not on the scale or as deadly as what is coming from far-right actors.”

Re: Charlie Kirk Assassinated.
Don’t forget about the opportunity to blame transgenders, they are literally obsessed with blaming 1% of the population for all of society’s woes

Personally this pisses me off. I miss the days when I was called an extremist and leftist for thinking everyone should have access to health care and nutritious food should not be tied to market value. Chico is not wrong in that leftist violence is a problem. Democrats say they are the party of empathy but those on social media that lean left mocking this death, and yes I recognize as a vocal minority, but it was done and unnecessary. Also, it wasn't too long ago that democrat leadership was making same comments as Pam Bondi on the suppression of First Amendment rights. Of which Kirk would've lost his shit hearing her make that comment. We have a problem and leadership on both sides is failing to develop a solution.

I have no doubt that you will agree with me, violence is not the answer to almost all scenarios (there are a very few people on this planet who are purely evil and enjoy seeing people suffer regardless of who it is - those types of people do not deserve to live).[/QUOTE]
I have questions about this from my kids. I have to explain why some people are celebrating his death I have to explain why 14 teachers from VA may lose their licenses to teach because they celebrate someone being killed on a college campus in front of their kids. This is a mainstream Democrat liberal view, they endorse killing people because they dont agree politically. Thanks why they keep attempting it.

Do you not think democrat parents also had to explain when their children ask them questions about republicans' wrongdoings? Do you truly believe that none of people within your party endorse and/or are doing similar things? My friend, you are doing exactly what I'm saying that you are doing.. You are focused on the pain that Democrats have created for you & your loved ones and ignoring the fact that your party is creating the same pain for Democrats. Just as what Democrats are doing, focusing on the pain created by Republicans and ignoring that their party is doing the same thing. The pain and anger you are feeling are real. Just as the pain and anger Democrats are feeling are real. Thus, the endless vicious cycle you are participating in. |

No one is celebrating his murder, the right wing nuts can't stand the commentary / free speech so they punish anyone with a differing opinions, did your children ask about why republicans are destroying the constitution? the right wing nuts can't win anything the right way so now they use a Mans murder to stop free speech Did they ask questions about Pelosi's 82 year old Husband attacked with a hammer. Did they ask questions when the Democratic rep from Minnesota were shot and killed and her husband and dog were all so killed what did you say, did you tell them about the sick stuff you post hear? What were their question when the sicko republican ran down people at a peaceful protest in Charlotte's VA. ......................we're waiting?
