We’ve always had political violence in this country. None of this is surprising.

I was reading about this earlier, something like 24% of Democrats and 3% of Republicans support violence against people they see as political enemies - I think it was PEW Research but can double check if someone needs.

More anecdotally, the last violent attack against the left was the Melissa Hortman and her husband that were attacked by a Tim Waltz appointee, and I didn't see anyone on the right celebrating it either.

And yet... Both are equally stupid. Using degrees of shitness to declare your wide the winner just means everyone lost.
