The Left is violent

July 2, 2017 by Jeff (ILoveCapitalism)

This keeps coming up.

  • Despite (or maybe because of) the fact that left-wing protestors actually smash and burn things in riots and try to shut down Free Speech and injure people by swinging heavy-duty bike locks at them…
  • and despite (or maybe because of) the fact that a Bernie bro was out to kill Republicans – and some Democrats cheered him for it…
  • and despite (or maybe because of) the fact that the Left endlessly engages in inflammatory rhetoric to convince people that conservatives must be killed because they are Nazi Putin-loving fascists who want to push Grandma off the cliff in her wheelchair…
  • and despite (or maybe because of) the fact that the Left now does death threats on an unprecedented scale and blatant “assassination porn” from its artists…

Despite (or maybe because of) those things, lefties still claim to feel threatened by the Right and wring their hands over the possibility of right-wing violence.

Relax, lefties! You’re the violent ones. Breitbart has a roundup for you.

It’s worth reading in full. The short version is: Most – not all, but most – of the serious political violence in America, like assassinations and explosions, comes from the Left. Enjoy!

By the way: I haven’t seen a Steve Scalise update since June 22, when he was transferred out of Intensive Care. Hopefully, “no news is good news”.

UPDATE: Julian Assange’s Twitter stream around June 30 is full of examples of lefties making death threats on him or explaining why he should be ‘droned’. (Plus examples where CNN approved of violence against journalists.)

Steve Scalise update

June 21, 2017 by Jeff (ILoveCapitalism)

Per The Hill this morning, he has been upgraded from Serious to Fair condition.

I didn’t see this coming: Bono gives Scalise a shout-out. Meaning something positive.

“You’ve been through some troubling days here with the shooting in Alexandria,” Bono says on-stage in the video. “We are so grateful that Congressman Scalise and his comrades made it through. So grateful. We hold them up, as love holds us all up.”

…U2 performed Tuesday night in Hyattsville, Maryland, at FedExField, home of the Washington Redskins. FedExField is located about 19 miles northeast of Alexandria.

But they’re still stuck on a motive for the shooting. ABC’s article is totally silent on it. The Hill’s article touches on it in a way that disguises the truth:

The FBI said Wednesday that the shooter, who died shortly after sustaining injuries in a confrontation with police, worked alone and that the incident had “no nexus to terrorism.”

The agency also confirmed Hodgkinson had a paper list containing six lawmakers’ names, although they said they would not classify it as a “hit list.”

So, the FBI is politically correct? Yikes! Reminder:

  • The “six names” were a hit list.
  • They were all GOP – and specifically, the (rare) anti-Establishment, pro-liberty type of GOP known as the House Freedom Caucus.
  • The failed murderer, James T. Hodgkinson, was a “Bernie bro” who wanted to kill them for political reasons and terrorize conservatives.

From the comments: James reminds us that Bono has kinda-sorta been getting sensible for awhile. Nice to see!

Climate of Hate – roundup

June 19, 2017 by Jeff (ILoveCapitalism)

Much of this is from Breitbart; they do a great job of covering it. But I added a few other things.

  • James T. Hodgkinson wasn’t going to stop with Scalise; he had a list of Republican names in his pocket.

    The list of names included Alabama Rep. Mo Brooks, South Carolina Rep. Jeff Duncan and Arizona Rep. Trent Franks, TheDC has confirmed. Fox News reported after this story that Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan, Tennessee Rep. Scott DesJarlais and Virginia Rep. Morgan Griffith are also on the list. All six congressmen are members of the House Freedom Caucus…

    But they still don’t know his motive.

  • Democrat strategist James Levine has launched #HuntRepublicans, an implied endorsement of Hodgkinson’s actions.

    In the tweets that followed, he repeated the Gabby Giffords blood libel (on Sarah Palin). Lefties do love that libel.

    By the way, I think it’s no accident that lefties would perceive the House Freedom Caucus as an existential threat. I wrote not long ago that it’s Producers vs. Looters. Socialists are looters, and the House Freedom Caucus, though not perfect, comes the closest to expressing the rights and views of producers.

  • CBS’ Resident Idiot Scott Pelley wonders aloud if the shooting of Steve Scalise was “self-inflicted”.

    Pretending to be even-handed, he casts the matter in terms which simultaneously obscure that Republicans were the target and imply that Republicans are at fault. Blame the victim…while hiding her.

  • Elizabeth “Fauxcahontas” Warren is practically foaming at the mouth against President Trump. Imagine an election between those two.
  • Breitbart has a roundup, A Year of Hate: 9 Times the Radicalized Left Engaged in Violence in the Trump Era.

    Lowlights include multiple unprovoked, physical attacks on Trump supporters (including vulnerables such as older people and high school kids); a firebombing on GOP a office; and multiple Antifa rampages.

    It goes on to say, “This list is by no means exhaustive. Indeed, it does not even scratch the surface of calls for violence in rhetorical discourse. To give perspective, over 12,000 tweets have called for Trump’s assassination since his inauguration.”

    That’s correct. For example, they left out when Loretta Lynch suggested more blood and death in the streets. (“[People] have always had to work to move this country forward…They’ve marched, they’ve bled, yes some of them have died. This is hard. Every good thing is.”)

    And they left out many attempts at violence that have been thwarted; for example, when Antifas plotted to gas the DeploraBall with butyric acid.

For dessert:

  • A journey into the freak show at Evergreen State.
  • Ann Coulter’s recent column asked if anyone remembers when the Left was super keen on having people respect the results of elections?
  • Vegetarian lady drowns rabid raccoon with her bare hands. Hmm, is that a metaphor for something? What?

James T. Hodgkinson of Belleville, IL: A loser who died in vain

June 15, 2017 by Jeff (ILoveCapitalism)

Some criminals’ names are worth remembering, as pathetic examples of futility. Such an individual is James T. Hodgkinson of Belleville, IL.

As V noted Wednesday, he opened fire on Republican representatives from Congress who were practicing to play baseball for charity, and he critically wounded one of them, Rep. Steve Scalise (R – LA).

I don’t know if Hodgkinson was mentally ill? I do know the media reports that he was a Republican-hating and Trump-hating supporter of the Democrat-socialist, Bernie Sanders. (To the Controlled Media’s credit, they have been presenting this fact; not hiding it.)

I don’t know what Hodgkinson’s life was like; if he accomplished much or had kids or did charity or had overcome abuse or handicaps? I don’t know his life, but I do know that his death was malicious (on his part), pointless and stupid.

He gave his life to injure others, express his hatred and injure America. And he failed. He didn’t make a single kill. (He would still be futile and one of life’s losers, if he had; the point is that, even on his own evil terms, he still failed.) A likely proponent of gun control, he made himself into a cautionary tale in favor of guns; specifically, their ability to stop would-be mass-murderers like Hodgkinson quickly – when good people are around, who have them.

I only hope that, in his last moments of consciousness as he died from the bullets that rained back upon him, Hodgkinson realized his error and had a second or two of repentance. If he did, God in His mercy and power will still be able to make something good of Hodgkinson’s soul.

UPDATE: Hannity notes that Bernie is not to blame for this. He’s right. Except we have to put a qualifier on it.

While Bernie is NOT responsible for every act of his supporters – just as Trump isn’t – it can’t be denied that the Left has been fomenting a Climate of Hate. It has many elements, including falsehoods and smears that Bernie has helped to spread.
