The Democrat Party Is A Domestic Terrorist Organization
In the world we live in now, there is no time to try to convince the left to ‘tone down’ their extreme rhetoric. They need to be treated like the domestic terrorists they are.
After a long history of condoning, advocating, and participating in political violence, it is time to designate the Democrat Party a domestic terrorist organization.
Decades of extreme language, calling conservatives “Nazis,” claiming existential threats are around the corner in order to feed an assassination culture, and justifying the aftermath has brought a level of violence that is only one-sided: The left tries to murder or maim their political enemies.
On Wednesday afternoon, a shooter took the life of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, just as he was answering a question about left-wing violence in the United States.
Left-wing commentators at corporate media outlets — the mouthpieces of the Democrat Party — were quick to justify the violence, suggesting it was justified or that Kirk brought it on himself, even going as far as to suggest it was really a Trump supporter firing a gun in “celebration.”
Democrats have a long history of calling conservatives the most vile things our culture can think of, and their friends in the media spread the message to anyone who watches them.
Just yesterday, Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., said in an interview, “Our only opportunity, our only chance to save our democracy, is to fight fire with fire.”
“We’re in a war right now to save this country, and so you have to be willing to do whatever is necessary in order to save the country,” he said. Murphy’s media pal salivated over the sentiment, wondering if there were enough people who believe it.
The left-wing penchant for egging on and justifying violence has long been a staple of their political movement.
Democrats did everything they could to make Trump seem like the most evil person on the planet for years, so it was no surprise when Trump was shot last year and a second gunman attempted to shoot him only weeks later.
Gov. J.B. Pritzker, D-Ill., said recently that “Republicans cannot know a moment of peace,” and then in the aftermath of Kirk’s death blamed Trump for the assassination.
The 1960s was full of left-wing political violence.
President Bill Clinton granted clemency to Puerto Rican FALN terrorists who bombed and murdered their way across America, and President Barack Obama pardoned them. President Joe Biden granted clemency to those convicted of murdering police officers.
Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., threatened Supreme Court justices, and a man with a gun showed up outside Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s house intent on murdering him.
Sen. Bernie Sanders’, I-Vt., existential threat language led one of his supporters to shoot at the Republican members of Congress practicing for the Congressional Baseball Game in 2017, nearly ending the life of now-House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, R-La.
In 2013, a man intent in killing as many people as possible at the conservative organization Media Research Center went there with a gun and killed a security officer after disagreeing with the group’s stance on gay “marriage.”
Left-wing violence in Nashville, Tennessee, saw Covenant Christian School attacked by someone claiming to be “transgender,” and the Biden administration attempted to cover up the shooter’s writings, which exposed her motive.
More recently, children at Annunciation Catholic School were gunned down while they were praying by another person claiming to be “transgender” with a similarly demonic motivation.
But the left celebrated when Luigi Mangione allegedly gunned down a healthcare CEO, and they cheered even harder when Black Lives Matter brought death and destruction to America’s streets.
In the world we live in now, there is no time to try to convince the left to “tone down” their extreme rhetoric. They need to be treated like the domestic terrorists they are.
