While the left celebrates the murder of Charlie Kirk this is how Trump reacted when a leftist icon passing away...
We arent like them....

The difference between Left and Right
- Thread starter TigerRagRob
- Start date
So I’ll ask: The conservatives’ outrage of the last 30 hours, where was that level of emotion after these innocent deaths and/or attempted killings (in no particular order):
• Minnesota legislator’s death
• Capitol police casualties from J6
• Uvalde
• Trayvon Martin
• Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church
• Sandy Hook
• Pulse
• Vegas
• Fort Hood
• Ahmaud Arbery
• Blacksburg
• Gretchen Whitmer
• Parkland
• Texas First Baptist
• Gabby Giffords
• Lewiston
And hundreds more. Affecting thousands.
And a majority of attackers, statistically speaking, are angry and violent conservatives. Facts.
And every other developed country in the world prevents these things from happening at the rate they happen here. Not even close.
And Republicans are the ones blocking anything from being done and offering weak reasons why.
And Republican-run states have higher crime rates.
I’m not a both sides guy but I’ll say unflinchingly that liberals must also face up to problems with violence. Yet it clearly is not equivalent in the numbers on the streets or in the policy that Democrats stand on.
Stop listening to right-wing propaganda. Look at the statistics. They’re there.
Calling facts fake news or wall of text just because your political team doesn’t like them or is to blame for them is as un-American as it gets.
I feel absolutely heartbroken
for the Kirk kids who will grow up without their father, just like all other kids who have lost a parent or both to senseless violence. Or to any circumstance, truly. It’s never the kids’ fault.
I am a big fan of moderate politics. I register NPA. I have voted for Republicans. Not lately, not with today’s platforms.
I believe there are still some conservative elements that could help America be governed well if only they were being used. The people who espouse these things are being shouted down as RINOs when their platforms truly are conservatism in its most effective form for making America great.
But let’s be clear: There’s no ground to stand for Republicans getting sanctimonious about being a party of righteousness when, right now, that house is absolute trash.

I am sorry Trump won 3x in a row and your party is hemorrhaging numbers so badly.
Chin up, limp wrist.
Conservatives dont commit most of the crimes and its not even close. Where we could find common ground on a good bit of that, when you just lie and project then we cant find any common ground. In red states most of the crime is committed in blue counties...So I’ll ask: The conservatives’ outrage of the last 30 hours, where was that level of emotion after these innocent deaths and/or attempted killings (in no particular order):

It's an old cliche by now, but everyone knows you can't wear a MAGA hat in a blue city. Everyone knows you might get assaulted, killed, or at the very least screamed at, spit on, your car keyed.
Conservatives in LA are very careful never to put political stickers on their cars or hang Trump flags on their homes. If you do, you are risking death, violence, getting swatted.
But if you wore a Kamala or Hillary hat in a red city all you would get are eye rolls.
This has been the case for a decade now. Liberals have never been asked to explain this. Everyone accepts this as just part of life in blue cities -- zero tolerance for political differences.
Has a single leader from the left done anything differently?
There were those on the right that joked about Hortman’s death btw.
Dude there is a video from this week where literal demons in congress **** themselves when the speaker asked for a moment of silence for Charlie kirk. This is beyond reprehensible.
I don’t get personal often, but I’m going to share the moment I became truly radicalized:
2018, I’m 25 years old, and my brainwashed liberal girlfriend wanted to go to the Burning Man exhibit at the Renwick Gallery in DC.
Inside the museum, there was a room where you could write wishes on the walls with chalk, as part of an interactive art exhibit. It’s a re-creation of the “before I die” board they put up at Burning Man, where people list things they want to do before they die.
As an undercover Trump-supporting Libertarian at the time, I was horrified by the hateful and terrible things I saw all these leftists writing on the wall. Most things were normal wishes, but there were large portions of hateful wishes, like wishing for Trump to die, talking about punching Nazis (Trump supporters), blaming White people for racism, etc.
Then I saw a line that said “Before I die, I want to bury the last Republican”.
I turned to my girlfriend at the time, and pointed out how this was ****** up, and she looked me dead in the eye, and said she agreed with wanting to “bury the last Republican” and what she saw on the walls.
I told her I was going to erase it, and she grabbed me and told me not to disturb this “safe space” and art exhibit….
In that moment, I saw pure evil in the eyes of someone I thought I loved. In a fit of rage, I began using my hands to smear/erase all the hateful and vile comments on the chalkboards in this silent room, while my girlfriend tried to stop me and onlookers gasped.
I stormed out of the Renwick Gallery, waited outside for my girlfriend, and she was livid that I ruined an interactive art piece at a museum, and she was infuriated that she found out her boyfriend was a silent Trump supporter. In that moment, I accepted they my life as I knew it was over. I called an Uber, went home, never been the same since.
That day, I truly learned these leftists were sick and disgusting people, and there is no saving them. Since that moment, I have been hellbent on exposing how evil these people are, and that evil exposed itself again yesterday in the form of Charlie Kirk’s assassination.
I’ve been radicalized this whole time because I’ve been living in Northern Virginia/Maryland/DC this whole time. I’ve been living in the belly of the beast, and if you haven’t seen these people up close, you don’t know their true hatred.
These people are truly sick.
Yea, it was for a spoken prayer, not silence. And the reaction was still absolutely fvcking stupid.
I’ve stated in another thread I wouldn’t have, even if I feel it is inappropriate on the floor of our government. But still different than what was stated above in an effort to make it sound even worse and inflame things further.
Agreed. The constant fake news from both sides is exhausting and makes it so you can’t trust anything you read.
Not defending them at all, but I am interested in accuracy. There wasn’t push back until Lauren Bobert asked for a prayer to be said aloud. They are still mouth breathing ******** for the reaction, but again, let’s be accurate.
Should it make a difference if he is stating prayer or moment of silence??? I get your point but this should be a no doubt moment and the demoncrats blow it up.
Yea, Republicans generally aren’t the looting type. The videos during the summer of love pretty clearly show the make-up of that group.
Who joked about it? Why would they joke about a Dem that voted with us being killed by the far-left?
Can you not understand that in one case the person was killed by the State and the other the person was killed by (as far as we know) a random civilian? What's there to riot against with Charlie Kirk?
Wow. Did you think critically about this one before posting?
I get that you dont get whats being said with this. Let me help you out Ill give a hint. What do all of them have incommon?
A Republican Senator did, Mike Lee. As usual you're ridiculous with your second sentence, there is literally zero evidence he was "far left" but you do you.
I think he gets it. I just think he, like me, think it's stupid.
Also frustrating that on one hand the right right now is calling out the rhetoric of the left, and on the other hand regularly using the term "demoncrats". FTR, I didn't like it when the left used deplorables either. Both are dehumanizing and escalating rhetoric of the "other"
