With the increasing angry tone coming from Donald Trump, Hannity, and other right wing sources, is it causing unstable Trump supporters to commit violent acts?

Dylann Roof, Nikolaus Cruz, and now Mark Conditt are all conservatives who have committed mass murder. Is this is a new trend, violence from right wing extremists?

Agreed.

The Obama body count is astronomical.

Conservatives because they like guns? Being violent has nothing to do with whether you're a conservative or liberal. UC Berkeley essentially reeks havoc on anyone who is a conservative speaker, and that man who shot Steve Scalise was a Bernie Sanders supporter who looked out to kill anyone who was a Republican Congressman.

The answer is NO.
But I didn't vote in your stupid poll, due to the dishonest way you worded the "No" choice.

How is it dishonest? The "No" choice means they are random acts by people who happen to be conservative and Trumpism had nothing to do with it.

If you think Roof-Cruz-Conditt is a trend inspired by Trumpism, vote Yes. If you disagree, vote No. It's pretty simple.

There hasn't been any compelling evidence that could lead to the conclusion that mass shooters are more likely to be conservative or liberal. But there is evidence that shows they are more likely to be male, mentally ill, and younger than the median age of Americans.

Most of the violence continues to be young black males. Is that a result of the Obama years or a cultural problem?
