What do you think is the reason why these violent acts have skyrocketed in 2021 after Biden was sworn in and may set a new record in 2022 while Biden is still President.

Keep in mind there were many left wing violent attacks by BLM and Antifa in 2020 when Democrats were shutting things down everywhere for longer than just a short term flatten the curve reasons.

In my opinion, the biggest win would be if he could enact stricter gun control laws. Congress doesn't agree.
Some of it is mental health for sure, and that is hard to make happen without spending huge amounts. Congress won't agree.
Some of it is better trained law enforcement and courts that work more efficiently. I'm hopeful on this one.

Liberals and progressives love inciting violence. They divide people based on social, economic, racial, religious lines. It’s actually amazing to watch. Unfortunately, there are severe consequences to that as we can see.

We've raised a generation of people who don't respect life, who have been coddled and told they are constant victims, and who have been told that our country is evil and racist.

We've diminished the value of "family" and elevated the concept of selfishness.

We've diminished the idea of respect for our institutions and for things that are bigger than one's self.

People have grown up to become narcissists by constant social media. There is also a copycat element to it.

Those are the biggies.

Democrats control Congress and the White House.

2017 saw a peak of 177 fatal injuries from mass shootings under DJT. 51 have been killed this year under Biden. Why 2017? A big chunk (61) of that was the Las Vegas shooting. Even without that though, 2022 is looking to come in under 2017, statistically.

Seems low. Whatever biased cite you're looking at must be intentionally excluding all the mass shootings in urban hellholes run by Democrats.

I don’t get it. Their guy won. Big bad orange man is gone.
They’re supposed to be happy and loving life now that the dark days are over.
Oh I forgot, we’re talking about liberals here. A miserable lot that are never happy.
