As liberals lose debate after debate, and election after election, they are increasingly resorting to violence as other courses prove unproductive for their agenda.

While the liberals are overjoyed to find one, or even two, Republicans who cause an isolate incident similar to their own, their own violence, intimidation and incitement far outstrips anything the Republicans have done... and continues unabated and even increasing.

Why Are Liberals So Violent?

by Craig Shirley and Scott Mauer | July 3, 2018 | 12:35 PM EDT

“I’m going to find the Congressman’s kids and kill them.”

These words weren’t written in a novel from some evil villain, hell-bent on destroying a politician’s life. They weren’t said in a movie where the FBI or CIA track down some domestic terrorist. They were allegedly said by a man named Laurence Wayne Key, from Florida. The target were the children of House Representative Brian Mast, Republican. Senator Rand Paul was assaulted by his next door neighbor, not for the way he trimmed his hedges, but for his conservatism.

Last week, the congresswoman Maxine Walters called for leftists to get out and “create a crowd, and you push back on them [the Trump administration]. And you tell them they’re not welcome anymore, anywhere.” She claimed she did not urge them to do violence, but does anybody doubt she in fact was?

Can anyone forget the ugly and twisted look on the face of the female college professor, calling for some “muscle” to get rid of someone she disagreed with? On a public campus?

Such is the modern Democratic and liberal party, where violence trumps dialogue, where calls for the heads of politicians and their kin are more than just words, they’re actual threats.

Why do you always start these ridiculous and puerile straw man arguments?

Please name one leftist policy that can be implemented without forcing people at gunpoint.

Is it true or not. Try and be honest.

Didn't read the article. The reality of why is not hard to discern:
1 - An underlying psychological premise of self-loathing. This has been much acknowledged and written about. Search it.
2 - Possibly related to the above, a lack of maturation. Or call it: perpetual adolescence. You see it everyday on here with Junior HS-type comments. These are not adults.
3 - Many, many policies that are not founded on facts and reality. And often, are grounded in simply TAKING from others.
4 - The Left looks at their Party as a savior and benefactor. Therefore, they have guilt and shame about criticizing them which allows lots of rot to fester and it eventually takes over the Party, which it has.
5 - A general IQ deficit. Note the "safe space" geniuses on college campuses and those like the Red Hen owner who damaged her business, her community and her standing....all for her perceived sense of "justice" which actually amounted to bigotry. An excellent example of low IQ because she was too stupid to understand all that.

So, when things get REAL, as they are inclined to do, none of the above equips the Left of being able to handle things like mature, developed people with a solid capacity to think and reason. So, they result to violence. (similar to animals)

Indeed, justice and truth work directly against their agenda of fooling people into believing (a) Big Govt has any ability to straighten out the problems they see, and (b) Big Govt has any authority to do so.

the kind of totalitarian government that the left wants to implement has to generally be forced upon the people. the communist revolutions in russian, china, cuba, eastern europe, cambodia, and many other communist countries are great examples.



if communism was such a good form of government, the people would be clamoring for it, but they arent. thus the need to force, usually through violence, a communistic form of government on the people.

Facts > conjecture. Reality has a liberal bias.

Nationalist and Right Wing terrorists are the second deadliest group of terrorists by ideology and account for 219 murders and 6.6 percent of all terrorist deaths. The chance of being murdered in a Nationalist or Right Wing terrorist attack was 1 in 33 million per year. The 1995 Oklahoma City bombing, the second deadliest terrorist attack in U.S. history after 9/11, killed 168 people and accounted for 77 percent of the murders committed by Nationalist and Right Wing terrorists. Left Wing terrorists killed only 23 people in terrorist attacks during this time but 13 since the beginning of 2016. Nationalist and Right Wing terrorists have only killed 5 since then, including Charlottesville. Meanwhile, the annual chance of being murdered by a Left Wing terrorist was about 1 in 330 million per year. Regardless of the recent upswing in deaths from Left Wing terrorism since 2016, Nationalist and Right Wing terrorists have killed about 10 times as many people since 1992. Terrorists with unknown or other motivations were the least deadly.
