Political Violence

 

Political violence is categorically impermissible (the means by which Adolf Hitler and the Nazis rose to power, murdering democratic socialists in the streets, Rosa Luxemburg and Karl Liebnecht being the most well known) such as the MAGAt who sped his car into the nonviolent protest in Charlottesville murdering Heather Heyer and the attempted assassination of Gabby Giffords.  Shall we list the index: James Garfield, William McKinley, Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King Jr., Robert Kennedy, John F. Kennedy, and that's the least of it.

Trump should have years ago already been in prison where the treasonous psychopath belongs, precluding the possibility of him being shot at in the first place.  As was reasonably hypothesized (the shooter could’ve been either just another psychopath with a weapon, or a disillusioned MAGAt) it turns out that the shooter was a deranged lunatic who had been bullied at school and remarkably shot up the largest gathering within his vicinity (The Trump MAGAt rally) rather than another school mass shooting.  For years there have been more mass shootings within the year than days in the year, currently 604 mass shootings within 200 days in the year so far. 

Given the GQP’s staunch support for the public owning and deregulation of military grade assault rifles and the rest, this is the most distilled example of sowing what one reaps. 

It’s improbably remarkable that Trump turned his head just as the shot was fired at him, blowing off part of his ear rather than blowing his brains out.  Such apocalyptic times we are now living within, when the GQP will allow for citizens to carry weapons such as the one Trump was shot at with, and yet again that's the least of it.

Equally impermissible have been the security and police murders of Samuel Sharpe and D'Vontaye Mitchell, two black men killed just prior to and during the Republican National Convention.  Predictably these killings have received little to no attention in the media.
