    Republicans Facing Violence, Death Threats From Left-Wing Activists


    Republicans going home to talk to their constituents are facing violence and death threats, with some lawmakers upping security at town hall events — a consequence of a culture of violence being fostered by left-wing activists and their allies in the liberal media.

    In the lead up to the passage of ObamaCare in 2010, conservatives were vocal at town halls and other forums in their opposition to the law. Yet, despite a great deal of speculation and fearmongering by the media, town hall events were almost entirely free of violence or threats of harm.

    As the Democrats seek to mirror that opposition against President Trump and the Republican health care bill, the same commitment to non-violence is not there. Using similar tactics to “Antifa” activists opposing conservative speakers on college campuses, some anti-Trump activists are disrupting events and even resorting to threats and acts of violence.

    Not much to worry about as they for the most part are cowards in a face to face confrontation.

    But, If they do bring weapons of death to me to attempt to materialize their satanic murderous blood-lust dream then I have not only the right but the duty to defend both myself and my family.

    "Turn the other cheek" was given in a non life threatening situation..

    I believe there are those on the left who are trying to start a civil war. Not because they have thought it through and think that is the best way to effect change in this country, they just simply want to destroy it.

    They're showing up to your town meetings with bottles and weighted gloves. But in every video I see they run like cowards once they meet anyone punching back.

    And here I thought left-wing activists were so tolerant, loving and self-sacrificing.
    After all, are they not for the little guy? Of course they are, so that means the big
    guys (all who oppose them no matter how rich or poor) are fair game for threats
    and violence. Left-wing nutjobs believe they are the moral-epitome of all that is
    good and holy, and people like you and I are the real reason the world is full of
    violence, poverty, war, discrimination, so forth. You and I must be removed from
    the human race if society is to survive the brave new world.

    Violence against Republicans (and even those Independents who are conservative)
    is a means to and end. They are blinded by their rage. They believe themselves to be
    God's gifts to eradicate the human race they deem "unworthy".

    Leftists are socialists, first, before becoming all-out communists. They also know
    right from wrong. They are without excuse. I take no pity on them. See Romans 1: 28-32.

    Or when people start shooting back. In most states, a bottle is legally a lethal weapon, the same as a gun or knife.

    I notice there's no comment from our resident left wingers and never Trumpers.

    Wonder why?

    Actually, with Trump overseas, there won't be any leaks to sensationalize. Gonna be a boring week for the Trump haters.
