When the "white supremacist" kid ran over a liberal woman at Charlottesville the liberals talked about it for months.

1. Nancy Pelosi's daughter, who's the chair of the California Democratic Party women’s caucus and political strategist, tweeted that "Rand Paul's neighbor was right" in support of the violent attack on him.
Further, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) retweeted a message by increasingly loony actor Tom Arnold, effectively endorsing the violent assault against Paul, but later deleted it after the outcry even though USA Today tried dismissing it as "a subtle jab"
And former Obama staffer Tommy Vietor mocked Paul concerning the violent attack sneered on Twitter "Start doing a better job not getting beat up by your neighbor."
It looks like Rand Paul made some comments concerning the murder of Ellingson warning Biden that he "needs to realize that his vilification of his opponents is inflaming some of his supporters to violence." He added that, "As a victim of political violence, both sides need to recognize the consequences of heated rhetoric."
Unless he is talking about something else this statement that, "As a victim of political violence" looks like he regarded that attack in his backyard as politically motivated and not a property dispute.

One could read into it an implicit message that it would somehow be somewhat justifiable if it was politically motivated, and headlines about the State Patrol's statements have said something along the lines of "No evidence teen was extremist Republican". What if he was? That shouldn't change anyone's view of what happened.

IMO, although I think it is wrong for the POTUS to be villainizing his political opposition, this whole subject is a variation of "mean tweets". This guy who ran over the teen almost certainly would have attacked someone else for some other reason. The problem here isn't Biden's rhetoric, it is an unstable person who would have gone off on someone eventually for any reason. We have a population over 300 million and one guy murders someone allegedly for political reasons. That's not a good reason to stifle political speech but a reminder that there are nuts in this world.

The problem here is that old Joe has been giving folks a rationalization for being able to attack and even kill people they don't like. Either it is that they're a conservative or that thinking that they might be conservative. Both are "legitimate" excuses now for far too many.
Unlike Trump's rhetoric, which the MSM insisted would eventually result in people being killed, we have seen actual lethal violence from the left over and over resulting from their rhetoric -- which old Joe is trying to ramp up to 11.

According to his neighbors he's a habitual drunkard, likely with mental issues, who goes on rampages but AFAICT, his arrest record is one for DUIs, unlawful possession of alcohol and fleeing the police on foot.
One would think if he had a history of violence that his already ridiculously low bail would have been higher.

And every one of those people who rioted in 2020 were unstable nutjobs, IMO. Did any of your friends or family riot? No? Because they aren't nuts.
(Also, given that the former president literally called for violent treatment of protesters at his rallies, I think conservatives just need to be quiet on this one, at least as far as Biden himself.)Last edited by KingsGambit; 09-25-2022, 09:40 AM."I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion.

I'd also be hesitant to draw the lines here directly to Biden. Even assuming at face value it was political in nature (which seems likely enough), one can't directly draw a line between any one person's rhetoric and what happened. At most, we could blame a general heightened set of political tensions (which Biden didn't create out of thin air, though he has exacercated.) If one insists that Biden has to own this, future turnabout is very, very likely. It just takes one person.

Biden makes a speech denouncing Republican's as "extremists" who are a danger to the country.
A couple of weeks later, some clown murders a kid because he says the victim was a Republican extremist. And from news reports he seems to think that is a valid defense.
I wonder where he got that idea from?
So what's next? The man who travelled from California with plans to assassinate Kavanaugh just decided on his own, with no outside influences?
Or maybe, the multiple shooting of Republicans at a softball game practice is inexplicable and without a motive[1]?
And bluntly, to act like Trump didn't get his feet held to the fire for his rhetoric is laughable.
1. Even after his motive became clear, the FBI was repeatedly trying to class it as "suicide by cop" until a backlash from law makers from both sides put an end to it. At the same time (three years after the shooting), KHOU 11, a CBS affiliate in Houston was claiming that even though he had an "anti-Republican social media presence" that "Hodgkinson’s motive is unknown."
