...political violence right now (and by an obscure freshman congressmen no less, LOL!) by pointing out the there were leftist-led violent riots all over the country last year. We can't be led to the place where we already are.

In pointing out this obvious fact, I'm excusing neither the left's violence nor the right's hypothetical violence should the right actually follow the obscure congressman's alleged instructions to engage in it. Unlike the left, I condemn violence on both sides, not just the other side, which is why I wrote earlier today that the 1/6 protestor who attacked cops got the sentence he deserved.

My other post below about the protests in front of a school board member's home is unrelated to violence, as none has occurred, and I'd condemn it if it did. Demanding that the right play by a stricter set of rules than the left has passed its sell-by date. If the right now decides to play by the left's rules, then the left has already provided all the justification needed, and nothing additional is needed from me or anyone else. It's not "who did it first" -- it's "what are the rules".
