Political violence is of course bad… but as soon as you call for it, especially indirectly, you deserve whatever comes to you. Stochastic terrorism is still terrorism, and there’s not a lot more American than the fact we don’t negotiate with terrorists.

You seem to misunderstand. We don’t negotiate. We supply them because they’re killing people we want killed, or we blow them up.

Yeah, the victim literally called for it. He celebrated it against his enemies, I’m not all that tore up about it
Political violence is bad… But what no one seems to be saying is that it’s a symptom.
You can’t stop it. You can’t take all the guns. You can’t crack down on it.
It’s a sign of where we are as a country right now.
