In the News II

Where as, Trump, is actually the one who tried to steal the election. And failed. He has gotten away with it, because his supporters voted him back into office.

There's no end to the stupidity of some of the Trump supporters. They keep pimping his fake story.

Trump was the one who did all the mail-in ballot fraud? Really?

Statistics don't lie, you can see the death rates from various actions.... And, your statement is simply false.

I have seen left wing riots many times in my life. I do not recall any from the right. Starting in the 60s. 1860s if you include the Civil War.

There are lies, damn lies, and statistics.

You can't just encompass riots you have to look at all political violence. Right wing extremists kill far more in politically motivated attacks than left wing extremists.

Also, riots tend not to be that damaging (as far as deaths,) it tends to just result in property damage.

OK. Then lets include left wingers disrupting peaceful demonstrations and speeches on the right. Remember when they threw pies at Ann Coulter?

How many people died in the devastating attack where Ann Coulter got pied?

When we are comparing death stats property damage is irrelevant...

Yes, stupidity is part of it, but I think many if not most of them feel impotent in their life and get a vicarious thrill watching the oaf bully, threaten and bluster.

I am not comparing death stats. I am pointing out that the violence on the left is many times the violence on the right. This week is just proving it yet again.

Do you consider property damage as violence?

Wrong, but that's your norm, eh?

I googled and AI spit this out...

"AI Overview
