Democrats love to use violence to push their political agenda — and this week provided two very good, connected examples.
The first was, of course, the shooting of Rep. Steve Scalise. The shooter, 66-year-old James T. Hodgkinson, was a far-left Bernie Sanders supporter who was known for his anti-Trump views on social media. While the motive is not yet known, reports indicate that Hodgkinson was specifically seeking out Republican victims.
Sanders has since condemned the attack.
But not all liberal politicians are totally distancing themselves from the gruesome act of violence. Virginal Governor Terry McAuliffe may have spoken against the shooting, but he also used the senseless attack to push his own politician agenda.
McAuliffe may not have pulled the trigger, but he’s certainly trying to reap the rewards by capitalizing on the fallout.
See what he said that has so many irked on the next page:
Two Republicans and two Cops, a gun issue, and it only cost them one convert. Hollywood and liberals must be ecstatic.
Maybe these pussies should enforce the DEATH penalty! ! Criminals could care less if they go back to prison. The death penalty will make people think twice before doing stupid $#%&!@*
If so the country would be empty in les than a week you idiot
Shut up, go to your office and color.
No one said he was bright!
I can’t help but wonder, does someone pay these shooters?
Maybe Democrats should stop the hate ever think about that. That all they talk about hate and violence.
If no one had guns at this field.More People would be Dead

IDIOT
