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:
The people this represents must be embarrassed to have the world witness stupid at its best. If we lost 93 million people every year we would be depopulated by now. In their rush to exaggerate their hysteria they trample over their extremely small brain and make these stupid statements.
A different scenario would be a more logical one. If there had been armed individuals around maybe they could have taken this person down before he could have shot so many innocent people.
well then in 30 days we all will be dead at that rate
Bill Tranker i forget where i found that at but its correct 😉
Blame the Dumbocrats & the Media not the guns

Idiot. It takes a good man with a gun to stop a bad man with a gun.
It did not run through his mind. It got sucked through the vacuum between his ears!

What an embarrassment to Virginia. Your such an ill informed dumb ass
Ah come on – probably the second thought.
