Political Violence and the Left.

 I have "Blogged Repeatedly" about the left and the violence, they use violence like a volume knob, they turn it up or down as needed for whatever political purposes are necessary.

to support the political agenda, this tactic works well in blue cities and blue enclaves where "Antifa" and others of similar political beliefs can move quoting Mao out of his little Red book "We shall move through the peasants like fish through the sea" because the mayor and city council will give them political cover and hamstring the police response and actively leak the plans to them like Tampon Tims da222

   This flyer makes the round occasionally on college campuses and deep blue cities as the TDS takes hold on more people.  I'm gonna wonder what they are going to do if the GOP manages to hold Congress after the midterms especially since all the democrats have is "Trump sucks, Orange man bad, elect us and we will impeach him".  No plans on how to improve the lives of average Americans so nothing to inspire confidence in the democrats.

I clipped this off Farcebook....The assorted Cartoons are from my "Stash"

Desiree became TikTok famous after making a couple of videos suggesting that people should use their 2nd Amendment rights to shoot MAGA people and make them afraid for their lives. She called for them to be shot on sight, saying, “so if we all get our guns and use our second amendment right … and you see somebody with a MAGA hat, ‘pew pew’ that’s what we do, that’s the way, it’s the only way.” Segari made gun gestures while saying "pew pew."

On Monday, a federal court found Desiree Segari guilty for interstate communication of threats to injure and sentenced her to 14 months in prison.

This ruling is significant because a recent YouGov survey just showed that the percentage of people who believe political violence is sometimes acceptable is 25% for the very liberal, while only 3% of very conservative respondents.

42% of all liberals disagreed with the statement "political violence is never justified" while only 9% of conservatives and 9% of moderates disagreed.

While studies have disagreed about who is doing the violence, we are seeing in real time an uptick in violence against conservatives and increasing belief that this violence is justified to rid society of the evil of conservative beliefs.

42% of liberals believe that violence is sometimes necessary in politics. Not discussion, not reason, not even civil disagreement, but violence.

I am thankful for the court ruling here holding her accountable, but am fearful for the future if we don't deal with this rot at its root. Children need to be taught that human life is sacred. We can disagree, even vehemently, and not turn to hatred or violence. Teaching our children to have tough conversations without getting angry is crucial if we want to save our nation.

That is where books like Tactics by Greg Koukl, Bridge Building Apologetics by Lindsey Medenwaldt, and The Lazy Approach to Evangelism by my upcoming podcast guest Eric Hernandez really matter in learning how to have good conversations ourselves, so we can teach our children. I'll leave appropriate connections for these materials in the comments.

If we don't change course now, we may be headed for significant violence in the future
