Conservative versus liberal violence

2001400ex

A 2015 survey of law-enforcement agencies conducted by the Police Executive Research Forum and the Triangle Center on Terrorism and Homeland Security found that the police rate antigovernment extremists as a greater threat than reactionary Islamists. The authors wrote that “right-wing violence appears consistently greater than violence by Muslim extremists in the United States since 9/11, according to multiple definitions in multiple datasets.” According to the Department of Homeland Security, “Sovereign Citizens”—fringe antigovernmentalists—launched 24 violent attacks from 2010 through 2014, mostly against law enforcement personnel. When Robert Dear shot and killed three people at a Colorado Springs Planned Parenthood clinic in 2015, it became the latest in a series of bloody attacks on abortion providers dating back to Roe v. Wade in 1973. In the 30 years that followed that landmark decision, providers and clinics were targeted in more than 300 acts of violence, including arson, bombings, and assassinations, according to a study by the Rand Corporation.

Good to see that you accept Muslim savages as being part of the left.

Most free folk get in shootouts on traffic stops. Often wanted for other non violent stuff. Some are crazier. Any shoot up a congressional ball game? A Trump resort? Free state people are domestic assholes not domestic terrorists.

Free staters don't have a party. They just hate government no matter which side is running it. How does that make them on the right? All you socialist/commie queers want to do away with it too.

Steve Scalise called and asked if you want to play a little softball.

Rand Paul called and asked if you could mow his lawn.

Oh, and, fuck off
