Also crickets from the left about this.

 

Injuring secret service agents by the dozens is just fine if it's done while rioting against the orange dude.

GIVEN ALL THE LEFTIES CHEERING FOR LUIGI MANGIONE, IS THIS A SURPRISE? 

 

 

Months after CEO’s killing, an intruder is arrested near UnitedHealthcare headquarters in Minnesota.

 

 

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — A man was arrested near UnitedHealthcare’s headquarters in Minnesota after threatening violence, months after the company's CEO was killed, authorities said Monday.

 

The man was spotted around 11 a.m. in a parking lot outside of the UnitedHealthcare corporate campus in the Minneapolis suburb of Minnetonka. City spokesman Andy Wittenborg said the man contacted the FBI's field office in Minneapolis once he arrived, and an FBI negotiator made contact with him by phone.

Why Progressives Increasingly Support Violence

Zack Dulberg, Max Horder

 

Political violence in America is not just a relic of the past. From the attempted assassinations of Donald Trump to the murder of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson, to the burning of Teslas in protest of Elon Musk, political violence is a present-day reality. More than 9,000 threats have been made against members of Congress this year—a “huge increase,” according to officials.

 

Are these events aberrations or do they reflect a national problem? Are they connected? And does the public support them?

 

A new report from our group, the Network Contagion Research Institute, provides answers. Our research, based on nationally representative surveys and analyses of online activity, demonstrates the existence of online subcultures that support the murder of public figures like Trump and Musk. This “assassination culture,” incubated on social media, has migrated from the margins of public life into the mainstream.

 

We found that nearly one-third of Americans surveyed—and around half of those identifying as left-of-center—believe that the murder of certain public figures is at least somewhat justified. The figures are startling: 38 percent of respondents, and 55 percent of those left of center, said assassinating President Trump would be at least somewhat justified; 31 percent of respondents, and 48 percent of those left of center, said the same about Musk. Forty percent of respondents, and 58 percent of those left of center, deem it at least somewhat acceptable to “destroy a Tesla dealership” in protest.

I'm glad you continue to be persuaded by the highly reliable "network contagion."
