Leftist Violence And Double Standards
Frontpagemag.com ^ | May 3, 2016 | Ari Lieberman

The so-called “mainstream” national media has developed a penchant for focusing on violence originating from certain quarters while all but ignoring hooliganism emanating from others. The disparity in treatment is due primarily to an agenda being pushed by leftist elements within the media establishment, including, but not limited to, MSNBC and the New York Times.

Until we fight back, this will continue to happen. Don't expect the media to cover left on right violence. If they do, the right will be blamed for provoking the left. If it happens the other way, the right will be portrayed as bloodthirsty savage animals. That is how it is portrayed now and will be portrayed all summer long.

In the beginning stages of Fascism, this was the political ‘style’ of all totalitarian types. It began in France with the ‘Action Francaise’ and spread all over Europe under various names and finally articulated itself fully as Nazism.

Politically, all these ‘ism’s’ are unique, but they ALL held this ‘style’ in common... their arbitrary, mindless, crude and malicious intimidation and intolerance.

Nothing and no one was exempt from THEIR open and very violent behavior.

No establishment agencies stood up to them, so of course there was a wholesale destruction of the traditional, assured legal ‘rights’ of citizens. The long standing rights of citizens who disagreed were not respected, or tolerated. Nothing was salvaged.

It seems that about 98% of politically related violence and intimidation and denial of free speech comes from the left, yet it is a constant theme in the MSM that we are always right on the verge of massive, right-wing violence. Conservatives are routinely called “haters,” yet most of the vilest, crudest hate comes from the mouths of the left, including children.

"while Sanders and Clinton haven't promised any violence..."

No, they've just paid for others to do violence to Trump supporters at rally venues Trump has paid for.

Sanders and Clinton have made sure that there are some layers of separation in order to present the appearance of plausible deniability.

When will the media decry the culture of violence of Clinton and Sanders' supporters?
