This List Of Attacks Against Conservatives Is Mind Blowing
Daily Caller ^ | 6/16/17 | Dave Brooks and Benjamin Decatur

Posted on 06/16/2017 4:08:29 AM PDT by markomalley

A wave of liberal rage has marked the last 11 months since the rise and subsequent election of President Donald Trump. 

Antifa protestors clad in black masks shut down college campuses, destroy property and indiscriminately attack those they disagree with, whether women or the elderly. Meanwhile, CNN fires Kathy Griffin for taking photos with a bloody replica of the president’s decapitated head.

Amid this backdrop, The Huffington Post publishes an article calling for the execution of Trump and “everyone assisting his agenda.”

Then, shots ring out as a man gorged on media hysteria attempts to slaughter Republican congressmen while they practice for a charity baseball game.

The aggression since Trump’s nomination is difficult to enumerate, but nevertheless, The Daily Caller News Foundation poured over media reports to compile a close but non-exhaustive list of violent acts against conservatives in months following the Republican National Convention.

In creating the list, TheDCNF reviewed numerous articles detailing attacks against conservatives and Trump supporters. Only incidences of violence and threats of violence where the perpetrators were clear are included in the report, excluded are events where the instigator was difficult to discern.

Attacks over time:

July 2016:

-A Hillary Clinton supporter lights a flag on fire and attacks a Trump supporter in Pittsburgh.

-Trump supporters sue San Jose after protesters jumped on cars, stole hats, fought and threw eggs at them.

August 2016:

-Anti-Trump protesters attacked Trump supporters in Minneapolis, Minn., and beat an elderly man. Protesters also attacked Trump’s motorcade.

-Students protesting Trump punched and kicked a Maryland high school student wearing a Make America Great Again hat.

-A high school student was arrested in Florida after he punched a classmate for carrying a Trump sign at school.

-A 24-year-old was reportedly attacked on a New York subway for wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat.

-A group of black men in Chicago attacked a white man while raging against Trump. 

-High school students in Rockville, Md., physically assailed another student for supporting Trump, kicking him while he was on the ground. 

-At a California high school, a student yelled to a Trump-supporting student, “You support Trump. You hate Mexicans” before beating the girl

-An anti-bullying ambassador who supported Black Lives Matter was arrested after shoving a 65-year-old man to the ground

-A Texas elementary school student was beaten by his classmates for voting for Trump in a mock election.

-Two men punched and kicked a Connecticut man who was standing with an American flag and a Trump sign.

-A high school student in Florida punched another student who was holding a Trump sign.

-A man was murdered in Georgia after an argument about whether Trump would deport a Hispanic man.

Milo Yiannopoulos speech at the University of California-Berkeley was cancelled after rioters set the campus on fire and threw rocks through windows. They also attacked those who came to the event.

March 2017:

-Angry protestor at Middlebury College rushed AEI scholar and political scientist Charles Murray and professor Allison Stranger. Stranger was grabbed by the hair and shoved, sustaining injuries.

We are more than foolish if we expect leftists to act like virtuous human beings. They are fundamentally incapable of demonstrating chastity, temperance, charity, diligence, patience, kindness, or humility.

Rather, when reduced to their nature, they demonstrate lust, gluttony, greed, sloth, wrath, envy, and pride.

(BTW, if you're not familiar with the lists, those are the seven heavenly virtues and the seven deadly sins)

It's like the Good Book says:

For this cause God delivered them up to shameful affections. For their women have changed the natural use into that use which is against nature. ts one towards another, men with men working that which is filthy, and receiving in themselves the recompense which was due to their error. And as they liked not to have God in their knowledge, God delivered them up to a reprobate sense, to do those things which are not convenient; Being filled with all iniquity, malice, fornication, avarice, wickedness, full of envy, murder, contention, deceit, malignity, whisperers, Detractors, hateful to God, contumelious, proud, haughty, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, Foolish, dissolute, without affection, without fidelity, without mercy. Who, having known the justice of God, did not understand that they who do such things, are worthy of death; and not only they that do them, but they also that consent to them that do them.

They are like scorpions, spiders, or poisonous snakes. They're going to do what they're going to do. When you run into a black widow or a brown recluse, do you get angry with them? Do you try to reason with them to get them to change their ways? Or do you do what you need to do and move on?

If such attacks me, I will feel that my life is being threatened and respond with deadly force. Whether it is one, five, ten or twenty.

It would be very valuable to have these listed on a web page like the fake hate crimes and the jihad attacks.

The link could be published in forums when a lefty states that both sides do it.

I would post those links but I’m typing with thumbs right now.

James Hodgkinson may have pulled the trigger at that ball field the other day, but he had a lot of accomplices - Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi Maxine Waters, Bernie Sanders, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and their friends in the media and Hollywood..

That is an article.

I meant a formatted list with the newest on top continually updated.

See fakehatecrimes and thereligionofpeace sites as an example.

I’m sure someone will help out and post those links. I’m unable to at the moment.

Oh I get you, like an RSS feed. A ticker-tape of leftwing violence.

Sorry for the confusion.

I have to admit, this was the first election I didn’t have a sign in my yard or a bumper sticker. I was too afraid my home or car would be vandalized.

You have posted the unvarnished truth and every day, I see that the good is finally beginning to recognize the evil, no matter how highly placed it’s position is in this world. All it takes is the disinfectant of exposure and light to do something about it and the lies and destruction it has woven. I expect there are people who know about the webs of deceit in those who accuse our President, as they try desperately, using every insane made-up charge they can, to keep their lairs of wealth and power up and running. I also expect the people who know to spill some beans sooner or later, just like Monica did with that blue dress. Remember that blue dress, for there is a blue dress somewhere among the power elite who are trying to unseat and even to provoke the assassination of our President. Someone has that blue dress and the stories it can tell.
