Sen. Rand Paul, conservatives warn of ‘violent consequences’ of Biden rhetoric following death of North Dakota teen
Fox News ^ | Sep 22 | By Andrew Mark Miller

Conservatives on social media and on Capitol Hill are pointing to heated rhetoric from President Biden following a killing in North Dakota that left a teenager dead following a reported political disagreement.

Cayler Ellingson, 18, was killed on Sunday in North Dakota after 41-year-old Shannon Brandt allegedly ran over him with his car following a political dispute and said he believed Ellingson was a "Republican extremist," according to court documents.

In recent days, conservatives on social media have pointed to a recent speech by President Biden suggesting that supporters of former President Trump represent an "extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic."

"Words can have violent consequences," Kentucky Republican Rand Paul, who was the victim of political violence along with his wife outside the Republican National Convention in 2020, told Fox News Digital in a statement. "President Biden needs to realize that his vilification of his opponents is inflaming some of his supporters to violence. As a victim of political violence, both sides need to recognize the consequences of heated rhetoric."

I’m pretty sure Democrats don’t have a clue.
We don’t need courts for justice.
Democrats think they can buy justice from a court,
but it only works that way if you have compliance
from the population.
I will no longer comply. I’ll just stand aside
and watch you starve for what you want.

The creep was freed from jail on $50,000 bond after 'plowing down Republican teenager' during 'political argument'.

WE remember Mike Vanderboegh’s III Percent catechism:

— moral strength,
— physical readiness,
— NO FIRST USE OF FORCE
— no targeting of innocents

The crazies on the left have no morals, but we do.

How dumb do you have to be to take the orders of a dementia ridden idiot who was a loudmouthed fool for seventy years before he became dementia ridden, to go out and murder his political enenmies for him?

the left wing media don’t care about facts- they invent “The New Truth”- facts be damned- (Just liek in the michael brown “hands up don’t shoot’, the trayvon martin case, the chauvin case, etc etc etc- didn’t matter what the facts were- riots were started after the lies the media told- passing them off as facts when they were nothing but blatant bald-faced lies-

Open season is applauded by the rats and their supporters. This appears to have the markings of the political atmosphere in early Nazi Germany against the jews. Label them, isolate them murder them and the government will protect you
