    You know those mentally unstable people who feel they need to unilaterally perform a violent act in order to fix some problem in the world?

    Some people like that are “law enforcement”.

    Some people like that are anti-“law-enforcement”.

    Surely you see how this violence spirals downward unless the adults in charge start acting like … adults

        No; I am saying that violent Trump rhetoric leads to “patriot” types who think they are doing God’s work by killing Renée Good.

        And then those kinds of acts lead to “righteous” types who think they are accomplishing a greater good by assassinating Trump and/or his cabinet.

        And that these two types of violent behaviors feed on each other.

        And that the antidote is the opposite of what started it: for the President of the USA to categorically denounce political violence (and it would be nice if he’d not bomb civilians like both parties have but at least don’t fucking brag about doing it or threaten to do so on social media FFS)
