The SPLC is not the definitive voice on this topic but regardless, if you wanna match violence for violence, you’ll lose. However, I’ve gone down this road before. You’ll deny association with multiple groups but demand that conservatives are closely aligned with anyone you want to assign to them. You’ll refuse to include antifa or police killers on your side but you’ll lump Tim McVey on my side. The guy who shot up the Congressional baseball game will be mentally unstable but Gabby Giffords shooter will count towards me. That’s the only way you can keep this game close.

 I agree.  Comparative violence is a waste of time typically, but its easier than working for a solution, and I feel better if I make someone else out to be a villain instead of working on improving myself and my community.

"Is Black Lives Matter on that list? "

 No.

Just one story of many, I’d win by a mile. Not even close.

Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) and her staffers are facing taunts and threats over Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, including a rape threat, reports the New York Times.
Buried under no fewer than ten paragraphs and the anodyne headline, “Interest Groups Turn Up Pressure on Senators Before Kavanaugh Vote,” the far-left New York Times finally gets to the meat of the story with the news that Collins and her staffers are facing “threats” and “vulgar language” from the left-wing Resistance, all of this in the hope of intimidating Collins to vote against Kavanaugh’s confirmation.

“The [left’s] frustration has boiled over at points,” the Times understates. “Annie Clark, a spokeswoman for Ms. Collins, provided The New York Times with copies of a letter and multiple voice mail messages addressed to the senator using vulgar language and outright threats.”



One example of a threat is a “caller [who] told a 25-year-old female staff member at one of Ms. Collins’s Maine offices that he hoped she would be raped and impregnated.”

Collins has also had some 3,000 coat hangers mailed to her office (a reference to the back alley abortion).

Protesters have shown up at Collins’ private home in Bangor.

Again, that's protest - First Amendment.

Yea, ok. If you and this article say so.

You have "alternative facts"?...

...or just your usual anecdoodles?...

Threaten - no, not cool.  It's assault and should be punished accordingly.

But mailing a coat-hanger?  That's a protest.  It does not inflict pain or suffering.

Sorry mark, you can't possibly think that the left is exclusive in motivating.

Pizzagate?  Abortion clinic bombings?  trump himself inciting violence at his rallies? (“I’d like to punch him in the face”  - “Maybe he should have been roughed up” - “Part of the problem is no one wants to hurt each other anymore” - “I don’t know if I’ll do the fighting myself or if other people will” - “The audience hit back. That’s what we need a little bit more of” - “If you do (hurt him), I’ll defend you in court, don’t worry about it”)

So yeah, you want to talk about actual violence, the trumpsters have the market cornered.
