I happen to stop on Fox News! Yep, a "BIGLY" mistake! I watched for a few minutes, but in the few minutes that I did, there was some character(I have never seen or heard of this joker) on there spouting rhetoric about the shooting on Wednesday. He said the left is full of hate and will doing almost anything to take out the GOP and the good people of the Republican party! He went on to say that every right winger should arm themselves to protect them from the radical left!
There is so much wrong in his statement! I know there are bad people in all walks of life. Some are to pushed to the edge by what they are taught, hear and what the they believe. We have a president to who spewed hatred against all of people of the left and those who don't agree with his ideas, his lies, and his agenda. to the anchor on Fox, to set there and say all the people on left are full of hatred, it might be true to extent! But there are a lot of great people on the left, in the middle and the right too. We all have our limits, but I will not go arm myself to because I am in fear of those on the right. You are trying to get ratings and carry on from where your lost buddy, O'Reilly, left off!

(58,666 posts)The real hate is on the right, and they think we hate them as much as they hate us.
Getting closer, but I still say those of us on the left are far less likely to resort to that kind of violence.

(1,965 posts)Uhhh. I do. More if that's possible. On a good day when I'm feeling magnanimous I rise to a level of extreme revulsion and disgust with a seething white hot loathing for them.

(1,325 posts)I remember when Gabby Giffords and the people around her were gunned down.
Couldn't buy a bullet in the USA as soccer moms, hippies, poets, grandmas and democrats in general raced to the gun shops to buy ammo and more weapons. MSNBC was calling on the left to arm themselves for the coming assault from the right. The rest of the media proclaimed the hatred of the right and its attempts to stop all things democratic as a danger to the nation. And Fox News did numerous introspective stories on the violence of their followers.
No wait, it was a lone gunman.
