    Oh, and I guess political violence was not a feature of US life when the sitting president called for an insurrection and planned a coup in parallel?

      Also pick a year and there has been political violence, especially with conservatives in charge. Minorities have suffered under political violence so much that it’s given them collective generational trauma.

      Conservatives are finally getting what they asked for and they’re even getting it in the way they asked for, which is delightfully poetic. If guns are to be used against tyrrany then I guess we get to see Kirk’s blood fall out his neck instead of his trial.
