Alert the CDC: Left-wing America has been overcome by another contagious epidemic of assassination fascination. It’s time to declare a public health crisis.
In San Antonio last week, two high school students performed a sicko skit depicting the assassination of President-elect Donald Trump.
In Cleveland, unhinged 24-year-old Zachary Benson tweeted his “life goal is to assassinate Trump.” The hashtag #AssassinateTrumpsurfaced on Twitter, along with a flood of bloodthirsty death wishes.
Another #AssassinateTrump threat came from Atlanta public transit employee Aleama Philips, who tweeted, “I wish I had the balls to kill him myself,” illustrated with a photo of Trump dead and riddled with bullets. She was fired by the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority last week.
In San Diego, the loony (and now former) CEO of cybersecurity firm PacketSled, Matt Harrigan, took to Facebook on election night to declare: “I’m going to kill the president.” He further threatened that he was “getting a sniper rifle and perching myself where it counts. Find a bedroom in the White House that suits you, [expletive]. I’ll find you.”
In the music world,Rick Ross vowed to “assassinate Trump like I’m (George) Zimmerman.”
Inevitably, the Kill Trump mania has spread overseas. French radio host Pablo Mira reportedly gloated: “Donald Trump and his victory have given a hope in the American people—the hope that he would be killed even before his inauguration.”
Where is your condemnation of these perverted incitements to violence, President Obama?
Where are you, media concern trolls, to bemoan the anti-Trump culture of hatred and climate of intolerance?
AWOL, of course. The Blame Righty crowd that has falsely blamed random shootings and suicides on conservative talk radio, the tea party, right-wing blogs and Fox News is nowhere to be found when left-wing violent extremism rears its ugly head.
Double-standard-itis is a chronic and recurring condition, accompanied by politically expedient amnesia. Assassination chic was all the rage when George W. Bush took office and extended throughout his two terms in office. I remember—even if the civility and tolerance police at The New York Times don’t.
Your typical sore loser liberals cant take the fact the people have made their choice Frankly they all need to be investigated and so should George Soros this sinister man is up to some dirty work
