The abject denial of left-wing violence in the media and the correlating hysteria about right wing violence is disturbing and is obviously fueling the false sense of self-righteousness that is driving that very violence. Anyone with a shred of integrity denounces ALL violence, even if the perpetrators share your ideology.
To help burst anyone's delusions, here's just a few recent left-wing violent incidents off the top of my head.

- apersona 9y agoYes, all violence. Just because I don't support left-wing violence doesn't mean that I support whatever the left-wing is fighting against. That's what I hate about politics nowadays - it's either you're agree with us on everything or we immediately assume that you disagree with us on everything.
