Those who cheered on the latter murder should now be examining their consciences.

The historical record is very clear: in politics, violence begets violence. This story is only beginning and it may not end well for America.

    I don’t think you understand OP’s point. They aren’t saying that the motivations are equally valid, they are saying that political violence of any kind will always escalate into further and wider violence.

        then what was it? was he trying to make a point of some sort? the whole deny, depose, ect writen on the bullet casings?

        was it simple murder? because if so I doubt he would’ve written a manifesto about it

          Can you show me where his actions supported a particular party? Affordable healthcare is not a political party.

            physically fighting against and killing a member of a large power structure like this is a political act. There doesn’t need to be an organized political party on the other end of this for it to be political

            for example, the 2020 BLM protests, were those political acts? what political party did they support?
