In all seriousness, does any of these acts of violence surprise you?

We live in an extremely lost world, whose foundation of normal, decent, ethical, or moral behavior cannot be isolated or identified at all.

We have removed God. The problem is when that happens, we don’t become God, we become demonic.

Humans will answer to God or Satan. There is no neutral. The idiotic, vulgar, and harmful things we do to each other in the name of lust is insanity. It is what Satan wants of us. We are handing our generations to him. Vanity and pride absorb us.

God help us and heal hearts and minds.

Not surprised by anything at this point. This was predictable and urged on by the left for 8 years. We are totally lost as a country.
My son called to tell me about the shooting and I said to him (he is 25) at this point is there anything that could happen in our country at this point that would surprise you? We agreed that really nothing is surprising at this point.

No it doesn't. Not with the hate spewed here and on social media every day. And that stuff certainly isn't one sided.

But the whole idea of trying to blame one side for one person's act is ridiculous. If a son or daughter went out and robbed a liquor store it would make more sense to blame his parents and siblings than to do what I'm seeing right now.

Who urged a shooting on the left? If Biden is shot tomorrow by someone crazy, who is to blame for that? This doesn't happen in other first world countries because people don't have such easy access to guns. You can't say "Don't be critical" of this person or that person cause someone crazy might grab a gun and try to kill them.

If you are talking to me, I did not blame any side or any group. Get over yourself.

My post spoke on our species and specifically about our country. We feel we can do what we want and break down moral norms when we want yet are surprised when people do harm to others.

We hen you replace God with human desires, what happened today should not surprise anyone. Satan will take the lead.

It’s not always politics, it’s salvation.

I'm not talking to you. Europe is mostly atheist now based on polling data. Yet they don't have this happen very often. Why?

As soon as the police were neutered from arresting the 2020 rioters… you could see what Democrats wanted. This is their doing.

Supreme Court trying to tell landlords who they can evict. Mayors trying to tell police officers who they can arrest, etc.

The same people who claimed, in 2015, that Trump would destroy America are the same people who are actively trying to destroy America.

#irony

Too many dramatic bitches in democrats. This is why most men are Republican. No straight man is voting democrat. Maybe like some actors, but no real men with balls. Only chicks vote Democrat.
 
My prayers are that many who post here represent just a sliver of American society and are just more likely to post online than others. I'm not talking about political views, but just the belief in conspiracy theories and the need to go there as soon as anything of note happens.

You're ignoring a lot of rhetoric from the left, from politicians, campaigns, and the media.

EX: Calling another candidate "Hitler" or a direct "threat to democracy" or a US rep saying that Trump needs to be "taken out" is beyond the pale. It's why Scalise was shot, why Kavanaugh had an inbound assassin to his house, and why tonight happened.

The right has been calling this out for 8 years for exactly this reason. Your downplaying and/or failure to acknowledge the over-the-top rhetoric on this is poor form, imo. It's not the time for a "yeah, but...", because it's been overwhelmingly one-sided.

Even if you include J6, the shootings and lethal violence has overwhelmingly come from the left. If you disagree, please provide examples.

Yeah, Mars and Jupiter. It's pointless and hopeless.

Nope.
Happens multiple times every hour across this country.
As long as people think other people are evil or subhuman because they don't think the same, it will never end.
Heck, look at some of the vitriol spewed on this sight.
You would think we all hate each other's guts at times and we don't even know each other.
Social media has its place, but IMO it does WAY more harm than good.
Can't stand Trump, but I HATE violence.
There will be some idiots that will happy about what happened today.
Don't kid yourself though, there would also be others that would be happy if this had happened to Biden today.
That just goes back to my point above.
You are right PW.
God help us all.
 
Even though a Christian, I didn't believe in demons growing up. I do believe there are demons at work today...the same demons who have been acting against humanity since the beginning

The people come & go, but the same demons remain

I agree. It’s the most dangerous reaction is to follow the media and snap react. George Floyd is a great example. Among other issues. Mass shootings almost always involve someone jumping to conclusions. Usually the person has to be a maga. Rhetoric in the media has gotten so ridiculous and taken out of context it doesn’t surprise me that this kind of thing happened. This isn’t a conspiracy. Just one crazy idiot thinking he is doing a service. Probably mentally ill. I hope the rhetoric will slow some. I hope both sides relax. You have to understand why one side of the isle is so incredibly pissed off. The left has tried to put him in jail every way possible. That seemed to totally backfire. Now, this happens. It is a natural reaction. People are claiming our freedoms are at stake. You have shows stating that he will put people back in chains and become a dictator. Which is bs. All thru the msm. Then this happens. I wonder why.

Trump is polarizing. I know he is hated and has made plenty of enemies. That being said, snipers being interviewed said if he didn’t turn his head one second before the first shot he would be dead. If this isn’t a wake up call for some level heads, it is going to get worse. And if he was killed, who knows what happens next.

Biden and the Dems are not innocent in all this mess. Calling for Trump to be taken out and calling him Hitler. This shit must stop!✋

"For months, politicians, the press and pundits have escalated reckless rhetoric, including claims that Trump was set to kill democracy, unleash “death squads” and make homosexuals and reporters “disappear.” President Biden has also stoked this rage rhetoric.

When the president is claiming that the election may end democracy in the nation, it can be heard as much as a license as a warning. That is particularly true when he adds inflammatory lines such as “we’re done talking about the debate, it’s time to put Trump in a bullseye.”

Yea. They took things too far. They know it. But now they want the other side to turn the other cheek too. I can’t help but to somehow hope the trump supporters do turn the other cheek. We need to be Americans now instead of pubs and Dems. Regardless of who I feel like opened Pandora’s box. I have said this for months. Something really bad is going to happen. Tonight was just about as bad as it gets. We have morphed into a banana republic. I am not mad. I am sad.

No one is blaming the left for the act of one person, but for the vitriol spewed daily by the left, we knew after the false charges, the option to get him off the ballot failed this was the next step these sick and evil leftist resort to. It was carried out by an impressionable leftist after hearing the calls for violence the last 6-7 years against conservatives. You can not deny the hatred did not lead to this.

Europe is becoming a Muslim state. Satan is having his way with Europe. You do this type of thing under Sharia law and you are hung the next day.

A European atheist isn’t allowed to shoplift $900 without legal penalty. We can start splitting hairs.

it is truly heart-breaking to me. I am almost 65 years old. And realize how naive I have been for so long. About 10 years ago, started waking up to the fact our government, on both sides, has become a banana republic political weapon.

Not me, been telling my family for weeks that this has been my biggest fear. If you can’t beat him, take him out.

still shocking to me this could happen. I have some buddies that have been saying for awhile, by whatever means, THEY (elite commies... RINOS too) will NOT and can NOT let Trump win or make it to the election.

Democrats ALWAYS accuse the other party of doing the things that they themselves have done. Always.

This is the answer, Ephesians 6:12

Take head out of sand! Numerous dims have urged violence against pubs. Just last week one of the Hollywood commies called for his assassination. I’m not providing links. You look it up it’ll do you some good maybe.

Maxine Waters was never reprimanded by anyone in her party. Her marching orders to attack and harass republicans were horrible
