The silence coming from the political left on this is deafening, considering how up in arms they were when a similar tragedy unfolded back in 2011 in which AZ Rep. Gabby Giffords was shot in the head and miraculously recovered, but several others weren't so fortunate. After that incident, the left criticized everyone from Sarah Palin to Fox News to every member of the "Tea Party" as being guilty of sowing the seeds of hatred against Obama and the Democrats. Even Bernie Sanders got in on the act at the time and slammed John McCain for not being more critical of his fellow Republicans and the right-wing in general.

Now the shoe is on the other foot, and today's shooter was a dyed-in-the-wool progressive BernieBro who had been feeding himself a steady diet of hate-filled anti-Trump, anti-Republican MSM propaganda going back several years, and took it upon himself to shoot anyone with an (R) next to their name this morning.

Could you even imagine how hysterical the hypocritical left wing in this country would be right now if in some alternate universe Clinton had been in office instead and the shooter been a disgruntled Trump supporter still pissed at the election results who decided to shoot up as many Democrats as he could??? Every single Republican / conservative / Trump voter / Fox News anchor / you name it would have been blamed for this guy's actions.

Bullshit! And I don't care if I get moderated for language.  Your statement is patently false.  Immediately many left wing politicians condemned this terrible act of violence, including Bernie Sanders himself.  That may not fit in with your fake news/lie to yourself and everyone else way of thinking, but it's true.  Look it up. And then come back in here and make a correction please.
