For those who are trying to paint either side as the more politically violent side, can we stop for a minute and just accept the fact that it is both.
Oct 8, 2020 - Gretchen Whitmer Kidnapping Plot
Jan 6, 2021 - Trump Supporters storm the Capitol
Oct 28, 2022  San Francisco, California  Attack on Paul Pelosi
July 13, 2024  Butler, Pennsylvania  Shooting at Donald Trump campaign rally
Sept 15, 2024  West Palm Beach, Florida  Attempted assassination at Trump golf course
April 13, 2025  Harrisburg, Pennsylvania  Arson attack at Governor Josh Shapiro’s official residence
June 14, 2025  Minnesota (Brooklyn Park & Champlin)  Shootings of state legislators and spouses
Sept 10, 2025  Orem / Utah Valley University, Utah  Assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk
To point the finger at one particular side is foolish. If anyone wants to defend any of these incidents, please unveil yourself as a hyprocite.

Miss me with that "both sides are equally bad" shit.
Trump Called for a Crackdown on the ‘Radical Left.’ But Right-Wing Extremists Are Responsible for More Political Violence — TIME

My point isn't really meant to be both sides are equally bad, as I don't believe that in the slightest. It's more meant to be that if you only paint one set of actions bad, or if you only condemn the actions against 'your side' you're a hypocrite.
Many who detest the Charlie Kirk Assassination often cheer or defend the assault on Paul Pelosi, the attack on the capitol, the planned kidnapping of Governor Whitmer and set a double standard. I didn't quote the person I was aiming the statement at as I didn't want to outright dismiss their discontent about what did happen, I merely wanted to point out that either all acts of violence are deplorable or none are.
