1. Civility starts in the mirror for that crowd

And should be followed by a great deal of introspection on what role they have had to enable violence through their support of Drumpf and the cashing NRA checks FOR DECADES.

6. Chuck Fleischmann quoted as saying he's there to represent the people

A tidbit on Chuck Fleischmann:

Rep. Chuck Fleischmann, Republican of Tennessee, sits on the health care appropriations panel. As Vice President Joe Biden was pressing lawmakers to approve funding for his “Cancer Moonshot” proposal in the summer of 2016, a Fleischmann family account invested in two companies, Juno Therapeutics and Celgene, which were developing new cancer drugs. One of the investments was made a week before the Obama administration announced new measures that would speed up approval for cancer therapies.

7. DGT Jr Said Just a Couple Days Ago That Democrats Aren't People

shitgibbon Sr has openly called for violence against anyone who doesn't adulate and get on their knees to him. Mitch McConnell has been holding secret meetings about health care behind closed doors. Paul Ryan slammed through a hideous health care bill a few weeks ago.

Limbaugh and others of his kind dominate the airways. Fox Propaganda Channel still leaves vital facts out of items they report on and lie about the rest.

I can think of a few good places for rethugs to start. Too bad they are way too late.

12. A blind link is one posted without any "fair use" text (4 paragraphs) i.e.

House Republicans earlier this year discussed ramping up security in light of new anti-Donald Trump and anti-Republican anger on the far-left.

Now, they fear their worst nightmare has come true: a politically motivated shooting.

Republicans on Capitol Hill are fretting that their colleagues were targeted by a gunman during a Wednesday congressional baseball practice because of their party affiliation — or because of an anti-Trump sentiment pulsing through the nation. Many are asking about additional security, fearing they could be next, while also calling for civility to be restored to an increasingly divisive political discourse.

Speaking to reporters just hours after the shooting, Rep. Jeff Duncan recounted an exchange he had with the gunman before he opened fire — and before the South Carolina Republican realized the man was a threat. Duncan said the shooter stopped him in the parking lot by the field as he was leaving team practice early and asked him if Republicans or Democrats were playing.
