to shoot someone. I doubt anyone in the TX Lege will do anything about it, though.

He spent time explaining why farm subsidies are a good thing. But if people don't eat, farm subsidies aren't going to work. Also I learned he is a grad of Liberty University, explains a lot there.

Resorting to violence is a sign the looser wingnuts are coming unhinged because their dreams of a right wing fantasy land are getting shredded by the reality of their own incompetence. The shear stupidity of their ideas doesn't help their cause either.

Dave Daubenmire: America Needs ‘A More Violent Christianity’

Kentucky Newspaper’s Windows Shattered Amid Rising Anti-Press Climate

Suspect in Portland Hate Crime Murders is a Known White Supremacist

If you are unfamiliar with the term: http://www.dailykos.com/story/2016/8/10/1558787/-Stochastic-Terrorism

This is stochastic terrorism coming right from the top. The authoritarian right is using militaristic language to describe the media and building a false narrative of the media's "lies" (fake news). Meanwhile actual Fake News outlets (Breitbart, InfoWars) use increasingly violent and inciting language to describe the media to the unhinged and well armed white nationalist base. Violent interactions between the racists, white nationalists, and neo-nazis and the media are inevitable at this point. It's coming right from the top, and Trump's unfiltered twitter diarrhea screaming "FAKE NEWS!!!" about CNN, NBC, etc... is going to get people hurt and killed.

In fact, it already has. It is too late.

Thanks to the brawling at rallies (caused by conservatives) and the violence (also caused by conservatives), they think we liberals are violent thugs. I hate these people more every day.
