Liberals are increasingly advocating for violence against people who work in the Trump administration (as well as those who work for ICE, and, heck, anyone who is a Republican). This was especially true from Rep Maxine Waters. If even CNN is saying this is a problem (though they softened what she has been saying), it’s a problem. We see things like a photo of a burning limo and that Resistance members are coming with pliers and a blowtorch” (they should remember that a lot of Republicans own firearms before trying this). These are the same people who seemingly had no condemnation of the violent Antifa, Occupy Wall Street, or BLM
This is an excellent point. You can be wounded by words, but if words lead to actual violence they're fine as long as they're spoken on your side. https://t.co/7oLAPAyRdO

The Resistance nuts have escalated to harassing government officials at their offices, at movies, at restaurants, and at their homes, so
(Washington Examiner) Facing a new wave of potentially dangerous threats, called for by a top Democratic lawmaker, legal and gun experts are calling on top Trump aides to get their concealed carry permit and back it up with a pistol.
“There are simply not enough police in D.C. or Virginia or Maryland to protect all Trump officials at their homes and when they go out to restaurants. Getting a concealed handgun permit would be helpful to protect themselves and their family,†said John R. Lott Jr., president of the influential Crime Prevention Research Center.
“High level officials in the Trump administration, especially if their faces are likely to be recognized by many in the public as a result of appearances on TV, might want to consider applying for a license to carry a concealed weapon in the District of Columbia, and/or other states they frequent, in view of the call by Rep. Maxine Waters for the public to ‘absolutely harass’ these officials in public places, and other recent events indicating the increased danger they are in,†added public interest law professor John Banzhaf.
Many others are recommending the same thing.
It’s funny how those on the left tell us they are proud to be non-violent, then make all sorts of threats of violence, and violence itself.
