Do Democrats Want Us Dead?

If it's a fringe cheering on political murder, the majority of Democrats don't seem particularly bothered by it

How many people would cheer you getting shot and murdered?

It’s not a question we often ask ourselves, but it’s once more on the mind of conservatives lately, as we saw the reaction of the left to the brutal murder of Charlie Kirk, some of them cheering on political assassination.

Now, many (especially on the respectable left — the ones who are able to interact with the right without biting people) are quick to point out we saw none of this from prominent Democrats and say the cheering is just from some fringe weirdoes online. And they add that those fringe weirdoes are very vocal, which always makes them seem a larger group than they are.

Oh, okay. That seems like a decent enough explanation. And thus we set to the work of rooting out these people — called fringe weirdoes by the Democrats and the respectable left themselves — from academia and the military because psychos shouldn’t be in those institutions.

And everyone is happy about this, right? Because these are just a handful of crazy, evil people that don’t represent the Democrats at large, right?

But, no the Democrats are really complaining about this.

Wait, what?
